LaRae sat quietly for a moment and just sighed. "Don't even bother telling me anything else about it." She half muttered. " 'It doesn't matter' right? So there is no point in telling me something that doesn't matter." She didn't bother looking over at him even now. She sighed heavily. "...You were going to bed weren't you?" She asked slightly annoyed all over again and trying to change the subject. She had wanted to know why he never took the bandanna off, but apparently not everyone was as forthcoming with personal information as she was.

Aamori Shook her head. "I can't believe you'd get upset over me saying Lani might think of you as a bird. I thought you would've flipped your lid over me saying you looked like a girl." She said in a mellow tone. "And there is nothing wrong with your wings, they just need more attention then mine." She paused. "At least your wings can't rip like mine. Try mending ripped skin... It's nearly impossible. Not to mention I don't use mine very often so they're incredibly weak..." She muttered remembering just how hard it had been for her to fly that measly fifteen minutes to get to this house. If anything her wings were only good for covering up with. At least that's how she felt about them.

Nanashi looked down at LaRae for a moment and narrowed his eyes slightly, starting to get a little annoyed himself. He didn't see why she had to act mad at him for not showing her what was under the bandanna. If he hadn't had to see her bare back when she hurt herself then he doubted that she would have told him about the mark on her back. He sighed and finally reached up to his head without saying a word to answer her and jerked the bandanna off of his head. His hair immediately fell over his forehead, though it parted almost perfectly right in the center, revealing what he'd tried to hide so carefully under the black cloth. In the center of his forehead the vertical crease that had been partially visible before opened to reveal a dazzling golden eye with a single black slit down the center for the pupil like a cat's eye that opened the wrong way. He tossed the bandanna into her lap as soon as it was off and turned his ruby eyes away from her just enough to stare down at the sheets on the bed. "...Satisfied?" he asked quietly, without looking up. His golden eye was fixed on her chest, almost as if it was trying to stare tight into her soul, but he couldn't bring the other pair up to meet her. He was afraid to look around to much... there was no telling who or what else was in this room besides them, and he didn't want to know. "That's that's what I've been hiding." He finally just closed all but the one eye, since he could only close it when he covered it with something. It never even blinked. He was waiting to hear what he didn't want to hear. He was waiting to hear how freakish it was, either from her mouth or her thought... whenever the eye was trained on something, it was hard to hide anything. One with the eye could see anything for what it really was and hear the thoughts that lay beneath one's sugarcoated words. That was another reason that he covered it...he didn't want to hear what else people thought about him that they wouldn't say.

Celestine rolled his eyes slightly. "Me being called a bird is like you being called a snake." he said simply, "It's kind of annoying." He glanced over to her and smirked slightly, "No, I don't have to worry about ripping the skin... I have to worry about hunters trapping me and slaughtering me for my body parts." he said in a disgusted tone. He'd had to make a run for it from more than one little group of humans that thought bits and peaces of him would catch a pretty penny. "Apparently dragon feathers are rare to find on the market for those low lifes. I suppose they make prettier quills or something..I don't know what they do with them."

LaRae hadn't lifted her eyes right away though she was having trouble keeping them glued to the ground considering he'd tossed his bandanna into her lap. She lifted her hand gently and picked up the bandanna, holding it tightly in her hand. Of course she was still a bit annoyed considering the way he had reacted to her tone. She sighed heavily, trying to just let go of her frustration. "...Why should I be satisfied... You said it didn't matter..." She mumbled her eyes still locked on the bandanna in her hands. It took her a few moments of debating with herself to even pull her eyes away from the black cloth. She was nearly hell bent on not looking, just because he hadn't wanted to show what was under the bandanna; Yet her curiosity was slowly getting the better of her. She sighed softly and rather timidly brought her eyes up finally to look at what she'd inadvertently pestered him into showing her. She just stared blankly for a moment, not sure she was seeing what she was actually seeing. Was that really a third eye? She shook her head for a moment, shut her eyes; Waited a moment and then opened them again. Sure enough, she was seeing correctly. She couldn't help but sit up on her knees and look at it only a little closer. "...The 'All Seeing' Eye... It dates back to the ages of creation..." She mumbled slightly. "...All the way back to the first days that 'Earth' was even made... The early steps of the birth of Arienh..." She paused, still staring at it of course. She wasn't put off by the eye, more surprised then anything. She smiled faintly. "...I was told by another one of my Elders that these no longer existed in this realm..." Believe it or not she used to be close to one of the older Elders who passed, she spent a lot of time talking with him about the beginning of creation. It was an interesting topic, to say the least. She finally stopped gawking at the eye and gently lifted her hands from her lap and started to place his bandanna back in place, back the way he had it; At least to the best of her ability. She sat back and rested her hands back in her lap. "...I don't think that is anything to be ashamed of, Nanashi..."

Aamori nodded slightly. "Well, I won't call you a bird again since you've agreed to not call me a snake." She said quietly before glancing over at him briefly. "Humans are by far the strangest creatures on all of Arienh..." She paused. "...I wouldn't be surprised to see humans use dragon feathers for something silly like pillow fillings..." She sighed softly. "You aren't the only one to be fleeing from trappers you know. It's probably not as frequent, but they do tend to come after dragons with skin like mine. Even just for scales... Apparently they can make nice jewelry..." She shook her head slightly. "No offense to any dragon, but it's a sad day when a dragon gets caught by a mere human..."

Nanashi just sat there with his eyes closed until she started mumbling about the 'all-seeing' eye. He opened his eyes slowly and raised them halfway, too wary to bring them all the way to her face. He hadn't heard anything about any all-seeing eye. All he knew that was he than three eyes and one of them was blind to the physical plain that the others saw and could only see beyond it. He was silent as she put the bandanna back into place, though as soon as the eye was covered again his entire body seemed to relax as if every muscle in his body had been tense until then. "...I...I'm not...ashamed..." he said quietly, looking away. "It's just...I can't stand seeing with it..." he shivered once and crossed his arms over his chest. "...There are others...in the west that have them... I think... My...my aunt told me once about them... But I never met one. The closest thing that I can think to call them is...a shaman. Their eye lets them see past the physical plain and into the spirit world...and the 'world of truth.' ...She also said that the eyes that see the physical plain are either purged with fire or sewn shut so that they will be blind to deception..." he glanced back up to her slowly for just a moment and then looked away. "...I'm just a half breed, so I doubt they would even care if they did know, but... even still, I'd rather not chance it."

Celestine huffed, "I know I'm not the only one trying to avoid them. There is a reason that Amphipteres are all but extinct. Humans will hunt whatever they can get a hold of, and they travel in packs like wolves... Sometimes they're hard to avoid, especially i all you have to defend yourself with in your true form are teeth. They don't care what they're doing... it's just a game to them." He glanced over to her again and looked over her tail. "...I guess your scales might make a nice necklace...to them at least. They are pretty."

LaRae nodded after listening to what he said; She hadn't known too much about the actual abilities of the eye. She only really learned how far it dated back and that was it. She hadn't had the chance to go into too much detail over the topic with the Elder she had been talking to, unfortunately. She gave a soft sigh hearing the last part of what he had to say and then she shook her head slightly. "...You don't have to go showing everyone, I didn't ask you to. I just wanted to know why you never took off your bandanna." She stated quietly. "Now I know. So you don't have to go taking that off again unless you want to..." She glanced over at him and smiled very faintly. "...Thank you though, for sharing that with me..." She mumbled before looking away again.

Aamori sighed and shut her eyes for a moment. "...I wouldn't know really, when it comes to how the human's hunt and trap. I've rarely been allowed to leave well watched area's because of my title, for lack of better words." She paused, opening her eyes now. "I can imagine though, from hearing other people's stories." When he said that her scales were pretty she couldn't help but smile softly; Her tail came to rest on her leg gently. "I suppose they are nice looking... I've seen a lot prettier ones..." She sighed softly again. "...I'm not even sure what humans could possibly make with scales, or feathers for that matter. Though, that's probably because I can't look at it the same way they do." She curled her body slightly while still laying on her side and yawned a little. She extended her one wing and let it drape over her like a blanket before glancing back over at Celestine for a moment.

Nanashi glanced back to LaRae slowly and just looked at her silently. "...So it...doesn't...bother you?" he asked quietly. He'd have always thought most girls would be disgusted by it, or just freaked out by it's abilities. He raised his hands to his head to adjust the bandanna a little and make sure that it was on snugly and then turned back to look at her. Aside from his mother and aunt, LaRae was the only one that had ever known about the eye. Now he just hoped that he could keep it that way. He smiled weakly after a moment and then added, "Oh...by the way...your true form is as pretty as this one." he said quietly. That was what he saw when he was looking at her, though it was more like an overlaid image.

Celestine shrugged slightly. "Who knows... There are several things that they hunt for... Scales can be made into armor since they're so strong, or decoration... other things they use for supposedly medicinal purposes. ...There's no telling what they could come up with." He said simply. "...The hydra in my territory were nearly weeded completely out a long time ago. One of them was my great, grandfather. The Hyrda are some of the most poisonous dragons there are, but apparently they were good for making antidotes with..." He shook his head, looking a little annoyed, and then glanced back to Aamori again. He half smiled and sighed, "Sorry. I'm talking to much. Go back inside, you look tired."

LaRae looked at him and shook her head lightly. "No, it doesn't really bother me." She said simply. She probably could have easily been freaked out by it, but considering that she'd previously spoken to someone about the third eye and was informed of it's existence she wasn't really put off by it. Though, getting used to knowing Nanashi had that third eye was going to take some getting used to; But that would be expected. She smiled softly. "You know, that third eye is golden... like mine." She glanced away slowly when she heard him talk about her true form. She had a very faint smile on her face; It wasn't very often that she heard any positive comments about her true form, let alone the one she was in right now. She wasn't really sure how to respond to what he said. "...Um..." She paused. "...Thank you..." She said quietly.

Aamori smiled slightly and gently shook her head 'no'. "You're not talking too much." She said simply. "It's nice to hear what you have to say, even if the topic is a little unsettling." Truth was just talking about human hunters bothered her slightly. She wouldn't dare announce it but when it came to hunters she was actually a little afraid of them; Especially from the different stories that she'd heard. She brushed the thought aside for now and looked at Celestine. "...I'll be fine right here, if you don't mind." She said quietly. She curled herself a little tighter so that most of her was covered by her wing. "...Besides I don't want to take a chance of falling down if I try to go back in the way I came out..."

Nanashi smiled slightly when she didn't seem to know what to say to his comment. He blinked when she told him that the eye was golden. "It is? ...I always thought it was white...like it was glowing or something. That's how it looked when I saw it." He said simply. Of course he was seeing the eye though the eye's view. He finally reached over to her again and just wrapped his arms around her tightly, leaning his head against hers. He was relieved that she didn't seem to mind that he had that other eye. "Thank you..." he said quietly, "I'm glad...it doesn't bother you." he said softly.

Celestine chuckled softly and shook his head at the idea of her trying to climb back through the window and falling. "...No...I don't guess I mind." he said softly. "...It's just...I don't really like to be around people when I sleep." he said softly, "I guess you know why... I'm not sure, but I think that...thing that I do has to do with how close I am to someone who can hear me..." He glanced over to her for a moment and sighed softly. "...So do you still want to stay up here? I don't want to upset you again if I have another dream... Or I can go somewhere else if you want."

LaRae smiled again softly when he wrapped his arms around her and shut her eyes gently when he leaned his head against hers. "...I don't see why it should bother anyone, but I suppose not everyone has an open mind about such things..." She opened her eyes slowly, with a faint smile still plastered across her face. "...And yes, it was golden... by no means did it look white." She paused for a moment. "...And not that I want to break up this touchy moment we're having but I think it's getting really late...." She mumbled quietly. At the rate their conversation was going they could probably very easily be up all night talking about his third eye.

Aamori looked over at him when he started to bring up the thing that he did when he slept. She'd fortunately forgotten about it, until he brought it up. So much had gone on today that she completely pushed that nightmare from her mind and in an instant it was back. She shut her eyes tightly for a few moments to try and block out the images. She reopened her eyes then averted them. She sighed softly. "...I'd still like to stay here... regardless." She paused and finally looked over at him. "And you don't have to leave. Should it happen again, it'll be my fault this time... Alright?"

Nanashi just closed his own eyes while she spoke. He could see why it would bother other people... for one to him it just looked creepy, and he highly doubted that anyone would want him looking at them with it. He smiled slightly when she said that it was getting late and nodded slightly, finally pulling back a little. "Yes...I guess we'd best sleep." he agreed. He hugged her tightly one more time and then released her again and slipped back onto his side of the bed. He sighed and laid down again, slipping down under the covers again and curled up on his side. "...Good night."

Celestine looked at her for a moment and then nodded slightly. "...Alright... if you say so." he said simply as he rolled onto his side, facing away from her. He curled up slightly and folded one wing over his head to avoid being blinded by the light when the sun rose. "...Sweet dreams..." he said softly. He just hoped that he wouldn't have any tonight. He didn't want to bother Aamori with anything else as far as that was concerned. He closed his eyes and finally started to try to get to sleep.

LaRae sighed softly and watched as he got back into bed. She sat for a moment just stareing at him with a blank expression on her face; Though a soft smile slowly crept it's way across her lips. She finally moved and pulled herself up from the bed, stretching her arms up over her head for a moment before turning back to face the bed. She gave another soft sigh before reaching down to move the covers slightly so she could crawl into bed too. She didn't have very many options on how she was going to sleep. On her back was entirely out of the question still; On her stomach? No, she couldn't sleep like that it would be far too uncomfortable even in a soft bed. She'd have to lay on her side like she'd been doing for the past several nights. She sat herself down on her side of the bed and pulled the covers up a little before finally deciding that it would be easier to just sleep on her side facing his back. She smiled slightly and started to lay down moving over a little closer to him then she probably should have, but she wasn't touching him. She laid there for a moment with her eyes shut, then moved even closer to him. This time the fact that they were touching couldn't be avoided. She'd slipped her arm around him gently and nuzzled her head against the back of his shoulder blade. Her eyes were still shut even when she went to speak. "...I hope you sleep well, Nanashi..." She mumbled quietly before gently nuzzling him again.

Aamori merely closed her eyes and curled up a little tighter. "...Good night." She said quietly as she stifled a yawn. She was incrediably tired still, so it wouldn't take her very long to fall asleep.

Nanashi had already closed his eyes, but he opened them again when he felt her snuggle against him. He smiled slightly and raised his hand to rest on her arm. "...You, too." he whispered softly as he closed his eyes again. He snuggled his cheek into the pillow and sighed softly as he drifted off to sleep. It wasn't too hard after today, and he hadn't even really done anything.

"Good night." He said softly. It wasn't too long before he'd drifted off to sleep himself.
Hours after he'd fallen asleep, images started to floor his mind again, though these came in the form of an actual dream rather than the memory of an event that had already occurred.

He was in a large, dense forest filled with vines and foliage. It was day, but the leaves were so dark and thick that it almost seemed to be night. He was alone at the moment, but he seemed rather lost as he looked around. "...A forest?" he muttered quietly. He finally started to move forward slowly, his eyes traveling all around him. Suddenly, a shrill, somewhat musical sound ran through the forest. It almost sounded like his pipe, though it was much higher pitched. He blinked and turned around quickly, just in time to see something long slide through the trees, well behind it. It almost looked like a giant snake. He heard the sound again front in front of him this time, and closer, and spun around again only to come face to face with a giant set of emerald eyes with slitted golden pupils set in a deep green scaled face.
Out of nowhere, his vision changed from and seemed to zoom into the other pair of eyes and then speed through the forest until it came to what looked like a broken down stone temple, though there was hardly even a rood left on it anymore. The entire are was covered in what looked like a sort of mist that hovered close to the ground. His vision remained focused on the entrance for just a moment, long enough to notice some almost completely faded out symbols around the top of the door. Seconds later a sound came, though it was more the sound of something moving. His vision snapped back to his other location again, and the giant pair of eyes was gone. He stood stone still for a moment then his ear twitched t the sound of something behind him. He spun around quickly just in time to see massive fangs dripping with either saliva or venom bearing down upon him.

"AHH!!" Celestine bolted upright, trowing his arm over his head as if to protect himself. He blinked when he didn't fell anything, and then opened his eyes and looked around slowly. Just a dream... he thought in relief before dropping his head and sighing heavily as he tried to get his breathing regulated again. He raised his hand to his chest just to feel how hard his heart was pounding. "..."

LaRae was barely awake long enough to hear anything else that was said. Thankfully it wasn't much that she'd have missed. She hadn't realised just how tired she was until she actually laid down. Apparently using the magic she had earlier took a little more out of her then she thought.

Aamori had no trouble sleeping once she actually fell asleep. She got quite a good couple hours of sleep in before being startled by the dream that Celestine was having. Through the course of the dream her heart rate increased considerably and she'd rolled completely over onto her other side rather violently; As if she was trying to wake herself up yet again. Though, hearing Celestine's sudden loud cry made her eyes shoot open. She just laid there for a moment trying to relax a little before sitting up. She let her wing move gently and rest behind her again before shifting slightly so she could see Celestine. She gave a soft sigh as her breathing and heart slowly started to regulate. She let her eyes rest on him for only a moment before turning them away. "...Are you alright?" She paused. "...Have a bad dream?" She asked quietly trying to act as if she hadn't witnessed it too.

Celestine just sat there for a few moments without responding, almost as if he hadn't heard her. His mind was elsewhere at the moment. "...Shariah..." he whispered so quietly that Aamori would probably have trouble hearing him. That name was the only thing that he was able to make out on the top of the door frame. It sounded so familiar, but he could not for the life of him remember where he'd heard it. After a moment he looked up, turning his head back to face Aamori. "...No." he said quietly, "...Just a dream..." he looked away again, turning his eyes on the sky. Shariah... was that...the serpent? ...It's eyes were like mine. Why do these things always have to come in riddles? I don't understand... He sighed heavily and ran his fingers back through his hair once. Oh well...I guess it doesn't matter. He frowned when his fingers caught a tangle in his silky jade hair. I really need to wash my hair... He shook his head and crossed his arms behind him before laying back down again. "...Go back to sleep."

Aamori merely stared at him with the best blank look she could muster. She would have loved to have started asking questions but considering how quiet he was being about it she decided against it. Not to mention it would completely give her away, she was trying to act as if she hadn't shared his dream; Yet again. She sighed softly when she heard him say 'go back to sleep' She couldn't help thinking that response was a little cold considering she was concerned for him. She shook her head slightly and laid back down, rolling onto her side facing away from him. She wasted no time at all extending her wing and draping it over herself again. She didn't utter a single word, and for the most part did as she was told. She shut her eyes and sighed one last time before trying to fall back asleep.

Celestine glanced over to Aamori after a moment and then sighed softly, closing his own eyes. He wasn't really as bothered by that dream as he was about the ones that were from his childhood, but still it was a bit creepy. He wasn't quite sure what to make of it, so it was a little bothersome. He sighed again, turning his attention back over to Aamori again for a moment and then shook his head. He could tell she was a little put off at him at the moment, though he really wasn't sure why. "...Sorry." he muttered before turning his eyes back to the sky. He didn't plan to go back to sleep tonight. Even though she hadn't said anything he thought she might have seen it as well...though even if she hadn't he didn't want to chance it again on round two. He sighed and forced himself to keep his eyes open so that at least one of them could get some sleep tonight.

Aamori again didn't say anything, though her eyes did open a crack when she heard him apologise. She laid there for a moment debating with herself before she sat up once again. She didn't bother looking over at him as she stood up and dusted herself off. She sighed softly and started to glance over to him, but stopped. "...I'm going to go sleep somewhere else..." She muttered walking over to the edge of the roof. She stood there for a moment and let her wings fall from her back. She didn't say anything else before she just stepped off the edge of the roof and let herself drop down to the ground. Her wings just barely caught her in time and when she hit the ground she fell down to one knee. She kept to her one knee for a moment before standing up; Her knee of course now had a nice little scrape on it but that was all. Her wings folded gently behind her and she glanced around not exactly sure where she should go, or how far to go. She gave a soft sigh and just started walking. She would probably have gone inside the house, even back to the tub she had been in but that was still close to the roof and she wanted both of them to be able to sleep and instead of being the reason that he didn't sleep she removed herself completely. She finally stopped walking when she noticed a dark lump on the ground; It took her a minute to realize that it was Nero. "...Guess I wasn't the first one with this idea..." She mumbled before turning and moving away from him. She kept the same distance from the house as Nero but moved to the side so that she was out far enough for Nero also. The last thing she wanted was to wake up near him and have him be grumpy. She stopped again and this time sat down and stared at the scrape on her knee. She shook her head lightly and then just let herself fall backwards so she could stare at the sky for awhile.

Celestine looked over to Aamori again when she got up and sat up again. "Aam--" he started and then sighed, shaking his head. He watched her step off of the roof, a little worried at the way that she did it. He didn't want her to hurt herself trying to get away from him. He sat there for a moment and then sighed, shaking his head as he moved toward the edge of the roof and looked over, trying to see where she was going. Once she got out of his sight he just sighed and moved back again to lay down on his side again. He sighed and closed his eyes again, folding his wing back over his head again. He just lay there quietly, trying to get back to sleep again since she left. He really hated that she felt like she had to go all the way out there. He could have flown out there a lot easier than she could.
It took him a little while, but finally he dozed off again, this time remaining dreamless.

Aamori laid on the ground just staring up at the night sky. She flinched suddenly feeling a stinging sensation come from her knee; The scrape had just started to bleed a little. It didn't look bad, and the pain was very faint but nonetheless it bothered her. She hadn't had very many injuries of any kind, so even something this small on her soft skin annoyed her. She sat up and reached for her staff; Patting the side of her leg for a moment before letting herself fall backwards again. "...Wonderful..." She muttered now remembering that she'd removed the holster and the staff and set them on the bathroom floor next to her sandals. "...That's a great place for that damn staff to be..." She was more angry at herself for being stupid enough to leave it behind; It was supposed to be attached to her at all times, or at least within a hands distance. So now she'd have to live with this scrape at least until morning, when she could get back to that last little bit of water in her staff. She wasn't lying when she said it was 'Special'. That water, having been properly purified could heal just about any water dragon's surface wounds. It could also help restore energy and prolong the ability to fight if need be. It was actually capable of quite a bit, but it only ever did any good in the hands of a water dragon; Or perhaps the hands of someone with healing magic. Though not very many people knew that about the water. She heaved a heavy sigh and shut her eyes, then rolled over onto her side trying to avoid as many of the small rocks as she possibly could in the process. It took her a while longer then before to get back to sleep, but she did eventually.

It was early in the morning when Celestine awoke again. Even with his feathers over his eyes the sun still managed to wake up. He sat up and stretched out, cracking a few bones in the process before shaking himself out and flexing his wings. He looked down for a moment and gathered his flute and the uneaten fruit and tucked both back into his bag, though he left it where it was for now. He looked out int he direction that Aamori had gone again and sighed softly, shaking his head. After another moment he took a run toward the edge of the roof, spreading his wings as he leaped off of the roof and glided forward, flapping his wings a few times to remain airborne until he noticed Aamori. Finally, he descended to the ground slowly a few feet from where she was laying. He tilted his head slightly as he walked over to her slowly and knelt down beside her. The scrape on his knee was the first thing that he noticed. He shook his head again and sighed. "Clumsy..." he muttered quietly as his ears laid back a little.

Nanashi was still laying in the bed where he'd gone to sleep, but he was already awake as well. He started to get up but since LaRae was still holding him he just stayed still so that he didn't wake her. He tried to turn his head to look back to her again and just smiled weakly. While he had a chance he really wanted to try to get cleaned up a little. Lake water and no soap really only served to get most of the dirt off of him, and with the way that LaRae kept getting so close to him, he was starting to feel a little self conscious about his appearance.

Hikari was still dead asleep in the guest room. She was normally up really early on days that she hit the sack at a decent hour and had somewhere nice to sleep, but she was still really worn out from the day before.

Aamori at this point didn't wake as easily as most others would when the sun hit them. She merely lifted her arm in her sleep to rest it over her eyes and then continued sleeping as if she hadn't moved at all. Her ears twitched very slightly from the sound of Celestine's voice, but she didn't wake just yet.

LaRae when given a comfortable place to sleep was rather hard to wake. A prime example was the first night at the festival grounds, it took Aamori yelling rather loudly just to get her out of the bed. She absently nuzzled close to Nanashi once more while sleeping, then rather slowly released her grasp on him. She pulled her hand back and rested it on her own side.

Through the course of the night Kyran had at least managed to regain his consciousness. He was still completely too tired to move, though he was finally responsive. If spoken to he would probably open his eyes and try to speak, then fail miserably before going right back to sleep. He was however feeling better, just barely and with little to no pain unless he moved too much. He was now laying on his side, with his back exposed. The blanket his sister had covered him with was tossed off the side of the bed and now laying on the floor. His tail had also come uncurled as he'd relaxed in the bed; It was not resting off the other side of the bed and onto the floor. The sheer length of his tail was incredible and not easily noticed since he'd usually kept it curled up behind him all the time.

Celestine watched Aamori for a moment and then shook his head slightly. Her with wings and she still managed to hurt herself stepping off of a roof. She must not have been kidding when she said that they really weak. He did feel just a little bad for running her off, though. He really did need to learn to control his ability, but when he was asleep it was near impossible for him to do. It was hard enough when he was awake. After a moment he reached over, placing his hand over the scrape on her knee and stared at it. After a few seconds a pale green aura emitted from his hand as he silently mouthed the words to one of his native chants. Slowly the skin should begin to mend itself the way he'd done Hikari's leg, though this was much less serious so it took very little of his energy to accomplish.

Nanashi smiled slightly when he felt LaRae nuzzle him again. Once she finally released him to where he could move he rolled over to look at her for a moment. She was so adorable while she was sleeping. Finally he pushed himself up again and stood from the bed, stretching out his wings part of the way and his arms. He then finally tiptoed his way to the door and slipped out into the hallway. He guessed Minako may mot mind if he cleaned up a little, if so...well sometimes it was just easier to get forgiveness than permission. As he glanced down the hallway his eyes rested on Kyran's door again and soon he found himself standing right in front of it. He was still a little worried about him and wondered how he was fairing. After a couple of minutes he mustered up the courage to open the door to check in on him. He was a little surprised to see him laying on his side rather than his stomach, but relieved as well. At least he could move a little it seemed. He slowly stepped a little further into the room and then edged forward until he was standing next to the bed. He looked down at him for a moment and then reached out to gently place his hand on his arm. "...Kyran?" he nearly whispered, "...I hope you are better soon..." He said softly. He didn't think he was awake yet and he wasn't too sure he'd appreciate his sympathies if he was so he just tried to stay pretty quiet. "...I'm sorry...I couldn't do anything to help..."

Aamori still didn't wake right away, in fact she didn't even start to open her eyes until after the scrape on her knee was practically no longer visible. Her eyes slid open and she blinked a couple times before even noticing how close Celestine was to her. She was startled by him being there and sat up quickly, then scooted back away from him a little. She stared at him for a moment and then looked away. "...What are you doing out here...?" She half muttered. She was pretty sure that she'd walked far enough away from him and the house, so she was slightly curious to know why he even bothered coming all the way out here.

Now that LaRae had the entire bed to herself she'd practically sprawled out on it. She'd rolled over onto her back with no pain what so ever and taken over the whole bed; A good indication that she was sleeping well. She was pretty good at being able to share a bed, but given the chance she'd take all the room for herself.

Kyran was motionless for awhile, even a few moments after Nanashi touched his arm. He'd woken relatively easily but didn't open his eyes; He just continued to lay there comfortably. He was rather surprised to know that Nanashi had come in to see him. He thought that Nanashi might still be upset with him from their last conversation. "...D-don't... worry... ab-bout... it..." He mumbled quietly before forcing his eyes open a crack. It took a few moments for his eyes to adjust but they soon came to rest on Nanashi. He managed a weak smile once before his eyes shut and he fell back asleep.

Minako had been awake for a short period of time, only long enough to get out of bed, make it and then get dressed. She sat on the edge of her bed and slipped her boots on. She gave a soft sigh and stood from her bed stretching her arms slightly before heading for her door. She slid it open quietly, knowing there were others in the house and she didn't want to wake anyone. She happened to glance over and notice that her brothers bedroom door was open. She quirked a brow slightly wondering who had gone inside; She was pretty sure anyway that someone else had gone in, she didn't think that Kyran would be in any shape to be up on his feet after just one day. She moved quietly over to his door and peeked inside for only a second; Long enough to see Nanashi and then backed away. She smiled softly and then proceeded to head down stairs to the living room. She passed by the bookshelf and grabbed one without even looking and then sat down on the couch and opened the book; Then began reading. The book was rather small and clearly quiet damaged from age. The title was no longer legible; but the contents was of ancient history of the thunder territory. Usually this would probably be a boring read, but not when you're trying to learn everything about your Clan's past.

Nero of course had woken nearly the instant that the blinding sun hit him. To him the sun practically burned his skin; Though that wasn't the case. Directly, it caused a slight crawling sensation over his bare skin; Which was easily enough ignored. He really preferred his territory over this or any other. At least there the sun wasn't so blinding and didn't agitate the skin. He'd pulled himself up from the ground, dusted himself off and had started to walk back towards the house. Though he liked the silence way out here he definitely preferred having somewhere with shade to sit.

Celestine blinked when Aamori scooted away from him. The glow faded from his hand when she moved and his ceased chanting abruptly. "...I came to see where you ended up." he said simply. "...I'm awake now so I thought you may want to come back now. It can't be comfortable out here." he added. He stood up and looked down at her, extending his hand to her to help her up if she wanted it.

Nanashi pulled his hand back a little when Kyran started to speak, for a moment thinking that he was going to tell him not to touch him. When he just told him not to worry about it he placed it back again slowly and tried to return his smile. He wasn't upset with Kyran, he was pretty much over it by the next morning. He knew he hadn't really meant to upset him, it just kind of happened as it did often. He nodded slightly before Kyran's eyes closed again and sighed softly. He glanced down to the night stand for a moment and noticed the ointment that Hikari had apparently left in there. His eyes wandered over Kyran again and he saw where someone had put the stuff on his chest over the burns. Considering that he'd placed him down on his back he somehow doubted that anyone got his back while they were at it. He pulled his hand back again and slowly moved around the bed to look at the burns on his back. He didn't see anything on them. He hesitated for a moment and then moved back around to get the ointment before coming back around to his back. He figured the stuff would need to be applied there as well, and there was no telling when Hikari would get up. She'd been pretty worn out last night so he didn't anticipate her being up anytime soon. He knelt down on the floor and opened the ointment then got some on his hand and very light started to rub it over the burns on his back. He was trying to be gentle and not hurt him or wake him again.

Aamori reached up and took his hand; Getting to her feet quickly. She let go of his hand as soon as she was upright again and then started to dust herself off. She sighed softly; He was right about at least one thing, it wasn't very comfortable all the way out here on the rocks. Through the course of the night she'd ended up quickly regretting ever leaving that bath tub. She could've just stayed in that water, slept well and recovered nearly all of her energy; But no... She wanted to sit with Celestine. She shook her head softly. She glanced over at him briefly. "...I suppose I could come back now..." She paused and looked away; Back towards the house. "...I needed to get something I left in the bath room anyway." She said nonchalantly; Trying to seem unconcerned that her staff was just laying in her holster on the floor. She for the most part believed that she could trust most of the group not to walk off with the staff, though her main concern was that someone might recognise it. She turned on her heel and started to walk back towards the house, not bothering to wait for Celestine; She was pretty sure that he'd catch up to her.

Kyran's ears laid back slightly when Nanashi started to put the ointment on the burn on his back. He was clearly still asleep, but able to feel a little pain from someone touching it; Even if it was lightly. He wouldn't wake again quite that easily. Though, he'd wake again should his name be called; Otherwise he was going to rest.

Nero finally made it back to the house. He stopped near the front door and glanced around the house; Surprised to not see that wind dragon on the roof still. He knew that boy had been up there, the flute was part of the reason he'd left in the first place. The whereabouts of the boy mattered little to him; along with the whereabouts of any of the others. Though he did like a place with few people so that he could relax. The sun was still beating down on him and making him quite irritable. Ordinarily he might have stayed outside, but today the sun was just too much. He sighed heavily and finally opened the front door to the house and headed inside. He stopped immediately once he was through the door and let his dark eyes rest on the small girl sitting on the couch with a book. He hadn't really payed attention earlier, but if he could remember correctly he thought he overheard someone talking about Kyran having a little sister. Since the girl clearly had the same color wings and tail, not to mention the same color hair; She must have been related to that reckless man. He stared at the girl for a moment out of the corner of his eye. He didn't move, merely stood at the door with his hands crossed over his chest.

Minako barely lifted her pale eyes from her book when she heard the door open. She only lifted them long enough to see the dark figure who'd walked in. She remembered seeing him with the others, so she wasn't alarmed by his demeanor. Though, him just standing there with that emotionless look on his face, staring at her was making it a little harder to concentrate on her reading. She finally set the book down in her lap, keeping her finger on the page as a place mark and sighed heavily. "Don't just stand there staring at me like a dumb-ass, come in and sit down somewhere." She stated in an oddly abrasive tone. She didn't take too kindly to being interrupted like that. She easily could have ignored him if he hadn't just been standing there staring at her like that.
