Raph shrugged. She'd be back. that was just the way it was around here. He noticed Mike's inattention, and since Raph was done with his skull, he took the opportunity to make good on his threat. His looked sharp. the red on the bandana and the black of the sai whose blades overlapped across the entire back of the head all stood out in screaming contrast with the white of the sugar bone. It was time to share his skilz with Mike. He reached for Mike's and carefully lettered a name across its forehead.
Leo looked up and smiled at Machias. Leo: wow, two days? How'd you manage to get THAT kind of vacation time? kya headed back to the kitchen in a bulky pink sweater. It complimented her coloring, but it dwarfed her frame and only made her hair seem FUZZIER in comparison. she stopped dead in her tracks at the sight of the lady walking down the hallway towards her. |

*She smiled at Leo*
Heh, its not really vacation time...Splinter said i could go and see Cooler's first fight, and I got stuff to do for Enigma. *shrugs* It'll be busy, but i wont mind...heh, you guys'll probly enjoy the quiet, while you have the chance...*grins* *She turned and looked at Mike, who now looked slightly forlorn* Hey, dont get all sad on me, okay? *she hugged him, and kissed his cheek.* Heh, you'd better go and save your skull from Raph's clutches. save mine too, kay? Mike: *groans, smiling* Oh no....*he looked at her, and kissed her cheek* Y'all come back now, ya here? *chuckles*Okay, i will...*slings her other back over her shoulder, takes the medallion from her neck, and reads the back. She starts to glow, and she waves* bye.... *In a small flash of glitter, she was gone, and there was silence.....* |

*Vespera glanced down at herself, worried for a moment that she'd done something stupid like put the dress on inside out. No, everything was where it belonged.* Did I get my make up smudged or something?
*Don sat in the kitchen and relaxed. It was rare to get all four of them in the same room without fights errupting, and he was determined to enjoy it. The minor squabble Raph and Mike were having over Mike's sugar skull did not count as a fight, and the repeated cycle of "Gimme" and "No" formed a background noise that could be tuned out easily.* *Splinter attempted to regain the calm of meditation he had been enjoying, but the peace eluded his grasp. He assumed it was due mostly to the rumbling in his stomach that signified it had been a while since lunch. He unfolded his legs and stood, wincing a little at the soreness in his muscles. He tried not to worry too much about Machias, but it always pained him when his children were away from home. He left his study and made his way through the lair, drawn to the kitchen by the warm smells within, and the sense of family.* *In the darkened study, a breeze stirred the wall hangings, but there were no drafts. Soon Nezumi-san. We shall speak soon.*

*Lianna stepped from the shadow beside the refridgerator and looked around the kitchen. She still had no idea why her niece was so taken with this place. But whatever it was, it must be important to her. Ugh, she would never figure out mortal emotions.*
*She glanced over at the two turtles fighting and pointed a long fingernail at the one in red* You. I need to speak with you. |

Looking up at Vespera in the hallway, Kya felt TWELVE. Vespera shone even in the low light of the hallway: an opal on black velvet. kya stood speachless in her cotton candy pink fuzz and tried to reason with the envy that welled up.
kya(internal) SHE can't help what she looks like any more than YOU can. you wanted to look your best for tonight. well, you DO. she wanted the SAME THING. COPE; you're being STUPID. kya: (hurriedly) no, no, no nothing's smudged Vesita... you do look lovely. you just caught me by surprise's'all.... (she smiled hesitantly and only half joking) it's just not very SPORTING of you ... you'll reduce leo to a green puddle before i get to make introductions. (she laughed, and waving Vespera to follow, started towards the kitchen) The fish needs to broil for 25 minutes or so, and the veggies need to be steamed and i was just gonna serve the whole thing on a bed a rice, so THAT needs cooking too, ... but then we can have dinner and then... well, then it'll be FULLY dark out and they'll BE here... Raph dropped Mike's sugar skull, and spun to face the stranger who had just stepped from beside the fridge. R: what the Fvck?! Leo's reaction was more politely worded but no less startled. L( hand on one of his blades): WHO are you? mike: (moaned softly at the skull he'd caught) AWwww... RAPH! you carved "Goober" onto the forehead! |

*Vespera caught the tone of...envy? In Kya's voice. She came to a snap decision.* Hey Kya, can supper wait...oh fifteen minutes? Tops?

*Vespera grinned.* Wrong? Nothing's wrong. And important is overrated. Come on! She reached for Kya's wrist and tugged her back towards the bedrooms, specifically the one where she'd left her bags

*Lianna placed her hands on her hips, tossing her long black hair over her shoulder* I'm Lianna, Kali's aunt. I'm sure she's mentioned me. *she waved her hand, then pointed at Raphael again* You. I want to know right now why you insist on tormenting my darling niece.

Ves: Girl stuff. *She dragged her into the bedroom, and gestured for her to sit on the edge of the bed. She took one of the shopping bags and upended it beside Kya. Handfuls makup and hair products clattered into a small pile.* You did know there's a certain turtle out there who coloured his thumb purple because he was too busy watching you out of the corner of his eye instead of the skull he was supposed to be decorating, right? Not that you need help, but I don't want to be the only one with a turtle in a bucket tonight.

Raph narrowed his eyes and shook his head in a mix of confusion and out right disbelief.
R: Lady. I ain't been tormen' NO Bo-- M: my skull says "Goober!" R: SHUT UP MIKE! Ok... i ain't been tormen' nobody but HIM. AND why the HELL is it ANY OF your FVCKIN BUSINESS ANYWAY? Kya blushed pinker than her sweater. kya: he did?! ... i mean.. i know he likes me... he told me so.. kinda-- he didn't really say but... i mean he couldn't've meant anything else.... BUT i didn't SEE him paint his thumb!! (she smiled and then looked like she was about to burst into tears) but WHY Vesita?! WHAT am I supposed TO DO?! i mean i don't want it to stop, but ... he's bound to realize that the scars don't STOP at my farmer's tanlines... HECK... they make ME sick to look at... i'm only gonna scare him off! and he's so sweet.... |

*Lianna poked Raph in the beak* She's my family, and that makes it very much my business. You have no idea what that girl has gone through to be with you. You have no idea how lucky you are. She's far too good for you, and what it is she sees in you, I have no idea. *she stood back, placing her hands back on her hips* Well, what do you have to say for yourself?

Raph's jaw was throbbing as he ground his teeth. He was getting a finger waggled at him from a COMPLETE STRANGER. ABOUT **** THAT THIS DEMON BITCH had NO RIGHT TALKING ABOUT-- LET ALONE IN FRONT OF HIS BROTHERS.
R: (growling) SHUT THE FVCK UP, AUNTIE HELLSPAWN. YOU HAVE NO FVCKING IDEA WHAT THE FVCK YOU'RE TALKIN' ABOUT. GIT YER IMMORTAL BITCH-ASS OUTTA MY FVCKIN' HOUSE. NOW. |

*Vespera paused in her perusal of the make up, and dropped down onto her heels so she was at eye height with Kya on the bed.* I think he's made of sterner stuff than that Kya. He told you he liked you? I'm betting that was pretty recent. After he'd seen at least some of your scars. I doubt they matter to him. If you take a close look, I'm betting he wears his fair share of scars to. I know Leo does. *She looked in Kya's eyes, completely open.* You're a very beautiful girl Kyabetsu. The scars don't detract from that in the least. And if he's as sweet as you say, they won't scare him off.

*Lianna snapped* I know exactly what's going on! And I know a lot more than you do about it! You foolish, selfish little mortal. *she turned around, throwing her hands in the air* Why my niece would bond herself to anyone willingly, let alone someone like you, is beyond me. Such a horrid form of enslavement.

Mike looked at the lady posturing in their kitchen. She was chewing Raph out about Kali.
M: (internal) we ain't gonna have a ktichen LEFT when the dust settles. some of her words caught his attention M: BOND? ENSLAVEMENT? RAPH! i never knew you and Kali were into the kinky stuff... Leo slugged Mike in the arm. L: SHUT up (to Liana) um, Ma'am? can i get you and Raph to move this to the Living Room? I think you both should have SOME kind of privacy... Mike's not OLD enough for this kind of argument.... M: HEY! AM TOO! Raph didn't acknowledge Leo's suggestion. He grabbed Liana by the wrist FIRMLY and dragged her away from his brothers and their slaw-jawed stares. HE let go when they were inside the living room. R: So, NOW what the FVCK are you BABBLING about?! |
