RPG: The Week from Hell/Continuing Machias Punishment - Page 216

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-14-2002, 11:16 PM

V: Of course not. If I took the plate, you wouldn't have to fend off my lightning fast fork attack. *She went to stab another piece of food, and he casually disarmed her with his own fork* Um, k. Never mind!

**Machias Banshee** · 11-14-2002, 11:19 PM

*Machias watched them for a second before quickly deciding to go somewhere else. She stood up and walked into the hall wordlessly...*

*kyabetsu* · 11-14-2002, 11:20 PM

kya returned. the second set of calzones cooling on the counter and filling the lair with garlic bread scent. she sat back down on the floor and leaning her head against the cooffee table, she stared into space.

kya: i take it this has never happened before....?

*terran631* · 11-14-2002, 11:21 PM

Leo: *chuckles and twirls the fork* A lifetime of practice from keeping my brothers away from my plate. *he looks down at Kya* Well...he had another collapse about a week ago. Just from high blood pressure. I thought Donnie was monitoring him. He said something about it yesterday. *sighs* I dont know..maybe he forgot.

SP: *opens his eyes and smiled at Mike's comment* I was fated to be bested by one of you one day. *he turned to Kame* Do not look so concerned, Child. I am feeling much better.

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-14-2002, 11:26 PM

*Kameko moved closer. He looked tired. He looked incredibly tired and so much more fragile than she had ever seen him. It struck her fully then that how much her mental image of him relied on his spiritual presence, and not his physical one* I'm glad to hear that Master. *it came out only a little above a whisper*

*Vespera sat back and got her own plate of food.* Never had to guard my food from predation by siblings, so you've got one on me there.

**Machias Banshee** · 11-14-2002, 11:31 PM

Mike forced himself to stay confident in his father's words, but felt his stomach shaking again.*
~Twice in two weeks...he cant do this too many more times before something major happens...~ *He tried to stay smiling, but the lower part of his face began to waver, so pulled into a tight small smile.*

Mike: Heh, nah, not yet...Leo was just lucky...nah, it'll be one of the girls drop-kicking you across the dojo...

*kyabetsu* · 11-14-2002, 11:33 PM

kya smiled at Vespera.
Kya; i was the oldest girl... so I got set at the kiddie table and set to carving everybody's servings into bite sized pieces. I have very clear memories of the nest of gaping MOUTHES that was "dinner time"... By the time they were old enough to fend for themselves, i graduated to the grown up table....

kya smiled at the calzone piece she'd been picking at.

kya: that reminds me Vesita... I wanted to ask you something.

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-14-2002, 11:35 PM

*Kameko looked up sharply* Watch it green boy...

Don: NO. No fighting in here. *He moved over and made to usher them out of the room* Splinter needs his rest, so you guys have to clear out for now. You can come back later *he raised his voice just a little to override their protests* But for now, let him sleep. Out...come on, Out! *he herded them out the door*

*Vespera paused before taking her next bite* Shoot Kya.

*terran631* · 11-14-2002, 11:36 PM

SP: *didnt know what was worse. Mike's trying too hard to lighten the mood or everyone elses' haunted expressions. Either way, it was both too much to take at the moment and he was somewhat relieved when Donatello ushered them out the door*

**Machias Banshee** · 11-14-2002, 11:38 PM

*Machias saw the door open, and the two bodies that came stumbling out. She quickly approached Donnie, trying to peek past him as she spoke to him.*

He's okay now? I mean, he's talking and everything?

**Kali** · 11-14-2002, 11:38 PM

*Kali phased back into her empty room. She was actually glad that Raphael wasn't there*

You're going to get in trouble for that.

*she whirled on the dark figure that had followed her* I don't ever want to see you here again.

You can't protect them forever.

Maybe not, but I can do what I can.

*The dark shadow figure bowed its "head" in a nod before disappearing. Kali ran her fingers roughly through her hair and left her room to see how everyone was doing*

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-14-2002, 11:43 PM

*Donatello sighed* Yes Machias, he's better, but he needs to rest for a while. He was coherent, but he's very tired right now

**Machias Banshee** · 11-14-2002, 11:44 PM

*She sighed in relief, and looked at him.*

Thank God. Youre gonna stay with him, i take? You want anything?

*Mike walked away from the infirmary, frowning at Don as he spoke to Kame.*
Great...we both got thrown out...we werent even in there two minutes! I wasnt being mean about you girls getting him... ~jeezum, why the hell cant i say anything right today...~

*kyabetsu* · 11-14-2002, 11:47 PM

kya poked at her calzone some more and looked up at Vespera.

Kya: splinter gave me permission this morning to host my family here for the holiday tomorrow night. I don't know if you know or care about the catholic holidays, but this one is very special. Once a year, the dead and the living can speak freely. (the rest of the words came out in a jumbled rush) AndIwannainviteyouandallmyNEWfamilyandfriendstoMEE Tmyfamliy. Soareyoubusytomorrownight?

*terran631* · 11-14-2002, 11:48 PM

*Splinter heard Donatello at the door and he was right. He was extremely tired. He closed his eyes trying to relax on the not so comfortable bed with the wires everywhere. He chuckled listening to his son checking monitors and writing notes and vaguely wondered just how long he was going to be staying in the infirmary. He was patient and would never give Donatello a hard time about it. His son was no doubt still very scared. Splinter didnt know if it was an attempt to cheer Donatello up or due to fatigue, but he was unable to stop himself from singing very quietly * This is the song that never ends...it goes on and on my friend...

Leo: *frowns at Kya* Kya...I know this is important to you, but with SPlinter sick....I dont know if its still a good idea.

*kyabetsu* · 11-14-2002, 11:52 PM

kya swallowed hard: oh. sorry....

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-14-2002, 11:53 PM

*Vespera frowned as she sorted through the last part of Kya's rather jumbled sentence* I don't have anything planned for tomorrow, I'd love...
*she trailed off as Leo started to speak. She examined Kya's expression. Crestfallen was too mild a word for it. She attempted to subtly kick Leo in the shin. It failed miserably at being subtle*

*Donatello could hear Splinter mumbling something, and moved closer to see what his Sensei wanted. He blinked at the words to what he was singing I didn't think he'd ever have heard of that song He frowned, and chalked it up to after affects of his condition*

**Machias Banshee** · 11-14-2002, 11:55 PM

*She blinked as the door quickly shut again and sighed.*
See you later then...
*She turned back to the living room, praying that everything would be okay....*

*kyabetsu* · 11-14-2002, 11:59 PM

kya saw mike and kameko return to the livingroom. she didn't want to stay there. she took some juice and some calzone for donatello and quietly slipped from the livingroom while Vchan played soccer with Leo's shin.

Kyaexcuse me please.

*terran631* · 11-14-2002, 11:59 PM

Leo: *jumps* Ow! *turns to Vespy* Why did you...*she motions with her head to Kya and Leo sees her expression and sighs feeling like an ass. He gets up to follow her.* Kya Kya wait...Splinter gave you permission already...maybe we can just keep it down. REALLY quiet. We'll talk to Donnie and see what he says. OK? I know this is really important to you. We'll try to work something out.

SP: *closes his eyes and the words trail off as he drifts to sleep*
