RPG: The Week from Hell/Continuing Machias Punishment - Page 239

Mike: *Damn. He turned to Kya with an innocent smile. Somehow any excuse he could come with some would sound both lame and terribly childish. He looked at Raph and then back to Kya's chiding face and threw his hands up in surrender tossing the box into a trash can* Not worth cleaning the bathroom to embarrass Leo anyway.

*kyabetsu* · 11-18-2002, 01:34 PM

kya's frown melted.
kya: thank you mike.

she keep right on melting, until she was a seated pile on the floor near Raphael. He eyed her warily.
R: what?

She smiled at him and then studied her foot.
Kya: i wanted to ask you something Raph. You don't need to answer right away or at all really, but just so that you know i wanted to include you. (she took a deep breath) My family's coming to visit tomorrow night, and i wanna introduce you to them.

R: ...
(he considered that)
R: ... Splinter know about this?...

kya: yes, he gave permission both before and after the--
(raph waved to shut her up, he didn't really want to think about splinter's collapse.)
R: fine. sure. s'long as they know when to go home.
He got up and left. Marching up the stairs, before she do anything more than nod.

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-18-2002, 04:21 PM

*Vespera accepted the cards back from Leo, and tucked them back into the recesses of her purse.* So Splinter, is there anything I can bring with me when I come back tomorrow?

*Don worked at his bench for a few minutes, then piped up.* Hey Mike, other than the whole... thing you just went through how are you doing?

**Machias Banshee** · 11-18-2002, 04:36 PM

*Machias sat up in her bed wrapped in her blankets, sketchbook in hand. She'd been trying to go to sleep, but the events of the day had brought her to an overtired exhaustion, thus making it almost impossible for her to sleep. She gazed at the picture she was working on....Kameko was finally in the picture, making faces and mimicking Leonardo.
She looked to the final part of her picture, when she felt a pain in her stomach. She grimaced, setting the book down.*

~Must have eaten something i shouldnt ha--no...its too low for that. *She she moved her hands to her lower abdomen, hissing to the touch.* what the heck? Its not that time yet...I must have missed an aspirin dose....~

*She turned to pick up her aspirin bottle, when the pain sharply in creased. She gasped through clenched teeth. A chill ran down from her neck all the way to the tip of her tail, and she found herself falling from the bed, a blackness surrounding her....*

*kyabetsu* · 11-18-2002, 04:37 PM

Leo settled back down on the sofa. If Sensei was just standing around talking, then it couldn't be THAT bad. Splinter was a grown-up, if he got tired, he'd sit. Leo sure didn't want to push it. Or to consider that maybe Splinter DID need a little more coddling until he was completely recovered.

He sat back and listened to Vespera being polite, having decided to let things well enough alone with Splinter.

Kya listened with half an ear to Don's conversation with Mike. She was absorbed in the carry-all. She squinted into it and pulled out a tray of ice. Then put it back. She pulled a cardigan and put it back. She pulled out a hot pot full of ramen, a ball of twine, a pack of markers, a box of matches, a set of nesting dolls and small folding chair. No problems. She put them back.

kya looked up at mike.
kya: how DID you get this to work?

*terran631* · 11-18-2002, 04:39 PM

SP: *considers that* I do not believe so Vespera. I would say more of the delicious food you brought us this morning, but I do not wish you in incur DOnatello's wrath. *he smiles* Children who are concerned for their parents can be unreasonable at times. BUt I am glad to hear you will be here tomorrow.

MIke: *looks over at Don* Me? Fine, I guess. Why? *glances at Kya's bag distrustfully* It DIDNT work. *he laughed a little* Thought it was gonna eat me for a second

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-18-2002, 04:44 PM

*Don kinda shrugged* Is your nintendo still busted from last week? I remember you complaining about it, but I don't think I fixed it...

Vespera: Hm. Thats twice you've mentioned your kids being overly concerned or something to that effect. You disagree with their diagnosis?

*kyabetsu* · 11-18-2002, 04:46 PM

kya looked back to the bag, doing a pretty good Winnie-the-Pooh. think. think. think.

kya(quietly) ATE you...?

Leo's eyes widened. Vespera was ... testing sensei? no. that's not it. qestioning his judgement?... maybe -- but whatever she was doing, it was beginning to make him feel nervous. not like when she swore around him, but sorta....

*terran631* · 11-18-2002, 04:55 PM

Mike: *looks at Don suspiciously wondering why he was OFFERING to fix his Nintendo. When he accidently kicked it off the dresser while wrestling with Raph, Don swore he wouldnt touch it. That he was tired of fixing it. He looked over at Kya* Yeh...it kinda trapped my hand and then started to get warmer...like it was cooking me. *chuckles* Trust me Kya..my hands are going nowhere NEAR that bag again. *he walked over closer to Donnie* Its still broken. And you swore you'd never fix it because I just keep breaking it.

SP: *shook his head* It is not that Vespera

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-18-2002, 04:57 PM

*Vespera sat forward, wordlessly inviting him to continue*

*Don shrugged, and grinned* I changed my mind

*kyabetsu* · 11-18-2002, 05:06 PM

kya caught the last bit of what don was saying and blushed lightly before she went back to puzzling at her bag.

kya(to herself) to DATE i've never HEARD of it 'eating' anyone. (she put her hand in the bag and just left it there with no intentions of pulling anything from it.) nothing.

Leo stood up and fluffed the pillows on the armchair that faced the sofa.
L: I'm going to go put some tea on. Would you like some Sensei?

*terran631* · 11-18-2002, 05:08 PM

Mike: *frowns* oookay. Eh...why?

SP: I do not disagree or agree. *pauses* For the moment. Time will tell if their concern is unwarranted. But the worry is there and it is understandable. *to Leonardo* No, thank you, Leonardo. Water would be fine though, thank you.

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-18-2002, 05:14 PM

Don: Well, you've had a pretty lousy day all around. What, cant I do something nice for my brother without having an ulterior motive?

Ves: Me too please Leo. *to Splinter after Leo had left the room.* Please forgive me if I'm prying, but you sounded tired, and more than a little exasperated with the whole thing. I thought you might want to talk about it.

*kyabetsu* · 11-18-2002, 05:14 PM

Leonardo nodded and left returning with three waters. before he sat back down again..
Leo: anything else while i'm up? Sensei why don't you sit and stay with us a while?

kya paused in her examination of the bag. She had been curious to see how Donatello would answer....
kya(internal) ... oh. okay.... i thought he said he DIDn't want to try to hide it... (she looked at him out of the corner of her eye, wondering if she'd missed something)

**Machias Banshee** · 11-18-2002, 05:20 PM

*Her eyes opened, and she moaned softly. She pulled herself up onto her elbows and looked at herself, sighing in relief. Sitting up, she pulled her saurian clothing off, and slowly stood up, keeping the bedsheet wrapped around her tightly. She unsteadily walked to her closet, and groaned. She ached all over, and her throat felt like sandpaper...and had nothing to wear. It just made everything SO much better.*

~Why didnt i bring any NORMAL clothes with me?~

*Quickly, she pulled out her ankle-length bathrobe, and tied it on, tossing the bedsheet to the mattress. She looked into her mirror, seeing the face she had once almost forgotten, and on bare feet, slowly opened the door to her room, and entered the hallway...*

*terran631* · 11-18-2002, 05:25 PM

SP: *while Leo is in the kitchen* Thank you Vespera. I am not offended. Perhaps it is good for someone to remind me WHY my children are concerned. *Takes the water from Leonardo and sits in the chair near the couch* THank you, Leonardo.

MIke: *Earlier he wanted to kill me. THen he forgave me, but he was still a little pissed. I dont think Ill ever understand him. Shrugs still confused* Sure DOnnie. I mean....thanks. I thought maybe you'd wanna fix your lab, but...if you wanna. I would appreciate it. Its in my room though...so...

*Vespera Blaze* · 11-18-2002, 05:30 PM

*Don was bursting with wanting to tell someone, and Mike had managed to completely miss the bait in that last statement he'd made. He tried again.* Actually, I lied a little. There is an ulterior motive. Consider it a thank you for giving me a good swift kick in the rear earlier today, even if it was unintentional. His eyes flicked over to Kya, and back again*

*Vespera accepted the water from Leo with a smile of thanks*

*kyabetsu* · 11-18-2002, 05:35 PM

kya felt the corners of her mouth rise. she refused to look up. if she did, she'd start blushing and never stop.

**Machias Banshee** · 11-18-2002, 05:37 PM

*She slowly made her way to the hall, where she could hear voices....Vespera's, Leo's definitely--Splinter? She contemplated whether or not to go into the living room, for fear of surprising them all...it had been AGES since she had been human. Only Mike and Splinter had seen her as a human, but that had been so long ago....Most likely they'd had forgotten what she had looked like. Well, better now than never. With a quiet step, she stood in the doorway, watching silently...*

*terran631* · 11-18-2002, 05:39 PM

Mike: *felt like he was on a rollar coaster trying to follow Donatello's train of thought. He saw him glance over at Kya. And he studied his brother's face more closely. He looked ready to jump out of his own skin. And if his smile was any broader it would split his face in two. Donnie and Kya? Could he have said something? No..Mike dont make the same mistake again by opening your mouth* Um...Donnie-Boy...I've taken a vow of silence on just about everything..so if yer looking for me to guess...*watches his brother's grin widen and drops his voice to a whisper* You...said something....to...her?
