Glai and Will RP

Andra- "Sure. Tea sounds good."
She wags her tail.

Day- "She was sleeping." :p

Silverfin - "Oh. Figures."

*Xana nods, leaving. She comes back with a cup of tea.*

A light movement can be heard just behind Maria, a gentle stirring.. It seems that the sleeping Leafeon has finally started to wake. With a small smile, she gently hugs her pillow close to her, leaf-like tail gently swaying back and forth beneath the warm comfort of the blankets.
"Mmm.."

Maria turns to face her newest 'project', which is nicknamed 'Project Get Kierra OK', for lack of a better name, and smiles.
"Ah...slept soundly..."
Maria places the freshly made tea beside the girl on the nightstand, stirring it with a -clink!- every so often.

Atlus watches Glai, then frowns, tilting his head.
"...You totally dig her."

"Son....can we talk in private?" he says, frowning himself.

"Sure, what the heck? Let's go Pops." ^_^

It takes awhile, but once a few minutes have passed, the girl lets her eyes lazily drift open, an utterly content smile on her face. Seeing as she's still waking up, still taking in the world around her, it takes her a moment or two to realize, her smile fading, that this bed isn't hers. That cup of tea isn't the one her master left her every night.. And this Leafeon was certainly not her master.
Upon taking all of this in, Kierra slowly, hesitantly begins to look up at her host, her fearful and slightly apprehensive gaze locking on Maria's eyes.

Glai smiles. "Atlus...my son...Do you think...Shay and I...?"

Atlus-"Hey, how am I to know? I'm just a kid." x3
He scratches at the nape of his neck.
"Now, Daybreak and I...Well, that's just some damn chemistry right thar, har har har." :3

Maria sits in a chair, about a foot and a half away from the bed, and drinks her personal tea, and smiles back at the girl.
"Good afternoon, Kierra...Are you feeling better today?"

".. Yes, ma'am..." the girl murmurs, shrinking back in the bed the slightest bit. For Maria, this is likely a rather confusing gesture. For a mind-reader like Clair, however, the reason is clear.
The girl is flat-out terrified.

"Yes, I know...but...do you think Shay and I have that chemistry?..." he asks, ears back.

Clair had been conversing with Holly in the next room over, informing the Leafeon of Kierra's fear, and she nods and trots into Daybreak's room where Kierra is staying.
"Kierra, is there something the matter? You seem... Intimidated."


Andra- "Thank you."

Xana - "Not a problem." ^^

Silverfin - "Maybe this is a prank or some other-worldly thing...then again, maybe I'm speaking before I think."
*He facepaws.*

Day- "A prank...?"

Andra nods and drinks the tea.

The child jumps a little, quickly shaking her head.
"N-no, miss.." she lies, trembling.
I need to get out of here... she thinks to herself, completely unaware that Clair can hear every last terrified thought running through her head. I should never have let them bring me here.. There is only darkness outside of the walls... Only evil...

((Aaand I'm stuck again.))

Holly sighs in disappointment, listening as Clair passes on what she hears to the disguised Celebi. Knowing she's taking a risk by revealing she- or at least someone in the household- can hear the girl's thoughts, she quietly says, "... I'm sorry... I understand if you want to leave. But do know, we were only trying to help."

Silverfin - "Shh. I wasn't thinking."

Maria tilts her head.
"...Why are you so terrified? You act as if we are witches, waiting to eat you." :/

Will shrugs a bit.
"I don't know...You've only known her for a few days, right?" .-.

Day- "Okay...?"

Little does Will know, Shay has been listening in, hidden high up in a nearby tree. :3

The revelation of Clair's ability clearly surprises Kierra, her eyes widening the slightest bit.. But, strangely it doesn't seem to frighten her more. Strangely enough, Clair's words seem to both confuse and calm her, if only slightly.
".. I.. I just..." she stutters for a moment, then stops with a sigh. After a few moments of thought, the girl slowly, meekly looks up at Maria, ears folded against her head in submission.
.. She held me... Kierra thinks to herself, remembering back to the events of the night before with even more confusion. But.. Why..?
.. It doesn't seem like she's going to say anything.

"...I don't know, Atlus...my son...But...it's like I'm 'drawn' to her." he says, a bit uneasy.

Clair steps silently into the room, her pale red eyes fixed on Kierra. The pale white Espeon smiles faintly, then sits down next to Holly.
"It is because she cares. You may be a complete stranger... But that is no reason to not show compassion." she says softly, then looks at Holly, who nods.


"Maybe you're under the influence of a spell. Perhaps you're bewitched~" Shay says with a grin, still in her hiding spot.
((gotta go. ;_; ))

"What?! Shay?!!"

((Aww...))

And she suddenly vanishes. ;3

Glai whimpers, ears drooping. He bursts into tears and breaks into a run away from his son...
