SH & TG [Interaction]

[07:24] SH: If there was ever a time to freak out, it was now. Vena was completely sure she was being followed, for days at this point, and she was absolutely sure that Uncle had told Sister of his findings, one way, or another. At any moment, she imagined, a hulk of rageful spite and blades would tumble through the cafe-door, break a few tables, but then ultiamtely zero in on Vena. What would she do then? Sh
[07:24] SH: e planned all possible forms of escape, windows, backdoor, bathroom, and side doors? She hadn't checked to see if there were any. Biting her lip, she looked down at the napkin, the address of the cafe she had been holed up in ever since she got to San Fransisco. Milo would be showing up at any moment, and as every minute ticked by, she prayed to whatever entity of the universe that subsided over w
[07:24] SH: ould make Milo walk through that front door, as opposed to Uncle, or worse yet, Sister.
[07:24] SH: ((Ooo... that was a lot))
[07:25] TG: ((Oh we're posting here, I thought we were posting on the website))
[07:25] SH: ((oh, we can!))
[07:26] SH: ((either or...))
[07:26] TG: ((?))
[07:26] SH: ((What would be best for you?))
[07:27] TG: ((Let's just do it here, because you can't do quirks on the website))
[07:27] SH: ((Alright))
[07:33] TG: As Vena had contacted him a few days ago, he had prepared a meeting place for the two of them down the street. A small café, nothing too out in the open, but just enough that Uncle might bypass it on his search for Vena, so there would be no worries there. Milo collected himself up, straightening his bowtie and finding his cane, he went down through the apartment stairs, striding out the door and
[07:33] TG: onward toward the café. He was sure he could track Uncle’s movements due to the fact he knew how fast he moved, generally, so by the thyme Uncle met up with Vena’s Sister, they would still have a day or two before they came back to San Francisco. Milo reached the street across from the café, looking back and forth to make sure he wasn’t followed, he walked over and quickly made his way inside. T
[07:33] TG: he familiar ring of the bell that hung just under the inside handle alerted everyone inside that he had made his way in. Looking around, he saw familiar faces, and then one that he didn’t recognize, assumingly Vena. He made his way toward her table and sat down across from her, signaling the waitress that he was ready to order.
[07:33] TG: Vena I presume?
[07:33] TG: (( shit sorry))
[07:34] TG: "Vena I presume?"
[07:34] SH: ((no problem))
[07:36] SH: Vena noticed him walk through the door, a small smile of relief forming on her face by the time he actually sat down across form her and asked if she was Vena. She quickly responded "Yeah, you look way different from what I imagined you'd look like, Milo..." the fear and anxiety was off-set by the imaginings of Milo and his appearance, but it was soon shooken off as she lowered her voice and leane
[07:36] SH: d forward "Uncle and Sis' aren't around, are they?"
[07:40] TG: Milo smiled sweetly to the waitress as she brought over a cup of hot cocoa and a newspaper “Thank you darling” He proceeded to sip it a bit before setting it down and opening the newspaper “ It’s a pleasure to meet you, and we’re you expecting someone a bit less handsome or dashing?” Snickered a little bit at his own joke, “But that’s beside the point, I haven’t seen any sign of either of them, al
[07:40] TG: though I’ve heard rumors of a lady with glasses stalking my building, so I’m unsure at the moment.” He took another sip of his cocoa “Oh still hot”

[07:52] TG: ((?))
-- scienceHistorian [SH] is now an idle chum! --
[07:54] SH: ((sorry about that))
[07:54] SH: ((back now))
[07:54] TG: ((It's cool))
[07:57] SH: Vena's head fell on to the table, as she sighed heavily. "That's probably Sister..." she said, though her voice was muffled and it had a certain sob to it, like all hope had disapated at this point. Though, after a few moments of silence, she lolled her head to the side, to get a better look at Milo, who, was acting exactly acting like the over-exagerated version of him as she had imagined. "You e
[07:57] SH: ven have a bow-tie... Is this how you always dress?"
[08:01] TG: “Always and forever, you gotta be dapper to get anywhere in life” He smiled politely at her, “You are exactly as cute as I thought you would be, although fear doesn’t exactly fit your pro-quo” Reaching across the table he patted her hand gently “No worries, I’ve made several escape plans and I’ve gotten the people at Ikea to help us out.” He motioned for the waitress to come over, and then whisper
[08:01] TG: ed something in her ear, she nodded and went outside for a moment. Upon re-entering the building, she shook her head and returned to her work, “Well that’s good news, I wasn’t followed” Looking quite proud of himself, he slurped down the now cool cocoa.
[08:09] SH: Vena stared incredulously into the distance as he commented about how she was cute, but she quickly shook it off as she sat upright, staring intently at Milo. "Are you running away, miles from home, from a psychotic family member who thinks that a good way to teach a lesson is to do so with blades? On top of that, I've never even left that town, my entire life, I R L everything is kind of crazy,"
[08:09] SH: she sighed, ducking her head and looking out of the window that coupled to the table and chairs they sat at "I don't see how you can be so confident about everything." Vena rubbed her neck, glancing back up at Milo while he was looking at the waitress. She rolled her eyes as he commented that he hadn't been followed, and mumbled "What if she didn't see them..."
[08:13] TG: “I’ll have you know; running away to live another day is what I do best. That and get information” He rolled his eyes when she commented on his confidence. “Act confident and the world will believe it true” He folded up his newspaper and stared at her with the same intensity that she had him. “ The waitress is an aspiring CSI/Private Detective, I often come down her to mess with her and test out d
[08:13] TG: ifferent things of a disguise nature. She’s quite apt at what she does and I trust her instincts.” Milo shrugged and pointed toward the back “Besides there’s always an escape route.”
[08:19] SH: She stared at him, narrowing her eyes before sighing and confessing "Fine, whatever, you have everything under control..." she pouted, looking back twoards the window and into the street. Upon further inspection, she began to see the shadows dramatically shift from what she had remembered them to look when she first came into San Fransisco. It finally dawned on her how late it was getting, and how
[08:19] SH: long she had actually travelled for before getting here, to be with Milo. It took her a few moments of hesitation, before asking "...Do you think we could head over to that Ikea you were talking about? I think..." she paused, remembering what Milo had said, and how he seemed to have nothing to fear, as opposed to her "...I think I'd feel a little more at ease, there. I guess,"
[08:20] TG: “But of course, anything for the lovely lady” Grabbing his cane and the newspaper, he stepped to his feet and gestured toward the door in the back. “Shall we?”
[08:24] SH: Vena rolled her eyes, whatever. At least they were going somewhere, she thought, as she got up, sliding her back-pack onto one arm as she looked towards the back door. "Sure... you lead the way,"
[08:27] TG: “Onward we go then” He began to waltz through the back, before leaving he waved to the waitress, then holding the door open for Vena. “Here’s the thing about IKEA, it’s huge and it’s easy to get lost or confused if you wander or talk to the wrong people. I’ve got an area set up that’s quite clever if I do say so myself, you’ll be hidden to all of those around you” He placed the papers in his back
[08:27] TG: pocket before making another hand gesture “Tick tock, we haven’t got all day”
[08:32] SH: Again, the eye-rolling was strong with this one, and Vena expected that it would get worse a the day went on. She snickered though, patting Milo on the shoulder on her way out "I hope you don't start inserting time puns into every other sentence-"
[08:35] TG: “Oh dearie, you’ve got no idea, I’ve had all my puns listed so that I remember to use them from thyme to thyme” He craned his neck out into the alley they had just stepped into, looking from side to side, he observed nothing out of the ordinary “ The IKEA isn’t far from here, maybe a 10 minute 24 second walk” The cane hit the ground with a solid thwack as he began a hurried walk toward the street
[08:35] TG: “Keep close and don’t be afraid to yell out for me if you get lost, I’ll find you”
[08:38] SH: "How in the hell would I get lost if I follow you right next to you?" She stuffed her hands into her sweat-shirt pockets, before running to catch up to Milo, slowing to a quick pace as she got close to him. Also, just wanting to antagonize at this point, Vena added "How would you even find me if I called out to you in a city like this? It's pretty dang noisy,"
[08:41] TG: “Along the way I’m going to pick up a disguise, to which you will not be able to recognize me even if I stood in front of you” He sneered at her “I doubt you’d even be able to find me, thus why I need you to keep a watchful eye and a quick pace” He turned left heading toward what looked like China town. His pace didn’t slow “And as for finding you, you stick out rather well, thus it isn’t hard to
[08:41] TG: spot you” In the few moments that he had been speaking to her, somehow he had picked up a brown trench coat.
[08:45] SH: "Yeah I can do that" she snapped "Why do you have to go through all these motions, when directions will suffice, I made it to the cafe in one piece, didn't I? Why do you need to change your disguise if I will stick out like a sore thumb?" She kept up the pace, but she was too absorbed into what he was saying to be paying attention to what was going on around her.
[08:48] TG: “Because I’m fairly certain your sister is following us” He said in a hushed voice as he pointed to the shadow of the building next to them, a figure could briefly be seen standing before vanishing. “Thus why you need to keep calm and trust me” He now had a bowler hat on his head and what seemed to be a heavy scarf. “I’ll keep her busy, she doesn’t know my style yet” Milo shuffled into the large o
[08:48] TG: vercoat “I’ll lead you to the IKEA, just follow my clues and keep walking”
[08:55] SH: Vena stopped talking, and looked solemn as she continued to follow Milo.

[09:46] TG: Milo moved in a hurried motion as he began to walk in a more hobbled manner "Keep to the streets and keep a watchful eye out for signs" He tipped his hat a single thyme, someone passed between them, and he had vanished.
[09:49] SH: Vena furrowed her brow, why? Why did this have to happen? Not only is she in this city shes never been in, but her sister is hunting them and Milo just vanished into thin air, she didn't know where either of them were! Talk about a stressful situation, either way, Vena kept on repeating what Milo had said to her, keeping to the streets and watching out for 'signs'. Though, Vena, taking things lite
[09:49] SH: rally, started to analyze shop and street signs. 'Starbucks', 'Cleaners', and 'Dog Groomers'. She bit her lip, what the hell could those things mean? Did he want her to clean a dog with coffe? Why? Any case, she was starting to freak out.
[09:53] TG: Several of the smaller shops, many eateries, were around the area that she was currently in. Several of the signs had arrows that suddenly lit up in the middle of the day for no apparent reason. Milo on the other hand had back tracked for a few moments to look for Sis, which he had found crawling across rooftops. Cursing his luck, he made a sad attempt at climbing onto a roof, only to end up flat
[09:53] TG: on his ass.
[09:54] SH: ((side question))
[09:54] TG: ((Hm?))
[09:54] SH: ((how do you get it so that your art pictures aren't enlarged on your blog?))
[09:55] SH: ((anywhos))
[09:55] TG: ((Well I think that you're actually stuck with them that way, it might be your theme))
[09:56] SH: ((I've been trying to settle on a theme that just, doesn't enlarge it, and doesn't go screwy when I scroll down through my artwork))
[09:56] SH: ((I guess I've been looking at the normal tumblr theme, how do you re-install that?))
[09:56] TG: ((Should be under customization))
[09:57] SH: ((yea?))
[09:58] TG: ((And just get rid of the theme))
[09:58] SH: ee
[09:58] SH: ((eeeokay))
[09:58] TG: ((Sorry!))
[10:03] SH: ((THERE WE GO))
[10:04] SH: ((Okay thanks a bunch))
[10:04] SH: ((aldkfjadsk))
[10:04] TG: ((No problme))
[10:04] SH: ((alright))
[10:05] TG: ((Sorry if the whole following signs is confusing))
[10:05] SH: ((Nah it's fine))
[10:05] SH: ((vena is just over-thinking it))
[10:05] TG: ((Coolness! You're turn))
[10:08] SH: The signs flickered on, and Vena followed them dutifully, walking through the corridoors that housed different shops and houses. She thought, now, this was an act of Milo, I mean, how else would these signs flicker on and off like this? Though, she did break the rule he had told her before, and looked back into the street before rounding a corner, seeing if she could spot Milo at all.
[10:12] TG: Dashing across the rooftops what appeared to be a large homeless man with a bowler hat on, a woman ran infront of him, screaming out profanities at the seemingly old man. Whilst the old gentlemen kept calling her rude things, apparently trying to get her to stop or at the very least slow down. They were not at all subtle.
[10:18] SH: "Whaaaat? This is just getting weird!" pouted Vena, as she came to a stop, is this really what Milo had in mind? She held herself against a wall, looking out into an alley-way that led back out to a street. A sign flickered at the end of the alley, pointing into a deeper part of the block. She hesitated, but walked quickly down the cobble steps to the arrow, and ducked into the adjacent alleyway.
[10:19] TG: Suddenly a loud crash and something apparently fell into several of the nearby trashbins, a low groan emminated from it and a cane came flying down smacking it right dead center.
[10:21] SH: ((ahah, oh my god, what if))
[10:21] TG: ((Hm?))
[10:21] SH: Vena >Investigate
[10:21] SH: ((ahah, I don't know
[10:21] SH: *))
[10:22] TG: ((FUCK YES))
[10:22] SH: ((That seemed really funny, like one of those type adventure things((
[10:22] TG: ((Love it
[10:22] SH: ((PARENTHE)SS)SSS(S(IES, EVERYWHERE(A(DS(FSD())()()))
[10:23] TG: ((Anyway, back to rp))
[10:23] SH: ((yeah))
[10:23] SH: Vena >Walk over and Investigate
[10:23] SH: ((pfft))
[10:25] TG: Milo popped his head out of what seemed to be a soemwhat sturdy looking trenchcoat. "Oh dear she is a frightful fighter, I only got at tops two hits in", opening up the coat revealed several layers of bubblewrap, and several different sectiosn of it completely popped and indented. He shed the coat and the scarf, but kept the bowler hat as he stood up.
[10:27] SH: "OH my god you did not MILO-" she put her hands over her mouth before she yelled at Milo. She kept on telling Milo how insane she was, and how he really shouldn't try to challenge her, at all. She parted her hands for a moment to say "So what now, where do we go?" before putting them back down on her mouth.
[10:29] TG: "Well, thanks to your keen insight on following my instructions, your sister believes your headed that way" pointed his finger fair down the ally where she had come in "When in fact you're headed this way". Milo picked up his cane and grabbed Vena's hand and marched her through the exit of the alley, and across the street was a beautiful site. "IKEA in all it's madien glory"
[10:31] SH: Vena looked up at the giant multi-plex of furniture and decadance, gasping softly as she was taken in by Milo. "Wow, and it's really all filled with firniture?.." her question seemed to be answered as they walked in, seeing the endless rows of couches and un-amused customers browsing them. Vena's eyes widened, she had never seen as much furniture in one place all at once before.
[10:33] TG: "Indeed so, filled to the brim with almost anything you may need or not need until now!" He had a somewhat sarcastic tone to it as he was portraying a bad salesman. "None the less, this is where we'll be staying, not here in this spot, but more toward the back" Milo pointed his cane toward the deep recesses of the store.
[10:34] SH: Vena grabbed onto his arm and whispered in a low voice "Oh my god, Milo, does it ever end?" she was being completely serious.
[10:36] TG: "Occasionally, but there's a tendency to infinity" He reached up and clutched her hand, intertwinnig his fingers into hers. "No worries, and don't let go. The people who work her are almost as bad as your sister, but with sales" He puffed out his chest a bit and began to walk with a certain amount of swagger in his step as they began their long trek to the back of the store.
[10:39] SH: She snorted, holding on to his hand and his arm as they made there way back to the store. "Reaally? I don't think there are a lot of people that can be classified as being 'worse' than my sister, Milo. Even if they are salesmen," She paused, looking around, "At least salesmen don't attack you and beat you up,"
[10:40] TG: "Not physically, but more toward the wallet sense. And speaking of beating up, I hope your sister doesn't mind a bruised face" Milo chuckled lightly as he gripped his cane a little bit tighter.
[10:42] SH: "Like anyone would be able to do that. She'd drop-kick you into the nether-realms if you even touch her glasses, accidental or not," Vena sighed, remembering an aformentioned 'accidental' incident "Though, is money really a problem? We'll be staying here free, right?"
[10:43] SH: ((this thing has 27 notes omfg))
[10:44] TG: "Well then this cane must have hit someone elses face when I was trying to get her to pay attention to me" He did that smirk that assured his own smuggness and a quick eyebrow waggle. "Free is a relative term that most people don't understand completely, but yes we will"
[10:48] SH: "Okay, cool!" She smiled, a reallly genuine smile, like everything was going to be better now kind of smile "Though, how are we going to go shop, or get things to eat, and practical stuff like that?"
[10:50] TG: "I'll take care of all that, no worries." He looked around them, the scenery had changed so much, they had gone far enough that they were almost toward the bed section of the store. No longer could they see the front. "Wow, gotta love space intaglment drives"
[10:53] SH: Vena stared half-heartedly at him "What? Intaglment drives?" She looked back towards where they had come from, noticing how the scenery became obscure, though, they did arrive to the back end of the store, a sort of 'alternative bedrooms' showcase, of inventive and imaginitive bedrooms that had things like treehouses built into them. Talk about the perfect place for a pillow fort. She turned aroun
[10:53] SH: d and pointed towards the first bedroom showcase that they came up to, pulling Milo along to the entrance "Wow, oh my gosh, people actually have bedrooms like this?!" she exclaimed, clearly excited about this stuff.
[10:56] TG: "Oh that's not ours, that's display only" He made a sweeping motion toward a incredibly large (speaking wise, about two stories) stack of beds. "This is our place" He placed his hands on his hips, looking rather proud of himself. "Made it myself, designed with care"
[10:58] SH: Vena ran forward and flopped onto the stack of beds, some falling down on to her into the process. She didn't move, but only made muffled squeals of joy, as she began to thrash about and burrow into the mattress pile. ((She's turning into a mole or something geez))
[10:59] TG: "What are you doing on the roof? Is that how you lived up north?" Rolling his eyes, he walked forward toward a single size bed that for some odd reason, was standing up right, almost like a door. He opened it up and stepped inside, leaving it open for her to come join him.
[11:00] SH: She burrowed into the second story, popping out and landing on the floor, making a loud thud. "That actually kind of hurt, wow, this is insane Milo!" She scampered to get up, ready to explore the rest of the bed-fort "Is this thing indestructable or something?!"
[11:03] TG: "Not indestructable, just meant to fool anyone into just passing it by" He set his cane against the wall and threw his hat on a small table. The house was incredibly similar to an ordinary house, it had all normal things, tables, chairs etc etc. The only difference was that there was no toliet and that the entire frame was made of beds. In the sleeping quarters Milo had simply thrown a multitude o
[11:03] TG: f blankets and pillows to cover sleeping supplies.

[09:38] SH:"This is... really great," Her smile started to fade, as she walked down the steps into the main floor, where Milo had walked in. She looked around, before speaking up "There's an outlet around here right?" she said as she dropped the backpack she had to her shoulder, ready to pull out her set-up and set everything down.
[09:41] TG: Milo moved over to where she had put her bag down, and opened up a small panel, revealing a small outlet. "Lots of these around her, I like to have electronics around often." He noticed her bright appearence had become sad "What's wrong dear?"
[09:45] SH: Vena shrugged, half-heartedly, before she moved over to the outlet "Lot's of things, but I guess worrying about them won't help much," she pulled out no less than three laptops from the bag she was carrying, along with various other smaller electronics and gadgets. She pulled out a power strip and began hooking them up to the outlet, turning one of the laptops on. While it began to boot up, she tu
[09:45] SH: rned back to Milo "So, did anything happen between you and Sister? How'd you loose her?"
[09:47] TG: "Well as it turns out, she hits almost as hard as my Uncle, but I give her credit where credit is due" He undid his green bowtie and took off his shirt, revealing several pin-point brusies that were beginning to flower out into a dull green. "She's got preccssion down to a snap, I mean Uncle usually leaves large messy messes, but she's sharp" He sat down against the wall and sighed with relief and
[09:47] TG: the cushioined building.
[09:53] SH: Vena frowned, turning back to her computer and opening different programs and files, as to check that they were all there before she continued. Under her breath she mumbled "Yeah... and next time she'll have no problem knocking your head off..." though, she stopped herself and turned back to Milo "-And, is Uncle going to track us here or anything? Aren't they going to know we're in the general bui
[09:53] SH: lding?"
[09:55] TG: "Uncle, whilst clever as he is, is a man of muscle. He can track us, alas when it comes to the city, it becomes a bit more difficult for him to do anything without getting arrested." He fliched as he began to poke around at his own body, checking if everything was okay. "Also why he loves the wild so much, less police, hot damn the brusies are on my back too!" Milo looked almost pleasently surpris
[09:55] TG: ed "Your sister is quite powerful I'll give you that"
[10:03] SH: "That's why you shouldn't fight her," Vena snapped, continuing to type away at her computer, she stopped, realizing what she said, and sighed heavily "I mean- why do you have to put yourself in danger for my sake?"
[10:05] TG: "We're friends aren't we?" Milo stretched out his arms, wiggling his fingers "and so everything works, now for the legs" He shook out both his legs before walking around in a circle, then walking over to get his cane "And now I have to use this for a reason other than fighting, irony"
[10:13] SH: Vena didn't say anything, she was obviously bugged by what had happenned, no matter what Milo said. She never wanted to fight, nor did she ever want someone to face what she has to face. It never dawned on to her what the consequences might be if she were ever to get out and rebel. Would she really be saving herself, if it meant that she had to rely on other people who would get hurt because of he
[10:13] SH: r? Almost all at once, the pent up emotions that she had been holding on to for the past seven years of her life had begun to hit her. Tears began to run down from her face, but she was quick to try and hide them from Milo with her arms. Turning her head away from him, she started to process what it actually means for her to leave her sister, what it will mean for the rest of her life, if her sist
[10:13] SH: er never stops looking for her. Wow, everything sucked right now, and Vena had trouble holding that all in, but she was adimant to continue with her computer, like nothing was actually wrong.
[10:16] TG: Milo watched her patiently, he watched her break down and had no clue as to what was going through her head at the moment. But he hobbled over, dropped his cane, and wrapped his arms around her. Incasing her in a big bear hug. "It's alright, it's okay, no worries"
[10:19] SH: "No it's not!" she blurted out, still covering her face with her hands and arm. Ugh, she must of looked like a total dork at this point, but, the emotions were swelling and she didn't know what to do otherwise. Before long, she was able to get some of the sobs into coherrent sentences, and she finally asked Milo "Do you even know what I was doing up there?!"
[10:20] SH: ((ALSO, you see paperman if you watch wreck-it ralph))
[10:21] SH: ((it plays at the beginning))
[10:21] SH: ((I didn't even know that, or if you can watch it online or something, I was just surprised))
[10:21] SH: ((anyway))
[10:24] TG: Milo swayed her a bit, he gripped her hands and slowly brought them down from her face. "Darlin, I have no clue what so ever. I know it wasn't pleasent, I know that you didn't like it, and I know since I got to know you I wanted to help you" He put on his best smile and looked deeply into her eyes "All that matters is that you're safe now, in our tiny bedhouse"
[10:25] SH: She tried to look away "But I'm not! I never will be!"
[10:27] TG: "You're with me darlin, of course you're safe" He kissed the knuckles of her hand and leaned forward, touching her forehead with his. "I'll protect you"
[10:28] SH: Vena bit her lip, before saying softly "But what if you get hurt..."
[10:29] TG: "Hurt? Look at me, I'm indestructable!" He put on a rather silly grin as he said this, given his current condition.
[10:30] SH: "But you're not," she looked down "I don't think Sister and Uncle are going to be the only ones looking for me... that's the thing,"
[10:31] TG: "Well who else is looking for you?" New information was always interesting, but with so many varaiables, they might have to move again.
[10:32] SH: ((okay so, the whole deal with Vena is that she's like a government test subject or whatever, she was born and raised in a weird enviornment so that she could be a skilled fighter, like her sister, who was in the program before her. Do you think Unlce would have any connection to anything like this?))
[10:32] SH: ((just wondering))
[10:32] SH: (( like didn't you say he used to be a spy or something))
[10:33] TG: ((That would be interesting, especially since Milo is about weird science and such))
[10:33] TG: ((And yes, HEADCANON ACCEPTED))
[10:33] SH: ((apfppfpft, okay))
[10:34] TG: ((OH Wouldn't that be interesting if Milo had some info about her, as he could have hacked Uncles thing))
[10:34] TG: ((None the less it's your turn))
[10:35] SH: "The Government," she was being completely serious, and thought maybe Milo would laugh a bit at it. She sighed, before adding "... I don't think Sister would stop looking for me, ever,"
[10:35] SH: ((Nono, that'd be cool THATS WHY HE CONTACTED HER))
[10:35] SH: ((INN THE FIRST PLACE))
[10:35] SH: ((BECAUSE HE READ ABOUT HER))
[10:35] SH: ((AND HE WANTED TO HELP))
[10:35] SH: ((OMGMGGMGMG))
[10:35] TG: (( YES BECAUSE HES ALREADY IN LOVE)))
[10:35] TG: ((GOODNESS))
[10:35] TG: ((YES))
[10:36] SH: ((this is the best))
[10:36] SH: ((omfg))
[10:36] TG: "Oh yes them, no I don't think we have to worry about them" His tone was of suspicsion and a hint of fear, but confidence on the outside. "And why do you think they would be after you in the first place?"
[10:38] SH: She eyed him carefully before speaking, not breaking eye-contact "I lived in that village because I was supposed to, as in, train there. To learn how to fight, like my sister did..." she stopped herself, wondering if she should continue or not, coming out of her mouth, it did seem kind of far-fetched.
[10:39] TG: "And did you? Learn how to fight that is" His voice betrayed him, it was of interest not concern. Whilst his motives were purly out of concern, seeing as they were safe they weren't the first thing on his mind.
[10:41] SH: "Of course," she said quietly "Of course I did, I never wanted to, but-" she started to sob again "My sister was so accomplished, and they thought, they thought that I'd be just as good! But, I was really young, and-" at this point, it became unintelligable sobbing, as she finally gave up and hugged Milo back, sobbing all over his shoulder. "I was so young and, they had just died and-"
[10:41] SH: ((aaah ;_)
[10:43] TG: "Oh come here" His heart was beating a mambo out inside of him, his arms holding her close. After all this thyme, all those years, his little heart was about to give out due to all the excitment he was feeling. "You don't have to tell me anythign you don't want to"
[10:46] SH: "Noo- I haven't told anyone. That's why it's coming out like this," she retorted "I was just, really young, and my sister didn't care. She never did, since she already had stopped caring, like her job demanded she did..." Vena stopped, losening her grip on Milo and just leaning on him, before burying her face again "I never wanted to learn, and I didn't realize until it was too late what I was cap
[10:46] SH: able of..."
[10:48] TG: Milo slowly sank to the ground, allowing her to lay on him with ease. "I really wish I could have helped more, I'm sorry" He hesitated for a moment, but he kissed her forehead softly. The emotional toll, along with the intense pain, was harsh on him. Milo had begun to tear up a tad, remember days gone by.
[10:51] SH: "Why couldn't I just have lived a normal life? Without all of this..."
[10:53] TG: "I'm sorry, I really am" He recalled his memories of digging through files on his Uncle's computer, the images, the words, and the videos. All of them so terrible, it was beyond words.
[10:53] SH: ((ahah oh wow that's feels right there))
[10:53] TG: (( IT HURTS))
[10:54] SH: ((jeeeeez))
[10:54] TG: (( BUT ONWARD))
[10:56] SH: "Not like you could of done anything," she chuckled, closing her eyes "Though... I do actually, feel safe," she mumbled over her words by the end of the sentence, but Milo should of still heard. She was actually ready to fall asleep on top of Milo, right then and there.
[11:00] TG: Milo on the other hand was close to having a slight mental breakdown. When he was younger, seeing those images had caused him to ask his Uncle who she was, which lead to a severe beating. Thus over the years he had to sneak all the information that he had gained about her. Dealing with the fact that he had no clue where she was, he had spent years of his life learning how to hack into electronics
[11:00] TG: on the simple basis to help her out in anyway possible. Eventually the need to help this girl turned to affection, and eventually love. Milo knew everything about
[11:00] TG: Vena, yet she knew almost nothing about him. Sadness struck him much more often than he'd like to admit
[11:01] SH: (( ; _)
[11:01] TG: ((RIGHT?!))
[11:01] SH: (( ;;;; ___ ;;;;; ))
[11:01] SH: (( ;;;;;;; ;; ; ; ; ;; __--- -SA DF_DS_F _ ___ P ;;;;; ))
[11:01] SH: ((okay))
[11:02] TG: ((Okay?))
[11:02] SH: ((okay!))
[11:02] TG: ((oh right then))
[11:10] SH: Vena looked up to Milo's face, sensing something was wrong. She didn't move anything else but her eyes, and she wasn't quite sure what Milo became tense about, and she was almost too afraid to ask. She looked back down, thinking maybe what she had said had triggered something for him. Vena moved backwards, sitting up and looking away from Milo, and back at the computer. Trying to alleviate the sit
[11:10] SH: uation, just a tad, she chuckled and told Milo something, "You know, when my mom was still alive, she'd always tell me that my Sister was a superhero, and that's why she never visited, and I guess, to some people she is," she looked down, that didn't help at all, Vena, just stop talking.
[11:12] TG: "It's fine darlin, just some bad memories comin back up" He apparently wasn't a good liar in this kind of situation, as his face was clearly in pain. "So, tell me about yourself?" Despite knowing nearly everything, he loved hearing her voice not being in pain. Seeing her smile and speak about better things.
[11:21] SH: "Well...," she sighed "I've always had a weird life. I lived in complete secrecy until my parents were assassinated, and after that I was brought to live in America with my sister, who, is probably not even my sister. I don't know, she's never actually given me a straight answer about it. I'm, like her though, in the sense that I'm predispositioned to taking pain a lot better than 99% of the human
[11:21] SH: population, and I'm also predispositioned to have a high I.Q. as well, though, both of those things are up to debate," she stared blankly into space as she spoke, even though this was brining back memories, she had never told anyone about this, and what had happened to her had never left her lips, and maybe there was something about it that made it feel a little bit better. A feeling that maybe n
[11:21] SH: ow that someone knew, that they'd care, or at least, know, about her "I had been taught to train and fight since I was five, and I've completely stopped snice last year. I've most of my life in a village where others like me are raised, and if you can't keep yourself in order, then it's not uncommon for someone to murder you in broad daylight, and most importantly, for no one to actually care. I g
[11:21] SH: uess, one of those days, I was hoping that I'd just be murdered, or have some courage to commit suicide, so I wouldn't have to deal with Vera. I don't know, though, really, everything I've experienced since leaving has become really surreal, I don't know which reality is real any more..."
[11:21] SH: ((sorry if my grammars weird or anything ))
[11:27] TG: "Trust me, this is very very real" He was almost afraid to ask, but did so anyway "Did anything ever happen whilst you were at this place, anything good? Like an unlocked door or extra rations or anything like that?
[11:27] TG: "
[11:28] SH: "Yeah I guess, there were always those kinds of days. Though I mostly I just kept to myself,"
[11:29] TG: "Good good, that's wonderful" His small panic attack subsided after that, due to the fact he now knew that he had helped out in the smallest of ways.
[11:30] SH: "Ugh, I'm so tired...," she rolled onto the matress beneath her, covering her face as she layed on her stomach "Having to travel all that way kind of sucked!"
[11:32] TG: Milo kissed her hand once, before passing out onto the ground, pain and exshaustion had finally caught up to him and he could no longer avoid sleeping it all away.
[11:34] SH: "Milo?!" Vena jumped up, as Milo passed out "Oh my god, you idiot..." she rolled back up beside him, looking at his face. She stared at him for a few moments, before laying back down where she was. Whatever, it was his fault for getting hurt anyway. She closed her eyes, and slowly drifted off to sleep.
