[RP] The Inn of Peace - IoP (Open to all)

[Gren_Eckener]

The blonde nodded cheerily. "Not that big, but she's sure tall...and very nice! She keeps bringing in the fresh meats and such, I give the herbs and vegetables...cool, huh? You should meet her!"

"Okay." he murmured, pecking Kiran's cheek gently and letting him go. slipping out the doo and down the stairs. Spotting Adam and Honey, he beamed, giving Adam a quick pounce-hug (much to the gardener's cheery surprise) before getting into the kitchen.  

[Astra_Senpai]

"I woul' lo'e ta'." Honey pouted, "Do's she co'e insi'e? I canno' go ou' un'il I'm no' a lo's'er." She watched Malachai... she must still be in trouble for yesterday. She shrugged oh well.  

[Azana Brown]

A window upstairs opened, a man garbed in black creeping in after an inhumanly tall jump to reach it. His footsteps barely made a sound as he casually strolled up to a sleeping beauty, brushing a lock of ginger hair out of her face and watching her cringe.

"It's been a long time," he whispered.

Marilyn's green eyes shot open, and she glanced over to the stranger. The eyes stood out immediately, but hearing the voice so close...she opened her mouth, gasping in preparation for a scream, but found a hand clasped over it immediately, the other reaching for the hilt of a sword.

"Now, now, dear...not a word. Not here. You need to come with me; I'm sure you know what happens if you refuse." He smiled tenderly, even as the free hand drew the blade slightly, its ebony tint reflected in the moonlight.

Marilyn nodded, trying to send telepathic cries for help but finding her focus broken. Was it him...? No, she glanced down to a catapsi belt around her waist. The only way they found to give her restful sleep was now working against her in the worst moment. The hand lifted from her, and she shakily got up from bed. So many questions on her mind, none of which she dare ask while staring death in the face.

"That's a good girl," he reassured her before knocking her one to the back of the head, catching her unconscious form in his demonically strong arms. With another leap, he was out the window and climbing back onto the moped. He really needed another vehicle, and soon...at least he was able to drape her over his back, feigning a sleeping or intoxicated passenger.

In another room, Orrin stirred for a couple moments, feeling uneasy and agitated. It passed, though...and yet, he was now wide awake. That was what concerned him. He stretched, combing his hair and heading downstairs, not realizing that until he got to the stairs themselves, he was sporting streaks of red...  

[Gren_Eckener]

Malachai trotted out of the kitchen, happily toting a tray with a cup of chamomile. He smiled to Honey, clearly showing that he was on a mission! Stepping up the stairs, he sniffed. Was that...naw, must have just been himself. Smiling, he returned to Kiran's room.

"Silly demons...Inside? No, not often...it's a little cramped, with the ceilings. But you can go see her when you're better, right?" he smiled, blinking at Orrin. Red streaks? Had he been chibied?

Charlotte looked up from her book, eyes slowly narrowing. "To quote Miss Lavell, something is not right..." she muttered, getting up and pulling on her boots, plucking the air a minute before following the discrepancy out into the hall, not far behind Orrin.  

[Astra_Senpai]

Kiran had made the bed, organized the pages, dressed and was sitting on the bed with Elephant. Trying to teach it how to play peek a boo.

Honey nodded slightly. It was like a people parade. She waved to each but wondered if they were all apart of the GMO. Or maybe they'd all gotten hungry at the same time? She had a feeling she should have stayed in her room today. "Loo's li'e e'er'one's go' a bee in t'ere bonne' today."  

[Gren_Eckener]

The plushie seemed to not understand the point of the game, and kept pawing at Kiran's hands when his face was hidden. Malachai laughed. "You sure work fast...here's your tea!"

Ada, hummed, blinking. "Really? Is there something going on..?" He was apparently unaware of all gongs-on.

Charlotte, now at the top of the stairs, squeaked in delight at the vivid crimson streaked into her sweetheart's locks. "Ohmigosh, you're peppermint!" she cheered, concern forgotten.

(Bluh! It's so late! Good night!)  

[Azana Brown]

"Peppermint...?" Orrin blinked, quirking an eyebrow to Charlotte's delight in him. He dug in a pocket, looking at himself in the mirror and nodding in understanding of what he saw.

"Oh, dear...my highlights are showing." He chuckled...peppermint. That was a new way of looking at it.  

[Astra_Senpai]

Honey wrinkled her nose, sighing. Her and her big mouth. She counted off on her fingers, making sure to say it loud enough to be heard so she didn't have to repeat, "Yes'erday a nun nam'd Mar'lin sho's up wit' nigh'mares... i' go' a bi' 'eavy so I lef' the roo'. To'ay- firs' of Re'y an' An'eles 'ad a figh'... mo'e of a discusion bu' perfec' fo' a remi' an' blen' fo... ah i's no impor'an'. T'en Re'y tol' me an' Ma', mos'ly Ma' why 'e don' li'e 'er. Shame 'oo 'cause she's a lo'ely tail. An' t'en Sos'l an' A'ana co'e dow's'airs tal'in abou' a 'omici'e a' a ol' 'ouse a S'ella's an 'ow t'ey were nee'ed. An t'en Ma' an Re'y le't ta' S'ella's. T'en 'ou came insi'e an t'en t'ey did. I go' sto' get'in up wit' the sun." Whew that was a mouthful. Honey looked at Orrin, red suited him almost as much as the blue.Then back to Adam.

Kiran smiled softly, the charm was a bit simple after all. Kiran very carefully took the tea and held it in his hands. Ah the warmth of it was so nice and it smelled wonderful. "Th-thank y-you. I h-hear a l-l-lot of m-movem-ment in the h-halls. Ar-re m-man-ny u-up?"  

[Gren_Eckener]

Adam blinked, brow crinkling, upset. He'd only understood about half of what she'd said, but he'd managed to glean the important words: Angeles, homicide, Marilyn and nightmares, and Stella. Blinking, he wiped the back of his neck with his handkerchief. "Wow...um...is everyone all right? Are you okay?"

Charlotte giggled, meeting him where he stood, petting a red section. "May I braid this? It's soooo pretty!"

Mal nodded. "There's a lot of things happening, I think. Orrin's hair's a little red...he and I match! And there's all kinds of running around....but I don't know much about that. Is the tea okay?"  

[Azana Brown]

Orrin chuckled lightly, finding a seat. "Go ahead...it's been a while since I've braided it."  

[Gren_Eckener]

Trilling cheerily, she pulled a hairbrush from her bag and got straight to work, brushing out the silky-straight hair with gentle strokes. "Ahh, so pretty...I'm jealous, just a little, hee hee! But, the red...does something have your proverbial tail fluffed? The wobble?"  

[Azana Brown]

"Wobble..." Orrin thought, trying not to tilt his head and throw off her braid. "Well, I woke up a little agitated...it wasn't a dream, then...?"  

[Gren_Eckener]

"Oh dear, did it? Yes, that wasn't a dream...something's gone funny in the Forces, dear!" she said, braiding carefully.  

[Angeles Valentine]

When the very air seemed to just die Angeles looked up from her hands. She had heard Sosol and Azana talking hurriedly, but then there was silence save for the music, and a new voice entered the in. She hadn't bothered to open the door to go investigate, she had wanted to speak with Azana and Sosol, but they were otherwise occupied.

But then there was something, and then it was gone. It was disturbing, and she finally opened her door to look down the hall. She wasn't looking for whatever it had been, because it was gone, as was clearly noted by the hairs on the back of her neck no longer standing on end. Instead she was looking for a change, something that was different, what she saw after a moment was the white-haired man, though now it had red streaks in it, coming out to the hall, and being met up with Charlotte.

She hesitated a moment, deciding her plan of action, before stepping out into the hall. She wasn't going to let others' animosity towards her keep her from offering her help if there was danger nearby. She did, however, keep a safe distance away from Charlotte, she had no clue the extent of the woman's power, and the last thing she wanted was to be turned into a potato or something, "what's going on?" she asked simply enough.  

[Gren_Eckener]

"Don't worry, you're not even a blip on the radar." said Charlotte, tying off the braid and kissing Orrin's crown with a giggle. "But what a strange question; everything's going on!"
