Well, now. It seems I didn't need to be rescued after all. I am, in fact, out of that city now and apologize for any fussing it may have caused. What a strange place, and to make me think of such a thing, when I haven't thought about it in years.

It was only a matter of time before one of the nasty ones hit me. Kid, I'm glad one of your friends

You're back then, huh?

From the beginning, I guess.

So it would seem. It was an interesting trip.

[GrayFrom the time I was born, I knew I was different from other children and I hated it. I saw things other people couldn't see and, because of that, my family thought I was insane. But I really did see them, you see, and it frustrated me to no end that they refused to understand

When you said I wasn't gonna like it, you were right. I don't like it. I don't like thinking that you were--that you were raped. That you were locked up in such a horrible place and you couldn't--

But I am glad you trusted me enough to tell me, Jaenelle. And...until your brother comes, until your father and Daemon get here, I'll be the stand-in. Hell, even after they come--won't get rid of me that fast.

And I knew it. I had a feeling you were more powerful than you were letting on...but I guess part of me didn't want to believe it, or couldn't believe it, or...I don't know.

You have said enough, really. I do understand.

When I said everyone died, I was also right. I don't imagine any of the uncles are alive now. If they are, they're living a life full of agony. You reap what you sow, isn't that what they say? They will regret what they have done even in death. In my world, some fates are worse than death.

I do trust you, it's curious. That's not to say I didn't trust back home, but for me to give away so much information to someone I've only known a few months -- I still haven't figured out why. Maybe it's just the familiar fussing.

I'm good at pretending sometimes. Do you know, shortly before arriving here, I became a Queen? The Dark Court waged war on the Kindred, my friends, and slaughtered most of them. It was the only way I could extend my protection to them and their land.

Saetan, Lucivar and Daemon, I imagine they would warm up to you with time, but they would be grateful first and foremost. If not, I'd have to give them the silent treatment -- they hate that.

I certainly hope so.

[snarlingly]

Will you both be finding a place to stay then? You're both welcome to stay, I enjoy the company.

[anti_asymmetry]

Ah, you wouldn't mind? I do like it here, even if the apartment could use a bit more work.

[ooc; alskfj I totally forgot to tell you--the first day Kid was here, Alexiel offered to teach him some stuff, so he has a room over at the Firehouse, too. I realized it was going to be a conflict after the fact, so I just figured that he went back and forth between Jaenelle's place and the Firehouse, orz.]

Picking at my decor? I haven't had the time to shop yet.

Have you ever been to a circus?

[ooc; It's all good! Alexiel ftw. ♥]
