(Setting) Cain's Apartment (2)
| >Dahk puts her heart on her chest,
"Thank god, i thought it was Angus for a moment there"
| >>154958
"She my maybe-girlfriend, bought her a drink and ugh... my head..."
>Dahk groans, the beer catching up with her
"I asked her out on a date, she's changed i'm pretty sure..."
| (Eleanore! We need you!)
>>154958
>Cain goes to her bedroom, to get dressed.
"Yeah, and if you don't get dressed, AM's going to be real surprised."
| "Surprised at what? Her adorable footie pajamas?"
>Aleid returned with a smile, though she was in the process of putting on pants.
>Eia was still in bed, wrapped up in the blankets.
| >Dahk stares at tuna for. while
"You know Angus kind of reminds me of you, small and cute
"
| "Ah, that's true. Well, that's everyone but Eia ready, but she's asleep."
>Cain, now dressed in Jeans and a flannel shirt, opens the door for AM.
|
"Yeah? Well it took you long enough to get changed."
>AM retorts as he walks in.
"How have yo- How come you never told me you had a kid?"
>AM points to Tuna, seeing her in PJs.
"Took you long enough to visit me."
| >Dahk laughs
"Its her secret love child with Aleid,"
| "Wow, And you never told me Cain?"
>AM keeps teasing.
|"Oh my god, both of you shut your pie holes."
>Cain smirks at AM's snide remark.
"But... Um... Yeah, me and Aleid are both together now."
>Cain wraps her hand around Aleid's hand.
| "See! I told you she's sick, super duper love sick!"
| "Oh, that's good to hear. And here I was worried that you actually where ill."
>AM shoots a death glare at Dahk.
"And you must be Aleid?"
>AM puts his hand out for a handshake.
| "Not Cain's kid. Cain would be old as fuck if she was my mom. Just like you old man."
>Tuna stuck her tongue out at AM
>>155038
"Angus is a girl? How young was she?"
| "Seeing as to how much trouble you get in to, I just might be your dad."
>AM retorts.
| "Pffft. I doubt it. I mean I don't know who my father is but still, Highly doubt it"
| (I have been called?, sorry fell asleep)
-Eleanore
| (Yee. AM has brought Eleanore to Cain's place)
| (Yeah, AM brought Eleanore along with him to the appartment"
| (let me read up, assume im there)
-Eleanore
| >Eleanore enters, hiding behind AM, she doesn't know most of the people here
"Huh, hi, how are you all"
| >AM whispers to Eleanore
"Great entry."
| >Cain takes a second to recognise Eleanore
"Eleanore! What brings you to my neck of the concrete jungle?"
| >Dahk Tilts her head, trying to get a better view of the girl
"Hm? who's that? you diddn't *also* get a girlfriend did you AM?"
| "Is that why your retiring~ You got a cute girlfriend~?"
>Tuna teases
| "Funny. I'm pretty sure nobody wants broken goods."
>AM holds out a leash.
"But I did get myself a companion. Meet Hope."
>The puppy in question is a smol German Shepherd, only a month old.
| >Eleanore fidgets a bit, but pouts her cheek
"Mr.Anomeat is just a friend, I helped him out with a favor he asked, that's all"
>She turns toward Cain
"I-I huh, well"
>She looks at AM, urging him to speak about the case she asked for
| "I Got myself new plates for my hand..."
>AM shows his engraved brass hand.
"In exchange for a Vepr-12."
| "Vepr-12? does she need to clear out a whole block without reloading?"
>Cain looks up, lost in thought.
"I think we have some base models... somewhere. I'm not sure because the inventory is still not completely sorted."
| "Eleanore?"
>A voice spoke up. From behind the group a woman with gradient blue to black hair. Her gaze was direct and cool despite being in her pajamas...Seemed she cared very little about whether or not she was descent.
"Rosa have you met this one before?"
| >Aleid shook AM's hand and grinned.
"Hello! I'm the baby momma! Wait...or is Cain the baby momma...Look I'm a lilim I just have theoretical knowledge on how this works!"
| >>155203
>AM simply raises an eyebrow.
"Fool me once, Shame on you. Fool me twice, well, you won't."
| >Cain nudges Aleid playfully
"Seriously?"
>>155200
>AM suddenly looks at the very interesting ceiling
"Hmm... what a relaxing grey colour."
| "EIA! Get dressed!"
>Cain pouts.
| > Dahk tilts her head at the Puppy, as if she vaguely remembers it from somewhere, but then is distracted by the mysterious blue haired woman.
"Pajamas? is she also one of your sleep over friends or something?"
| (Oh! Retain mine too sorry!)
| (RETCON*)
| >Dahk finally rolls off the couch and crawls towards the puppy,
"What a cute little fella~"
| >>155204 "What? It's not like I'm nude..."
>Eia wandered back into the room she shared with Tuna and pulled on some clothes. AM might have an odd air of familiarity with her mannerisms.
| >The little fella retracts a little, smelling the alcohol, so does AM.
"Jesus. You smell like a 4 day corpse, and I only saw you yesterday."
| >Eleanore steps out of AM's back, and coughs a little
"Lilim huh, well that's... " >before finishing her phrase she spots the pajama wearing girl and starts to shake weirdly
"Ca-Can Can I pat her?"
>The girl blushes and her eyes are wide open, a smile on her face.
| >>155204
"Hey I'd have your babies if lilim procreation was a thing."
>Aleid joked playfully at Cain.
"Then I'd announce myself just like that to everyone you know~!"
| >>155213
>Eia paused mid motion as she was putting her clothes on. She slowly poked her head out the door.
"I'm sorry...What?"
| >>155212
>Dahk pouts
"Not fair! i only drank uh... how many beers was it last night again?
>She thinks really hard for a moment, but just shrugs
"Well, if i stink, Cain can i borrow your shower then?"
| >>155216
"I was hoping you'd ask for the shower. Go ahead."
>Cain points to the Bathroom
>>155211
| "Still half naked."
>>155214
| >AM finally looses interest in the ceiling, facing Cain and Aleid.
"Well, it's good to know you have someone dedicated."
| >Tuna attempts to pet the puppy
| >>155224
>At first, the puppy is cautious of Tuna, but after remembering her scent, Hope wags her tail, as Tuna pets her.
| "Thaaank yoou"
>Dahk crawls over to the bathroom, before finally getting up leaving out of sight
| >Eia watched Tuna and this woman before leaning back into the room to get dressed.
"See, Rosa? You're adorable. Isn't it nice?"
| >>155228
>Tuna smiles and continues petting the cute doge
>>155231
"Um... Yeah... I guess it's okay..."
| >>155233
>Tuna puffed out her cheeks
"Being adorable only gets you so far. I mean it gets you alot of places but for one people get iffy about dating you if they have to worry about constantly getting questioned by the police. Also very hard to get alchohol"
| >The white haired girl in the red coat, Eleanore, pats Tuna's Head, bliss unmistakble from her face as she giggles
>She suddenly freezes and then stops with a cough
"I-I'm very sorry, I huh, yeah..."
| "Hey now buddy, there all friends."
>AM crouches down to the pup, gently giving it an itch.
| >Eleanore blushes
"I'm sorry, it's a bad habit, huh I apologize a lot sometimes, sorry..."
>Eleanore turns towards the dog seemingly terrified of it
"I-I just noticed the dog, how cute eheheh"
>That's one nervous laugh
| "The puppy is nice"
>Tuna smiles
| "I, Huh, don't like dogs"
>Eleanore sighs
"One chomped on my father's hand when I was younger, I've been terrified of them since..."
>Eleanore laughs a little bit and turns towards Cain
"A-About my request? Is it possible soon?"
| "It's just a pup. For now. Give em' a pet."
>AM offers to Eleanore, turning back to Cain.
"So about that Vepr-12."
| >Cain sighs in frustration.
"I'm not sure. You should go down to the shop and check the inventory, do what you do."
| >AM unlatches the pup, hoping he'd stay with the girls.
"Do you want to come with, Eleanore?"
| "I, huh"
>Eleanore looks at Cain for a bit, blushing ever so slightly
"I'll come with you I guess, I really need that gun"
>She sighs
| "Alright. I'll leave the pup with you, Tuns."
>AM waves as he heads back down to the gallery.
(One sec for the thread.)
| >The pup begins to follow AM, disregarding what He just said.
| >Tuna attempts to pick up the pup
"No. Your dad has to go do stuff"
| >The pup whines, giving Tuna puppy eyes.
| "I knows. It's not safe in a room full of guns for a tiny puppy. I will pet you until he comes back. Don't worry. If he doesn't come back I will go kick his ass and make him come back for you"
| >The pup barks in agreement. It seems to have taken a liking to you.
| >Dahk stumbles out of the bathroom, naked.
"Heeey Cain? can i borrow some cloths? Mine all smell like booze"
| >Tuna rubbed the puppy's tummy
"Good dog"
| >Cain sighs.
"Sure, just not my bras or panties. and put your stuff in the washing machine."
>Cain goes to find Dahk some clothes, and comes back with sweatpants, and a loose fitting shirt.
| >The pup licks Tuna's face in response, waging it's tail happily.
| > Dahk puts on the cloths and lets out a sigh of relief
"It's so nice to have a change of clothes for once... the only thing that could make this better would be if I had a beer by my side... or maybe Angus.
>she sighs again, and looks at the dog and tuna
"Aw....."
| >Tuna starts giggling as the dog licks her
| >The puppy, Or 'Hope', stops licking, trying to get it's way back down on the ground.
| >Tuna gently sets the puppy on the ground
| >And it instantly runs past Dahk, and to Aleid.
| >Dahk pouts
"...Aw...
| >Tuna follows the puppy
"Hey! Come back!"
| >The puppy runs past Aleid too, makeing a u turn and running past them, and between Tuna's legs, to the front door.
| >Dahk jumps up and points
"This was a ruse! After that puppy!"
| >the puppy barks at the front door, scratching it to get out, but ultimately fails.
| >Dahk blinks a few times, then plops back down on the sofa
"Ugh... I can't believe i just..."
| "Whats wrong?"
>Cain plops next to Dahk.
| "Do you have to go potty?"
>Tuna asks the puppy while looking for the leash
| >Hope barks, and gives up, walking over To Tuna.
| >Dahk groans
"I got so eager to chase that dog that I completely forgot the doot was closed..."
| "Oh you. Anyway, what do you guys want for breakfast?"
>Cain stands up, going to the kitchen.
| >Dahk jokingly yells
"BEER!"
| "guess not..."
>Tuna pets the pup
"eggs and bacon? I like my eggs sunny-side up though. I won't eat them scrambled"
| >Hope wiggles her tail in happiness, and rushes over to Dahk, wanting to learn her scent, sniffs her.
| "Oh? trying to learn my scent? Not like i smell this good all the time, most of the tine it's booze."
>She laughs pets the doge
"Cain? just make whatever you want, I'm not a picky eater"
| >Cain begins cooking for Tuna and Dahk.
"Coming right up!"
| "Maan Alied you should just marry vain already, she's already the perfect housewife."
| >Aleid laughed and blushed a little.
"Oi...We just started dating. I'll take my time thanks~. Kind of need to get to know her first!"
>Eia finally returned wearing some black jeans and one of cain's t-shirts. Although they didn't fit they were decent enough to merely look like some sort of sleek fashion statement. (AKA perhaps Eia was more shapely than she usually let on.)
"...Well listen to that, Tuna's finally started asking people for things. I'm touched. Cain, I'll help you."
| >Hope runs in to the kitchen smelling the food cooking!
"Thanks for the help Eia! Hey little buddy!"
>Cain finishes cooking for Tuna and Dahk.
| >Dahk scrolls through her phone, giggling at all the pictures of Angus she (secretly) took
"So cute... Oh and uh, Smells great!"
| >Hope tires to him up and get some food, but is too smol.
>Cain just watched over him, while cooking her own food, and Eia's.
"Hey little buddy, you'll get your portion in a sec."
>Cain turns her head to the door, shouting in Aleid's direction
"ALEID! Get over here now!"
|
|
| >Aleid laughed a little, leaned out from behind the door, putting them face to face with each other at the end of her yell.
"Eh? If you yell like that I'll think something happened. What do you want in such a hurry?"
| "I want a hug after all this cooking..."
>Cain pouts.
| "hug! hug! hug!"
>Tuna cheerfully chanted
| >Hope ignores all this commotion, and tries to reach Tuna's breakfast on the counter top!
| >Tuna blocks the pup
"No. My food. You will get some in a sec"
| >Hope uses Puppy eyes!
| "Nooooo"
>Tuna whines
"I have not even eatten yet!"
| >Hope uses whimper!
| "Wait."
>Tuna puffs out her cheeks
"Good doggies wait"
| "You heard Tuna, I'll make you some bacon, smol floof."
>Cain says to Hope, still waiting for a hug.
| >Aleid quite causally moves as if she's about to hug the woman and does so...adding in a playful kids on top!
"Hug delivered, have a kiss for your troubles."
| (jesus phone. I said kiss!)
| (lol this relationship is escalating fast already considering kids lol xD)
| (Tfw first kiss and already moms)
>Dahk eats her food, and overhears Aleid's comment
"Wait, i thought you aren"t supposed to kiss on the first date?"
| >>159131
"Error! Does not compute! Dahk acknowledgement systems data is corrupted! Going into safe mode! Ignoring Dahk!"
>Aleid replied before slipping her eyes back to Cain to see if she'd gotten away with her breaking her own rules!
| "Hehehe~"
>Cain goes giggily after the hug and kiss, still cooking.
"So what did you want for breakfast, rulebreaker?"
| >There's a knock on the door.
"I'm Back!"
| >Dahk gets up to open the door, seeing how cain's busy cooking
"Ey, Welcome back AM, if you want breakfest cain's cooking it now."
| "I wish. I got to go actually. It's time for my last job."
>AM comes in, frown on his face, underneath the bandages.
| "Ah, that super secrer job you can't tell anyone about. Well, just don't die."
>She turns around, looking for hope
"Now where'd that doggo go...
| >Hope runs right between her legs, Jumping for joy that AM came back!
"Hey there buddy! You made some friends?"
>Am asks
>Hope barks as acknowledgement to AM's question.
>AM picks Hope up, petting him.
"Yeah, the job is pretty harmless. It's a gun dev job."
| "Hmmn. I don't know what I want for breakfast."
> Aleid admitted thoughtfully before inspecting what was available.
"I'll have what you're having Cain...Also be safe, AM. I'm sure you don't care much for the fact but somehow you have friends."
| "I guess it's eggs in a nest for us, Aleid~"
>Cain says, as she begins to prepare some.
"AM, Before you go, I just want you to know... That I'm grateful for everything you have set for me. Promise to visit, alright?"
| "Thanks guys. I'll keep my hands clean and such."
>AM waves to them, as he leaves.
| "Bye Bye old man! Better not make me have to help your ass again"
>Tuna playfully stuck her tongue out at him
| "Then make sure Cain doesn't have to patch you up every other time!"
>AM closes behind him, leaving to his car, drives off.
| >Eia watched him go while eating a slice of bread, her gaze slipped to Tuna.
"I still don't understand your investment in him. But whatever...Yours is what you decide to do. Just don't expect me to help him with you."
| "I'm not. He just helped me when the techno zombies were about. Gave me a place to crash"
>Tuna grabs her plate
| "Pfft. First time I ever heard Anyone refer to him as old man was you, So why the nickname?"
>Cain pokes at Tuna
| >>160167
"Well I tend. to call him kid she. he is doing something stupid. I call him old man when he is being an old fart for lack of a better term"
>Tuna snickered
"I mean come on. 'This will be my last job. I'm too old for this.' Sounds like some cliche line from a movie"
| >Aleid laughed.
"And here I thought you were just accepting the fact that you're trapped in a brat's body."
| "Yeah... I hope it's his last."
>Cain lowers her head a little.
| >>160217
"Hey I may have a child's body but ima adult. You people have to pay adult prices"
>Tuna turns to Cain
"Are you okay?"
| "I just don't want him doing this stuff anymore. I almost lost him once."
>She aggressively chops ingredients for her omelette, tearing up.
"It's probably the onions doing something to my eyes, don't worry."
| >Dahk finishes her meal and gets up.
"Well, it's not like he has a choice, contractual agreements and everything. Just be glad it's in weapon dev and not something dangerous."
>She goes over to the wash, pulling out her ol trenchcoat
"I should probably head out to do work soon too, lost a looot of money last night."
| "Yeah, We were able to smell that before you took your shower."
>Cain jests, trying to lighten the mood.
| >Aleid wraps her arms around Cain quietly and nuzzles her chin into her shoulder as gently as possible. She'd seeked to comfort her with the action.
| >Cain stops cooking as Aleid wraps herself around her, retuning the hug, still crying in to her shoulder.
| >Dahk laughs
"Hey! I *only* gave free drinks to an entire bar"
>She exits with a last comment
"Take care of eachother now kay?"
| "Oh we will~"
>Cain retorts.
|
| >Tuna finishes her breakfest and gets changed while all this happens
"Hey Eia... Should we get going? don't we have an explosion to check out?"
| >Eia nodded and glanced at the two in the kitchen.
"Indeed...I suppose we should get on that. Though at this point 'which' becomes an important point of discussion."
>Aleid smiles faintly and runs her fingers through Cain's hair.
"You two be careful. I'm gonna stay here a bit~. I have a crybaby to manage."
>After teasing playfully she kisses the top of Cain's head.
"You need a break, Cain. You've been wound up tight for a while don't you think?"
| >Tuna laughed
"You two have fun"
>She turned to Eia
"I believe it was a limousine explosion close to the lock and barrel we were supposed to investigate"
|
|
| "a limousine apperently went kaboom"
>Tuna said casually
"Just another everyday occurrence at this point
| "Mmm."
>Cain slinks back down in to Aleid's shoulder.
|
|
| >Sometime later Aleid got caught watching the holo news, PROBABLY still doing the huging-snuggle game with Cain depending on how the woman was feeling. She saw it her duty to see that Cain was emotionally stable before she even considered heading home...plus this War stuff was kind of a doozy.
"Geeeze...Well fortunately that war ended before it could even begin. Heheh...I'm gonna have fun with that VinderTech meme that's making its rounds."
| >Dahk knocks on the door
"Caain, i need a new gun"
| >>167014
>Cain has now finally gotten better, not happy, but definitely determined.
"Thank god nobody got hurt. Thanks for staying around Aleid."
>Cain gets up and over to the door, and uses the peephole to see Dahk.
"Dahk! What happened to your old gun?"
| "Well, you know that sphere of light? Me an AM were there. Tried to stop a gang from shooting up a bar. Then the Phoenix corps shows up with robo cop and we ended up getting arrested for 'public intoxication". Just your average tuesday with AM.
| >Cain opens the door, letting Dahk in.
"Did he cause that? You still haven't explained where your gun went!"
| "Nah, some girl set someone on fire, anyway they told me to drop my gun, so i did. And i was arrested before i could get it back
| >A loli follows Dahk in
"Oh, and this guy wants a job. You're offering right?"
| >Cain sighs.
"At least for once he didn't start something... Anyway, you got any preference in gun? I need to keep my mind off things."
| >Cain blankly looks at the loli...
"Yeah? How did you know?"
| >Dahk stretches a bit
"A Pistol or revolver i guess, don't care much for the automatic stuff"
>The loli cowers a bit, but finally speaks up
"Uh.. Danger/u/ told me"
| (ID Change)
>Cain relaxes a little
"Alright. Dahk, head inside right now, I need to see if little miss here can work here."
>Cain grabs her keys.
"Lets go to the workplace?"
| (assuming inside is the appartment)
>Dahk goes inside, crashing on the couch.
>The loli follows cain cautiously
"So uh... what is this job anyway?"
| >>167322
(Yes.)
>Cain leads her downstairs, in to the gallery. Closing the apartment door. (Other thread is in future)
"It's a basic desk job. You will be answering questions, taking in new paintings and pieces, watching the gallery."
|
|
| >Marie enters the apartment with cain, humming and eager to settle in.
| >Cain leads her to the spare bedroom, opening the door.
"Si here is your bedroom, and you got a wardrobe too. I think. Let me check it."
>Cain opens it, looking inside,and sighs with relief.
"Yep, all good!"
| >Marie notices the sigh of relief, and asks earnestly
"Was there something you were afraid of inside?"
| "oh you know, panties, bras, guns. It's surprising empty..."
>Cain casually shrugs.
| >Dahk materializes in the closet and laughs,
"So you *are* adopting this smol child"
>Marie is spooked again, but atleast she doesn't faint
| >Cain whaps Dahk on the back of the head out of reaction, and takes a second to compose herself.
"I see you are coming out the closet?"
| >>170410
>Dahk winces
"Ow... it was just a joke... And i was already out of the closet!"
>Marie calms down and stifles back a laugh
"Pff..."
| >Cain gives Marie a nudge, hinting at something.
"So yeah, This is Marie, she's finally staying with me, now that the adoption papers have gone through."
| >Dahk gives a confused look
"Diddn't you just start dating like... a few days ago? isn't it a bit fast to adopt?"
>Marie feels the nudge and stutters
"W-well that's just how cute i am! they couldn't resist adopting me!"
| "Took the words out of my mouth."
>Cain gives Marie a hug, trying to pretend to be a mom.
| "T-thanks... mom"
>Marie wriggles a bit, but mostly hugs back
>Dahk gives a suspicious look
"Oh? does she know everything about the 'family' buisness?"
| >Cain glares death daggers to Dahk, slowly letting go of Marie.
"Of course, she knows about the antique trading!"
| >Dahk sweats a bit
"O-oh ok, just making sure. Oh well look at the time i better go!"
>She awkwardly leaves the room
>Marie looks confused, but shrugs
"You sure have a lot interesting friends mom... i mea-"
>he starts blushing again
| "Haha~ I'll leave you to settle in here, I have to talk to Dahk about privacy."
>Cain also leaves the room, and heads in to the kitchen.
"So Dahk. About that 'art piece' you wanted."
| >marie shrugs again, but look a comfy bed! he dives into it and enjoys the softness
>Dahk stutters more, not wishing to annoy Cain more
"O-oh right, yeah, let's go take a look"
| "Yeah. Are you ok? Did I stare too hard?"
>Cain says as they head down.
| >Dahk sighs in relief as she heads down
"I almost thought lasers were gonna shoot out..."
| >Cain slings her arm around Dahk, griping her shoulder.
"Good. Because we also have to talk about you snooping around in my bedrooms, and subtlety. So lets head downstairs to my office?"
| "Sure, let's..."
| >Cain comes back up to the apartment, to check on Marie.
"You all set up?"
| >Marie, having finished unpacking, was napping in her new room. He gets up, a little startled
"Huh wha-? oh... Uh huh!"
| (Her and he in the same sentence?)
>Cain backtracks sheepishly.
"Oh I'm sorry! I didn't know you fell asleep! It's about dinner time, you want to order or cook?"
| (Le trap flavor is getting to me)
"Is it just us, or is aleid here too? I wouldn't want to bother you to cook if it's just us"
| "Aleid's probably in the bedroom, taking a nap. I guess we should order rather than cook. You pick the place."
>Cain plops down on to the bed next to Marie.
"Soooooooo tired..."
| >Marie's face grows tomato red, and she rolls out of bed haphazardly and stumbles out
"D-does pizza sound good?"
| >Cain half-asleep already, tries to get up.
"Hmm? Yeah. And energy drink too, please~."
| /Uhm... Hello Neo-Dominos? I'd like to place an order.../
/Uh huh... two large pizzas with.../
"Cain what should i get for toppings?"
| "Anything but pineapple!"
>Cain shouts out of the bedroom.
| /A supreme and a meatlovers, i guess.../
/Oh and could i also get a Monst☆r?/
/Yeah, deliver it to (Wherever this apartment is)/
| >Sooner or later, Cain finally gets up and moves to the couch, as a drone knocks on a window.
"Marie? Is that the pizza?"
| "Either that or a drone strike..."
>She goes over to the window and opens it hopefully getting a pizza.
| >The drone flies in, dropping off 2 pizzas and 1 canned drink, zipping out as it zipped in.
"Foooood~~"
| >Marie opens a box and takes a slice out of the pizza
"Mmm... pizza..."
| (God damn it, now I want Red Bull or Monster...)
>Cain gets up and walks over to pizza, grabbing a slice a munching it down in 2 bites.
"Mmmmm..."
| (Saame)
>Marie takes another bite of the pizza,
"This is the life, eating pizza with mom all warm and cozy..."
| (It's 2 am, and I'm drinking a 500ml can of monster. This can only work out well.)
>Cain suppresses a giggle, as she takes her canned drink, and drinks it.
| "Huh? did i say something weird?"
>Marie gets another slic
"Man... how'd you get such a nice place anyway? can't be easy to get into art trading art such a young age
| "Yeah! You called me mom! We can't even be that different in age!"
>Cain laughs
"I had a mentor who showed me the ropes, maybe you've heard of him? AM?"
| >Marie blushes a bit and shifts her eyes
"Depends, how old do you think I am?"
>She thinks for a bit
"..I think I heard his name once or twice, but never in context."
| "I'd say you are about... 16?"
>Cain sighs, as she takes another sip of the drink.
"AM was my employer, but he just said fuck this, and handed everything over to me."
| "I wish i was still 16..."
>Marie giggles
"Antique trading that stressful eh? or maybe it was a midlife crisis or something..."
| "Really? How old are you?"
>Cain leans in, interested to find out.
| >Marie fidgits
"Uh... i think i'm turning 25 this month..."
| >Cain leans back in complete surprise!
"WHAT?! You're only a year younger than me?"
| "Yeah... i get that a lot..."
>Marie laughs a bit
"Asked a doctor about it once, they diddn't understand either"
| "What, did the doctors also think you where a girl?"
>Cain Smirks
| >Marie groans
"Yep, and they wanted to "check"... *sigh* do you have any drinks or am i "too young"?"
| "I guess I will make an exception for tonight."
>Cain winks, giggling.
"There should be some beer in the fridge... No wait that's probably Dahk's... Check the top left cupboard, there should be AM's collection of spirits, he said I could have em."
| >Marie goes off, and comes back with a bottle of liquor and mumbling
"Dahk huh..."
>He pours himself a shot and downs it instantly
"Ugh... of all the pervs i met Dahk's probably the most stubborn... Well atleast she led me to you."
>He leans his head on cain's shoulder
| "Could you believe that she was looking for my panties? Sometimes I wonder why I bother..."
>Cain pats Marie.
"So did you name yourself Marie?"
| "sounds like her allright..."
>Marie rubs up against cainn enjoying the pats
"It's technically my last name, it's 'french', or somethin...."
>He takes another shot
"My folks named me 'You' cause they lost a bet, but that's waay too confusing..."
| >>172599
>Cain takes away the bottle from Marie, but keeps the pats comming
"I guess Marie it is, but let's cut down on the drinking, I don't want a mini-Dahk to deal with..."
| "mmmeh... thanks mommy.."
>He nods off and starts sleepimg on cain's shoulder
| "Oh jeez..."
>Cain lets Marie sleep on her shoulder, still eating pizza.
| >A little bit in the morning, Marie bugs cain a bit
"Moom is it ok if i bring some people over for my birthday party?"
| >>173287
"Hmmm... Who are these people that you want to bring over?"
>Cain says as she is brushing her teeth.
| "Er, my girlfriend and a... Zombie? i dunno he really likes porn though... They go by OS and GG?"
| >Cain finishes brushing her teeth as she was thinking, sighing
"Fine, but if they trash the place, the can expect a 16th century beat down with a mace. I guess I'll go get cake and decorations."
| "-No thats's okay someone else is delivering a cake... besides i don't want to bother you anymore..."
>He sneaks back out
| "Huh? Do you not like decorations?"
>Cain stands confused...
| "No i do! but... but i don't really want to bother you anymore... I'll get them myself!"
| "Well look at you! All independent and responsible! I still got to go and get you a present I guess."
| "So when do you plan on throwing the party?"
>Cain turns to Marie, after looking at the thread.
| >Marie looks up thoughtfully
"Tomorrow, i guess."
| "How many people do you plan to have over? Becuase a few of them... put me off..."
>Cain backtracks, not realising she is talking about Marie's friends
"Not that I care who you invite! I-I'm sure they are nice!"
| >Marie sighs
"No it's fine, i'm a worried myself about... a lot of them, but the more the merrier right?
| "As long as the don't cause trouble. Or hurt my little Marie!"
>Cain pouts at the idea of someone causing trouble
| "T-thanks mom"
>The next day, the party's preparations were in order. A bunch of streamers and ribbons littered the place, A drone had brought in a cake at some point, which now sat comfortably in the kitchen. Marie can be seen sleeping on the couch in her pajamas with a blanket perhaps placed there by Cain.
| (But Double cake...)
| >Cain stands over her, cup o' black in hand.
"Wakey wakey sleepy head!"
| >Marie yawns, rubbing her eyes
"Huh? oh... thanks dad..."
| "Huh? No that's Aleid..."
>Cain put's down the cup of coffee for Marie.
"But in all, Happy 25th!"
| "Huh...? Well, i guess you do cook..."
>He takes the coffee and sips it, blowing on it to not scald her tongue
"Oh right it is today!"
>she puts down the coffee and scrambles out
"Can't be seen with bedhair"
|
| >A few hours have passed, and the loli, all dolled up, mopes on the couch, munching on leftover pizza
| > Through the new found silence, a knock on the door occurs!
| >Marie raises her head
"Oh, could it be?!"
>She goes over to open the door
| > Felix, in full uniform, stands with a large box in his hands. He extends his arms out to Marie.
"Kenny couldn't make it, so this is from both of us."
| >Marie looks a tad disappointed, bit his smile is back quickly as he picks up the box, and goes off to place it somewhere
| > Felix chuckles and steps inside.
"Hopefully that's an invite in.."
| >Another knock resounds on the door
