-Rose-
"Thanks Kira, I just might take you up on that offer at some point," Rose replied, letting her expression relax into an easy smile with a quiet sigh. She still wasn't happy about being dragged to the D'finn nest, but she figured if she had to go to the D'finn nest she might as well try to relax and enjoy everyone's company as much as possible. "By the way, it's good to see you again Emlyn! It's been awhile!" Rose glanced back at Kira as her nose wrinkled, and guessed that it was probably from the scent of blood in her drink. Rose blushed further, the dash of pink spreading from the apples across the lightly freckled bridge of her nose. Though embarrassed and ashamed, Rose forced herself to keep the lighthearted smile in place, and simple took a calming breath. Rose quickly put away the ingredients and dishes she had used to make the drinks before making her away around the counter, all the while wishing away the pink and red tones from her cheeks. 

Rose followed everyone out of the soda shop, sliding past Connor with her drink gently cradled to her chest. She locked the door quickly before falling into the line on the left of Roland. Rose looped her arm through Roland's and glanced up at him, forcing a slight smile as unease and nervousness readily shone in her eyes. Rose was good at forcing smiles and hiding her true emotions, but for those close to her, her emotions were always evident in her eyes. When Connor started talking about how the mother might end up picking a fight, she pulled her eyes away from Roland and glanced over at Connor. "Oh wonderful...," Rose muttered under her breath quietly. Rose always tried to be nice to people, and be everyone's friend, but for some reason a lot of people tended to misunderstand her intentions. She'd always been a bit different, and Rose figured that was why she never felt like she totally fit in, and why she was close to only a couple people who tended to be different like her. Rose decided that she was going to do her best to just keep her mouth shut, because the last thing she needed to do was piss off another D'finn and end up starting a fight.
