[IC] Beastly

[XxLyraxX]

Mara blinked in surprise when suddenly he knelt before her so he could look into her eyes. She blushed again and nodded shyly. She gave him a timid smile and reached out one small hand to shake his; blushing even more at the contact.

[ShadowVentus]

Inigo's hand was warm and gentle. He shook her hand happily. "I just know you'll love it here. In the end, it'll be your choice if you want to leave or not, so no worries!" Inigo says, simply trying to make Mara feel more comfortable.

Megan nodded at Ruko as she stood up from the chair walking next to him. "Soo. How can you and your brothers live in this huge place? Like to be honest. I would get a little boring but then I wont because you guys have so much things here." Megan smiled crossing her arms close to her chest while watching Inigo and Mara talking. And then turned her attention to Ruko. "Sooo why is your other brother like that? Whats the deal with him?"

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

"Um...I guess we're used to it. We've lived here for a long time, after all. If you get bored, exploring is always an option, I suppose." He laughed a bit awkwardly. "Maybe you'll find some secret passages or something." Turning to face her, he smiled a bit before blushing and looking away. He glanced over at Inigo and Mara, who seemed to be getting along very well.
Once the topic of his brother came up, he looked down toward the floor. "Zeph has been acting a bit odd for a while now. I don't really know what is going on. I thought he might just be frustrated, but it feels like there's something else..." He shakes his head. "He's never acted quite like that before. He's been a little difficult in the past, but he's always made it through introductions, at least..."

[Savi]

Faeya looked up when she heard the brother's name that she argued with. She had been following silently so not to get lost by herself. She scoffed but stayed silent.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

Ruko turns the corner and walks to a stairway. "I'm sure he'll be fine later. Just don't worry about him for now." He starts climbing the stairs. "Now, you're free to go anywhere in the house, but please don't enter anyone's bedrooms without permission. Oh, and please avoid the door leading under the house in the back hallway. We've locked it just in case, but if you find it unlocked, please don't go in there."

[Savi]

Faeya walked away as soon as they gave her permission, although her defiant thinking was nagging her to go discover the area she was told not too. She was tempted, but she'd listen... for now. Faeya made her way down a hallway and saw a door that was far away from the bedrooms, so she knew it hadn't been a room. She opened the door softly and looked around. She instantly knew she was in the study. She looked around at all the books and her eyes wondered with awe.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

Ruko stopped in the hallway where the guest bedrooms were located. "All right, so now you know where your rooms are, so feel free to take some time to settle in or look around if you like." Seeing Faeya already walking away, he decided that it would probably be best to leave them to get used to the house. "Um... If anyone needs me, I'll be in the kitchen." With that, he started off toward the stairs.

[paigesweetheart]

Megan sighed seeing the others walking away from eachother. "Oh...." she turned her head now seeing Kuro walking away. She decided to walk begind him. "Hey hey!" She smiled tapping his shoulder. "Sooooo. What's uppp?!" As they were entering the Kitchen her stomach grumbeled a little.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

Ruko looked over at Megan as he walked into the kitchen. "A-ah. N-not much. Was there something you needed, perhaps?" Hearing her stomach grumble, the boy chuckled a bit. "I guess, maybe that's a yes? Dinner probably won't be for a while, but I can make something you can have right now if you like."

[Ayleth]

Layla had remained silent for the whole introduction, simply choosing to observe the girls she would be living with, and the boys who would be hosting them. After each individual had gone their own way, she took a quick look into her own bedroom before heading off. Her nerves were high due to the situation and she hoped to lower them by exploring the mansion. If she were lucky, she would stumble across a music room, or a ballroom with the orchestra still set up. One of the few things that could calm the girl's nerves was the harp.

As she walked around the mansion slowly, her sapphire eyes took in everything they could, trying to memorize a mental map of the building's layout.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

Zephiel

Zephiel was in the garden, taking his irritation out on some weeds. There were gardeners that took care of the plants, but this helped him relieve stress. Besides, he liked plants; there was always something fascinating about how they were capable of so much without ever moving from their spots.

Axle was swimming laps in the lake, he has had so much fun at the lake. The lake is more of a loch if anything, Axle had figured the other brothers didn't know, he swam so deep, in his beastly form, it actually scared himself. There is a very out of place chair on the shore that Oreo is napping on.

[Savi]

Faeya smiled as she walked around the library and glanced out the window. She saw the guy... what was his name? Zephiel? Yeah, that was it. She saw Zephiel attacking the weeds and her eyebrow rose. She left the library and made her way to the garden. She crosse her arms as she stood behind him. "Attacking a few weeds won't help your anger when they're all gone."

[Ayleth]

Eventually Layla sighed and gave up her search. Either what she was looking for didn't exist, or she was more turned around than she realized. She stopped and gazed out a window, resorting to one of her next favorite ways to relax -- nature. Sapphire eyes lit up at the sight of the lake behind the mansion and she eagerly retraced her steps and made her way out of the mansion to the shores, finding an adorable dog relaxing in a chair.

Kneeling down, she brought herself eye level with the canine, holding her hand out to it. "Well hello there little one. Would you mind sharing that chair with me? I promise to pet you and we both can enjoy the lake together..." She gave a small smile as if she was waiting for the corgi to respond.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

Zephiel turned from his destruction of the local weed population at the sound of Faeya's voice. "Oh, it's you again. Are you that desperate to annoy me?" He turned back to the weeds, pulling them out and tossing them aside. "They'll just come back again later, like everything else that irritates me seems to," he grumbled.

[Savi]

Faeya rolled her eyes and said "of course, because it's my life mission to ruin all of your happiness and your weeds." She looked around and her eyes widened in awe. "Wow, it's beautiful" she said softly. She glanced at Zephiel before continuing her sight-seeing. "Did you do all this?"

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

"Most of it. I did have help, of course. And a lot of it is maintained by the gardeners, since I can't be out here all the time." He stops pulling on the weeds for a moment to look at another part of the garden. Looks like they missed the roses again. I'll have to take care of that once I'm done here. He turns back to his work, finishing his conquest of the weeds before bundling them up to keep them together.

[Ayleth]

After a little while, she picked up the corgi and settled into the chair, letting the canine rest on her lap as she scritched between its ears. The nerve of these boys, demanding women to be brought to their mansion. Darn aristocrats, thinking they are better than the common class. And the attitudes on some of these boys! Gracious! Layla had a feeling she was going to spend most of her time here annoyed more than anything else -- especially since she didn't have her harp anymore.

[Charlie]

Axle finally comes up for air. "Yes, new record." Axle says as he finally emerges from, the water. He then notices Layla and begins to swim over. "Hey, you're the quiet girl. I'm not sure my brothers noticed you during Zeph's rage." He says as he makes it to shore, his silver hair gleaming.
