"That is why this exercise is so important." The housekeeper told him. "I know that you children are looking for away to escape your pasts. However as your caretaker I can not allow you to do that. You can't forget your past. You can't leave it behind you. Whether you want to admit it or not your past affects who you are today. It will affect your futures. You have to deal with it and make peace with it. Trust me. I know this."

Hadley's gaze remained on Keegan as he spoke, she knew he was referring to her and the look determined it. She mouthed a 'thankyou' towards him as her eyes fell to the floor, her arms wrapping around her petite body in protection. Looking up at the houskeeper after she spoke, Hadley gave her own opinion of the matter her voice shaking a bit as she did so, "That is the problem, I can't forget the past, and I can't leave it behind me. It eats at me day in and day out, ripping up what childhood I had and destroying the life I have to come. You say you can't grant me escape, but being here has already started that process! the girl's voice was trembling, but she continued, But for you to stand there and parade us in costumes and games as if our pasts are some fun fucking birthday party activity for this child- well, I- I" the anger and fear had taken over again, as Hadley's young girl figured transformed into a spider, much different than the one she had originally came with. This one was brown recluse; much smaller and filled with more trepidation than her original.

Slowly she crawled back into a slit within one of the wall's cracks. Letting herself cool down from her monologue.

Melissa was about to walk over and attempt to cancel her power, in an attempt to talk to her, yet Keegan intervened. "Let her go, Melissa. If she needs time, we'll make time," he says, blocking her path with an open arm. She nods and he lets it rest. "As for you," he turns back to the Housekeeper, "we know that, but as she said this process has started already in some of us. My past isn't as bad compared to some here, so I can't talk, but I know a few," he now looks at Melissa from the corner of his eye before diverting his attention back to the Housekeeper, "who both can't forget and are in the process of making amends." He pauses for a moment and scratches at the thinly-lined hairs at his chin. "Look, I understand what you're trying to do, but trust me this isn't the best way to go about doing it. I don't want to be the one telling you what to do, yet reminding people of some of the horrific events from the past is sure to cause chaos. They'll never forget, yet if you couldn't already tell, by just being here they're in the process of moving on!"

"They are moving on." The housekeeper acknowledged. But they aren't dealing with it. I have been in charge of this orphanage a long time. I know what helps and what doesn't. I am not trying to make fun of anyone or make anyone feel bad. But alot of you come here and hide from the past. Some," she said looking at Melissa. "Are trying to make amends without dealing with the past. You can't do that. I'm not asking you to act out your whole history here. I am asking you to pick one person from your past to tell us about."

Of course, right then, a boy with white hair and silver eyes peeked in the door. He seemed very shy, and didn't seem to want to come inside. He just watched the others while they talked, and hoped that nobody would notice him.

Keegan sighs and scratches the back of his head. "Mel, by all means, give your own opinion. I can't speak for ya." He says, looking at her, since the Housekeeper was referring to her.

Melissa closes her eyes for a few moments and takes a few deep breaths. "What Keegan is trying to say is: Why try to make amends when there's nothing to fix? I'm content with my past, if that's what happened then I can accept that, but the past is the past, and reminding everyone about it only brings back tears that were lost long ago." She pauses to look at Keegan, giving him a smile, and then turns to the rest of the children at the Orphanage. "This place will have its own history in our hearts - a place where we can all create new, happy memories, together, somewhat like a family - and we'll never forget it. Just like how many of us won't forget what's happened oh so long ago. As with Keegan, I don't mind playing my part, as we still had rays of light that overthrew the darkness. But others' might not have a person they can recreate simply. Also, this seems rather hypocritical coming from a woman who hasn't shared any of her history whatsoever. I expect you'll be doing this activity too?"

"That's just it. The past isn't the past. The past affect who you are today and who you will become. You have to DEAL with it. You cant forget it or bury it. You have to learn to live with it." The housekeeper told her. "Of course. I shall go first if it helps."

"I think that would help, especialy now that you made me remember what a terrible life I had." Andrew said, the floor seemingly bending under his weight, it seems that he turned himself into lead. "So by all means, just enlighten us." he said barely holding down the anger in him.

Melody looks around. She didn't want everyone getting upset on her birthday. She still hadn't opened any presents really. She sighs and walks out. She couldn't deal with it. She sits against the wall outside the door and just stares into space.

"Are you ok?" Diana asks in calm comforting tone. "Let me guess, you don't like when people get angry?" she asks

She looks up at him. "No." She smiles at her. "Want to come and open the presents left in the music room with me?" She asks.

"I think we'll get a few ideas to better convey ourselves watching you, Madam." Pyktis replied in a calm tone. Afterall, the woman was trying to help them there was no need to be upset about it.

The room though didn't lend to that same thought Pyktis was having, Keegan and Melissa being quite vehement about it. As one who would probably be unable to put on a good show, Pyktis was assured that everyone would slowly come around.

Well, mostly. It seemed Melody had decided to steer clear of any unpleasant argument on her big day so she excused herself from the lot. Pyktis tugged on to Katherin's hand asking her "What do you think, Kat? I find the idea quite good personally."

Nerox awoke at the sound of melody playing with the kitten. He yawned and stretched his arms and legs out. He looks at melody and asks " is that your cat?"

Kyo was surprised to see so much opposition to the idea. It shouldn't be so difficult to portray just one person out of the many from one's past, should it?

...Then again, perhaps it was just different for him. Some, if not several of these children, seemed to have come from very recent tragedies. He didn't know about the rest of them. He was pretty different; he'd had maybe almost more than three years to deal with his past. Granted, they were in nearly complete solitude, and he had no idea what was even real for most of the time, but still.

He still wanted to try the activity himself, though.
He had an idea for what he wanted to do already. He took out and typed out the question on the tablet, but he decided to wait before asking, since the housekeeper was giving a demonstration.
