[IC] Curse of the Beast

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

While the others continued talking, Val quickly left the room and returned a few minutes later with a bowl of tomato soup. "I hope that you enjoy, madam." As soon as he had it placed in front of Lilly, he moved quickly to assist the other servants in taking care of the requests made by the others, filling up glasses and delivering dishes to their proper places. He gave a bow as soon as it seemed that everything was in order. "If you require anything else, please feel free to call. I hope that you all enjoy your meal."

Griffin grabbed his salmon in his hands. He didnt bother with utensils or table manned. He simply bite into it like the animal he barely kept within. He didnt look up. He knew that his behavior was going to ushbthe girls further away but he couldn't help it. He needed to eat if he was going to keep control.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

"Help you...do what?" Viviana stared at Lee in confusion as she started poking at her salmon with her fork. "How are we supposed to do something like that? And...also, that sounded really weird when you said it." She picked up some of the food with the utensil and quickly lifted it to her mouth. wondering if it was a bad idea to say something like that. The way she pointed it out was kind of weird, too, wasn't it? Might as well move on, though. "So...this means that you are monsters, then? And if so...then...because you still don't really look like it, so...why? Or how?"

Lee's face contorted into a expretion of pain at the womans question. " See, you've heard of the stories of werewolfs, humans that turned in beasts, were kinda like that, except that the younger you are, the harder it is for you to control your transformaction". He explained as he picked at his salom,. " Eat with your fork Griffen, no need to look any more beastly than we already are. As for your help... we kinda need to, I don't know, fall in what you call love... I think, prophecys are never clear". confused.

Griffin growled low in his throat at his brothers words. But he knew fighting would only make his struggle for control worse. He grabbed his fork trying to stay in control. He was glad that Lee was answering the girls questions. He wasn't sure he could manage human words.

" That will be hard if i get depressed, which i kinda already am. " Ali said getting quieter with each word. This situation was getting stranger by the minute. Putting her spoon down Ali picked up the sketch book and layer it on her lap staring down at the drawings. Ali's cheeks where a few shades of red as she remembered what a no life she was. Who could fall in love with her she was sent here to be eaten she barely wanted to do anything but curl in a ball.

Xavier cut at the salmon with a knife and grabbed the severed piece with a fork and ate it. He then grabbed a napkin and whipped his mouth. " I believe that's why you were sent here to stay. So us four could possibly fall in "Love" and stop are attacks upon the town." Xavier puts the napkin back on his lap and continues to eat.

”Yeah I’m a bit confused too,” Mira said, setting down her glass and tapping her butter knife on the table in a bored way as she echoed Vivi. Her eyes glanced to the youngest brother as he, at least she took it as, they were like werewolves in a way. Each had their own ‘full moon’ that turned them into beasts. Well, wasn’t that peachy.

She heard the creepy drawer girl mention something about people hating her and just rolled her eyes. Geez emo people were depressing. One of the other brothers spoke up (Mira ignore the garden conversation, as she was not a fifty year old grandmother) and nodded as Lee explained the girls were supposed to calm them down. A sneaky smirk played on Mira’s lips as she thought to herself the fun it would be to screw over the town’s plan and make the boys ten times worse. Or at least one of them. She could only assume they were supposed to couple up. How old fashioned.

”Thanks Jaques,” Mira said to Val when her food was placed before her, giving a mocking salute with the knife in her hand before grabbing the spoon. She ate, mouth open slightly and lazily, when a loud chewing noise came from the very nervous guy. She chuckled at his manners, suddenly hearing the word love tossed around among a few of the others. She became increasingly uncomfortable until she stopped eating. ”I don’t do love. They sent the wrong girl,” she said, in a way that could have been anger or fear, before pushing from the table and storming from the room back into the hall, fists clenched.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

"..."
Hearing it once was awkward. Having it confirmed that she had heard correctly only made it worse. Watching Mira get upset and leave the room proved that she definitely wasn't the only one to have a problem with what she just heard. "...well, I'm pretty uncomfortable now. I think that I'd better just...yeah..." She pushed herself away from the table, suddenly unable to finish the salmon that she had been working on throughout the conversation.

As she stood up from the table, she tried to force a smile, though it probably mirrored how she felt anyway. "I think Val mentioned something about rooms, so I'm just going to go see about that. I'll go find him now." She walked quickly to he door, not wanting to look back at the people still at the table. What in the world was this supposed to be? It...no, this was just too weird. She needed to be alone.

Lilly looked over towards the man speaking to her. Was it her? He was looking at her? When he asked her about gardens, she smiled a little more. "I actually love gardens, my sister and I would have our own garden and tend to it." She said with a soft smile as she spoke of her sister. "We grew tomatoes, watermelons, carrots, you name it. We even planted an apple tree one time." She said before realizing she was rambling. She bit her lip to quite herself before she made herself look like an even bigger idiot.

Alex stood up and addressed Lilly, "Would you like to see my garden? It is quite spectacular." He looked around and two of the girls got up and left. Before getting a reply from Lilly, he held out his hand to Ali, "You can come too. Maybe you will find something you would like to draw."

[Song Book]

" i would but its rude not to finish free food, thank you for the offer though." Ali said it kindly but then went back to watch the other girls leave. At least she knew manners, as uncomfortable this was she had been in more uncomfortable situations. A lot more. Brushing her hair through her fingers she started to eat again trying to be happy. Some one had said something nice to her and wasn't joking. Of corse he wasn't joking he didn't know her. He didn't know her sisters, the ones who started the rumors and lies and locked me in my room while they went out. Keeping a half smile on her face she contained eating.

"Complements to the chief." Xavier says throwing his napkin over his cleaned plate. He stands and looks at everyone at the table. " I scared off are guest and they haven't even seen are beasty side yet , well besides Griffin's. I'm gonna go to the library call me if I needed." Xavier leaves the table and walks to the houses library whistling as he carried the book he was reading in the dinning room.

[LokiLeo789]

Lee was having a hard time keeping a straight face in front of everyone, but with Griffen getting all chaffed with all the people in the room, the lonly little drawing girl acting the is was the end of the world. "HAHAHA, oh my god, you guys are so depressing its funny, and your supposed to be OUR saviors. If you guys can't do love, then good luck getting out of this alive. " he said still laughing aloud.

[Heaven]

Lilly had ignored everyone else conversing in the room, her eyes looked about to the man asking her about gardens. Nodding at his offer, Lilly stood up. She had ate half the soup and got her fill. She wasn't really use to eating a lot. "Sure.." She said, her voice growing soft again as she walked towards him. "Lead the way." She said, her hand still clutched around the small locked around her neck.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

What the heck was that supposed to be? Is this even real? Vivi made a face at the memory of what had just happened. Had they really just been set up like that? Were they really supposed to just go with that?

...but what else was there to do? If that had really been the only way to stop them from becoming a hazard, then they really couldn't help that. At least they had been honest. Maybe. With her limited scope of the situation, anything could probably be true at this point. She didn't know what to think. Maybe it had been a little rude of her to just leave the room. "But, anyone else would have done the same, right? No matter how you look at it, being forced into a weird matchmaking plan like this would make anyone upset, right? It's not like I was the only one, either! I have a right to be and act at least a little weirded out!"

Whether the argument was sound or not, it made her feel a little better about herself. "And besides, couldn't they have been a little more tactful? That's not just something you outright say like that...is it? Or maybe it's worse to not be direct..." She sighed, really unsure by now. "Either way, it's too late to go back. Where am I, anyway?"

During her rant to herself, as she was now just discovering, Vivi had been wandering off in a random direction and gotten completely lost. Now what? Should she just try a door and hope that it would lead somewhere useful? Hmm...

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin finished his meal. People leaving was helping but he was still too close to turning. He thought about heading to his studio but he knew he was too close to turning. He would do more harm than good. So instead he stood and hurried outside. Maybe a walk would help him. He needed more wood for his carving anyway.

[Whirlwind]

Now out in the hallway, Mira jogged up to the front door and pulled on it. She couldn't get it open, though she wasn't sure if it was because they were so heavy or because they were locked in. After only one try though she paused. She still had all her crap in some random room here. Sighing and rolling her eyes she turned from the door and dragged herself up some stairs. Once at the top she saw a few, well, what she would assume were servants, and asked where the girls bags had been taken. A few shook their heads, as if they had no idea, but one motioned for her to follow and then pointed to a door. "Thanks," Mira mumbled, opening the doro and walking inside, finding someone else's bag on the bed. "Uuuugh," she groaned, walking out and now opening random doors til she found her own.

Alex stepped out into the hallway and faced the back of the mansion. He held out his arm so she could place her hand there and he could guide her. "The garden in behind the mansion. You will love it for sure. I have all kinds of things growing out there."

[Heaven]

Lilly was a little startled when he held his arm out for her to take. Did we want her to take his arm? She decided to take the risk and placed her hand on it, he didn't protest, so that must have been what he wanted. She nodded when he told he she'd love the garden. "Let's go see then, shall we?" She asked, letting him guide the way. He really was handsome, he had nice features and a nice smile. She realized she was staring before she quickly looked away, staring straight ahead and hoping he hadn't noticed.

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin struggled with his beast as he walked. He didnt want to lose control the first day the girls were here. He was stronger than that. Social situations were stressful for him but now that he was out of that situation he should be able to regain control. As he walked through the woods he looked for wood that spoke to him.
