"She was...amazing." he rinsed the soap from his body before continuing, "oh, but she loved someone else...even had a kid." he smiled though. Fang was her grandchild after all. "and now I love her grandchild like she would, were she still alive."
"Well, yeah, he said he was hungry when he went in." Fang sighed, and leaned on the wall, "Okay, okay."

Kujaku nodded, understanding what Meiyu was saying. He had been wondering what his connection with the little witch was. It was strange how he could be so pleasant and she wasn't. It must not have rubbed off on her well enough.
"It's good you had someone," he said with a smile, hearing Tori's breathing change. He perked up. He would be waking soon.
Tori had been dreaming. Dreaming of...a child. He didn't know who's child it was, but it was a child.
"Hey, guess what?" the child said, smiling. It was a little girl, with small light purple wings and hair to match, "Mama said that we're having mashed potatos tonight!"
"Really now?" he asked, putting a hand on the girls head and ruffling her hair. He seemed very close to this little girl. "Go tell her that I'll be on time then."
"But she's behind you! Just tell her yourself!" the little girl then ran behind him. He turned, seeing the woman who the child had run to. She was tall, with long violet hair and purple eyes. She looked like...
"Fang?" he asked. The woman smiled, and was about to say something, when he started waking up. Darn it! He wanted to hear what she was going to say.
Sebastion smiled. "Good," he said, leaning against the wall.
((I couldn't help picturing Fang and Tori's kid. She would be so CUTE!!!!!))

((lol, ikr))
Meiyu nodded, "Yes, there was always someone. First there was Guaia and Lucero,Sebastian, and then my little Angel's parents, and now it's down to just Sebastian and Angel." he shook his head, "How the numbers shrink over the years." but he was still smiling. He looked to Tori, ready to help him wake, "It takes time to realise how lucky you are." He brushed back Tori's hair, "It's time to wake, child."
Fang bit her knuckle nervously.

Tori's eyes opened slowly as he took in his surroundings. He was in a bath, and someone was next to him. Meiyu, from the sound of their voice. Someone else was there too, but they hadn't spoken yet, so he didn't know who.
Looking over at Meiyu, he smiled a sleepy smile.
"Morning," he said happily, "How long was I out?"
Kujaku didn't want to go, but he knew Tori would freak out if he found they had bathed together. Quickly rinsing his hair and seeing Tori's sleepy face, he smiled and got out of the bath, getting dressed.

"Too long, Torisen." Meiyu breathed out in relief. "Has we not come in, you could have drowned. Please be more careful." His voice was warm and caring, though.
Fang started pacing again, "Sebby, can't you just go in and check on him for me?...Please." She hugged him, looking up at him with her most innocent face.

Sebastion rolled his eyes and smiled. If she insisited, then he might as well.
"Ok, I..." he trailed off, seeing Kujaku come out of the baths. He looked clean and content, something very rare.
"Kujaku." he nodded at the man, noticing that his nails and hand were clean and healed.
Tori laughed nervously, standing up and grabbing a towel from near him.
"Sorry! It was just all warm and stuff. I couldn't help it," he said with a laugh, getting out and looking back at Meiyu.
"Aren't you getting out?" he asked with a smile.

Meiyu nodded, "Yep." he stood, grabbing a towel and got up and out of the bath, drying swiftly, before putting his clothes on once more. He patted the boy's head, "better hurry, boy, Fang's been out there waiting for a bit."
Fand stiffened at seeing Kujaku, and instant anger grew inside her but she tried not to show it. He had HELPED Tori, right? She supposed this was the part where she was nice....but she didn't want to be. She stepped back, letting go of Sebastian as she straightened out, "Is it true? Did you heal him?"

Kujaku nodded, wanting to smile at the girl's face. What, was it unfathomable that he could want to help someone? He didn't see it as a big deal. But of course, he had helped his love. It wasn't big for him because it came naturally to him.
"I did," he said calmly, flipping his head down and drying off his waist-length hair, "There will not be an infection in his body for a long time. My blood has healing properties."
Of course, there was a perk. One that gave Kujaku a happy feeling. Since he had drunk Tori's blood when he ripped his lip open, and since he had given Tori blood to heal him, they now shared a private link. He would know how Tori was feeling when he wanted, even what he was thinking.
Of course, he had had those thoughts in his head when he had done those things. But his outward wants were the more dominate. He was a schemer after all, and it was what he did best.
Tori heard those words and started rushing, accidentally buttoning his wing flaps wrong. He rushed out, smiling and looking much like the little disheavled bird he was.
"Sorry for making you worry," he said with a smile.

Fang avoided looking him in the eye when she said, "Thank you." No sooner had the words left her mouth, did Tori come bumbling out and this time she smiled widely. Purely actually happy he was safe. "You better be! You probably just gave me, like, 5 gray hairs." she warned, but laughed, easily resting her hands on her hips.
Meiyu followed him out, laughing in that low deep sounding bark, "Is everyone ready to go?"
"Um...Tori, are you still hungry?" Fang asked, suddenly getting a good idea.

Kujaku saw Tori's buttons and laughed. Well, if he had to play nice on this trip, he would play nice. No groping. But that didn't mean that he didn't get to touch Tori.
"Your buttons, little brother," he said with a smile, kneeling down and fixing them. He was so clumsy and carefree it made him smile. Some people never change.
Sebastion stopped to watch Kujaku. If he pulled any moves, he would be on him like stink on a skunk.
After the dream he had had, nothing could bring him down. He was even able to not hate Kujaku too much right now.
"Thank you Jaku," he said, using his old nickname for him. Turning to Fang, he said, "Yeah! Let's have a snack! Bathing makes me hungry."

Fang ignored how close to him Kujaku got and leant over whispering in his ear, "Want to see if we can get some mashed potatoes for the road?" She was sure he would love that idea. Plus, she liked potatoes too, so it was all good.

Tori started bouncing when she said that, literally screaming with joy.
"Yeah!!!!!" he yelled, ripping open the door and running out. He knew the others would follow.
Kujaku laughed, running after.
"Wait for me Tori!" he yelled, dodging a maid.
Sebastion watched them take off and sighed.
"More running? What are young ones made out of these days, sugar?" he asked with a sigh, looking over at his friend.
"I guess we should head out to the carriages and have everything prepared," he said with a smile.

Fang laughed, running after him, and easily taking the form of a humming bird, as too follow more easily.
Meiyu cracked a smirk, "Your guess is as good as mine." That was another bad pun. "Okay, yeah, let's go." he sighed, and chuckled to himself, headed out to the carriages.

Running around, he finally found the kitchen. The cooks were taking a break, so he felt a little bad. But...he wanted his potatoes.
"I'm sorry to bother you," he said, bowing his head, "But would you please make us some mashed potatoes to go?"
The chef laughed, finding a sack of potatoes and peeling them. "Shouldn't take more than five minutes. We keep high boiling water around here all of the time."
Kujaku walked into the room and smiled, looking at his cook.
"For three please," he said, placing a hand on Tori's shoulder. He couldn't help but want the contact.
Sebastion shook his head and laughed.
"You and your puns. Let's go before I start remembering them,"

"Ha! You laughed!" Meiyu smiled in accomplishment, and walked with his friend, "So will it be another full day long, trip?"
Fang took her regular form next to them, "Yes, please." she added, sounding just as excited. Wait...
"Kujaku, you like mashed potatoes, too?" she asked curiously.
