It's 1825, the skies are blue, the trees are green, and everything is...normal? The setting is the neighborhood where the Dannocks and Watari's co-exist. It's a very quiet neighborhood...when everyone is asleep. But what strange things lurk in this area, that are connecting the two families together?
(Using Lolita, and Laurexa, and since Kai said she'd start, she starts!)

(Then I shall begin, playing as Kura, Emirii, Mitsukai, and the Watari... pets)
Kura was the first awake, as he was most mornings. He hopped from his bed, provided by the Dannocks that he served, and quickly cleaned himself with the water in the wash basin at the foot of his bed. He brushed his hair back with his hands and smiled. Today would be another good day, he knew it. He gated out of his room and started preparing food for his family, hoping to have it ready by the time they came downstairs. The sun was already peaking through the windows in the kitchen as Kura fried the eggs and ham, and prepared the breakfast herbal tea. Everything had to be just right. It was the very least he could do for the family who took him in. Kura didn't remember his past very well. There were many blank spots... in fact, he wasn't even sure that his name was Kura Yami... it was just a name he felt like he should use.

Lolita lightly skipped down the stairs, in her usual white nightgown. She walked into the kitchen, staring at Kura. "Good morning." She said, sniffing the air. "Artemis will be pleased with the ham." She looked around, her hair messy as it always was in the morning. "Is everyone else asleep?" She asked. Lolita knew most of the vampires in the house would be asleep, but there were usually a good few that walked around in the daylight.

Kura smiled. "Well, Young Mistress, you're the first one I've seen so far, so I assume so." he said, turning his back on the food for a moment, gathering dishware to serve the family. He went ahead and made up plates for everyone, setting them in their places at the table, even if there was no one there to eat them yet. He then scraped the remainder into a bowl on the floor that was for the family cat. He then brought the tea out on a tray, looking to Lolita. "Tea?" he asked politely.

"Yes, thank you." Lolita said, nodding. She picked up a cup of tea, and began sipping it. She walked over to her place at the table, and sat down. "Kura, I was thinking of going over to Emirii's today, would you like to come with?"
"Your mother says she'll be down shortly." Artemis said, walking into the kitchen. He stretched as he walked toward his food bowl. "She wants you to get dressed after breakfeast." He nodded his head toward Lolita.

Kura smiled. "Good morning, Master Artemis." he said politely, turning back to Lolita. "I'd love to visit with you today." He said, placing the tea set down. "But we will have to check with your mother first."

"She always says yes." Lolita said, beginning to eat. "Why bother asking if I know the answer?" Lolita thought for a moment and then shrugged.
Artmeis yawned, and nodded at Kura.
"Good Morning Darlings." Laurexa said, stepping into the kitchen dramaticly. She wore a black and purple custom made suit, black heels, and black gloves. Her shoulder length blonde hair, was slicked down. She was already fully dressed. She looked over at Lolita. "Now Lolipop what have I told you about coming down in your nightgowns, it's not proper." She scolded. Laurexa looked over at Kura. "Good morning, I trust you'll be watching over my little angel again today." She said, smiling.

Kura smiled warmly. "Of course, Mistress Dannocks!" he said, laughing gently. "I wouldn't let her out of my sight for a moment." He motioned towards the table with his right arm. "There's breakfast set out for everyone, whenever they're ready, and if they need me to make them something fresh before I take the young mistress over to the Watari family's home, I'd be more than happy to. He gave a light bow and scratched behind Artemis's ear before heading towards his room to change clothes before taking Lolita out. He closed his door tightly and smirked. "She's going to take you over to their house again, Kura-kun..." he muttered quietly, his laugh hissing through his teeth quietly, his red eyes glowing brightly. "Perhaps... you could get your body to stop resisting me by then. There's still something important I must do." Kura grabbed his head, his smile vanishing. "No... You keep saying to do these things, but... I like Miss Emirii... and I like Master Mitsukai too! We're all good friends... I couldn't-" "SHUT UP!" he hissed, tossing his head to one side. "Don't call them so formally, those two don't deserve it..."

Laurexa sat down next to her daughter to eat. "You've got him wrapped around your little finger." She said, glancing down at her daughter. "I don't know what you're talking about." Lolita said, shrugging. "I just want to go see Emirii while you go play cards with your friends." Laurexa patted Lolita's head. "Two things while you're out, first thing is be polite, and second is don't and I repeat don't wear yourself out, last thing you need to do is feed infront of humans." Laurexa said sternly. "Even if they already know you're a vampire." Lolita rolled her eyes. "Yes Ma'am." She sighed. She finished eating and then got up from the table. "See you later Okaa-san." She said, walking out of the kitchen. Artmeis looked up from his food and followed after Lolita. Lolita walked up the stairs and into her room, closing the door after Artemis was inside. "Happy day Artemis we get to visit Emirii again, maybe you, Nyuu, and Tsuki will have fun playing together." She said, undressing. "Lolita I'm not a pet." Artemis said, rolling his eyes. "You're like a pet though." Lolita informed him. "I still think you should limit the time you spend over there, those people feel weird." He said, jumping ontop of her dresser. "Oh Artemis, you and your feelings." Lolita said, pulling a dress over her head. She smoothed the wrinkles out of her purple knee length dress. "I'm just worried is all." Artemis said. Lolita brushed her hair and pulled it back into a low ponytail. "I wonder if Mitsukai-Kun will play with us too." She said, changing the subject, as she put her purple boots on. "Could you not be infatuated with that kid?" Artemis asked. "Not my fault he is kinda cute." Lolita said, lightly wrapping a blue ribbon around Artemis' neck. "Again with the ribbons..." Artemis muttered, as Lolita tied the ends of the ribbon into a bow. "Be happy it isn't on your tail." Lolita snapped. "Don't forget your parasol, you'll burn otherwise." Artemis said, jumping off the dresser. Lolita grabbed her purple parasol off of a hook, and walked out of her room, slipping purple gloves on her hands as she walked down the stairs. "It's a purple kind of day." She sang. "You're only wearing it because it's what your mother is wearing today." Artemis mumrered. She waited by the front door for Kura, humming lightly.

Kura held his head for a moment, as the extra voice faded somewhere into his subconscious before growing silent. He looked up, removing his hands from his ears and looked around. Sun light was shining in from his one window, and cast shadows across his face. The feeling in his body returned to normal as his muscles relaxed. The other him had gone back to sleep, and Kura was already beginning to feel safer. He hated the way the other him talked... He hated the thoughts that he had when the other him was awake. He shook his head, trying to brush it off, and quickly got dressed into clothes that were more suitable for out door wear. Once ready he booked from his room and into the den, bowing to Lolita. "Shall we along, Young Mistress?" he asked kindly, keeping his hands from shaking.

(Risu I wouldn't like the twins in this, because they'd disrupt the future too much, and this is the way back past. But you have to be more literate, no three word or one sentence posts, if you are going to do that then don't even bother. So be more literate and no twins. )
"Yes we shall." Lolita said, opening the front door, and stepping outside. She opened her parasol quickly, to sheild her face from the sun. "To Emirii's!" (I almost typed Kari >.<)
Artemis followed her trying to think of a way to get the ribbon off his neck.

Kura smiled, offering a hand to hold Lolita's umbrella up for her.His hair brushed his face against the gentle wind that blew around them. He had dressed himself in a nice white button up shirt with a white ascot and clack jacket.

"I want to do it." Lolita said, pouting. " I don't want to look spoiled." Lolita didn't realise that walking around with a butler would make her look spoiled to begin with. "I want to look um...normal?"
"You are wearing an expensive looking frilly dress, you look far beyond Normal." Artemis said, running up and leaping onto Kura's shoulder.

Kura giggled quietly. "That's not necessarily true... Most of the families in this neighborhood are very wealthy. I don't think the young mistress looks out of place at all." he said. He patted Artemis's head and straightened his ribbon. "Besides, what would Mistress Dannocks say if we didn't try to show off a little bit in front of the neighbors."

Lolita thought for a moment. "I guess you're right." She said, looking up at Kura. "But you'd look silly holding a purple parasol, wouldn't you?"
Artemis winced when the ribbon was straightened, he didn't like the ribbon already, why did it have to be perfect.

Kura giggled again, happily taking the parasol. "It doesn't bother me one little bit!" he said, opening it up and holding it over Lolita, so that the angle provided better coverage from the sun. "So long as you don't burn up, I couldn't care less how I look."

Lolita nodded. "That's very nice of you to say." She said, smiling up at him. "I wonder what we're going to do at Emirii's she always has a plan."
Artemis sighed. "I'm just hoping it doesn't involve us animals." He wasn't one to enjoy games that Lolita played with Emirii and Mitsukai.

Emirii sat on her front porch swing, dressed in her usual pastel pink dress, edged with frilly lace and ribbons. Her dull blue eyes scanned the trees along the cobblestone road, watching the leaves as they were ripped from their branches in the autumn breeze. In her lap sat a small black, grey, and white weasel, that she stroked tenderly with a white gloved hand. The weasel's eyes were as glued to the road as his mistress's. Once he spotted Lolita and her butler his head popped up and he quickly scampered into Emirii's dress to hide.
Kura smiled. "You're friend is already waiting for you, young Mistress." he pointed out.

"Emirii!" Lolita sang loudly. She ran out from under the parasol, and into the sunlight. When she was half way to Emirii, she stopped and ran back under the parasol, rubbing her face. "Emirii, your trees don't provide enough shade."
"And the weasle has gone to hide." Artemis murmered.

Emirii smiled brightly. "That's because it's fall, silly!" she said, looking at the leaves that had started to fall. It was still early, and most of the trees hadn't even started to change colors, but the trees in the Watari's yard seemed to be a month ahead of the others. The weasel poked his head out of the collar of Emirii's dress, looking to Artemis curiously. Emirii giggled. "It's good to see all of you. You're looking very nice today, Kura-kun. And Artemis, as handsome as ever." she said, walking over and patting Artemis's head. Kura blushed. "Thank you, ma'am." he said, his eyes darting off into the distance. There was a light pounding in his head as Emirii walked over to Lolita. "Hi there, Lolly! What shall we do today?" she sang happily.

"I don't know, something that has to do with the shade hopefully." Lolita answered. "What do you want to do?"
Artemis stared at the weasel. "I'd be even more handsome without the bow..." He muttered, but nodding kindly at Emirii.

The weasel squeaked, ducking back into Emirii's dress, then reappearing out of her sleeve, winding up her arm towards her shoulder like a snake. She giggled. "Tsumi's happy to see you, Artemis." she said, patting the weasel's head. She looked around. "Well, we could go inside to play today. The maids cleaned yesterday, so there's lots of room. We could play hide and seek, or something fun like that."

"I say you, me and Mitsukai do the hiding, while Kura and Artemis do the seeking." Lolita said, nodding.
"Why do I have to seek if the weasel doesn't?" Artemis asked. Not liking the idea of having to look for kids all day.
"Because silly you're a cat and he's a weasel, he can hide alot better then you." Lolita answered. "So what do you say Emirii?"

Post by Kai on Jul 27, 2009 1:20:20 GMT -5
Emirii laughed. "If you want Mitsukai to play, you've got quite the task on your hands. He's being a grump, as usual. But it would be fun to hide! Kura, you don't mind seeking, do you?" Kura bowed. "Of course not, young mistress Watari." he said

"Well where is the grumpy pants?" Lolita asked, running onto the porch, avoiding the sunlight as best she could. "I'll get him to play, I'm older and pretty, and if he doesn't play hide and seek we can always play dress up with him...and make him look like a...girl." Lolita could be called a boy's worst nightmare just for the ideas she came up with when a boy didn't want to play with her.

Emirii giggled. "He's in the library, like he usually is." she said, opening the door for everyone. "You can all come in." she said, trotting in herself. Once her feet touched the marble, Tsumi hopped onto the floor, trotted paces ahead of the group, then wheeling around to watch them enter the house. Kura bowed to Lolita. "After you, young mistress." he said warmly, retracting the umbrella.

Lolita nodded. She quickly walked inside, looking around. She walked to the library, as quick as she could. When she reached the Library she walked inside loudly. "Mitsukai." She said quietly. "Come and play with Emirii and me."
Artemis followed after Tsumi. "How has it been since we were last over...yesterday?" He asked.

A young woman with dark pink hair looked over her shoulder and scoffed. "Mitsukai-sama..." she said quietly. Mitsukai closed the book he had been reading gently and stood. "Thank you, Nouha-san." he said, turning to look at Lolita, his face expressionless. "What do you two plan on playing?" he asked. Nouha looked a little shocked. "Mitsukai-sama, you aren't actually planning on lowering yourself to the standards of-" Mitsukai held up his hand and Nouha fell silent. "I can at least hear them out..." he said.
Tsumi looked to Artemis, then to Emirii, giving him a kind of, 'not in front of the children' look. Tsumi was normally silent around humans, filling out the roll of a normal house pet, no matter how degrading it could get.

"We're going to play hide and seek, Kura and Artemis are the seekers, but I think you should play too, or we could always play dress up Mitsukai like we did last week." Lolita said, smiling. "I'm sure Emirii wouldn't mind letting you wear one of her dresses." Lolita took to ignoring Nouha. She never had anything nice to say about Lolita anyway, so after a week of knowing the maid, she just quit listening.
