[Hoshido] [Tokohotsu Shrine, Stairs] Musashi's blade was precise, his blows strong and sure, and the first of the enemies fell to his cuts. Cutting off the arm and the leg forced the skeleton to tumble to the side, where it simply fell apart, having sustained too much damage for the curse to keep it animated. But where there was one, more came, and he was suddenly faced with two more skeletons, both holding spears and poking away at him from range. They were fairly slow, no match for the reflexes and quickness of the living, but their swings were still surprisingly powerful, and each attack still held speed that was deceptively high. Then, Tamamo joined the battle. Her initial magic tagged one of the spearmen who was facing Musashi, and the onmyo spell set the skeleton and its weapon ablaze. However, the skeleton was very dead and couldn't feel pain or damage, so it continued attacking Musashi. While on fire. Tamamo's second spell did some better damage, turning a group of two swordsmen into receptacles for a lot of frozen spikes. One of them fell apar, seemingly damaged beyond repair. The other turned to face Tamamo and took a step in her direction, but then Hiko danced by and struck it twice with a wooden blade, driving one of the ice spikes deeper into its skull and felling it as well. However, the swordman was forced to move on as the skeleton he previously faced along with two other ex-spearmen followed him, interchanging attacks in a way that revealed more than just bestial intelligence. And the rest of them pressed in as well. Two spearmen and swordmen selected Celest as a target, bypassing Hiko and Musashi without care as the two were preoccupied with their own threats, while Another group went straight for Tamamo. In the meantime, Musashi was faced with the skeleton that still burned, a second spearman and a much larger skeleton wielding a massive axe that swung slowly, but tore through the stone steps with its swings like through tissue paper. And through it all, two figures remained at the top of the stairs. Both were also quite dead, but they looked more like animated corpses than desiccated ones. One wielded a Nodachi, his blade resting against the ground as he watched, while the other leaned against a massive hammer. Both were surrounded with a malevolent red aura that made them look like they were glowing crimson, and their eyes were alight with the same unholy fire, but they retained the facial features of their lives. Their bodies bore scars of battle, the man with the hammer having almost two dozen arrows still sticking out of him, while the nodachi wielder had a massive cut across his chest, one that was certainly lethal. Both were doubtlessly dead... And both stood waiting at the top of the staircase, watching the battle. |

-Hoshido- Tokohotsu Shrine Celest focused his magic, eying the two skeletons that were coming towards him. Ice collected in his hands, sending out a wave of very cold air, intending on freezing the skeletons were they stood, then switched for a second spell. A wave of sound would erupt from Celest, attempting to shatter the hopefully frozen skeletons! -Galdwin- Streets “That's where I heard those names before!” Elysia said, as Taichi introduced himself as the Prince, and Nanami as the Princess, of Aurelia, then frowned. She didn't hold it against them for keeping that quiet... but Elysia wasn't super fond of royalty. “Oh cooooool!” Kyran said, giving Taichi a curtsy in return. “I'd love to see the airship!” -Nohr- Road Zadkiel held his ground. He summoned forth strength, praying as he called upon the holy abilities bestowed upon him, his shield glowing to take the wild swing, grunting with effort as he was pushed back, feeling the weight and power behind the blow. Doing that a second time would be extremely risky. “Begone, foul beast!” Zadkiel declared, his fire beginning to take a white color, burning hotter as he slashed at the Faceless repeatedly! Meanwhile Aiden saw the fist coming at her, throwing her hands up as fire burst from them. It sent her backwards, propelling her out of the way of the fist, though the girl tumbled on the ground. “Oof...” Aiden said, shaking her head. She wasn't sure how much she could do against these Faceless... she wasn't really combat trained, but she would do everything she could! -Aurelia: Many Years Ago- “...No, don't kill your father,” Gallic said suddenly, shaking his head. “I will deal with the guards, and return. But if you kill your father... then what? You assume the throne? Then everyone will simply see everything repeating... the child killing the parent for power. If we want to change Aurelia for the better... it can't be you.” He moved forward towards Rin, placing his hands on her shoulders. “I will return, and I will kill the King. You have to stay as the good daughter, the kind royal, for the people. If you kill him then it'll just cement in everyone's mind that things will be the same, no matter how different you are...” |

Galdwin - Streets Walking through the streets with his hands full of some food he had bought nearby, was a young man with reddish orange hair, looking at everyone passing by and/or standing around, in search of the people he arrived to this country with. He was followed closely behind by a young woman with light brown hair that was tied back into two 'tails', also carrying her own share of food. Soon enough, however, the young man found who he was looking for, and started towards them. They appeared to be talking with some others, so the young man carefully approached, not wanting to interrupt anything... “It's because I am Taichi Nomura, prince of Aurelia – and this is my sister, the Princess Nanami!” The young man completely froze, though the young woman who had been walking with him continued slightly more towards Elysia, Kyran, and the royals. "Finally found you guys," the girl said to Kyran and Elysia, before looking towards Taichi and Nanami and then bowing at them, since they (well... at least Taichi) had bowed themselves. "I-I-I'm sorry I-I didn't get anything f-for you both," the girl directed towards Taichi and Nanami with a bow, before turning towards Elysia and Kyran, " I didn't know you both were friends with royalty..." Meanwhile the young man was still completely frozen. //...well if she's going to find someone better for herself, a prince is definitely a good step above someone who just helps run a trinkets shop...// was the thought that kept running through his brain. |

-Galdwin- Streets “We're not friends,” Elysia said flatly, “We just met them a couple minutes ago.” She paused as she saw Dion, her annoyed face instantly changing into a smile. “Dion! I was worried you might not find us, Kyran here got us held up,” Elysia said, her voice much calmer now as she moved towards him. “Ohhhhh, you got some food? I'm starving!” Kyran grinned at her sister, then nodded towards Taichi and Nanami. “Taichi, Nanami, this is Dion and Serafina. Dion, Serafina, this is Taichi and Nanami! Taichi's gonna show me his airship!” Kyran said. “Better be all he shows you...” Elysia grumbled. Edited by AGodofIrony, Jul 29 2017, 08:29 PM.

[Hoshido] [Tokohotsu Shrine] “Oh come on!” Musashi groaned as the burning skeleton swung at him with a burning spear! It smashed into the shoulder guard of his armor and he was grateful that he had remembered to don it before the battle. He jumped back and his hand moved quickly, and suddenly in the kashira of his blade there was a red ring embedded with it, a large red jewel shining. He touched the sword to his shoulder and the flames moved from his armor, to the blade – and suddenly his sword was engulfed in a bright yellow flame, burning around the blade. He stabbed forward, hitting the skeleton and the flames leaked from the skeleton's body onto his sword – the blade now glowing red hot. “Sorry, but I think I'll be taking these!” Musashi called out – but he saw that he had other skeletons to contend with. The spearman was an issue because of its reach, but the real threat was the one wielding the axe. Musashi paused, and then jumped forward, dove and rolled past a massive swung of the axe, jumped back to his feet and spun around behind the skeleton, bringing his burning blade down to try to crack its spine! Tamamo, meanwhile, was jumping and weaving, dodging several blows from the skeletal warriors. She threw out other ofuda scrolls, one hit the ground and a barrage of rocks exploded up from it, raining down at a group of skeletons. Another landed between a pair of skeletons and massive bolts of lightning shot out at them both! [Galdwin] [Streets] When these two newcomers appeared, Nanami looked even less happy than before. She knew exactly where all of this was going – Taichi was about to invite a bunch of strangers to the airship, ignoring everything that their mother had expected of them. Taichi grinned. “Hello! You must be friends of Kyran and Elysia! It's nice to meet you.” [Aurelia: Many Years Ago] Rin frowned, feeling the hand on her shoulder. She sighed, slowly turning back to Gallic. This was bad. Killing her father had not been her goal – at least not this way, but she saw little choice. “... Fine, but you realize the moment you return, he will sic all of his soldiers against you? You will be killing far more... and if we do it this way, I cannot help you.” Rin warned him. |

-Aurelia: Many Years Ago- At this, Gallic smiled. “He can try. I haven't been idle these many years... I've gotten a number of the soldiers and even some of their captains on my side. Spread the word to Jint, Farloon, and Jacob... And to Claire, she knows some of the nobles who would back us,” Gallic said, “They can get word around to wait for my return. It won't be everyone... but enough to cause some confusion, to keep the common soldiers from wanting to act. “I know how to get in and out of the city without being seen... I'll get in and find one of our allies, to help get me close to the King... then... we can be together, and we can save Aurelia.” |

[Hoshido] [Tokohotsu Shrine] Celest's wave of magic was surprisingly effective. The quartet that selected the young mage as a target ended up directly in the way of the freezing spell, and only one of them managed to make it out unfrozen, by the virtue of being behind one of the other three when the spell struck. Then, the sound wave from Celest shattered the frozen trio... And forced the last one to simply fall apart. But this one, unlike the others, actually started to recollect itself and was trying to get back up. And as he was trying to do so, a massive hulking figure rushed over the fallen, recollecting skeleton, revealing another one of those enormous axe-wielding skeletal figures that was coming in for Celest with a massive overhead swing of the axe that promised to cleave the mage in two pieces if he didn't do anything about it... Tamamo's own encounters were much more brief, since the woman was very effective at fleeting in between the skeletal forms and setting off spell after spell. She downed another four, two falling for her blast of stones and another two when they were struck by bolts of lightning from the heavens... And as her lightning bolts took care of the two, she found herself face-to-face with another skeleton. Which was kneeling. And pointing something at her. Something with a very wide barrel. There was a spark of flint and steel, just a fraction of a second of hissing... And the skeleton was revealed to have been holding a hand-cannon, firing a small cannonball at the quick, spellcasting woman from almost point-blank range. At that moment, Musashi rolled behind the massive skeleton, bringing down a forceful, burning blade upon its back. The blade, heated to intensity that burned even from inches away slid through armor and bone like a hot knife through butter, shearing the enormous skeletal warrior's back right through and felling him in one strike. But as the form was falling, the burning spearman tried to take advantage and went to try and impale Musashi through the falling pieces of skeletal form... Only to flag entirely at the last moment as the arcane flame that burned it finally cleaned away the impurity that held it together, and it simply fell apart into burning bone and seared steel mid-strike. This left only one spearman to contend with, which tried to strike Musashi with a wide sweeping spear swing... Hiko himself was finding his encounters surprisingly challenging. The two with the spears that were hounding him were a bit quicker and lighter on their feet, and his strikes were doing very little against their bones and armor. Finally, they managed to lead Hiko a little further up the stairs, and both of the spears went in from opposite sides with wide strikes, which Hiko jumped over with a forward roll... That took him right to the feet of the last of the giant skeletal axe-men, which came down with a massive axe strike just as Hiko landed. Just as the swordsman's feet touched the ground, he let off a burst of ki into his legs and PUSHED, dashing to the side in a blur of motion, just barely avoiding the axe swing as well. Another step took him behind the massive skeletal figure and he swung the wooden blade down, as if sheathing it, gripping the wooden blade in two hands, one hand on the handle and one a little further up where the blade of a sword would normally begin. A tiny twist of of the wrist let out a soft clicking sound, and a brief flash of something metallic was the only visible part, which was followed by the sound of metal sliding against wood as Hiko seemed to remain in the exact same position that he was in before. The skeletal figure of the gigantic axe-wielder paused for a moment, and then fell to the side in two large pieces, revealing Hiko once more standing with the wooden blade gripped in both hands. Without further ado, he jumped in between the two spear-wielders and proceeded to duck and weave in between their strikes once more, striking here and there with the wooden training blade until finally he landed a finishing stroke and broke one of their skulls... But as Musashi was handling his opponents, the two red-glowing figures that stood at the top of the stairs began to move, loping their way down the steps of the shrine, weapons ready...

Nohr As the ground shook around him, Didymus stood, having moved slightly in anticipation of countering the blow from the beast. He was quiet, except for the occasional sound of exertion, his prayer silent as his sword glowed with white-golden light, and he thrust it forward, aiming for the Faceless' neck! He had to deal with this one quickly, then move on to the one attacking Garnet... [Castle] Cecil, grateful that they had been granted some spare time, simply nodded at Cid's statement, and added "Right with you!", running fast as he could back the way they had entered! Galdwin Richard simply leaned back a little in his chair, reclining a bit. "It may not, but I would submit that it has a number of traits that make it...superbly qualified." he said. Percival simply spoke again. "Regardless, if you are at all displeased by the presence of my brothers for any reason, they will leave your lands at your decree." he said. Richard simply nodded, as both men returned their gazes to their dinners and continued to eat. |

[Aurelia: Many Years Ago] “Don't underestimate him, Don.” Rin warned him, as she turned to him and watched him carefully. She knew he had planned things out, and he was a capable warrior... but the best laid plans meant little with a curve-ball like this. She turned from him and sighed, stepping towards the door. “I'll see you upon your return. Don't lose.” She paused at the door. There was something else on her mind – something Gallic deserved to know, but something that risked to distract him now in this critical moment. She frowned. “... I'm afraid this is my fault, Don. I cast a very specific spell to make sure of something I've suspected for a few days now, and one of my attendants must have noticed it and told my father.” Slowly, she glanced at Gallic. “I'm pregnant. Don't die.” And with that, she simply walked out the door – and then vanished. [Hoshido] [Tokohotsu Shrine] Tamamo gasped as the cannon went of – and she brought up her hands to try to shield it, but wasn't quite fast enough. Her barrier came up but did not fully solidify, the cannon ball slammed against it and shattered through, hitting Tamamo and knocking her onto her back. Thankfully, the barrier had slowed the ball enough that it didn't do more serious damage – buts he was in pain, on her back and groaning. She pushed the ball away from her, grabbed an ofuda from her robe and threw it into the air – there was a blinding flash, as a small vortex of swirling wind shot down at the skeleton with the hand-cannon; small tornado now trying to rip it apart! Tamamo, meanwhile, crawled back and tried to climb back to her feet. Musashi was faring better. The swinging spear struck his back but the blade bounced away from his lamellar. The light-weight plating was harder than it looked – perhaps harder than it should have been, and Musashi quickly jumped away from the spear, frowning. Spears were a challenge. They had a vastly superior range and for all of his speed, Musashi knew that it was always a danger to get close. His armor could protect him to some degree, but there were plenty of spots without the protective covering and if that spear found its way to flesh it would make cleansing this shrine much harder. An idea struck Musashi, and he smirked. He ran forward and as the spearman slashed again he jumped – a burst of green and a rush of air propelled him and he landed on the spear, ran along its length and slashed with his burning blade right at the skeleton's head! [Nohr] [Road] Didymus' blade found its mark, and as the light exploded forth from his sword the Faceless let out another of those guttural, terrible roars! The light tore its way through the other side of the monster's neck and its helmeted head fell off, landing on the ground to Didymus' right. The monster's body fell on his left – and suddenly both head and body dissolved away into plumes of black smoke! Zadkiel's flames burned at a second of the faceless, consuming its leathery body and burning it away – it roared in horrible pain as it too erupted into a plume of smoke, and not even a scrap of the beast was left whenthe flames cleared. The Faceless attacking Garnet was roaring out still, and her barrier was quickly breaking. She gasped, falling onto the ground and crawling backwards. Fear overtook her – and as she looked around, she saw that Aiden was in similar danger – and Didymus and the man whose name she did not were also being attacked, although as expected of warriors they were faring much better. She frowned – she knew she had no choice. She clasped her hands together and began to speak something, her body began to glow and then she screamed out: “Diamond Light!” In a blinding flash of light, a small green fox-like creature appeared floating in the air above them. There was a large, red ruby embedded into its forehead. It let out a loud mew – and the ruby on its head suddenly became a diamond, a beam of bright golden light shooting up into the air above it! Shimmering lights appeared around Garnet, Aiden, Didymus and Zadkiel – and then suddenly they vanished! Or so it appeared! They had actually become invisible! “Quickly! We must flee while we can!” Garnet shouted out to the others. “Forgive me, I will explain once we are safe!” |

[Hospital] “I know a place we can stay! You and Liam should come with me and Graham.” Rue instantly smiled, but as usual was polite, even if it was with her older sister. "Are you sure? I mean I wouldn't want to impose on you guys-" The girl then paused, grabbing her sister's sleeve and pulling her in so she could whisper without Graham hearing (even though he was only a foot or two away). "W-Wait! You and Graham have been traveling together AND staying in the same place?! Have you two been sharing a room- Oh man dad is going to absolutely flip if you have!" she whispered urgently, but also quite interested in her sister's answer. When Caitlin left home Rue could only image the adventures her sister would have on her own- this was even better than she imaged! [Train] “We're among family and friends... you can come out more often if you'd like, you know...” "Family....And friends...." Samara repeated evenly, staring at both Joyce and Sage. Her eyes stopped on Sage for a moment, looking as if she could see something that no one else could. "He's not a good person. He's not a friend" she said, turning her gaze back to Blake. She made this announcement as if she was discussing the weather, not that she was deciding someone's morality. "Hey! Sage is my best friend!" Joyce exclaimed, raising her voice at Blake's shadow....Friend? "He's a better person than you!" Samara glared back at Joyce. "I am the same as Blake." she said before looking back to Sage. "An he is the same as his creator" Ouch. Edited by Crystal Rose, Jul 31 2017, 06:46 PM.

Galdwin: Streets "Umm... I hope you're okay with what I found to eat. It's a little different than the stuff we usually can get back home " Dion handed over the extra food he was carrying to Elysia, though he still remained a bit wary about this prince. And looking at the princess, that young woman just seemed to have a face that reminded him a bit of Elysia's, from when he first met Elysia. ...which meant he also had to be worried about her, as he wouldn't want to piss off a royal. Though it also sounded like, just from this brief exchange, that Elysia herself didn't seem to be too happy with these royals, herself... Dion himself waved hello though, when introduced. Serafina, however, remained bowing to Taichi and Nanami, as they were introduced. "I-it's a p-pleasure to have the op-opportunity to m-meet r-royalty..." She managed to get out, remaining bowed. Usually it was Dion who might miss something obvious, but Serafina was too preoccupied with being concerned about meeting someone as important as a prince and princess of a country, to realize that Taichi was acting REALLY laid back about his own 'being royalty' |

[Nohr: Hospital] Caitlin's cheeks immediately turned several shades darker and for a moment she could only stare at Rue with wide eyes – she opened her mouth to speak, but caught sight of Graham from the corner of her eye, froze, and then quickly grabbed Rue's wrist and pulled her right out of the room and into the hallway. “What kind of question is that!?” Caitlin asked in a shouted whisper, both trying to show her annoyance and keep her voice down. “Geez, don't just ask stuff like that right in front of everybody!” She crossed her arms and felt her cheeks burning. She looked away from Rue, clearing her throat. “... Not that it's any of your business, but usually we get two rooms... but I mean... rooms are expensive... you know sometimes we have to share...” She paused. “But – not like... I mean we don't share a bed or anything! We're not even... together... I mean... we did kinda do some stuff but that was... why am I even talking to you about this?” Caitlin groaned, burying her face in her hands. After a moment she took them away and glared at Rue. “Not a word to dad! I mean it!” [Galdwin: Streets] “No, no, that just won't do.” Taichi frowned, shaking his head as he watched Serafina. He stepped forward and shook his head. “Look, being royalty doesn't matter at all, okay? I'm only royalty 'cause my grandpa killed a bunch of people and declared he was special.” Taichi shrugged. “I'm no different than anybody else, and I'd much prefer if you just treat me like anyone else!” Nanami groaned loudly. Taichi had never cared about their royal status – and often seemed irritated by it. She saw it differently... she had been groomed for the throne and one would day rule Aurelia; she had to have a level of respect for what they were beyond her brother. [Ylisse: Border Village] Screams echoed out into the skies, accompanied by billowing black smoke. The tiny village on the border between Ylisse and the Great Desert was in shambles. Several buildings were on fire, people were screaming and fleeing – and some of the local knights lay dead in the streets. A group of bandits from the desert were to blame. Brigands wearing green tunics, carrying large axes and covering their faces with white scarfs. They yelled loudly as they ran through the village, looting, plundering and burning as they went. “Burn these damn Ylissians out of house and home! Make them pay!” One of the brigands shouted. “Heheh, I want to find more of their soldiers! Such easy pickins!” Another of them yelled, waving his blood-soaked axe. “I want to find some of the women...” A particularly gruesome man laughed. Suddenly with a fwoosh a long white arrow sailed through the sky and embedded itself deeply between the eyes of the bandit. He fell and died before he could even realize what had happened – and his fellow brigands gasped in surprise. Atop a nearby rooftop was a young man with long red hair that billowed in the wind along with his cerulean cape. White and black armor gleamed in the fire as he loaded another arrow onto his massive bow. “Shiiit! Get up there!” One of the Brigands yelled out and two of them went running – and as they did, a quiet young man in plain armor stepped out from between two buildings. One of the brigands raised his axe and brought it down while shouting – but the young man threw up his right arm and caught the blade between his fingers. “Unfortunately for you, cutting this arm will prove a challenge.” The young man announced – and then he crushed the axe blade between his fingers. As the astonished brigand gasped, the knight leaped forward and slammed his metal hand against the Brigand's head, smashing his face and sending him to the ground with a thud. “KILL THEM!” Another brigand screamed, and three of their numbers ran forward towards the quiet knight who carried no weapon. Then in a flash of white and gold, a very tall knight in armor like fresh snow rushed forward. His hair was short and purple, while his sword was long and rimmed in gold. With one slash he cut down all three of the brigands where they stood and their lifeless bodies collapsed to the ground. “You have endangered Ylisse, slaughtered our people and burned our homes – such actions are unforgivable, but if you lay down your arms, no more of you need die.” The purple-haired knight called out. The remaining brigands gasped, and then they turned and started to run. The purple-haired knight sighed. “Tristan – do as you must.” The red-haired knight gave a sigh, and then he let his arrows fly. None of the brigands made it back to the edge of the town. When the combat had finished, the knights slowly searched the town, looking for bandits, or survivors. They found no more of the former, but several of the latter. Nearly an hour after the battle, the fires had been extinguished and the injured were being treated, and the three knights finally had a chance to sit on a bench outside a small church. “It's a shame that none of them surrendered. The only prisoner will be the one I incapacitated.” The quiet knight in humble armor sighed. “After what they did to this village, I feel no pity for the blood shed today.” Tristan shook his head. “Perhaps next time the brigands will think twice.” “They never do.” The purple-haired knight sigh himself, looking down at the blood on his blade. “... but do not be disheartened, Bedivere, you have done will today. The new arm is working just as the wizard said.” Bedivere frowned slightly, looking down at his right arm. It appeared to be entirely covered in armor, but as he flexed his fingers, it was clear it was more than just armor. “Yes, and I am grateful to have it... but I wish it was not necessary. I was foolish before.” “There is not a knight alive who has not been foolish. You just paid a greater price than most of us.” The purple-haired knight replied, shaking his head. “Now come, we should send word back to the capitol... the King will surely want to know of our success today.” Edited by GoldenSama, Aug 1 2017, 05:44 AM.

[Nohr: Hospital] If Caitlin's words weren't telling enough, her expression when Rue brought up the idea of she and Graham was more than enough. The younger girl's face went red. “What kind of question is that!? Geez, don't just ask stuff like that right in front of everybody!” "S-Sorry! But-" “... Not that it's any of your business, but usually we get two rooms... but I mean... rooms are expensive... you know sometimes we have to share...But – not like... I mean we don't share a bed or anything! We're not even... together... I mean... we did kinda do some stuff but that was... why am I even talking to you about this?” Rue's eyes widened as she was forced to suppress a squeal of excitement. She couldn't believe what she was hearing! “Not a word to dad! I mean it!” "Luckily for you I don't want to be an only child- but it's rather romantic isn't it? Secret rendezvous you don't want mom and dad to know about with some tall dark and handsome man!" Rue said rather dreamily. While Caitlin was technically an adult, Rue was only 16, and thus wasn't even allowed in the presence of young men without her parents watching. Other than Liam she had no male friends, and the juiciest tale of torrid love she ever got to hear was from some sailor her dad was healing- though his story of wooing a princess from Hyrule did seem rather exaggerated now that she thought about it.... "Don't worry, I won't say anything" Rue reassured, pulling her sister back into the room. When she caught Graham's sight she couldn't help but to give a little giggle. "We should grab Liam!" she announced "I'm sure he'd love to stay with you both as well" |

[Nohr: Hospital] Caitlin groaned again, leaning against the wall and nibbling on her lip. She couldn't believe she'd told Rue about this. It was a lot more complicated than she had managed to stammer out in her explanation, but right now she wasn't sure she could explain. “It's not like that... I mean...” Caitlin sighed, and soon was dragged back into the room, now much quieter and still a ball of blush. Graham spotted the way Rue giggled and the look on Cait's face and he could only sigh and guess at why the sisters had gone to the hallway. “Then let's go find him.” Graham shrugged. He wasn't about to ask... |

[Nohr: Hospital] Rue wanted to ask more questions, especially why Caitlin and Graham weren't dating if all of this was going on, but she decided to layoff for the moment lest her older sister die of embarasment. Instead she rushed past the two into the waiting room spotting Liam. Caitlin told her not to tell dad, but Liam....... Later. "Liam! Caitlin and Graham said we could stay with them!" She exclaimed, before her own cheeks went pink. "If you aren't heading out of town already." |
