Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kyo just looked at Drive a bit confused. "You can't be serious. I could drink both of them no problem normally that is....but on my head." Kyo looked around the room for a moment before grabbing the two jugs of wine. He slowly walked over to the wall with a smirk on his face. He flipped up onto his hands and slowly rested himself down on his head. He took a second to make sure he was balanced before removing his hands from the floor.
Before reaching for a jug his body began to grow outward. After that was finished Kyo placed a hand on the first jug and began to tip it towards his mouth. He quickly began to chug the first jug of wine. After a few minutes the first jug was finished and Kyo's face was a bit flushed.
Kyo placed his hands on the ground again to steady himself again. After a moment of readjusting his weight he grabbed the second jug. He lifted it to his mouth and smiled before chugging it. As soon as it was finished he set the jug back down on the ground and placed his hands on the ground.
He pushed off of the ground with his hands and landed back on his feet looking right at Drive. "Satisfied? I drank both of them while on my head." His face was returning to it's normal hue and he still had his balance. "So is that all or is there supposed to be another part to this now?"

After being healed, given soup and water, Mika smiled slightly. "Thank you. It really wasn't nessecary, but thank you." As much as she didn't like to admit it, she was glad she had gotten healed. Though, she hoped that her arm was still untouched. Mika didn't want her arm to have been healed, otherwise she would have to mark it again. Frankly, she really wasn't looking forward to that prospect. Deciding to make sure, she pulled up her sleeve, to check on the marks. They didn't sting as much as they had the night before, which she hoped meant that they were still there. Giving one a gentle touch, and feeling the twinge of pain made her smile. Still there...

As she took a sip of soup, Mika sighed happily. It felt better to actually be able to breathe without the ache of broken ribs. Actually being able to breathe was a good thing as well. "Mmmm... this soup is delicious. Thank you." She didn't mention that it was a tad on the hot side, so she quickly took a sip of the cool water Chiriko had made for her, to still the burn. "Ahhh... Thanks Chiriko."

Pausing in her soup consumption, Mika turned her head to look at Tamahome. He seemed worried about something. He's probably still wondering why I stabbed myself. She sighed, putting the bowl down. "What's wrong? Why do you look so down? If it's about me stabbing myself, I can explain that... it'll sound a bit odd, but it is true."

Drive left the throne room and walked down the hall to the dining area.
Drive knew he had probly pissed Kyo off but he never hired anyone who came to him looking to be a bandit. The two jugs of wine were just a ploy, it alowed him to get a few laugh and gave him an excuse to say no. If they drank he would give them an answar like the one he gave Kyo if the didn't he just say they were weak or didn't follow orders well.

Drive enters the dining area. "hey sis" Drive gives her a sheepish grin "how bout a hug ".

Tamahome blinked when Mika turned to talk to him. "Oh... yeah, but I just don't like seeing you hurt. I don't know why it bothers me to much, but it does." He looked down and swallowed a bit, "I know, I'm strange, you wouldn't be the first person to think that. Being by yourself has that affect on a person." He was only babbling now, rather then admitting he was starting to have deeper feelings for the bandit princess... She is like a princess... I don't know why, but she sparkles. His cheeks turned a dark shade of red.

When Drive came in, Tamahome snapped his head in his direction and frowned, about to stay something, but he was able to contain his tongue... just barely.

Tamahome just held up his hand, "Don't worry about it Mika, you don't have to explain youreself to me." Sun Li didn't care that it was some stupid bandit tradition, but he couldn't believe she wasn't even alittle angry she'd been beat up by her brother. She was smiling as if nothing happened. He'd been taught at a young age, only the weakest of men hurt a woman like that. He stood, "Please excuse me." He went out the door, heading toward his room.

His green eyes met her's, he was troubled, it was obvious. "Your own brother hurt you... pretty badly. I don't care why, your his family, he shouldn't of done that. This thieves code seems to end up hurting you in the end! This isn't something was sweet and caring person should have to do, you shouldn't have to fight and kill, it's just... not right." He went to turn back around to keep going. He was so agitated that she could see the ogre symbol shining through his thin pants.

He reached up and placed his hand on the side of her neck and gently caressed her cheek with his thumb. "It hurt to see you get injured, my heart ached. I know about what happened on the road last night. When I went to get the bandages, the women were all upset and told me what happened." He spoke with a soft, caring voice... "I damn fate for making such a beautiful and kind woman make those decisions. There is more to you then thievery, I can see it in your eyes."
