tam lies away for a long time, then slowly falls asleep, but his dreams are troubled... not as badly s they might have been before the gem children began looking after him, but his ties to bez run deep and he fear them.... almost as much as he fears bez himself....

*Kero senses his sira's dreams as soon as he feels him fall alseep...at his summons, All twelve appear in the room, each taking turns to touch Tam, except for a few...He feels the Garnet's love, the blinding truth of amethyst, the compassion of Aquamarine, the strength of the Diamond, the Emerald's Honor, the Joy of the Ruby, the Peace of the Peridot, the Hope withing the Opal, and the Faith within the Topaz, all reminding him of the good things in Life...Lapis touches him to, blessing him with good fortune, and Sapphire soon shatters the illusions that blind him from seeing what is good...slowly, his dreams fade away, replaced with the love he has earned by caring for their small sibling...Kero touches him too, reminding him that he still needs him, and that he loves him*

with their help tam throws off his unconscious depression and sinks into a dreamless sleep cuddling with the cub, keeping warm, physically and emotionally...

*Kero wraps his emotions in his own love...he's becoming a tough little empath...keeping his mind safe from outside harm...until the two wake in the morning...and the usual morning curses from Kero begin...complete with pillow stuffed over head*

*Kero giggles at the tickling...and when Tam arrives at the house and checks the water closet...the door slams behind him...not locking...but certainly shut*
Note: Yeah...big prank...haunted house...

startled, tam opens the door and begins to look around, trying to find an open window, the scent of someone who shouldn't be there... anything to have caused the door to shut

hmmm... thinks tam, that was certainly odd... but he likes the lay out of the house, which is really more of a small cottage, complete with a small sitting garden in the back.... with one bedroom in a loft and another off the main room... and besides the necessary water closet... is open and inviting.... he suspects he'll be forced to take tht loft area, but really doesn't mind as it gives him access to the roof which has a perfect area to view the sky... kero's little legs would have trouble on the steep stairs which leads up to it

*As he explores, he hears moans and groans...small things clatter to the floor...doors shut behind him...one locks him in for a few minutes...ghostly music wings through the house...and small things gibber at the corners*

it is all a bit overblown... tam has been in haunted houses before and this is layered on rather heavily so he suspects something... sitting down by the hearth, he pulls out his little wood harp and begins playing a merry seeking tune... designed to pin point the perpetrator with a rosy aura... whoever is doing this will be brought to light by a rosy haze surrounding them... if it is a ghost he'll find it... if it is a prankster... the nest time he sees them, they'll glow like a cherry

*A muffled string of curses comes from a closet as Kero stumbles out, rimmed with a red glow*

tam laughs and goes to help him up... red looks good on ye, dulcha.... i suspected it might be ye... but i wasn't certain... don't worry... it will wear off in about oh... 3 or 4 days.... and when kero glares at him threatening to claw his leg he laughs again... ok... in 3 to 4o hours... it's not that strong of a spell... ok?

*Kero nods, though he's not too happy about it...and walks away...muttering to himself when out of earshot of Tam*

tam hears him but doesn't have the heart to break it to him that his prank was a universal one that many young children play in old houses... and even though he suspected kerobian, he wasn't absolutely sure if it was truly him or another child behind the manifestations... all of which was too overblown to be the real thing.... real haunted houses were a bit more subtle and the effects longer lasting.... he finds the owner of the cottage and is surprised to find that it is either up for sale or rent... after a bit of dickering he decides to actually purchase the building outright... it would be nice to have a bolt hole in the region, a place to go to when they were tired of the road and he was already growing fond of the village and it's inhabitants, all of whom have accepted both he and the cub without reservation.....
