Welcome to Gaia! ::

(500TH IS MINE!!!!!!

I was just waiting for your post so I could steal it, Dioji... Like I said, I know just when to post...)

(It's real simple, every page only holds fifteen posts, I was counting each post until it got to fourteen... And then I just waited for you.)

(... I would kill... I would very much kill... ^_^)

((I would be dead, but the funny part. ;D I'm waiting for you guys...))

((It's not that we were fighting, we were having a friendly.. teasing moment.
I liked the idea of Vaati hanging onto the ceiling. ^^))

"I smell dogs. Why are dogs here? I CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS!" Vaati shouted, keeping all four paws o the ceiling,

"I don't know about you, but I'm surprised he could jump that high, especially since he looked so sick. And he's going to need a knew lamp..." Ezlo sighed, staring at Vaati.

"That doesn't help the smell!" Vaati cried out, before he fell and hit the floor. He managed to twisted his body around and landed on his feet before he darted to the underside of the bed.

Lisaya scuttled to her feet, embarrassed for spying on her husband. However, she would have to admit; with the pictures gone, the room was a lot less creepy. "Helios..."

As soon as he heard something fall behind him, He jumped up and turned. He saw Lisaya then he relaxed. Though he didn't want her to see what he just did. He ignored Darious. He would somehow get the paintings back. "Lisaya... how long have you been standing there?" He would kill himself for being so careless... 'specially talking about her brother like that.

Lisaya looked away as she walked over and sat on the bed. "Quite a while I'm afraid.... Helios... what you said... about dueling... Arious.. is it true... You tried to kill him?" Pain was in her eyes as she looked down. How could she live with a man that almost succeeded in murdering her brother?

Helios immediately grabbed her hand sat next to her pulling her close. "Lisaya... I'm sorry... I asked him.. politely if he would approve... but he said 'how do I know you can protect her?' So he challenged me to a duel... and unfortunately... I won. It was all in good sport, really..." He twisted half of that around... He was the one to attack Arious unawares and such... Ah but... He hardly ever let her know the truth about things...

Lisaya sighed and wrapped her arms around Helios. "If you say so.... then I believe you. I know you would never lie to me Helios..." She rested her head on his shoulder a little tired. She was worn out and it felt as there was a basketball in her belly. It had been at least a couple of months now.. She would ask Silver about it later.

Helios didn't respond. He couldn't look into her eyes.... He felt a little guilty for deceiving her all the time. She was just so innocent. He picked her up gently and laid her on the bed and sighed. "Stay with me tonight...." he whispered in her ear. He heard her sigh gently and move to untie the laces of her dress. He smiled at how she wasn't even shy around him any more... though she always did slip under the covers mighty quick... so maybe she was. He dimmed the lights and snuggled close to his voice and kissed her neck, enjoying every moment of his loved one.

Arious picked up April and smiled. "Ah well.. I am not sure, but I do know she cannot leave a sweet one like you for a long time!" He chuckled as he tickled her chin. In one hand he grabbed his thin shirt. He let go of April and she bounced in the air with violet magic as he put his shirt on and buttoned it up. He slipped his favorite purple cloak on and smiled as April floated back to him. He kissed her forehead lightly and opened the door to see Kaze standing there. "Oh, hi there..." He gave a smile as he brushed one of his reddish brown stands of hair behind his ear. His dark emerald eyes peered at him curiously. "Have we met?"

Rugen laughed. "It is quite interesting then. I wonder though... do you know how to dance, my fine lady?" He laughed as he reappeared behind her. His favorite magic was warping around people. He thought it was fun. He snapped his fingers as instruments appeared in the corner. Ghost hands started play a slow waltz. "Might I have this dance?" He smiled as he flicked his top hat into his chair with accuracy.

((I'm stealing Shadow back Silver!!!))

Shadow sat alone in his own palace. He stared at the painting he had on the wall. It was total darkness, but he could see every outline and every detail in all the paintings. He sighed as he sipped a glass of wine.He could not let her go... he would wait for his chance... "Lisaya... I should have taken you away... never let you go..." he whispered. He shook his head in disgust of himself.
