He turned to Marina who wasn't looking at her best as well. She seemed disappointed, but he couldn't tell if it was because something he said, or something that had gotten to her before. " Do you need a car? " she asked, and he figured she didn't see his car that was just feet away from them. " It's alright, " he said, motioning to his own. " I look forward to when we meet next, Mr. Jackson. " she said, then sighed. Harley watched her face for a long time. She was . . . disappointed, somehow. Let down? By what? He sighed himself and moved a stray hair out of her face. " Me, as well. " he said, leaning in to kiss her on the cheek. He put one of his hands in his pockets and began to walk down the stairs, to his car, " See you at BAE, " he called back, looking back at her and winking. Just twenty minutes later, the Sario Estate was behind him and he was on his way home, near the bay. The drive had made him even more drowsy, but he was glad that he didn't fall asleep on the highway. He trudged up the steps, and then opened his house. It was strange; he was expecting it to be just like every other time he'd walked into it, but it wasn't. He felt relief. Happiness. Something normal. His home was something normal. He had missed it. With a renewed content, he tossed his stuff on the couch and pulled himself over to his room to see something surprising on his bed. Vanille, and she was fast asleep. He looked around for any sign as to why she was here, but was left clueless. He shrugged and decided to sleep on the couch tonight. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Okay, probably the last person you want to see posting here, HAHA. But I'm really interested! If I do go for it, I will force myself to sing, and get said singing in on time. . . . I will kill myself, if I have to.
[ T U M B L R • CURRENTLY OBSERVING : MARINA SARIO • L A T E S T ][ OOC : TIRED. ][ DAY : 15 - 3/3 ] • [ DECEMBER 14, 2012 ] • [ LOCATION : HALLWAYS ][ YOU • ME • NAMES • LINKS • HATRED ] • [ MOOD : TIRED ] [/url] In the time frame that Harley searched for Marina, his mood had gone from bad to worse. He couldn't believe how lethargic he was feeling, and he pretty much wanted nothing more than to go home and sleep. He sighed, when he turned down another hallway and found no trace of the girl. " Hell ~ o there, Mr. Jackson, " came a too-lively voice, and Harley sighed again; well, at least he didn't have to search for her whereabouts anymore. When he turned around, he was expecting the girl to be in day clothing, but apparently not. He'd heard that sleeping in silk was the next best thing to sleeping naked. She was still fairly attractive to Harley, but goddamn, he was tired, and he didn't know why, " Good afternoon, Marina, " he told her, making his way up to her and adjusting her shoulder strap so that it wasn't hanging off her shoulder anymore. He always thought he'd prefer girls in a shirt that was too big for them, so the collar hung off one of their shoulders, but this hadn't been so bad either, " I was just looking for you. " He trailed his way behind her and to her other side. Marina, he confirmed by talking to some of the servants, and calling up some friends, was definitely a female version of himself, but Harley didn't like that. Didn't like dealing with himself, and he definitely wouldn't want to deal with her, not if that was the way it really was. He couldn't deny Marina's attractiveness, or their obvious attraction to each other, but it was purely sexual, and they could both use one and other for it. Harley could have been called a fool, but he definitely wasn't one to let himself be used. " I've gotta get home soon. " he said, " I need sleep, and gotta get ready to head to BAE soon. " He considered pulling some elaborate lie about why he needed to go home, but he realized what he said was the truth, and then he rubbed at his eyes. It was going to be a long drive home. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I will not have it.xxxI swear, if you take this much further, you will regret it, dearly.❞ Playing the piano had given her a great comfort, she realized. After the heated phone call with Lorinda, she had felt like . . . like . . . killing something. It had been an extremely unpleasant feeling, and it was better for her to have not given into the murderous urge. Something like that could easily become a habit, and no one would want that, not from her. Just before the song was over, she had heard the door click shut, and one of her hands went to her lap as she turned around, but no one was there. They must have not wanted to bother her; and with good reason that they were unaware of. She sighed as she moved away from the instrument. She no longer had any reason to be here. After searching for a servant, she told them to send Marina her gratitude, and that she was leaving. Some two hours later, she was home, and her father was, too. It was surprising, but she found him in the hidden library, gazing up at his painting of her mother. Upon seeing him, her face softened and she realized that she had missed him so much. It had been days since their last physical encounter, and she was suddenly feeling so childish. He turned around to see her, a soft smile on his face, and she could feel tears welling up in her eyes. " Welcome home, Kalli. " he said, holding out his arms, and before she knew what overcame her, she was running to him, and crashed her face into his chest, crying like she hadn't before. She had missed him - as much as she didn't want to admit it, she had missed her father. She was only a teenager, after all - could she really be expected to pull the task of Adonis? Towards the end of her hug, she realized what had been said, about them not actually existing before the game, or even after it. None of them had existed. She had not know her father, her mother? Those horrible things that she had done, those horrible things that had happened . . . They really didn't? It was a large pill to swallow, and it was one that was having no effect on her. She wondered what effects it would have on say . . . Madeline. Her heart beat louder than normal at the thought. Perhaps she could text her? No . . . Madeline would not want to hear from her. She cooped herself up in her room. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Vanille was gone before he had even woken up, no trace of her left behind. He shrugged; she seemed self-sufficient, so it wasn't any big deal to him. As long as the chick hadn't stolen his car, it was fine. He dressed in the same clothing from yesterday and set out to find Marina, to tell her that he was going home. The trip had pretty much been a waste. All of them had learned practically nothing, which was fine because it left him to find things out on his own, which would put him at an advantage. Distantly, he heard piano playing, and he pegged it as Marina, as she played the instrument so well yesterday. He followed his ears and it led him to the same parlor, and he cracked open the door to have the rich sound become louder and more flowing, but it wasn't Marina. Ah. Kallisti. No, not today. He quietly shut the door and left, setting out again to look for the hostess. If he didn't find her within the next twenty minutes, he'd probably head home to wait for his letter from BAE. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I will not have it.xxxI swear, if you take this much further, you will regret it, dearly.❞ Kallisti woke early that morning, strangely disappointed that she didn't have any dreams. It had been a very long time since she yearned to have a dream, one that contained the person she had created when she was younger; imaginary friend, if you will. Then again, she never really needed her dreams after they had manifested herself in her mind. She had a servant retrieve her bag from her car so that she could dress for a day and decide to head home. Last night had been something of a waste, besides the fact that there was a Rhia, and that Theodore boy was fairly interested in her. She was neither in the position of the players nor that of Crestatia and Analynne. A spectator, perhaps? How was Madeline, she wondered? It had only been a day or so since they had last seen each other, but she seemed to have a bad situation overall, and Kallisti was . . . worried. She shuddered at the thought. It was detrimental to be getting wrapped up in this and she knew it. She sighed and, after dressing, left the room in search of her hostess. She would probably find her wherever Harley was. How ridiculous could that idiot get . . . She walked down a few halls at a loss for direction, and then saw the girl slip into another room, Kallisti following after her. The door shut and she heard voices. Ah, it would be best not to bother. In her pocket, her phone vibrated. She pulled it out and looked at the number; private. Bollocks. Who was this? God, should she answer it? Should she not? " . . . Hello? " she said, still standing in front of the door unknowingly. " Hello, darling. " came the other voice, and Kallisti stiffened, her eyes narrowing at the wall in front of her. " . . . Lorinda. " she acknowledged coolly. " Now, now, that's no way to speak to your loving grandmother. " the woman said with a complacent tone, " I was just calling to check up on you, that's all. I have heard your currently at the Sario Estate, with Miss Marina. How are Richard and Julia? " Kallisti continued to look at the wall, " I know neither of those people. " she replied, " What do you want, Lorinda? You never call me unless it is to torture me endlessly about how I - " " - killed my daughter, yes? " " How dare you. " " Hmhmhm, no my dear, how dare you. " she responded curtly, " Insolent child. I doubt you know the extents I went through to keep your bloody record clean, considering all of your past shenanigans with Harley. " Kallisti flinched openly at her tone and the past that she brought up, " You really should be grateful to me for your easy life. " Dear god, this woman had to be joking. Easy life? That was a complete load of bull, easy life. It made her want to scream at the woman, but she would not be giving her that pleasure. Lorinda thrived on her negative emotions, always had, and always would. " You are a vile woman, Lorinda Lein, " Kallisti said, trying to keep her nerves, " I wish to have nothing to do with you. Please do not call me back. " Perhaps she did have some nerve, speaking to the woman like this, one of the most dangerous people she had ever met, but . . . " Goodbye, Lorinda. " " All in due time, my dear, I shall see you soon. " The line went dead, and Kallisti decided she didn't like the sound of that at all . . . She slipped her phone back in her pocket and she realized that she was still standing in front of the door. Oh, good god. Hopefully no one in the room had heard. For a few more minutes, she stood outside the hallway and then decided to find the parlor with the pianp. Upon realizing she was extremely bored, she decided to give this piano a shot, wondering if it was in any good shape. ♚ ｒｅｓｔｌｅｓｓ ✖ ｓｕｅ ｇｅｎｅｒｉｓ ♚ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Not surprised within the least, and 2.5 will probably be seeing an early to mid 2014 release ( and then 2015 is the year of Kingdom Hearts III [ HAHA ] Probably not. ). Coded, no doubt, will be given the 358/2 Days treatment, just as Libre said. And as for Dream Drop Distance . . . There's a chance that it could be a part of 2.5, but since it's fairly recent, and the 3D was a big appeal of it, I don't see it making the final cut. Looking forward to updates.
There had been quite a plethora of valuable information being given at this . . . meeting, but considering the situation, Kallisti didn't know how much of it she could use, and how much of it was . . . legitimate. The boy named Theodore seemed particularly interested in Marina's mention of an entity named . . . Rhia, but she couldn't understand why. If Rhia was like Analynne and Crestatia . . . Well, Marina seemed to make it clear that she wasn't. After hearing what Marina had to say on the matter, she quietly left the room and returned to her guest bedroom, slipping into sleep for the night. --- Kallisti had left the room and Harley saw no reason to stay either. It was kind of weird, all these people in one room, and no crazy disaster had happened. He was surprised. And wary. The longer something didn't happen, the sooner something would, and more people would die for it. He wondered what interested Theo so much on Rhia, but didn't question it. Vanille, it seemed, was not all childish as she looked, and she would be a definite asset to Harley in the future. She was a slippery one, but he could handle her. He said goodnight to Marina and the others, and then left the room to sleep. --- Vanille was glad that she had been paid attention to, because she definitely wanted to help. Even though she wanted to discuss more, it was getting late, and Harley and Quin had already left the room. That other girl, Olivia . . . and that yelling, how weird! Tiredly, but happily, Vanille said good night to the others and mentioned that they should continue the meeting tomorrow, and then ran off to her shared room with Harley to already find him sleeping. She giggled and hopped into bed herself, falling asleep not to long after.

Vanille listened with interest to what these other time travelers had to say as she pulled her knees up to her chest and rested her chin on them. ❝. . . I wish to hear further on how this time reversal was triggered and I thought the rest of you might like to learn of the trials. We uncovered quite a bit from that event.❞ Marina said, and Vanille perked up, knowing the explanation of the first part of her question, since no one else knew it. She was tempted to raise her hand and wave it excitedly in the air, but these people were super serious, and she didn't want to upset them. Another boy spoke, one named Benjamin and Vanille recognized him from the Academy. She hopped up from the chair and began to walk around the living room, listening to the words and thinking at the same time. ❝. . . time reversal, we'd need someone who was still . . . around at the time.❞ he said, and she perked up, stilling in her spot and looking at him, ❝Do you know of any of the others who remember? When we met at Ishmael, Olivia seemed to hint that she did, but . . .❞ He trailed off. This was it, her time to join! ❝I was there, at the meeting.❞ she began brightly, and then motioned to Theo, ❝He was hosting a meeting too, at Antilum Labs, and then when we all got together to start talking, Harley said the witch's name, and she sent us back in time after the meeting room had blown up.❞ She walked around and was standing between the chair where Theo sat and the couch where Harley sat, ❝I'll be honest!❞ she began again, spinning around smoothly, ❝I don't think the witch sent us back in time to save Madeline Moore and Temperance Spike, and I don't think she sent us back in time to save anyone else. She did it for her own amusement. But maybe, maybe ~ there was something that happened between days twelve and fourty-five that we could have changed to set the game in a completely different direction.❞ Of course, this was just a theory . . . One that she hadn't been thinking on for very long, but it was a start? Maybe, maybe ~ ❝There's also no real indication why she chose who she did to remember the past - but maybe the people who do remember have to do with the change that might need to take place. Maybe.❞ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

( OOC :: AAAAAAAAH, MY EYES, THEY'RE HURTING! ; ~ ; )( DAY :: 14 - 2/3 ) • ( DECEMBER 13, 2012 ) • ( LOCATION :: DINING ROOM // LIVING ROOM )( YOU • ME • NAMES • LINKS • HATE ) • ( MOOD :: EMBARRASSED ) [/url] Vanille hadn't exactly meant to be so eager with Theodore, and felt bad when she made him feel uncomfortable. She was tempted to apologize, but she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of him. Well, it would be better to apologize than save herself. Put others before herself, that's what mom always said. ❝Ye-yeah. Nice to . . . uh. Meet you? Where do you know me from? Wait, no . . . I bet you're one of the time travelers, huh?❞ She took a step away from him and nodded her head, ❝Mmhm!❞ she let out with a smile, ❝And . . . s - sorry about jumping on you like that. It was just really nice to see you again!❞ It was probably better to leave him alone for now. She didn't want him to hate her or anything. ❝. . . Where is everyone else?❞ Vanille looked around the room to see a few other people, but saw few of them. Marina had said something about the living room, and to come to the dining room only if they were hungry. She wasn't, but some of the others seemed to be grabbing food. ❝I think we're supposed to be going to the living room . . .❞ she said unsure of herself, looking around, and then she saw Quin stand from the table and walk out, Harley watching after her with a frown covered up with an amused look. She thought about following Quin, since they were supposed to be going to the living room anyway, but she felt a little awkward as she looked around at the others. Not knowing what to do made her feel hot in the face and she felt like she might cry. ❝I - I think I'll just go to the l - living room . . .❞ she mumbled in a voice that she was failing to control. Vanille quickly left the room and when she was standing out in the hall, looked around for anyone. Seemingly no one was around, so she swiftly removed her mask, wiped her eyes and calmed herself before slipping it back on. Quin was already sitting on a couch when she came into the living room and so Vanille sat in another seat close to her, but not on the same couch. It was a habit of hers to talk to people too much and annoy them and make them push her away. It wouldn't be the first time, either. She waited for others to fill the room. A few minutes later, Harley came to sit on a chair that was across from Quin and the two seemingly had a staring contest, one that Quin lost many times. It was enjoyable to watch the two of them, but she wondered if Harley had a crush on Quin or not. Although that sounded strange because of their blood relation, it really wasn't. They didn't have any blood relation, after all. She giggled to herself and waited for others. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I will not have it.xxxI swear, if you take this much further, you will regret it, dearly.❞ The girl who had introduced herself as Vanille Frost was very strange, and Kallisti made note to be wary of her, for one should never trust those who wear a literal mask to hide their face. She was extremely displeased to be thrust into that parlor, into that situation with Harley, where another girl was in his hand. He knew that she didn't like to see that, especially from him. She had been disgusted, but politely masked it as not to be rude to her hostess. " Kallisti, " She tried her best not to glare at the girl, deciding that she already didn't like her. No one referred to her as Kallisti. She hated that. " it is a pleasure to see you again. Last time things ended under rather unfortunate circumstances. " Hmm, she wondered what kind of unfortunate circumstances. Perhaps she had put an arrow in her? They had gotten into some sort of fight? She had been coaxed into a small, tight space where they were all nearly killed? Her sharp blue eyes followed down to where Marina's hand was connected to Harley's but masked her disgust perfectly. They were getting off on the wrong foot. " . . . did not give you too much hassle at the gate did they? " " No, they did not. " she replied, her voice smooth and clear of all negative emotions. She hoped no one touched her violin in the back seat. Perhaps it hadn't been the best idea to leave it there, but if disaster just happened to befall her home again, it would be best if it stayed with her. She raised an eyebrow upon hearing the pause Marina gave, and nearly rolled her eyes. Of course, what did she expect? A high class, daughter-of-a-senator to be accepting of the lower classes? She watched the hand exchange of Marina and Harley. She then left them, and Kallisti looked to Harley. " You are extremely disgusting. " she said sharply. " Happy to see you again, too, love. " he told her, stepping forward and closer to her, " Jealous? " Kallisti laughed coldly, " Whoever would be jealous of one of your whores, darling? " she said, after the two of them were left alone in the room, " And I am your cousin. What do I care of what you do in the bedroom? " They were now standing in too close of a proximity, " I'unno, maybe you're into incest. " It took all she had not to slap him, " Come, your Miss Marina awaits us. " and she walked out of the room, fixing her teal cardigan at the shoulder where Harley had tugged at it. Vanille had been waiting outside of the door for the both of them and chastised them playfully for taking so long. Kallisti smiled at her, glared at Harley, and then followed the skipping girl as she called after Casey. The three of them arrived in the dining hall and Vanille seemed excited upon seeing another boy with dark, short hair and green eyes, " Theodore! " she said happily, hopping over to him and shaking his hand vigorously, " It's nice to see you again ~ " Kallisti observed the boy she was talking to, but felt she didn't recognize him at all. If he was a friend of Marina's, he was no doubt no better than she was. She took a seat at the table and when the servant offered her food, she coolly rejected and he was on his way. YOU CAN BE PRETTY CRUEL WHEN YOU WANT TO, HUH? I do not like people, it is my general nature. THAT'S NOT WHAT I SEE WITH THE MOORE GIRL. You keep that to yourself. Madeline is different. DOUBTFUL. Kal, I will not have it, shut up. YEEEEES MA'AM! Coming was a bad idea, she decided. Perhaps it could be made more interesting. Of course, that interesting might be disaster and death. Then again, she supposed so long as it wasn't hers . . . She wasn't quiet ready to die yet. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
( OOC :: FILLER POST IS FILLER )( DAY :: 14 - 2/3 ) • ( DECEMBER 13, 2012 ) • ( LOCATION :: PARLOR )( YOU • ME • NAMES • LINKS • HATE ) • ( MOOD :: TEEHEE ) [/url] Vanille had faked sleeping that morning when Harley left. She tried to keep her shaking and sweating to a minimum and really wanted to pull the covers over her face so he couldn't see it, but she knew that if she made any moves, he would have known for certain that she was awake. After he left the room, she sat up in her bed and stared at the door for a few minutes, then cried a few more. After she was done, she quietly dressed, slipped on her shoes and pulled out a mask that came from seemingly nowhere. Before slipping on her mask, she stepped in front of a large body mirror, just like she did every morning. She stared hard at her face, and then at the mark on her cheek, then at the tribal tattoo on her upper arm. She would never dress in front of anyone, never let them see the rest of her body. It's a good thing that, for the most part, her arms, neck, and legs were clear of any marks. She sighed and slipped on her tribal, trickster wolf mask and left the room for the entrance of the mansion. Tumblr said that Kallisti was on her way, and Vanille wanted to be the first person to see her in! She skipped lightly down the hallway, and then when she came to the double staircase of the entrance, she looked around. Only one or two servants were standing, so she giggled and sat side-saddled on the railing, then slid down it's curved form, hopping off before she met the break. The servant that was standing by the main doors gave her a look of disgust, but she shrugged it off, giggled, and then told him to open the door for her. Having servants was so much fun, especially when they were lighthearted! All of these ones really sucked, she thought to herself as the door opened. She stood on the stairs and watched the drive for about ten minutes, and then a car rounded the large fountain, driving up in front of the house. It was Kallisti, she was here! Vanille tried to keep her composure, but she was bouncing on the balls of her feet in anticipation as the girl stepped out of the car and removed the sunglasses from her face and put them into a bag in the back. She seemed really hesitant, and Vanille standing there like that probably didn't make her feel any better. ❝Hi!❞ Vanille said chipperly as the other slowly walked up the steps. ❝. . . Hello.❞ she replied, halfway up the steps, ❝. . . Are you Miss Marina Sario?❞ she asked, and then Vanille giggled. ❝Of course not!❞ she responded, ❝My name's Vanille Frost, but you can call me Vanilla or Frosty, if you want!❞ ❝I see,❞ she said as the two of them then walked into the large and grand estate, ❝I am Quintus Lein, but you may call me Quin, if you so prefer.❞ Vanille turned to a servant after nodding vigorously, ❝Could you tell us where Marina Sario is?❞ she asked, and the servant then showed them to a parlor. After the servant left them, Vanille turned to Kallisti and put her finger to her lips, and then quietly cracked open the door to observe the room's occupants. She saw Marina walking around a small couch where Harley was sitting and then making herself comfortable beside him. He began to play with her hair for a few minutes as the two of them talked, and then at the opportune moment . . . ❝Harleeeeey!❞ she sang, suddenly grabbing Kallisti's hand and dragging her along. She grinned in delight under her mask at seeing Harley's reaction, ❝She just got here ~ ❞ she replied, and Kallisti was subtly trying to take her own hand back, but Vanille wasn't having it; this situation was just too much fun! After the somewhat mute exchange, she gauged the faces of Marina, Harley, and Kallisti, but before anything else could be said, someone else joined them. ❝Good morning, everybody.❞ said the boy, and at first, Vanille thought it was a girl. Boy, her hair was really pink! But then, after a few moments, she recognized that face, and realized she had been at Theo's party - and not only that, but she wasn't a girl, she was a boy! ❝My name is Casey, it's nice to meet you all.❞ At that point, Vanille had let go of Kallisti's hand and took Casey's to shake it enthusiastically, ❝It's nice to see you again!❞ she said cheerfully, ❝Your hair is really pink, but you dyed it black on a later day, and it made you look more like a boy. I think you should do that again so people aren't confused!❞ She giggled and then the room was quiet. ❢xxxxxxxx❢xxxxxxxx❢xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

" Marina replied, now facing Harley with her hands folded neatly in her lap, and then proceeded to list off the names of the students. He recognized a few of the last names, but nothing more than that. So, he'd be going to school with these kids? He'd have to remember to keep an ear out for their names and an eye out for their faces. " As for your fellow Bellhurst companions . . . " and then she listed off all of the kids he knew. " I did, however, extend a personal invitation to your dear cousin, Kallisti. " Harley raised an eyebrow and was immediately on guard to how she knew her. " I do hope she comes. I have not seen her since the helicopter crashed. " Helicopter crash? This must have been in Timeline One because he remembered nothing about a helicopter crash in the news. " I see. " Harley replied, slipping his hands into his pockets. So Kallisti was on her way here, huh? He didn't peg her as the type, but since Marina's name was in the email, it wasn't all that surprising. Marina stood and Harley kept his eyes on her as she moved around, and then pulled a deck of cards and her phone from her pants. They were pretty tight on here, weren't they? He wouldn't mind taking them off if they both weren't playing for dominance. Of course, she was smaller than him and he was no doubt stronger than her. It wouldn't be hard to pin her down. She rounded him with her fingers gliding lightly over his shoulders, and then came to sit beside him, " I must say, I am rather pleased Vanille brought you. " she began and he began to twist a lock of her hair between his fingers gently, " We did not get the opportunity to speak the last time we saw one and other, however, you do not remember. How sad. " He hummed, " Mmm . . . How sad, indeed. " The both of them knew where this was probably going. " Oh well. This time around seems much better than the last. " He guessed it was, even though he had nothing to go on. For a few minutes, he continued to play with her hair and then leaned in to place his lips to her ne - " Harleeeeey! " sang a voice, and with a heavy, dismal sigh, Harley sat up and settled for resting his arm on the couch top behind Marina. Vanille hopped into the parlor, and in her hand was Kallisti.
