{*huffs* FINE} {JUMP AROUND WHAT DOES THAT MEAN} {Fenris is a smol that needs to be loved honestly you will adore him. Elves are fab} {LOLOL SERIOUSLY? that song is super popular, my best friend sings it all the time xDDD} {omfg alaska. ALASKA. ALASKA CAN NICKNAME HIM SQUIRREL.}
Lumi's features immediately softened as he said what he did, feeling the same warmth from yesterday spread throughout her chest. He was so sweet... Instead of letting her speak, or maybe even forcing it out of her, he told her it would be okay not to talk about it, seeing as she had been so messed up about it. But even so, as much as she didn't want to speak about it, she should just tell him. It was an important part of her life... One of the two that she hadn't really spoken about. She wasn't really ready at all to talk about the other one, infact, she'd only ever told one person, which was Alaska and that was because she had been there, but Archer... She wasn't about to leave Loran in the dark to wonder what in the world she was freaking out about.
So she moved to sit beside him, leaning over to rest her head against his shoulder, taking a deep breath, "No, no... It's okay. It's pathetic I haven't gotten over it yet." she said quietly, closing her eyes once before opening them, and then beginning to talk, "I'm turning 20 this year, right? So... A couple of years ago, when I was about 16, I was in a situation where I didn't have anywhere to live. I was working to have a place to stay at a local inn, and there I met Archer." she took another deep breath, before continuing to speak, "Archer and I soon started courting. I moved into his house where he lived alone- His parents were rich and so was he, and he was a couple years older than me. Of course, we had a nice relationship at the beginning, and I could even consider him a first love, though I don't like the idea of it. Soon enough, he began coming home from work grumpy and angry, and he would take it out on... M-Me."
It was hard to admit how stupid and helpless she had been in the relationship, and kind of hard to admit it to Loran, or anyone, for that matter. She hadn't had anyone to talk to about it when it happened seeing as she closed herself out from anyone, including Alaska. Art had been her only escape at that time, "First it was yelling and bickering, and I was so confused but upset with how he was treating me, so I fought back. But than, one day... He hit me, right across the cheek. And everything went downhill from there." she didn't say any specfics. She didn't tell Loran she used to count the bruises on her body in the bathroom whenever she was alone, or sit and cry from how sore her body was. But, it wasn't that hard to imagine what Archer had done to her, "I was with him for almost two years, until one day he was particularly moody, and h-he..." she stopped for a moment, removing her head from Loran's shoulder and putting a hand to her face like she had the night before, as if remembering the event caused her pain, "H-He forced me to c-cross a line I c-can never go b-back on." she managed to get out, holding back tears that threatened to overflow before regaining her composure, letting her hand fall, "I left a while after, b-but he still haunts me whenever possible." she whispered, turning her gaze towards Loran.
Her eyes were still watery as she stared at him, almost as if searching for any kind of reaction that Lumi was 'impure' or something. She didn't know how important it was to elves, but to humans, it was a pretty big deal. You were seen as scummy, or worse, "I'm... Sorry, Loran." she apologized, though she wasn't sure what she was apologizing for. She always had to when she was with him, and the memories of him just brought all those insecurities back.

(What more can I do?) (Lol, since they don't get married, they're free to choose whoever they have intimate relations with. So they have a new lover whenever they feel like it. XD) (Elves are the best, and now I want to play the game even more!) (Lol, yeah, I've heard it a million times without any thought to it, and now I have a character to attach it to. XD) (Alright then. So let it be spoken, so let it be done. XD And then he can give her the nickname of Wolf or Mutt in return. XD)
Loran was silent as he listened to her explain. His arm had wrapped around her shoulders, his hand rubbing her arm gently. He had no idea how difficult if was for her to admit all of this to him. It would be only in the future that he would feel honored that she had trusted him enough to confide in him with this burden of hers. Now, however, the only thing he felt was disgust and rage.
How dare the man mistreat Lumi that way! She was a sweet, kind, smart girl with a personality everyone would have trouble not getting along with her. To think that the man could even think of raising his hand to harm harm made his gut twist in disgust. And the fact that he had forced himself upon a girl so young made his blood boil in pure hatred. though elves did have looser morals concerning intimate relations, only the really messed up elves would dare take advantage of a woman. Partly because Elven woman were something to be feared when they were furious, and mainly because it was the worst crime to ever commit. Unconsciously, Loran's arm tightened around her, holding her closer. His anger seethed to the point he muttered a curse of the most horrible death in Elvish to the man who had harmed her this way.
"You have nothing to be sorry for, Lumi," Loran spoke in her own tongue, pushing down his hatred for the man as best as he could. "You never have to be sorry about that. Archer was the one who should doing more than apologizing to you. He's a lowlife scum that deserves death for what he did to you, and if I ever have the pleasure to run into him, I'll be sure to let him know that." Of course, there was possibly no way he would ever cross paths with the man, but if that ever did happen, he wouldn't just let him leave without some vengeance for Lumi's sake.

{IDK WHAT CAN YOU} {yoooOOOOO Loran better know he stuck with Lumi LOL} {PLAY IT and inquisition is even better ahhhh that game was amazing} {LOL i'm laughing that's so funny, Loran's such a pure babe I love them so much ; ~ ;} {YESSS OMG ALASKA WILL GET A KICK OUT OF IT. I cannot wait for everything about this rp you better not ditch me homie} {Loran chilling shirtless and Lumi bottomless wow kids xD}
Loran looked... Angry, but not at her, at Archer. He'd never met the man, but here he was, obviously upset as he tightened his grip around her shoulders. He didn't say anything to her about her things, but he did swear under his breath in his beautiful elvish language, though she could tell it probably wasn't something good. And this made her... Happy? Why would he get so worked up for her? It was in the past, though she was scarred mentally and physically for life, and he just... He was so different and in a way, special to her. And these were probably just her crazy emotions talking right now, but she didn't regret telling Loran what happened. If anything, it released stress on her that she didn't even know was there, as if a weight had suddenly been thrown away.
She actually managed a small laugh, though it was quiet and between a small sniffle as she raised her arm to her face, rubbing her eyes as if she was tired but also to stop her eyes from hurting, "I-It's okay, it's in the past. It just feels... So good to finally tell someone." she said quietly, hoping he knew how important that had been to her, "... You're really great, Loran." she said with a small, weak smile, wanting to tell him that he was amazing and how much she appreciated him, but it made her nervous to say anything more than something that sounded borderline platonic. She was sure she felt something for Loran, it was evident by the way he made her feel, but... Was it really the right thing? She still had so many questions for him, so many things to learn... But time was running out. The trial would be soon, and then what would she do?

(I CAN GIVE YOU CONTROL OF THEIR FIRST BORN!) (Lol, since he's young, he doesn't do that stuff yet. XD Besides, he only have eyes for his little human.) (I just need to get enough money to buy it. XD) (He's too pure. I need to give him some more flaws that might stir up trouble later.) (I'M JUST AS EXCITED. IF I DITCH, KILL ME! XD) (Lol, Loran doesn't know she's going without pants. That will give him the biggest shock.)
At her laugh, Loran gazed down at her face. It was strained, but it was a nice change to the sobs that had filled the room last night. "Thank you, for telling me," he murmured. "I promise, you will have nothing like that to fear from me. If it'll make you more comfortable, I'll just move down to the couch or even by a cot if I need. We don't have to share the bed if it brings back all these memories. I want you to feel safe, like this is your home away from home. If you ever feel uncomfortable, please tell me."
The last thing he wanted was for her to feel like history would be repeating itself. Loran would do everything he could to make sure Lumi was happy as could be. He couldn't stand seeing the fear on her face, hearing her cry and beg for her safety. No, so long as he stayed in his home, it would become her home, free of terror and pain.

{MWAHAHAHA I AM RUMPELSTILTSKIN they having twins homie you gave me control} {AHHHH SCREAMS LORANXLUMI FOR LIFE} {they'll both be cheap now homie, origin the store might have them cheap} {OU LIKE WHAT TELL ME} {I WILL KILL YOU I WILL FIND YOU AND I WILL KILL YOU SCREAMS} {LOL loran: 'omg you had no pants on the whole night??? O///O'} {When there's a perfect kiss moment but they ain't at that point yet LOL}
Lumi kept feeling her heart skips beats at the sweet and caring things he said. He just... He was so... Amazing, to her. She shook her head gently, then stuck a finger forward, placing it in the middle of his chest, "You just gotta wear shirts, okay? I wasn't exactly expecting that." she said lightly, trying to move past the conversation of a couple minutes ago. Archer was in the past. She wanted Loran to know about it, but they didn't need to dwell on it, "Besides, you just keep proving to me that you're nothing like him." she added, cheeks blushing a soft pink colour and mentally kicking herself for being so gushy. But it was refreshing, she hadn't been like this in years. after Archer, she hardly even spoke with boys, maybe a couple months leading up to Loran's appearance she was gaining her confidence back. Besides, she was almost 20... I need to get married soon. But she didn't see that happening with him around, at least, how humans would like it.
{So what's next for the little beans~ The trial? }

(I was hoping you would say that! XD) (Haha, they're stuck together whether they want to be or not. XD) (I hope so. I'm so excited now. X3) (When I thing of something, you'll be the first to know.) (XD) (That pretty much sums his reaction up, lol.) (Ikr?!?! They need to get a move on. Yeah, the trial is next. The last brother may make an appearance, but it'll be a small one so we can get to the good stuff.)
Lorna gave a sheepish smile. "Right, sorry about that. I didn't think anything of it when I fell asleep, and you had already gone to bed to say anything about it. But from now on, I'll wear shirts," he promised. It wasn't like he was making a huge sacrifice or anything. It was worth it to hear her confirm that he was nothing like her ex.
After a few more seconds passed, he pulled his arm away from her, though he resented the action. The young elf didn't want to leave her side, but he knew he had responsibilities to do. "I guess I should go start breakfast," he muttered. "Afterwards, you can try and get some more sleep. You look exhausted, so why don't you just take it easy? I'll make sure no one bothers you."

Mika shook his head and headed into the room. He pulled a few pairs of sweatpants and t-shirts from the closet as well as an extra blanket and a few pillows. He returned to the living room with his arms full and he set everything down on the couch. "There should be some fresh towels in the bathroom already. Help yourself to anything okay?" He replied. He offered her another smile, hoping to help her relax a bit.

{SCREAMING AHHH THEY'RE GONNA BE SO CUTE. A boy and a girl? Two boys? Two girls? } {And it's a good thing so that's fine xD} {GO FIND THEM EXPERIENCE FENRIS AHHH} {i'm like nervous I wanna knowww} {I love pure loran his faults can be he's childish LOL} {FOR REAL i need the cute romantic them soon SOON. And okay okay lets do the trial soon af but the brother visiting is good, more developement and he can be more brutal maybe??}
Lumi smiled softly at him, laughing quietly at how cute he was. She felt kind of cold and empty when he pulled his arm away, but she pushed those two feelings away herself, shaking her head, "I think I've had enough of sleeping for one night, plus, two is better than one." she was really tired, but she was done with lying around. She wanted to get up and do stuff, help out Loran, get to know him, spend time with him. It was better than sleeping and maybe having a nightmare again, especially when Loran was busy doing something. So, for now, this was her best option.
She moved out of the sheets, hopping off the big bed and stretching. The tunic hardly raised as she did so, but it was still obviously evident she had left Loran's leggings off when she went to bed. She grabbed the leggings as she went, going to change into the dress later on if she really needed to, turning back at Loran for a second and smiling, "I'm just gonna go change, I'll be out in a moment, I'll see you downstairs." And then, she was gone, the bathroom door closing behind her as she went.

Ah ah ah, she couldn't hide anything from him. Except the whole self-harm thing that had passed under his radar for months. Besides that. "Hey. What's wrong? What was that?" he asked, tilting her chin up. "No sadness on a Christmas Eve."

(It's okay, Leuka!)
Destiny stood where she was while he hunted for the clothes. As she expected, he had brought t-shirts and sweatpants. The girl nodded as she took them from him. "Thank you," she repeated once more before awkwardly heading towards the bathroom.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
(Whichever will give their parents the most trouble, haha.) (Lol, yep!) (I SHALL!) (Oh, yeah, being childish is a major flaw, as well as getting a little too spell happy when he's angery. Fire just goes everywhere!) ((He'll be the reluctant one. Like he doesn't full out hate her, but he's not convinced he wants to stand on her side of the trial either. He's more neutral, which in a way may be more brutal than picking one side or the other. But you can guarantee the twins will be fighting for her to get punished. XD)
And wouldn't you know it? Lorna saw legs. Now, it might not seem like a big deal, but since this is a time when showing ankles were forbidden, it was something else to see see a woman's calves. Now, that was nothing compared to what he has seen, it was the realization that she hadn't worn leggings that night that caused Loran's ears to burn extremely red. He quickly turned his gaze away from her while she stood and headed to the bathroom, nodding to her comment. "Alright, I'll meet you downstairs," he replied.
Standing up himself, he quickly changed into his everyday pants while she was in the bathroom. Then pulled on one of his many other tunics. Once dressed, he quickly walked downstairs. The young elf tried to busy himself with preparing breakfast, hoping to distracting him from wandering thoughts. However, one slipped passed his barriers he was setting up in his mind and made a small smile tug at his lips: She looks so good in my tunic.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tori smiled in hopes to cover up her little moment. She didn't want to ruin the rest of his night by worrying about her. Then you'll stay the night here? she asked, half joking. She didn't want him to leave, but she couldn't keep him here. Not when he had family waiting for him at home. It's Just so sad that you have to leave.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* "So," Peter muttered after a minute of silence. He was getting far too uncomfortable for his liking, and he needed to have some kind of conversation going. "Do we have any other plans for today?" ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Hope turned and glanced at Lisa, waiting for a response. But, she knew that Lisa probably didn't want to do anything else that day. After all, the funeral itself had been tough on her. After only a moment of almost unbearable silence, Hope turned back to Peter and spoke up. "We can go for a walk or something if youd like." Hope suggested. She figured that by now Peter would be well enough to travel further.

{A boy and a girl then tbh xDDD And these two remind me a lot of this couple from one of my favourite animated series called Wakfu, which is originally in french but ANYWAYS. Theres four main characters and like pairs fall in love respectfully, and one pair is a female elf(I know I know shh) whose like really chill and mature and stuff and kind of like Lumi, and the boy is this like race that's kind of dumb and stuff so he's really childish and always hitting on her and AHHHH they end up, in an OVA, having 2 kids and getting married at the end after they save the world it reminds me so much of them just like omg here, I only thought of them being alike like not too long ago, maybe 2 days ago? xD} {Seriously homie if I had copies of the game I would give them to you cries} {YES i like this I like this.... > } {Aawh shoot ; ~ ; The brother should come and announce that the trial has been scheduled that day, and Loran's like 'But I never scheduled anything' and he's like 'I did' and Lumi's like freaking out, but she seems calm, but she's frekaing out xD}
It didn't take Lumi long to change into the leggings, but she had also gone into the bathroom to clean up from her crying, smacking her cheeks in front of the mirror and using Loran's weird contraption to get some water and splash her face mulitiple times. Her nerves were still on a high from telling him what had happened, and there was still this uneasiness that was settled in her chest, but other than that she was pretty relieved. She managed to brush out her hair, causing it to return to straight, and left it out today, falling down to her lower back. She was surprised how long her hair had been growing out, and maybe it had grown a little longer in the past bit?... Maybe the magic had some weird effects on her like that, or maybe she was just going mental.
She exited the bathroom a couple moments later, walking down the stairs and entering the kitchen, spotting Loran smiling about something. She herself smiled as well, before smoothly sliding up beside him and leaning back against the counter so she could see his face, "What are you smiling about?" she asked playfully, though she honestly just wanted to make conversation with him. Talk to him. Be around him. She just... Wanted to know more.

Peter smiled at her suggestion, nodding. "That sounds good. I don't know how far we might get, but got to start training for that marathon sooner or later," he replied. Though he was in a wheelchair that morning, the boy mainly used crutches whenever he got around the house. He figured they wouldn't be a problem on a walk if they didn't go too far.
Lisa was a little confused by his statement, but she figured it was something they had talked about earlier. So, instead of inquiring about the marathon, she simply said, "Be sure not to tire yourself out. And keep your phone on you. I'll be here if either of you need anything.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
(OMG! I watched only a few seconds of it, but I'm in love with it!!! IT'S SO CUTE! I'M GOING TO WATCH THAT SERIES NOW!) (Lol, it's okay. If and when I get them, I'll let you know.) (Consider it done! I was wondering how we would begin the trial, and you solved that problem for me.)
As if his thoughts had summoned her, there was Lumi, leaning against the counter and catching him smiling to himself. "Oh, nothing," he said quickly. "I was just... thinking how my room is going to look with all of your painting thrown everywhere." Smooth, that was convincing. His room was pretty bare besides the bed and dressers that held his clothes, so it would be interesting to see it transformed into an art room. That is, if she stayed long enough for that to happen. Quickly, he pushed that unpleasant thought aside. He didn't want to think about what would happen if Lumi decided to leave and return to her own home, or even a different human village. It made his heart ache a little just entertaining the thought.
Turning his attention back to making the food, he set to work frying a couple of duck eggs. They were larger than chicken eggs by a few centimeters in diameter, and the flavor was only mildly gamy. Other than that, there was no difference in the appearance of the food. "What meat do you want with this? Pork or deer?" he asked. Of course, the deer meat had recently been supplied by Baltore since Loran's last hunting trip ended badly. Well, it wasn't all bad. He made a new friend during that time. If only things weren't so difficult for her at the moment.

{Omg so I forgot what happens in the show and now I remember and brb as I currently soB MY EYES OUT PINPIN AHHHHHHH} {And I swear I did not copy them but she saves him once by jumping in the way and getting hit in the SHOUDLER OMG IT'S UNCANNY} {yeee homie jeez i wish they were two player} {AWESOME super hype now, I have a lot of good ideas at times so I can probably help figure things out LOL}
Lumi's eyes twinkled with excitement as he mentioned the art, suddenly remembering the pile she had left in the corner the night before. That was right! Loran had bought her some awesome stuff to use for painting. She definitely wanted to paint him something first, and then something for Baltore because, why not, and then do whatever the heck she wanted with the rest. But... What to paint for Loran without being too, well, obvious? Definitely something to do with fire, put a little something about elves in there or even their friendship... But even so, she knew delving into their relationship on canvas might reveal a little more than she wanted to. When she painted, she just kept painting. Inspiration came and flowed out easily like a waterfall as her brush stroked easily across the blank surface. She could only imagine what she could paint, and Loran asking her why and her little 'crush' being found out... Yup, fantastic. Great way to make her stay awkward, or not. But for now, she wouldn't cross that line, "Speaking of, I might start on something today. Just have to find the right inspiration."
Her eyes trailed to the egg he was making as he asked her about the meat, and it was almost as if a question mark appeared above her head, looking back at him with a semi-curious expression. Deer meat?... "I've never had deer before," she confessed, "but I'm definitely up for tasting it." she added, smiling at him before hopping up onto the counter to watch him from above, wishing she had her notebook to sketch a picture of Loran while she did so. He was just so... Handsome, in pretty much everything he did. Had she mentioned he had a really nice chest too? Caught her off guard, but was definitely... Pleasant, to say the least.

"Don't worry ma'am, we will." Hope assured Lisa. Hope had made surprising changed in her time living with the Thompsons. She had seemingly developed manners and was polite constantly. Anyone who had known her before would have been shocked at her transformation. She still had meetings with her Parole officer, and he was always commenting on her improvement and how proud he was of her.
"We can go as soon as we are finished eating if you'd like." Hope added, turning to Peter.

(I binged watched the first 6 episodes yesterday, and I'm completely in love with it! What's even better is that Wakfu is made by the company who made the movie Dofus, which me and my sister both watched earlier last year. I showed her Wakfu, and she loves it just as much as I do. ^^ And this might be a stupid question, but which one is Pinpin?) (lol, it's okay even if you were inspired by it. It made the scene cuter.) (That would be amazing!) (Haha, he will make an appearance as soon as the morning fluff as been played out!)
Loran smiled at the news she might start painting today. He was beginning to miss watching her as she concentrated on her work. It was too bad she would be able to continue her business here in the village. The other elves might not be impressed with her work like he is, which is a shame since Lumi was able to create such life like and detailed paintings with no magic to help. All of her paintings were proof of her raw talent she had refined over years of practice. That's a lot more than he could say for the artists of his village. "I may pop in to watch after a while," he muttered, turning to grab a new pan from where several hung on the wall by the hearth.
"Deer meat is almost like beef, except it's more leaner and has a wild flavor to it," the elf explained. He walked over to ice box he kept all the meat in. Opening the lid, he pulled out a wrapped bundle tied with twine. He untied the the binds as he brought it back to the skillet, selecting a few choice pieces of the deer to cook. He set the pan on a rack above the fire before returning the rest of the meat to the icebox. Of course, the ice box was of magic, so it was able to keep the meat longer than normal.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Lisa nodded to the girl. She had noticed her change in attitude the moment she agreed to let Hope stay with them while Peter was healing. She had dropped the "I don't care," act and was actually doing her best to be polite and considerate.
Peter nodded and took another bite of his food. He didn't want to rush in finishing his food. There was plenty of time to leave. So he ate normally so Hope would have time to eat as well.

{Oh yah! ANd Dofus is an mmorpg turn based game online as well~ I loved the Wakfu series honestly! And Pinpin is the french nickname for Sir Percedal, so Dally~ xD} {I WASN'T I JUST SAW IT WAS LIKE IT NOW AND omggg though Dally literally beat the crap out of said attacker omgg ahsjjdskmns it was epic} {Inquisitiion has a two player mode but it crap} {YASSS FLUFF FLUFF} {This is gonna be short because I changed the layout and now everything is WEIRD}
Lumi smiled softly at him as he mentioned about coming to watch her, which made her happy. Loran watching her always had made her nervous but also so confident at the same time. She'd never really had the opportunity to paint in front of someone or show anyone her talent while actually in the middle of it. Archer never wanted to see it, her parents... Well, that was impossible, so having him around was really nice. Plus, anything he said nice about her paintings meant like 10x more than some rando walking by and commenting on them.
She watched him get some meat from a box, looking puzzled as he pulled out some that was practically fresh, but he hadn't gone hunting since they had gone back so she was really confused. Besides, how could one even keep meat fresh without leaving it in a pantry or a store house in the cold? "I'm so confused right now." she muttered under her breath, looking over at Loran was a sheepish expression, watching the meat cook on the pan. That she knew all about, but this magic box that kept all the meat fresh? So. Weird.

(They're both games and I want to play them so badly! Ooooh, that makes sense. XD Yugo just calls him Grovy at the moment, so I didn't know that. XD ) (I can't wait to see that episode! X3 I bet it's so cute!) (Ah, that sticks. :/ Oh well.) (Lol, it's all good!)
Loran chuckled after taking a moment to figure out what she meant. "Baltore and magic," he responded, stepping away from the fire to stand by her. "Baltore brought some fresh meat while you sleeping off your injury. It's some of the game he brought back from our hunting trip. He took pity on me and shared his hunt. As for the ice box, it's got a spell on it to help keep the meat cool without needing to have ice or anything. To be honest, nearly everything here is magic aided. You'll get use to it eventually."
Crossing his arms over his chest, he leaned against the counter beside where she was perched, watching the fire as it cooked their breakfast. It was a comforting sight and sound, listening to the logs crackle and pop as the flames rose in the fireplace. Of course, he could have cast a spell that would create a fire that didn't need kindling, but he liked the sound of the wood burning and the smell of the smoke that help add flavor to the food.

{The turn based mmo is okay,you need membership to get far xc They have different names in the different versions so idk what his name is really D: I watched it in English personally, on netflix} {It's all the way in season 2!! It's only in season 2 were Evangeline and Percedal actually start showing their feelings, I mean there's moments in Season 1 but they fight a lot xD} {Yah you just do these random missions it's dumb, and you have set classes} {changed back because it was bad}
Lumi rolled her eyes at the mention of the other brother, smirking slightly. Of course half of it was Baltore's doing, but it was nice of the older elf to help him out in his time of need. Lumi still wasn't sure why Loran even crossed over to the human side in the first place, But whatever reason... I'm glad he did. She glanced over at the ice box again, curiousity dancing in her eyes as she searched for any notion that it was enchanted. Of course, there was nothing, and she gave up a couple seconds later, smiling down at Loran, "I don't think I'll ever get used to it, to be honest." she said with a small laugh. She did not grow up with magic, of course, so that was easy to understand. Everything was super easy over here... Well, it never would be for her, because she could never use magic, which was actually a sad thing for her, but she could live with it.
Things fell quiet, but it wasn't like an awkward kind of quiet. It was calming and comfortable quiet, the only sound coming from the fireplace as the fire rose, and the Lumi cast her ocean blue eyes over towards Loran, studying his side profile for a couple moments. Her lips turned up into a gentle smile, and she pulled her legs up and crawled over to sit behind him, slipping one down on either side and leaning over to wrap her arms loosely around his neck, setting her chin against the top of his head. Good thing he was tall, or she would've hurt her back doing this, "Elves have really long hair." she said quietly, studying his hair from where she was sitting, the small, gentle smile still on her face. This was probably forward, but in the quiet, peaceful moment... It just felt right.

Hope finished her food in silence, watching her plate mostly. She realized how relaxed she felt in this house and around the Thompson's, although she never really knew what to say or how to behave. It was all guess work for her.

(Welp, so much for me playing that. XD Ah, I see. I'm watching it in french, so his name is Grovy. That makes a lot of sense now, though. XD) (I love the fact that they fight a lot. It just makes them more precious. X3) (You're not given a lot of choice, are you? That sounds like it'd get old really fast.) (Lol, which layout did you try?)
"True, but you might be surprised. You may be the first one to find out it humans are capable of magic," Loran replied. The idea was a little far-fetched, but it hadn't been proven impossible. Not yet anyway. Yes, humans don't have a sense for magic the way elves did, but, then again, no human has ever tried their hand at spell casting before. Although, even if she could use magic, he had a feeling Lumi wouldn't rely upon it as much as he did. In fact, he made a mental note to try using his own magic less. It wouldn't hurt to try and do things the hard way every once in a while.
He was aware of her shifting her position, but before he could turn his head to look at her, Lumi was behind him, her arms loosely around his neck and chin on his head. His eyes widened a little in surprise, his shading a bit pink at the fact that she had moved to this new position on her own free will. As much as it surprised him, he found his heart skipping a beat and a small smile forming on his face. It was also a good things Lumi couldn't see his face. The temptation to reach up and take her hands in his was strong. Yet he didn't know if that would make her pull away or not, so he didn't move. For the moment at least.
"Not all of us have long hair," Loran replied. "Baltore keeps his cut short, like our mother's. He says it just gets in the way whenever he's hunting. I keep mine long because I think I look weird with short hair. I like the natural look. Most of the elders have long hair because they think it makes them look more elegant or sophisticated."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Peter finished about the same time she did. "Thanks, Mom," he said, still getting use to calling Lisa by her motherly title. He had no doubts this woman was his mother, but it was still a little weird when his memories of her were still in a haze. Standing up, he carefully picked up his trash.
"Peter, leave that. I'll get it," Lisa told him.
"It's fine, I can make it two feet to throw away my thrash," the boy reassured her. Then began to slowly hobble to the thrash can in the kitchen.

{I think the little dude {{I watched it like a year ago OKAY XD}} calls him Dally and maybe Evangelyne calls him Pinpin? Idk xD} {IT DOESAHHHH i was so obsessed with the ship when I watched it and now this just gives them even more WORTH} {I played it once and never played again LMAO} {the proboards ones, but I tend to like it when it'sbrighter, but I like how the screen is smushed slightly on this one}
The idea of trying out magic interested Lumi. She might give it a shot someday, maybe when her and Loran weren't dealing with the trial in the near future, but it would depend on how long she was going to be in the eleven territory. Her and Loran kept talking like she was going to be here for a long time, but the reality was that after the trial, she would probably be kicked out, or even worse. It wasn't really good, lying to themselves and each other, but... It was almost as if they both needed it after what they had gone through. But, if she ever did try something with magic, she would probably ask about water magic. It could help with painting, and could dowse out Loran's flames if he ever got too flame happy, but she highly doubted that she would ever be able to use it properly, or as well as an elf could.
When Loran started talking about hair, elves and hair, and his hair not being short because he thought he would look weird, it was almost as if a light bulb popped over Lumi head- Or maybe a fire ball, seeing as light bulbs weren't a thing, "Humans are quite the opposite," she began, moving to sit back and rolling up her sleeves slightly to grab the makeshift hair tight she had tied around her wrist, before grabbing Loran's hair, "the men just chop off all their hair, all the time. Very crudely too, so it's not very attractive," she continued, carefully making sure all of Lorans hair was in her hands, "sometimes you'll find a guy with long or nice hair, and he'll be some rich, stuck up snob, unlike woman, which are the opposite," she made sure Loran hair was as upright as it could be on top of his head, some little stray strands falling out, but she wasn't perfect, "if you're rich and a woman, you'll have this gorgeous, curly updo. But if your middle class or poor, like me, you'll either have short hair so it doesn't get in the way, or grow it out long to sell it off later for money," The last part could have been a joke, but Lumi wasn't joking, "I quite like my hair long, but you've seen I keep it up a lot when I paint or work, but that's because I usually end up getting paint in it one way or another," she said, wrapping the hair tie around Loran little silly bun on top of his head and tieing it tight, than leaning around the side to look at him from the front with a laugh, "you look silly." she teased, reaching up to push some stray strands upwards.

(That's the cutest thing ever. X3) (Becuase they literally start off as acquaintances, then turn into friends, then lovers, and now parents. *squeals* ) (Haha, I'll take your word for it that it's that bad.) (I have no idea if you're using the same layout as me, but I agree. I tried some of the others, but the default one that Roswell set for everyone once she smoothed out everything is the best one in my opinion. That may or may not have made any sense. XD) (Lol, Lumi, just follow Loran around with a bucket of water. That'll help keep his flames at bay. XD)
Loran sat there where she did whatever she was doing to his hair, a laugh escaping him. He could feel his hair being piled onto of his head and miraculously stayed in place. He tilted his head from side to side. As he did, the bun lazily shifted with his head. It was a wierd feeling. He was use to pulling his hair back into a ponytail when he needed it out of his way, but never in this new form Lumi had put it in.
"I feel silly as well," He commented, though his voice betrayed his amusement. He reached up to feel the bun and chuckled. "Did you just give me a bunny tail?" He asked. Of course, that was not an official name of any hairstyle. However, the small, round shape his hair had been put into reminded him of old illustrations from story books is mother would read to him and his siblings of bunny rabbits and their cotton ball tails.

{Sorry he calls him Grovy in the french version I guess, I still don't know xD} {I KNOW THEY'RE SO CUTE but for dally it was love at first sight and Evangelyne is like 'why are you hitting on me tsk'} {The current one? The mostdetailed one that's centered in the middle of the screen?} {BRUH that'd be too heavy for her xDD But at the same time she'd be like 'oh this bucket? this is to douse out my boyfriend when he gets too excited' xD}
Lumi laughed softly as she looked up at his bun, grinning, "I guess you could call it that." she said quietly, studying her work for a couple of moment before carefully taking the hair tie out of his hair, making sure his hair returned to the way it was before, than carefully grabbed all of her blonde hair, twisting it tight and then turning it around on top of her head. A lot of little loose strands fell out here and there, but it gave her kind of a messy look, that actually wasn't that bad for the fact she was wearing a tunic and leggings. She managed to get it to stay altogether, touching it gently with her two hands, than laughing, leaning over around his side so he could see, "Mines more of a... Gigantic ball of mess." she said, pretending to poof it up a little like she was a high class heiress, and then continuing back to play with his hair.
"I don't think you would look that bad with short hair." she said, pulling it up in a way that made it look like he didn't have all his hair, and then leaning forward to study it again, "And yup, I was right." she added with a grin. Loran would probably look good in any hair style, whether it be short, long, super long, a ponytail, whichever... She'd really like to see him wear it in a ponytail sometime though, it'd probably be really handsome.

{{ Jesse made the ugliest, grumpiest face he could muster as he slid into the car and buckled up. He was destined to be Lexi's first and only ugly passenger, purely just to annoy her. "I'm not pretty," he reminded her none too gently, arms crossed over his chest. "So you'll just have to accept and deal with my ugliness."

Auri grinned at Phalon through a wad of bloody, ruined tissues and started happily skipping-----and yes, he really did skip-----out the door. He loved going to the nurse's office. She was such a lovely woman and was always so kind to him. He didn't mind all the funny questions she asked him, since she seemed so friendly.
"So hello," he said to Phalon, sticking close to her as they walked, with no concern for personal space. "It's lovely to meet you. Your name is Phalon, yes? That's a lovely name. A bit odd, but beautiful nonetheless. I quite like it. Normal names are rather boring." }}
