Summary: Clara brings Darren by so that he can meet his undead double.
OOC!Psiren: *knocks on the door, leaning against the wall slightly, winded*
Darren: *standing next to her, also pretty winded but glad to be back here*
T!Ed: *upstairs putting out filled cups of tea on the table for all of them*
C!Envy: *curled in a chair at the table, perks up at the knocking* Finally! *gets up and heads for the stairs* I'll let them in.
T!Ed: ...Like you have a choice. *eyes the stairs with a faint grin*
C!Envy: *laughs* I could let you get some exercise... *throws a smirk over his shoulder as he goes*
OOC!Psiren: *making an effort to breathe through her nose, glaring good-naturedly at Darren* ...We're going to have to work on this elevator fear of yours.
Darren: *glares over his shoulder at the elevator doors, shaking his head* Bad, damhair.
C!Envy: *pads down the hall, trying not to look as edgy as he feels, and rejecting the impulse to just ignore it and pretend it was only a solicitor*
OOC!Psiren: *is rather amused* It's just a machine, I promise. They're quite harmless, and very convenient.
OOC!Psiren: *knocks again, slightly louder*
T!Ed: *sips some of his tea, nervous*
Darren: *bounces a little on the balls of his feet, sighing* But stairings work well, also.
C!Envy: *steels himself and opens the door, smiling stiffly*...Hello.
OOC!Psiren: *chuckles a little* Oh well, nothing wrong with getting a little exercise, I suppose.
OOC!Psiren: Ren! There you are. Um, Ren, this is Darren... Darren, Ren.
Darren: *smiles brightly and bows* Go mbeannaí Dia duit, Uachtaráin Uasail. *straightens, blinking* ...You are Ren?
C!Envy:*bows slightly, stiffly* Go mbeannaí Dia duit. Glac uaim,deimhne mo mhodha fhíormhóir duit.
C!Envy: *smiles a wavery smile at Clara* Good afternoon. Come in, please. Edward is making tea. *holds the door for them*
OOC!Psiren: *smiles back* Oh, lovely. I could do with something to drink. *enters, nodding thanks at Ren*
Darren: *brightens considerably at Ren greeting him in his own language but stays quiet out of politeness, waiting for Clara to enter first, but sneaking skeptical glaces at Ren*
C!Envy:*mutters as she walks by* Why did both you and Edward tell him he looks like me? *keeps smiling at Darren*
Darren: *watches them whisper, getting vaguely suspicious but entering after Clara with another little nod-bow to Ren*
OOC!Psiren: *raises her eyebrows at him* We thought he was you. Hardly our fault!
C!Envy:*sighs and leads them upstairs* Darren, you have met Edward already, is ea anois?
T!Ed: *peers over at the stairs at the sound of approaching footsteps and voices*
OOC!Psiren: *gives Ren a "have fun explaining that one" look, following him up the stairs*
Darren: *nods with a big smile* Yes! *remembers himself quickly* ...Yes, sir. *smiles an apology*
C!Envy: ...Please do not call me that. There is no need. *glares half-heartedly at Clara*
OOC!Psiren: *smile of innocence and pleasantness*
T!Ed: *plasters a grin on his face, trying not to look as down as he was earlier* Hey!
OOC!Psiren: Hello, Edward. You're looking better.
Darren: *grins, almost bouncing* Edward! Hello.
T!Ed: Doing as good as I can under the circumstances, I suppose. *shrugs before grinning back at Darren* Hello~
C!Envy: *tries not to glower, offering chairs to Clara and Darren* Edward, tea? *pleading glance*
Darren: *waits politely for Clara to sit*
T!Ed: *gestures to the tea already sitting out on the tables* Help yourselves.
OOC!Psiren: *sits with a sigh, pulling a cup of tea towards herself* Thank you, Edward, for the tea. I'm really thirsty. Darren insisted on taking the stairs.
T!Ed: Oh, I don't blame him. *smirks, making the devil face*
C!Envy: *sinks into his chair, pulling cups toward himself and filling them with tea, pushing one toward both Clara and Darren* Milk and sugar? Bainne agus siúcra?
OOC!Psiren: Oh, pass me the milk, please.
Darren: *shakes his head, taking his tea* No, thank you, s- ...No, thank you.
C!Envy: *passes the milk, trying to ignore Darren and the growing morbid fascination that follows him* Sure. *smirks slightly* He did what? Oh, goodness.
OOC!Psiren: ...I don't think I realized quite how high up your apartment is before. *pours some milk into her tea, taking a sip*
Darren: *mutters under his breath* Diabhal meaisín.
T!Ed: *snickers faintly*
C!Envy: *snorts some tea* ... Cad é sin? *tries not to laugh in spite of himself*
Darren: *grumbles into his tea in Kaelach about possessed buildings*
T!Ed: *sips at his tea* So... How was your trip here? Aside from the stairs, I mean.
OOC!Psiren: Oh goodness. We saw a train.
C!Envy: *smiles a bit* We wondered what was taking you.
OOC!Psiren: Yes, well, there you go. Sorry if we kept you waiting.
C!Envy: No, it was fine. Edward got to explain a few things to me. *turns to Darren, speaking rapidly in Kaelach*
Darren: *looks at him wide-eyed a moment, surprised at being addressed like this, and sets down his tea before replying, sounding close to frenzied*
T!Ed: ... *just drinks his tea and tries not to look too out of place*
C!Envy:*replies, nodding a few times and frowning into his tea before speaking in Amestrian again* He says his father was trying to have him tutored in alchemy and something went wrong. What he's describing sounds like an earthquake.
C!Envy: I am not sure, but anyway, he says everything went black and he opened his eyes and he was standing in the field in the park. I think he was only there about forty minutes or so before Edward found him.
OOC!Psiren: *blinks, wide-eyed* Goodness! An earthquake? I'd gathered there was some sort of explosion....
Darren: *bites his lip, debating rudeness a few moments before speaking again in Kaelach, haltingly, glancing at Clara and mentioning both her and Edward's names a few times*
C!Envy: No, I think the earthquake. Why? *sighs, lapsing back into Kaelach, speaking with long pauses and rubbing his temples*
OOC!Psiren: Oh no, nothing, I'm just... impressed, I guess. That's quite a "something went wrong." *sips her tea*
Darren: *frowns, drawing into himself slightly as Ren speaks, finally taking a deep breath* Taispeáin.
C!Envy: *frowns, glancing between Ed and Clara edgily*
T!Ed: *raises his eyebrows, moving to take Ren's hand underneath the table, trying to be comforting*
Darren: *looking pointedly at Ren as iif waiting for something*
OOC!Psiren: *glancing from Ren to Darren and back again, blinking*
C!Envy:*brushes fingers against Ed's hand briefly before sighing and changing into Colin*
Darren: *jumps, knocking over his chair and backing up against the wall, eyes wide*
T!Ed: *winces faintly, frowning, and squeezes his hand*
OOC!Psiren: *sets down her tea quickly* Whoa! Oh dear... Darren, it's okay, really....
C!Envy: *expressionless, gently but firmly sets Edward's hand back in his own lap, letting go* I do not lie.
T!Ed: *face falls slightly and twists the hem of his shirt, looking away*
OOC!Psiren: *presses her lips together, frowning, glancing between them again*
Darren: *backed up against the kitchen wall and sucking on his lower lip, expression going from shock to speculation, relaxing a bit and glancing questioningly at Edward* ...Edward said you are not monster. Then what?
C!Envy: *in the middle of offering Edward a brief glance of apology, raising an eyebrow* You told him what?
T!Ed: He is not a monster. *gives Darren a reassuring look, then shrugs* I told him about Gluttony and some of the other homunculi.
C!Envy: And now he thinks I am not one?
T!Ed: I never said you weren't a homunculus. I just said you weren't a monster.
OOC!Psiren: *chews on her lip a little, listening and watching*
C!Envy: I don't think he understood... *looks back at Darren, speaking in Kaelach again and choosing words carefully*
Darren: *still biting his lip but nodding slowly, even if he doesn't look too trusting* You are sin thing, then?
C!Envy: Yes. *says a few more things in Kaelach before looking at Clara and Ed* ...I told him about this summer, I told him I looked like this when I was a human and can shapeshift, obviously, so you two thought he was me under alias.
Darren: *hmphs, sitting down again, but giving Ren wide berth* ...Can some understand you.
C!Envy: *sighs* My apologies. Your Amestrian is very good.
T!Ed: And it'll be better soon. *grins faintly at Darren*
Darren: *smiles back, having a sip of tea* Will try, yes.
C!Envy: Well, we cannot be sure how long he will stay...
OOC!Psiren: *relaxes a little, sipping at her tea again*
Darren: *hmphs into his tea* Do not want to.
C!Envy: *lonnnnnnnng sigh*
T!Ed: ...Not want to leave or stay?
OOC!Psiren: ...Well, it isn't as if it's something we can control, anyhow. Darren is here until he's not.
Darren: *to Ed* Leave. I said earlier, Da will be... bad? Not okay I am gone. And girl.
T!Ed: Well I don't mind if you stay, if that's any consolation... *glances at Ren nervously*
C!Envy: *to Clara* I know. But any attachments will be detrimental to... everything. *looks quickly at Darren* ...Girl?
C!Envy: Edward... *gives him a "please don't do this to me" look*
T!Ed: *ducks his head, frowning deeply and mumbling an apology*
Darren: Consolation? *blinks at Ed over his tea, mostly ignoring Ren out of nerves*
OOC!Psiren: *blinks, wondering what in the world is going on*
OOC!Psiren: Um... it means he's trying to make you feel better?
Darren: Oh! *smiles at Ed* Thank you.
C!Envy: *has a thought which very much resembles a facepalm and changes back to himself, drinking some tea*
Darren: *relaxes visably*
T!Ed: Yeah, no problem. *smiles a little*
C!Envy: *forces a small smile, speaking in Kaelach to Darren*
Darren: *listens before breaking into a smile, looking at Clara* I am living with you?
OOC!Psiren: *smiles* If you would like to, yes. I have a couple of empty rooms.
Darren: *gets most of that, generally the "yes" part* Thank you! I will give assets some way.
T!Ed: ... *can't help it and cracks up at the assets part*
OOC!Psiren: *blinks* ...Assets?
T!Ed: I-I told him Ren has nice assets. Not just money~ *giggling, glancing at Ren*
OOC!Psiren: *covers her eyes*
C!Envy: Edward! *can't decide between laughing and killing him, opts for nervous smiling* He means airgead, Darren. Airgead is called money.
T!Ed: I thought it was funny~
Darren: *blinks a few times before blushing like mad*
C!Envy: *rolls his eyes at Ed* You would... And you are paying for it later. *quirks a little mock-threatening smile*
T!Ed: *smiles smugly, pleased with himself*
OOC!Psiren: *shakes her head a little, then pauses* ...Oh! And no no no Darren, no money. I won't take money for that.
Darren: *frowns* But I am inter- inter... intering? *speaks in Kaelach to Ren, blushing*
C!Envy: Interrupting. No, you mean intruding. Cur isteach ar is intruding. *launches into Kaelach again to explain Clara's house situation*
Darren: *nods a few times* I will work for house to stay, then? *smiles hopefully at Clara*
OOC!Psiren: *smiles back, nodding* Your help would be appreciated, thank you.
Darren: ...Appersheeted?
C!Envy: Appreciated. Aige. *ARGH*
OOC!Psiren: *laughs a little* Yes, what he said.
Darren: *nods some more, grinning* Okay. Will try to be good help.
Darren: *conveniently neglecting to mention the fact that he's never done a day's hard labor in his life*
OOC!Psiren: Thank you Darren.
Darren: You are welcome. *finishes his tea*
C!Envy: Well, it was very nice meeting you, perhaps, Clara, you should take him back and show him his rooms. *so totally not a question*
Darren: *looks nervously down at his hands*
T!Ed: *frowns slightly*
OOC!Psiren: *finishes her tea, setting the cup down and raising her eyebrows* Um, sure. Unless you have any more questions, Darren, while we've got Ren here to translate? *glances over at Darren*
Darren: Questions... *fidgets slightly, thinking* Too much. Is too strange here... *short, nervous laugh* Too much asking. *glances at Ren* May I... think?
C!Envy: And talk to me later?
Darren: *nods* I am sorry to be a trouble.
C!Envy: *shakes his head* You are... not. *winces internally at the pause* Please let me help however I can. *actually manages a real smile this time*
Darren: *sort of surprised, smiles back* Is nice to have other cainteoir Gaeilge here. Understand me.
C!Envy: *laughs quietly* I have not heard that language in... years. It is nice to speak it again.
OOC!Psiren: *smiles a little*
Darren: *feeling a bit bolder now, snickering* Your... your- *can't remember word* blas. Is not strong.
C!Envy: *rolls his eyes with a chuckle* Accent. And no, I have made myself speak... differently. Useful.
Darren: ...Why? *looking at him as if he's crazy for doing this*
C!Envy: Useful. *sips his tea pointedly*
Darren: *sighs almost petulantly, sitting back in his chair*
OOC!Psiren: *chuckles a little* Ren's a lot easier to understand than you are, I'm afraid.
C!Envy: Mar gheall ar, tá deas orm. *smirks at her teasingly*
Darren: *bursts into barely-controlled laughter*
T!Ed: *blinks* Er..?
OOC!Psiren: .........Ren, what did you say about me? *preemptive glare*
Darren: *still giggling, speaking to Clara* He said, because he is nice. Makes easier because he is nice.
C!Envy: *smiles innocently*
OOC!Psiren: ..........Mmhmm.
C!Envy: *smiles again, shrugging and letting his voice revert back to his real accent* It is true. I do not have to sound so civilised. *wondering how much of that was actually understandable*
OOC!Psiren: ...Eh?
C!Envy: *goes back to his normal, much less thick accent* I said I do not always have to sound so civilised.
Darren: *grins amusedly*
OOC!Psiren: *laughs* ...That was Amestrian?
C!Envy: *raises an eyebrow* It sounded that strange?
T!Ed: It was very... thick.
C!Envy: *laughs, really self conscious now, glancing at the cabinets behind Ed* Pretend I never said anything...
T!Ed: *smiles sweetly* ...II'll tell you what I think later.
C!Envy: *blushes and hates himself for it* Eh...
OOC!Psiren: I think it's a lovely accent, though I've never heard anything quite like it. The language, too. What's it called again?
Darren: .........................*more laughter that sounds mysteriously like the morning's "you married a man" laugh, mostly directed in Ed's direction*
T!Ed: *glares half-heartedly, grinning* Fuck you~
OOC!Psiren: EDWARD!
T!Ed: What? *blinks*
OOC!Psiren: *glare* Language.
T!Ed: He knows what it means, it's okay!
C!Envy: *rolls his eyes at Darren* Kaelach. *making sure Darren is amply occupied with laughter and Edward of the Eloquent Vocabulary before muttering to Clara*I will explain more later. *eyes widen* Edward! Nnngh... *facepalm*
OOC!Psiren: .......................
Darren: *shrugs, getting the gist of the outburst* Is alright. I know.
T!Ed: What? It is okay! He really does know what it means.
T!Ed: See, told you! *sticks his tongue out*
OOC!Psiren: *facepalms* ...That doesn't mean I want to hear you say it!
C!Envy: And try to remember that he is probably not used to such vulgarity? Almost eight-hundred years ago- *looks quickly at Darren, shutting up quickly*
Darren: *sighs, rolling his eyes and looking uncannily like Ren doing it, even without the similar looks* It is later here. I know. I am not a child.
T!Ed: Okay fine, I won't say it... *grumbles before muttering with a faint grin* Damnu wir. *horribly. butchered. accent*
Darren: ...*snickering, making a face at Ed* You are very bad.
OOC!Psiren: ...Don't think I don't know you're swearing, even if I don't actually know what you're saying. *glareglare*
T!Ed: ...I'll get it sooner or later. *smiles sweetly at Clara*
OOC!Psiren: *glareglareglare*
C!Envy: Edward! ...Darren! *complete shock*
T!Ed: *cracking up so bad*
OOC!Psiren: ...I don't think it's very funny, Edward.
C!Envy: *in Kaelach to Darren* ...He doesn't need to know how to curse in more languages, you know. How were you not flogged to death for even knowing such things?!
T!Ed: I-I do..~ *gasping between laughter*
OOC!Psiren: *coldly* Obviously. *sniffs, looking away*
Darren: *also in Kaelach, with a giant grin* He is your husband, you should keep better control over him. *smirks over in Edward's direction, trying not to burst into more laughter* Besides, I do not say such things in front of Da.
C!Envy: *freezes up at the last word, frowning slightly and switching back to Amestrian* My husband is hardly... controllable.
T!Ed: Damn -- I'm sorry, darn *grin in Clara's direction* right~
OOC!Psiren: *not looking at or speaking to him*
C!Envy: *looks between the two of them warily*
Darren: *follows his glance, frowning and asking in Kaelach* Are they often like this?
T!Ed: *smiles a little smugly to himself*
C!Envy: *also in Kaelach* Oh, yes. Get used to it. If you would like to avoid a confrontation, you may want to claim that you are tired and would like to retire. Ask her to let you use Colin's clothes. I left them there.
Darren: *takes all of this in, smirking conspiritorially* Clara, shall we go to home, if it please you?
OOC!Psiren: Yes, I think we shall. Ren, if you'll excuse us? *standing*
C!Envy: *smiles dutifully, rising as she does* Of course. Darren, and Clara too, as a matter of fact, please do not hesitate to call for any reason. I will be glad to translate or provide whatever aid I can.
T!Ed: *grins at Darren* And you're always welcome to stop by.
Darren: *grins back* Yes! Thank you, I shall. I will see you many often?
T!Ed: Of course~
OOC!Psiren: *pointedly ignoring Edward*
T!Ed: *pointedly ignoring Clara back~*
Darren: Thank you, Edward. *standing and moving toward the stairs*
OOC!Psiren: See you later, Ren. Thank you, I will call if I need anything. *following after Darren*
Darren: *waits politely for Clara to go first*
C!Envy: Of course. Shall I see you out?
OOC!Psiren: Um... if you'd like. *has a thought* ...Darren... I don't suppose you'd be willing to get in a car? ...It's a very long walk.
Darren: *blank look* What?
C!Envy: *long sigh, lapsing into Kaelach to explain*
T!Ed: Car. One of those horseless carriages. Like we saw when you first came here?
Darren: ...There are no carriages here?
T!Ed: *shakes his head*
Darren: Long walk?
OOC!Psiren: ...Very, I'm afraid.
C!Envy: *rubs at his temples, leaning against the furthest wall from Darren*
Darren: *frowns before nodding resolutely* ...Will be okay.
OOC!Psiren: Okay... in a car? *shoots an alarmed glance at Ren*
Darren: *shrugs nervously* ...Yes.
C!Envy: *totally oblivious*
OOC!Psiren: ...I'll ask the cabbie to drive slowly. Ren, I'm borrowing your phone.
C!Envy: *nods, eyes closed*
OOC!Psiren: *glances from Ren to Darren* ...We'll see ourselves out. Come with me, Darren. *heads for the downstairs phone*
T!Ed: Take care... *waves after them*
C!Envy: Are you sure? Do you have fare for the cab? *drops the hand from his forehead, still leaning against the wall tiredly*
Darren: *follows close to Clara, really not wanting to face this mythical Car thing*
Darren: Taking care!
OOC!Psiren: *over her shoulder* We'll be fine, Ren, don't worry about it. I'll talk to you later.
C!Envy: Alright, have a safe trip home.
OOC!Psiren: *calls a cab, then heads for the door*
Darren: *follows close at her heels, politely silent*
C!Envy: *sags down the wall a little when he hears the door shut, letting out a breath*
T!Ed: *rolls over next to him carefully* You okay..?
C!Envy: *nods silently, eyes closed* Mmhm. *wry ghost of a smile* He is definitely me. I get a splitting headache being so near to him.
T!Ed: *bites his lip* Because of his bones? Er, your bones?
C!Envy: *nods* It is nothing like the normal reaction to the ones I have already been ressurrected from, but they are close enough to let me feel it.
T!Ed: *rests a hand on his shoulder, squeezing gently* You want to get some rest? Is there anything I can do?
C!Envy: Stones. *gets up off the floor, wandering in the direction of the bedroom*

OOC!Psiren: *presses her lips together, frowning, glancing between them again*
Darren: *backed up against the kitchen wall and sucking on his lower lip, expression going from shock to speculation, relaxing a bit and glancing questioningly at Edward* ...Edward said you are not monster. Then what?
C!Envy: *in the middle of offering Edward a brief glance of apology, raising an eyebrow* You told him what?
T!Ed: He is not a monster. *gives Darren a reassuring look, then shrugs* I told him about Gluttony and some of the other homunculi.
C!Envy: And now he thinks I am not one?
T!Ed: I never said you weren't a homunculus. I just said you weren't a monster.
OOC!Psiren: *chews on her lip a little, listening and watching*
C!Envy: I don't think he understood... *looks back at Darren, speaking in Kaelach again and choosing words carefully*
Darren: *still biting his lip but nodding slowly, even if he doesn't look too trusting* You are sin thing, then?
C!Envy: Yes. *says a few more things in Kaelach before looking at Clara and Ed* ...I told him about this summer, I told him I looked like this when I was a human and can shapeshift, obviously, so you two thought he was me under alias.
Darren: *hmphs, sitting down again, but giving Ren wide berth* ...Can some understand you.
C!Envy: *sighs* My apologies. Your Amestrian is very good.
T!Ed: And it'll be better soon. *grins faintly at Darren*
Darren: *smiles back, having a sip of tea* Will try, yes.
C!Envy: Well, we cannot be sure how long he will stay...
OOC!Psiren: *relaxes a little, sipping at her tea again*
Darren: *hmphs into his tea* Do not want to.
C!Envy: *lonnnnnnnng sigh*
T!Ed: ...Not want to leave or stay?
OOC!Psiren: ...Well, it isn't as if it's something we can control, anyhow. Darren is here until he's not.
Darren: *to Ed* Leave. I said earlier, Da will be... bad? Not okay I am gone. And girl.
T!Ed: Well I don't mind if you stay, if that's any consolation... *glances at Ren nervously*
C!Envy: *to Clara* I know. But any attachments will be detrimental to... everything. *looks quickly at Darren* ...Girl?
C!Envy: Edward... *gives him a "please don't do this to me" look*
T!Ed: *ducks his head, frowning deeply and mumbling an apology*
Darren: Consolation? *blinks at Ed over his tea, mostly ignoring Ren out of nerves*
OOC!Psiren: *blinks, wondering what in the world is going on*
OOC!Psiren: Um... it means he's trying to make you feel better?
Darren: Oh! *smiles at Ed* Thank you.
C!Envy: *has a thought which very much resembles a facepalm and changes back to himself, drinking some tea*
Darren: *relaxes visably*
T!Ed: Yeah, no problem. *smiles a little*
C!Envy: *forces a small smile, speaking in Kaelach to Darren*
Darren: *listens before breaking into a smile, looking at Clara* I am living with you?
OOC!Psiren: *smiles* If you would like to, yes. I have a couple of empty rooms.
Darren: *gets most of that, generally the "yes" part* Thank you! I will give assets some way.
T!Ed: ... *can't help it and cracks up at the assets part*
OOC!Psiren: *blinks* ...Assets?
T!Ed: I-I told him Ren has nice assets. Not just money~ *giggling, glancing at Ren*
OOC!Psiren: *covers her eyes*
C!Envy: Edward! *can't decide between laughing and killing him, opts for nervous smiling* He means airgead, Darren. Airgead is called money.
T!Ed: I thought it was funny~
Darren: *blinks a few times before blushing like mad*
C!Envy: *rolls his eyes at Ed* You would... And you are paying for it later. *quirks a little mock-threatening smile*
T!Ed: *smiles smugly, pleased with himself*
OOC!Psiren: *shakes her head a little, then pauses* ...Oh! And no no no Darren, no money. I won't take money for that.
Darren: *frowns* But I am inter- inter... intering? *speaks in Kaelach to Ren, blushing*
C!Envy: Interrupting. No, you mean intruding. Cur isteach ar is intruding. *launches into Kaelach again to explain Clara's house situation*
Darren: *nods a few times* I will work for house to stay, then? *smiles hopefully at Clara*
OOC!Psiren: *smiles back, nodding* Your help would be appreciated, thank you.
Darren: ...Appersheeted?
C!Envy: Appreciated. Aige. *ARGH*
OOC!Psiren: *laughs a little* Yes, what he said.
Darren: *nods some more, grinning* Okay. Will try to be good help.
Darren: *conveniently neglecting to mention the fact that he's never done a day's hard labor in his life*
OOC!Psiren: Thank you Darren.
Darren: You are welcome. *finishes his tea*
C!Envy: Well, it was very nice meeting you, perhaps, Clara, you should take him back and show him his rooms. *so totally not a question*
Darren: *looks nervously down at his hands*
T!Ed: *frowns slightly*
OOC!Psiren: *finishes her tea, setting the cup down and raising her eyebrows* Um, sure. Unless you have any more questions, Darren, while we've got Ren here to translate? *glances over at Darren*
Darren: Questions... *fidgets slightly, thinking* Too much. Is too strange here... *short, nervous laugh* Too much asking. *glances at Ren* May I... think?
C!Envy: And talk to me later?
Darren: *nods* I am sorry to be a trouble.
C!Envy: *shakes his head* You are... not. *winces internally at the pause* Please let me help however I can. *actually manages a real smile this time*
Darren: *sort of surprised, smiles back* Is nice to have other cainteoir Gaeilge here. Understand me.
C!Envy: *laughs quietly* I have not heard that language in... years. It is nice to speak it again.
OOC!Psiren: *smiles a little*
Darren: *feeling a bit bolder now, snickering* Your... your- *can't remember word* blas. Is not strong.
C!Envy: *rolls his eyes with a chuckle* Accent. And no, I have made myself speak... differently. Useful.
Darren: ...Why? *looking at him as if he's crazy for doing this*
C!Envy: Useful. *sips his tea pointedly*
Darren: *sighs almost petulantly, sitting back in his chair*
OOC!Psiren: *chuckles a little* Ren's a lot easier to understand than you are, I'm afraid.
C!Envy: Mar gheall ar, tá deas orm. *smirks at her teasingly*
Darren: *bursts into barely-controlled laughter*
T!Ed: *blinks* Er..?
OOC!Psiren: .........Ren, what did you say about me? *preemptive glare*
Darren: *still giggling, speaking to Clara* He said, because he is nice. Makes easier because he is nice.
C!Envy: *smiles innocently*
OOC!Psiren: ..........Mmhmm.
C!Envy: *smiles again, shrugging and letting his voice revert back to his real accent* It is true. I do not have to sound so civilised. *wondering how much of that was actually understandable*
OOC!Psiren: ...Eh?
C!Envy: *goes back to his normal, much less thick accent* I said I do not always have to sound so civilised.
Darren: *grins amusedly*
OOC!Psiren: *laughs* ...That was Amestrian?
C!Envy: *raises an eyebrow* It sounded that strange?
T!Ed: It was very... thick.
C!Envy: *laughs, really self conscious now, glancing at the cabinets behind Ed* Pretend I never said anything...
T!Ed: *smiles sweetly* ...II'll tell you what I think later.
C!Envy: *blushes and hates himself for it* Eh...
OOC!Psiren: I think it's a lovely accent, though I've never heard anything quite like it. The language, too. What's it called again?
Darren: .........................*more laughter that sounds mysteriously like the morning's "you married a man" laugh, mostly directed in Ed's direction*
T!Ed: *glares half-heartedly, grinning* Fuck you~
OOC!Psiren: EDWARD!
T!Ed: What? *blinks*
OOC!Psiren: *glare* Language.
T!Ed: He knows what it means, it's okay!
C!Envy: *rolls his eyes at Darren* Kaelach. *making sure Darren is amply occupied with laughter and Edward of the Eloquent Vocabulary before muttering to Clara*I will explain more later. *eyes widen* Edward! Nnngh... *facepalm*
OOC!Psiren: .......................
Darren: *shrugs, getting the gist of the outburst* Is alright. I know.
T!Ed: What? It is okay! He really does know what it means.
T!Ed: See, told you! *sticks his tongue out*
OOC!Psiren: *facepalms* ...That doesn't mean I want to hear you say it!
C!Envy: And try to remember that he is probably not used to such vulgarity? Almost eight-hundred years ago- *looks quickly at Darren, shutting up quickly*
Darren: *sighs, rolling his eyes and looking uncannily like Ren doing it, even without the similar looks* It is later here. I know. I am not a child.
T!Ed: Okay fine, I won't say it... *grumbles before muttering with a faint grin* Damnu wir. *horribly. butchered. accent*
Darren: ...*snickering, making a face at Ed* You are very bad.
OOC!Psiren: ...Don't think I don't know you're swearing, even if I don't actually know what you're saying. *glareglare*
T!Ed: ...I'll get it sooner or later. *smiles sweetly at Clara*
OOC!Psiren: *glareglareglare*
C!Envy: Edward! ...Darren! *complete shock*
T!Ed: *cracking up so bad*
OOC!Psiren: ...I don't think it's very funny, Edward.
C!Envy: *in Kaelach to Darren* ...He doesn't need to know how to curse in more languages, you know. How were you not flogged to death for even knowing such things?!
T!Ed: I-I do..~ *gasping between laughter*
OOC!Psiren: *coldly* Obviously. *sniffs, looking away*
Darren: *also in Kaelach, with a giant grin* He is your husband, you should keep better control over him. *smirks over in Edward's direction, trying not to burst into more laughter* Besides, I do not say such things in front of Da.
C!Envy: *freezes up at the last word, frowning slightly and switching back to Amestrian* My husband is hardly... controllable.
T!Ed: Damn -- I'm sorry, darn *grin in Clara's direction* right~
OOC!Psiren: *not looking at or speaking to him*
C!Envy: *looks between the two of them warily*
Darren: *follows his glance, frowning and asking in Kaelach* Are they often like this?
T!Ed: *smiles a little smugly to himself*
C!Envy: *also in Kaelach* Oh, yes. Get used to it. If you would like to avoid a confrontation, you may want to claim that you are tired and would like to retire. Ask her to let you use Colin's clothes. I left them there.
Darren: *takes all of this in, smirking conspiritorially* Clara, shall we go to home, if it please you?
OOC!Psiren: Yes, I think we shall. Ren, if you'll excuse us? *standing*
C!Envy: *smiles dutifully, rising as she does* Of course. Darren, and Clara too, as a matter of fact, please do not hesitate to call for any reason. I will be glad to translate or provide whatever aid I can.
T!Ed: *grins at Darren* And you're always welcome to stop by.
Darren: *grins back* Yes! Thank you, I shall. I will see you many often?
T!Ed: Of course~
OOC!Psiren: *pointedly ignoring Edward*
T!Ed: *pointedly ignoring Clara back~*
Darren: Thank you, Edward. *standing and moving toward the stairs*
OOC!Psiren: See you later, Ren. Thank you, I will call if I need anything. *following after Darren*
Darren: *waits politely for Clara to go first*
C!Envy: Of course. Shall I see you out?
OOC!Psiren: Um... if you'd like. *has a thought* ...Darren... I don't suppose you'd be willing to get in a car? ...It's a very long walk.
Darren: *blank look* What?
C!Envy: *long sigh, lapsing into Kaelach to explain*
T!Ed: Car. One of those horseless carriages. Like we saw when you first came here?
Darren: ...There are no carriages here?
T!Ed: *shakes his head*
Darren: Long walk?
OOC!Psiren: ...Very, I'm afraid.
C!Envy: *rubs at his temples, leaning against the furthest wall from Darren*
Darren: *frowns before nodding resolutely* ...Will be okay.
OOC!Psiren: Okay... in a car? *shoots an alarmed glance at Ren*
Darren: *shrugs nervously* ...Yes.
C!Envy: *totally oblivious*
OOC!Psiren: ...I'll ask the cabbie to drive slowly. Ren, I'm borrowing your phone.
C!Envy: *nods, eyes closed*
OOC!Psiren: *glances from Ren to Darren* ...We'll see ourselves out. Come with me, Darren. *heads for the downstairs phone*
T!Ed: Take care... *waves after them*
C!Envy: Are you sure? Do you have fare for the cab? *drops the hand from his forehead, still leaning against the wall tiredly*
Darren: *follows close to Clara, really not wanting to face this mythical Car thing*
Darren: Taking care!
OOC!Psiren: *over her shoulder* We'll be fine, Ren, don't worry about it. I'll talk to you later.
C!Envy: Alright, have a safe trip home.
OOC!Psiren: *calls a cab, then heads for the door*
Darren: *follows close at her heels, politely silent*
C!Envy: *sags down the wall a little when he hears the door shut, letting out a breath*
T!Ed: *rolls over next to him carefully* You okay..?
C!Envy: *nods silently, eyes closed* Mmhm. *wry ghost of a smile* He is definitely me. I get a splitting headache being so near to him.
T!Ed: *bites his lip* Because of his bones? Er, your bones?
C!Envy: *nods* It is nothing like the normal reaction to the ones I have already been ressurrected from, but they are close enough to let me feel it.
T!Ed: *rests a hand on his shoulder, squeezing gently* You want to get some rest? Is there anything I can do?
C!Envy: Stones. *gets up off the floor, wandering in the direction of the bedroom*
