Tesshu scratched his head, then his writing, over and over again. "No no no this is stupid. AUGH!" He cried out in frustration from his room.
Rikimaru heard him and peeked in, spotting his younger brother sitting amidst scattered balls o crumpled paper. "Uh...you ok Tesshu?"
"No...Riki how did you do it so easily? I can't even think straight.." Tesshu babbled as he flung the paper pad into the air.
"Do what..." He started to ask as he glanced in a crumpled paper. "OH...."
"Yea...'oh'..." Tesshu responded his a sigh of exasperation. "I can't do it. Forget it. I quit."
"I don't think you can Tesshu. Come on now." He said as he dragged his brother into the elder angels bedroom. "Dear, Tesshu needs a word with you..."

Zephyr winced as the scream of frustration. He looked out the window of his room above the shop, peering at the tavern across the street. "What in the world..." he mumbled, putting down the tools he was holding to go downstairs. He tossed on his jerkin, and walked out of the store, checking on what the noise was. Someone might have been wounded.

Dark looks up from where she was rocking Tai. "What is it, dear?" She stops when she sees Tesshu's face. "Tesshu, are you all right? You look so pale."

Thistle looked up immediately, tuned into the distressed being, and forgot about finishing the story she was telling Tai. "Yes what's wrong Tesshy-weshy? You can tell Ol' Thistle all about it."

Aegis walked along the cobblestone path outside the tavern, throwing a stick occasionally to entertain Saber. Once he heard the scream however, the playful look on his face left him. Saber immediately sensed what was happening in his master's head, and dutifully sat down and wagged his tail. Aegis managed to smile at the wolf, it was good to know he had a companion beside him. "Let's go investigate!" Before Aegis could finish his sentence, Saber was far ahead, determined to win the race to the tavern. Aegis smiled once more, "Cheater!"
----------------------------------------------
Raiku sat upon a bench in the tavern, waiting for the scene to unfold.

Dark surveyed her brother-in-law's face for a moment more, then she turned to Thistle. "Hey, Thistle, would you mind telling Tai the rest of your story while I go out for a moment? I will be right back." Dark gently cuddled her little boy, then set him down on the bed with a motherly coo. She then ushered Tesshu and Rikimaru out, leaving "Auntie Thistle" alone with Tai. She led them to an empty room and then turned to the two winged men. "Now then, what is the matter?"

Thistle saw that she didnt relly have a choice in the matter so she looked at Tai. "Well now that Mommy is gone Auntie Thistle can tell you more interesting stories..."

Vincent appeared from a shadow, smiled slightly and sat there, staring at Thistle. "I think that's not the best idea Misstress Thistle."
Riki nudged his brother who jus scratched his arm. "Um...it's nothing..." There was more nudging from Riki. "Uh...how do you make you pie so delicious?" Riki slapped Tesshu on the back of his head. "Ok ok...ugh...Dark...I want to propose to Chyenne...but...augh this is stupid."
"He doesn't know how and wants advice. Taa Daa." Rikimaru finished.

Dark smiled knowingly, her piercing blue eyes sparkling mischieviously. "Ah. I see. Well, dear," the sorceress said, turning to her husband. "Why don't you remind him how you proposed to me? The Talonjay Hotel ball... I remember Chyenne looking sideways at you, Tesshu. I also believe that was the first day she'd ever met you."

"What do you mean Vincent? I know you like my stories too." Thistle said persuasively while she settled next to Tai's head.

"No...I think many of those stories shold remain locked away in your mind Misstress." Vincent said as he shook his head.
"Well...planning was involved. I know how much Dark loved certain things, masquerades was one. So I planned a ball and with a flare of drama, you remember the lights that 'accidently' went off, proposed with few peole seeing, adding a touch of mystery to the night. I must say I'm proud of the results." He said with a wink.
"Yea...I remember seeing her for the first time there. But she's not like you Dark. She's...I don't know how to explain it. More...free spirited? She has no true ties to what she likes...more like her likes and dislikes are tied by strands of wind, shifting and changing all the time. Ah...what am I babbling about now..." Tesshu said with a frustratede sigh as he plopped onto the floor.

Dark laughs her shimmering laugh and hugs her brother-in-law. "Dear, don't worry about it. I am sure Chyenne will like whatever you do." Dark pulls away and thinks a bit. "I can help you with some of her sure likes. She enjoys being surprised, she loves my colorful butterfly tricks (actually, butterflies in general), and she loves nature."

"Should but probably wont. He needs blackmail material if he is to get anywher in life. Especialy with his parents. How is he supposed to get what he wants if he doesnt have any material to work with." Thistle replied practically.

Raiku had his ear on the door, trying his best to eavesdrop on the conversation. Aegis was a few meters behind, constantly pestering Raiku about the contents of the conversation taking place in the room. At the mentioning of a proposal Raiku smiled. This caused Aegis to immedietly shoot backwards, quite frightened. Raiku never smled!

Vincent raised a brow at the pixie before opening an orb scroll. "Don't make me do it."
Tesshu nodded. "That'd be wonderful Dark! Th more help the merrier!"
Riki smiled as he backed towards the door, giving it a profound thump with his heel. "Oops...I slipped."
