kinship: ([sad] unwanted future)

001 Clone Chaos

[A: Lounge - Abel and Cain]

[Cain and Abel have been left alone, smaller brother still clinging to the taller one like a limpet. He knows he should let go, but this is so confusing and there is an ache in his chest that says all is not right between them. It's wrong to see his brother and not look into an identical face (albeit set in a scowl), it's wrong to see distress and grief in his eyes when they meet, and he wants it to go back to how it should be.]

...

[B: Kitchen - Rachel, Esther and Nanako]

[Having left the two failures alone the three girls have adjourned to the kitchen, where everything is set up and ready for the perfect mother to cook and clean for her family.

Or something like that.]


[C: Phone - Open to All]

[Some time later, after the emotional rollercoaster of that talk with Abel and still somewhat shell-shocked, Cain has come to himself enough for it to sink in there were others trapped here like them, and if they are all going to be working together then they needed to get acquainted. So there's a young boy's voice over the telephone, sounding calm and friendly. It's just a shame the background noise is less soothing.]

Ah-- Good evening, people of Mayfield. My name is Cain Knightlord and I've just arrived, along with most of the others in this house. Miss Alucard was already here; but the other new people are Abel Nightroad, Esther... [He didn't get her last name, so there's a small awkward pause.] ...and Nanako Dojima. I won't bore you with questions, Miss Alucard has been kind enough to explain most of what we need to know, but--

[What he says next is lost, as there comes a feminine screech from the kitchen, ranting something about 'housewives' and 'lazy priests making their own breakfast'. There's a crash of something heavy and squawk, before finally Cain's voice is audible again.]

--so I'm sure you'll agree with me. If it's not too much trouble, we'd love to get to know you all in return, so please don't be strangers.

[ooc: Part C is open to all and might be responded to by everyone in the house (Cain, Abel, Esther, Nanako and Rachel.]

T-Thank you.

Um, and my name is Nanako.

Whatever is coming, Father and I will handle it. He may act like an idiot but, he always comes through in the end. We'll be okay as long as he's on our side.

Nice to meet you Nanako.

Well, let me know if and when you're coming! The others can tag along too if they like. I'm never too busy for a tea party.

You too, Esther dear! How are things now?

[...now that it sounds like you guys are done breaking things in the kitchen...]

Seven, wow! That's a lucky number. You'll only get to be seven once, so I hope you have lots of fun. By the way, are you going to come over for tea with Cain?

[identity profile] junescutie.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
It's nice to meet you too. [she still sounds nervous, but she's getting used to this.. a little]

[identity profile] junescutie.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 08:09 am (UTC)(link)
[ahaha, so huffy. Nanako is getting better at feeling confident saying hello to these strangers on the phone, so she sounds a bit steadier]

Mm hm, a little...

[identity profile] junescutie.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
R-Really? Why is it lucky...?

[aaaaaah, she had heard Cain talking about it on the phone] It... would be okay if I came too?

[identity profile] battymadame.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
Why? Huh, good question! ... You know what, I bet it's because there are 7 colors in the rainbow, and rainbows are definitely very lucky.

Anyway, sure you can come.

Mm, that' makes sense. [such a wise woman]

O-Okay. Thank you!

[FLSKDJLFKJ MIKA...]

...That... isn't terribly reassuring, you know.

[identity profile] custodismundi.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 02:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, then... what would be more futuristic and cool a name for an airship for you, huh?

[identity profile] benevolentstar.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Well enough given the situation. How are you? You've must have been here longer than us, right?

[identity profile] pants-yourmove.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
So, you ended up in a house with people you know?

[identity profile] wonribbons.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... a few months can be considered long, but it's not as long as others, who have been here over a year...

[identity profile] pants-yourmove.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't now, some government code name maybe like the A-SH 12 or maybe the... uh... High Altitude Personnel Transport?

Or, maybe come up with an Acronym that spells out AIR SHIP?

[identity profile] pants-yourmove.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, though there are a lot of people in town like that. They're the smart ones.

I know, but it's just...this place is awful. I don't doubt either of you, but I don't want you guys getting overwhelmed either.

Trust me when I say this, it only takes one moment of distraction for everything to go completely wrong.

I wish I could be, but unfortunately this is Mayfield, Abel. I'll bring over a letter explaining the situation when I stop by later today, I'll have copies for all the adults and I'll be willing to help explain to the kids as well.

If my estimations are correct, you guys got here just in time to have a few days to get used to this place before things go nuts.

I'm sorry.

That's okay, nobody else around here seems to have either. I think there's a couple people like me here, but I think I'm the only wolf.
