Aeryn couldn't help it. She finally let the laughter out as she heard Keira's words. She kept laughing for a while, seeming to find this all very amusing. You could tell, at least with Aeryn that the conversation earlier had really helped her. She heard Damien's words and she looked down at her best friend. "I think he's bluffing. What do you think?" she asked. But if there was a fountain... "Such a shame. I know." Ben agreed as he watched the two girls with amused eyes. Whatever they talked about earlier, it had obviously helped them out. There wasn't that silently building tension between them anymore. He wasn't scared that they were going to break out into a fight. Caelynne gave a tiny ghost of a smile as she ducked her head and watched her beat up shoes with rabid interest. When Lizbeth mentioned getting cleaned for lunch, she practically shot out of the room, eager to get away from the new guy who made her so uncomfortable and a place where she could breath easier. She headed upstairs and went through her meager stash of clothing as she tried to find something clean to wear. She finally just settled on the black shirt she wore yesterday and a baggy pair of jeans as she headed for the bathroom nearby. Ren just laughed at Jeremy's words before waving goodbye as the three headed upstairs to get clean. Turning back to Lizbeth, he grinned. "I'm ready to be taught oh teacher." he declared, his black eyes sparkling with mirth. |

Keira thought it over, drumming her fingers on her best friends hip as she thought. "Hmmm...Damien could be lying...but he has one of the best poker faces." She looked around Aeryn to Ben, "So? What's the deal, Vegas? Hmm? You two bribing us with nonexistent chocolate because then we may just have to leave y'all forever...." She told him, her innocent yet not so innocent smile on her lips. Damien could tell the girls had worked out whatever they needed to while they were on their own. Keira still had residual tensions but he had a feeling she always would. Compared to earlier, however, she was better by margins. Liz laughed as he came over, nodding and handing him a can opener before nodding to the two cans of sauce. "Open both of those and pour them in the large pot..." she instructed as she started to brown the ground beef, adding a few spices in as well. Mira came out of the bathroom as Caelynne came down the hall, hair still a bit wet from the shower. She smiled at the other girl, now wearing a simple grey halter and white cargo shorts. She glanced to the clothes in the girl's arms before speaking. "I know I've said it before but I can take you shopping, or even bring clothes home for you. I know it's a big thing but I'm starting to get worried about how over heated you're getting outside, sweetie. If I can't trust that you're not gonna pass out on me..." she trailed off with a small sigh, looking to the girl with concern. As much as the animals helped her, Mira's main concern was keeping her safe and healthy. "Youre more than welcome to keep those, of course, for cooler nights or sleep...but please just think it over?" Edited by RiddleMeThis396, Jun 14 2012, 08:50 PM.

Ben ((Not Vegas! She has me saying that now lol)) felt his lips twitch, but he kept his face serious as he shrugged. "Have I ever lied to you before, Belle?" He asked Keira with a completely innocent face as Aeryn snorted. "They're lying. They have to be." She told her friend as she ran her fingers through her friends choppy hair. "Have I ever told you that I like your hair like this? The layers look amazing in it." She complimented her with a smile. Ren nodded as he did what she was instructed, having a little difficulty with the can opener at first before getting the hang of it. He looked over to see her prepping the meat. "What are you adding to it?" He asked curiously. Caelynne smiled at Mira, but the smile dropped at the other girls words as she shook her head. "I'm good." She said quietly as she hugged her clothes to her chest. "Not passout. I'll be fine." She mumbled as she walked around her and into the bathroom. |

Keira watched Ben carefully, seeing the corners of his mouth twitching. She went to call him out when Aeryn spoke up. She looked to her best friend with a laugh, "Thanks doll! I like it too...but I'll admit I liked the simplicity of my pixie more..." she mused looking back to Ben then, "You have so when you told me you didn't like that I was tiny!!" she called him out with a smirk, resting her head against Aeryn's arm. Lizbeth shrugged at his question, "Salt, pepper, cayenne, basil...." she listed with a shrug, nodding to the onion on the counter. "Dice that up for me doll?" she asked with a smile, handing him a knife. Mira just shook her head and let the girl head into the shower. She was torn, to be honest. She wanted to help Caelynne but the clothes she wore were just too heavy for being out in the sun for as long as she was...She headed down to ops and waited at the doorway as usual. It was best if she didn't interrupt anything. Her face betrayed the thoughts running through her mind as she waited for a break. |

Aeryn just smiled as she continued to run her fingers through her friends hair. "I never tried to cut my hair that short. Wonder what it would look like." She mused thoughtfully. She had always had long hair for as long as she could remember. "And with you guys having me live out in the desert I'm sure shorter is better." She agreed. Ben laughed as he held up his hands. "It was one time! And I was totally teasing you. This time I'm not teasing. Why would I do something like that?" He asked her as he pouted. "Why no trust, Belle?!" Ren took note, not that hew knew any seasonings to beging with. When she nodded to the onion, he gave her a salute before taking the knife and began to chop the veggie up expertly. He was obviously comfortable with the sharp utensil, and the way he held it showed that he had used one before. He had no idea, however, of the effects that chopping an onion would be. As he made the onion into smaller and smaller pieces, the more his eyes watered. "Agh! What is this? My eyes burn." He whined as he stopped and moved away, wiping his leaky eyes onto his shirt. Damien had been working non stop all morning. So when he finally took enough of a breather to look at the clock, he blew out a breath. "Taking a quick break." He told Carol, deciding to get in a small smoke break while things were slow. Maybe snag a quick snack. Depending on what he could find. Pushing back from the table, he turned off his headset and set it down before heading to the door and found Mira there. "Hey." He flashed her a smile before seeing the look in her eyes. "Everything okay?" He asked her in concern. Edited by never_fade_away, Jun 14 2012, 09:50 PM.

Keira laughed, looking up at her friend curiously, "I think you'd look cute with shorter hair. Not a pixie though...you've gotta be kinda tiny. And yeah...generally speaking shorter locks are easier to tame in the Texas heat. If you want I'm sure Liz would do it for you..." she offered with a shrug before looking back to Ben. "Because it has to do with chocolate and leaving my love. These aren't things to mess with..." she told him, a smirk fighting to break through. Lizbeth watched him curiously as she took a small portion of the onion and added it to the meat as she spoke. "Well you have cutting things up mastered...." she teased him, handing him a couple of peppers to cut up as well. "Dare I ask how you kn---" she cracked up laughing at his reaction. "Awww....yeah onions are a little rough for newbies...it will pass soon." she promised him. Mira was kind of taken aback when she heard Damien's voice. Did she really want to bug him? But maybe hed be able to talk to his sister more than her. "Just a small scare out on the corral..." she said simply, but the look told him there was more to the story. "Lunch will be ready soon too..." she added with a small smile and a shrug. She didn't want to restrict Cay's access to the animals but if she didn't dress lighter there was a good chance she'd get over heated and possibly collapse.

"Hmm... it's definitely something to think about." Aeryn admitted with a smile. She didn't think she'd ever cut it as short as a pixie anyways. She at least wanted enough to pull it back if she wanted to. Ben restrained his laugh as he looked over at Keira. "Trust me, please?" He asked her as he sent her the most wounded puppy dog expression, brown eyes all large and liquidy, exactly like a dogs. There was a little pout on his lips, but you could tell he wanted to smile. Ren happily traded the onion for the peppers as he began to dice them up as well. At her question, he laughed. "It's part of training. At age twelve, they sent me out into the desert with only a knife and an empty canister and told me to survive for a week. Learned how to hunt and track, as well as several other useful survival tips. Then there was the self defense training." He flipped the knife around in his hands, showing off. "It was... an interesting way to grow up." He admitted. He'd have much preferred being normal like most of the other kids on the res, but that's not what the spirits had planned for him. Damien frowned at her words as he studied her carefully. "Scare? Is everything alright?" He asked, ignoring the dinner part. "Or Cay? She's okay too, right?" He asked worriedly. |

Keira looked to Aeryn, "I dunno, Snow, should we trust them?" she asked with a tilt of her head. Damien shook his head with a chuckle, knowing this could go either way but frankly he wanted his girl back next to him sooner rather than later. Liz listened to him with a nod, interested in how he grew up. "it's definetly different..." she said with a smile, draining the juice out of the beef before adding it to the pot of simmering sauce along with a few cans of beans. She mixed it around, but for someone who worked in kitchens stayed warily away from the flames. She was a lot better than shed used to be. "Once you're done add all of those into the pot." she added, giving him a small smile as she pulled her hair back into a messy bun. Along her neck was a rather prominent scar, and why she didn't wear her hair back often. Mira just looked at him, "Nothing happened..," she nodded her head to the other room and once he followed her she sighed. "Do you know your sister's attachment to her clothing? I haven't touched the topic before but they're getting much too heavy and dark to be working outside. I don't want to restrict access to something to helping her so much but I'm honestly afraid for her well being...," she told him gently, nothing but concern in her eyes. |

Aeryn tapped her jaw as she thought about it. "Hmm... I guess. I mean, what do we have to lose? If they are telling the truth, we get a chocolate fountain. Right?" She asked with a grin. "Chocolate fountain and the love of my life. Can't get any better than that." She teased, her grin turning into a smirk. Ren smiled, noting that she seemed to be cautious of flames. His sharp eyes also caught the scar on the back of her neck. He didn't ask though. It would probably bring up unwelcome memories. He worked on finishing up the peppers before adding them to the pot. "So chili is like... a soup of sorts then?" He asked curiously. Damien followed Mira into the other room, frowning as she brought up the problem. "I've been worried about for a little while now." He admitted to her. Sighing, he ran his fingers through his hair. "You're not going to get her to go shopping with you. I need you to do me a favour? If I give you her measurements, will you go get some? Preferrably not all black? I'll pay you back. I just don't want her getting injured or hurt. And I think if I can get her to slowly start dressing like she usually did before this all maybe that can help to. I don't know." He sighed. |

Keira pretended to think it over, "Hmmm...I do suppose you're right, love..." she grinned, but then sighed, "I guess I have to give you back then huh..." she pouted, looking up at her best friend. Liz thought over his question with a shrug, "Kinda. It has a much thicker base and is much more filling than soup..." she explained, putting the lid on top of the pot and turned the heat down a bit. She looked over to speak to the girls but they were already back in the den, laughter heard in the kitchen. She chuckled and cleaned up their plates as she spoke up again. "If you wanna ask, just ask darlin. Unlike Carol I'm not one for secrets and blocking people." she told him, her voice even having a tinge of laughter to it. It was no real secret to any main members on base and she knew he was going to be around a lot. She hated when people tiptoed around her. Mira listened with a nod, "I figured she wouldn't go shopping but with the oversized stuff I wasn't sure what her real size was." she admitted, "If you could get me her measurements I can send Hillary out tomorrow so Cay won't be on her own all day. Even though she's speaking to Jeremy now I don't wanna risk a full day of just the two of them yet. Well start out with basic t-shirts and longer shorts but lighter colors and fabrics." she paused, "I know this is an awlkward question, given its your sister and all, but sizing for undergarments would help a lot too...." she told him honestly, running a hand through her wet hair as she spoke. |
