Devin kissed the top of Nina's head in response, so glad to have the chance to be here with her. He couldn't honestly imagine himself with anybody else but his spunky little Brann girl. She was everything he could have ever asked for and more.

Adelle smiled as Nina asked about her God and leaned back. "The Sky Lord? He is... stern. He is a stout defender and rules over his subjects with honesty, justice, and fairness. His rules, unfortunately, have been twisted over the years and used to their own advantage. Many male birds believe to be the superior of the species and dominate over their woman, but I do not believe the Sky Lord is this way himself. He does not often involve himself in the affairs of his people else I would think he would try to change this. There is not much on my God as there is the others, but I heard that he is the oldest of his family, therefore making birds the first of the shifters." She explained.


Kyler chuckled as he brought her hand up to his lips and kissed the back of it sweetly. "But I love it when you explain things." He winked playfully. "And nothing really, love. By the time we arrive, everything should be in working order again and all issues resolved. If anything, I'll be called in by Ian and Finn to help with some of the rebuilding, but there's no important issues that take presedence. However, there will be the Stirling family dinner in which we must attend." He flashed a smile in her direction. "There is no declining the invitation, unless we want Colleen banging on our door and dragging us out by our ears. Well my ear at least."


Betta listened, obviously interested as she looked back to the other manuscripts. "Have you ever tried to translate the ones left over here?" She asked as she turned back to him with a smile. "If that one was as useful, think of what these others could possibly hold within their pages." She asked, standing up and finally walking back over to her amore. She did love him so very much. He was the most incredible man she had ever met in her life and she couldn't imagine her said life without him. To her, he hung the moon and stars in her world.

Nina listened curiously, nodding every now and again. “Things used to be like that here many generations ago...and some people still believe women should be treated with less respect but that's changed dramatically. Kai and Karmen are prime examples of such, as well as the young woman working at the forge with my cousin.” She mused with a small shrug and a smile. “Only exception to that has always been the High Priestesses...”


Kai nodded, listening to his words with a small smile. “Nina was telling me they were visiting...she's nervous as all hell.” She admitted to him, playing with his fingers idly. “Honestly I can't wait to meet the people who raised you...” She added with a teasing smile, “I can't imagine the amount of dirt and pictures I'll get to see.” She flashed him a teasing grin, obviously holding no nerves towards meeting the couple as Nina did. She was more curious than anything.


Bryce kissed the top of her head as she came back over to him, “We've tried, Sheng especially, but we can't decipher the ancient languages. Sheng has a feeling at least one is a Malvagio text that was taken in an ancient war and another is a Fey history....the one we're most curious about actually is the one which intertwines our history with yours.”

Adelle nodded as she tucked some of her dark hair behind her ear. "Unfortunately, there are still so many birds who believe that men are superior to their women. My family was one of those types. It's not a real great life to live. It's amazing to see them exist in this day and age on Earth because of what vast progress humans have made over this past century." She explained. But it still happened and Adelle couldn't be happier than she had escaped that lifestyle and had met her husband. She couldn't imagine her life with anybody else.


Kyler chuckled at her words before groaning. "And Colleen will have plenty of them. You know I was kind of hoping to avoid all of this. I wish there were some of you I could see. It's the only way to make this fair you know." He nodded 'seriously', a strand of blond hair falling out of place.


"Wow... that's pretty crazy, amore. I wonder what they would tell" Betta admitted as she whistled impressively. "So... any other thing interesting about this room I should know about?" She asked with a smile as she looked up at him, arms happily wrapped around him where they belonged.

Nina nodded, "In the Highlands, where my people are from, women are supposed to obey their older men in their family and society." She explained with a small shrug, "Women rarely listen though...unless you're of higher class. The worst is the relationship between the high classes and the low. Well....it is now anyway. So much has changed since the upheaval." She mused thoughtfully with a sigh. "Here Squibs are the outcasts more or less...but Karmen has been trying to do good by them.",


Kai laughed, "There are some old portraits of me when I was little but none of them are embarrassing. Remember I don't have cameras here...." she mused, bopping his nose playfully. In fact, before she met Sare she didn't know they existed. She liked having the memories, though, especially of herself and Kyler.


Bryce smiled as he swayed them a little bit. "Yeah, from what I understand a lot of our legends and histories intertwine with yours on Earth. We weren't so separated centuries ago...." he explained with a small shrug, knowing Nina or Sheng would be better at explaining it all. When she asked about the room he thought on how to answer. "This was a refugee for us as children and young teens. No one else to our knowledge knows this is here. There were a lot of fears admitted here, loves and losses discussed.....we used to disappear for hours at a time. Nina and Iggy too. Its both cool and alarming that no one would find you up here....but I guess that's why it's here."

Adelle nodded as she looked to her husband before back at Nina. "I don't really think that we have a problem with high class or low class. I mean, there's obvious places of power in the pack, but they're not really abused. I admit that pack politics still confuse me a little." She admitted as she looked back to Nina with a smile.


"Yes I know." Kyler sighed melodramatically as he leaned into her a little. "That just means that I'm going to have to take as many embarrassing photos as you as possible before Fiona get's old enough that way we can have something." He teased her with a grin. "And with Sare around, plenty pictures of everybody will be taken."


Betta giggled silently as Bryce began to sway them, causing her to lean into him fully as she swayed as well. "That's... kind of cool actually. A whole entire race of people that our history doesn't even know about... or brushes off as myth." She grinned up at him. "And I just happened to somehow catch the eye of one of their Princes. What kind of luck is that? I have to be dreaming. He's just too good to be true." She teased.

Nina smiled with a small giggle, "Trust me, lass, I'm probably just as confused as you if not more...." she mused, very happy and content. She jumped, though as Cristol came up behind her and placed her hands on her shoulders none too gently. "Goddess above! Don't do that ye twit!" She gasped, trying not to laugh as Cristol just grinned.

"Oh but it is so much fun......" She argued with a laugh, winking playfully at the others. "So, what I wanted to know was do we get to hear you tonight?!"

Nina blushed lightly, "Umm...I'm not so sure. I haven't transferred really anything to paper yet...." she admitted, giggling as Cristol put out a bottom lip like a wounded puppy.

"Ugh! So not fair....you all have to hear her play! 'Specially the tunes she's brought back and rewrote from Earth..." The older girl insisted as Nina just blushed deeper.


Kai made a face at him, "If you ask Sare I'm sure she has some from when I first arrived at school and didn't know what she was constantly shoving in my face...." she admitted with a small laugh, playing with his fingers idly.


Bryce chuckled lightly with a small nod, kissing the top of her head before making a face at her. "Yes well fortunately or unfortunately for you you're not waking up any time soon. You're stuck with me, sassi." He teased her lightly, tightening his grip around her playfully.

Even Devin jumpst slightly as Cristol scared Nina and came up behind her. He chuckled as he smiled over at the woman as she asked about Nina playing. "I think you should, Sparky." He told her with a smile. "Look at the fan base you have. We all want to hear you play something." He told her as Adelle nodded, remembering the small bit that Nina had played the other night. Was it the same instrument or what? Either way, Adelle wanted to hear.


Kyler chuckled as he shook his head. "I'll have to see that. If it makes you feel better, you'll probably end up seeing the picture where Devin got gum stuck in my hair as a kid." He made a face at the memory. Colleen had had her hands full raising three boys.


Betta giggled as she struggled in his arms, but not really. "No! What if I do not wish to be stuck with you?!" She asked him as she giggled more, smiling up at him. Leaning up, she cut him off with a kiss before he could say anything.

Nina went to protest but she knew it was going to be a lost cause. "Fine...." She sighed, blinking as Cristol produced a violin from behind her back. She groaned a little as she sat up straight, "One song...." She told them, rolling her eyes and giving a small laugh Cristol grinned and plopped down in an arm chair nearby.

"That's fine! Then I'll leave you be...for now." Cristol agreed, looking up with a smile as Sheng rested his arms on the back of her chair as Nina thought over what to play.


Kai grinned up at him wickedly, stealing a teasing kiss. "I can't wait!" She laughed, happy for the distraction. Peter was across the room "talking" with Angelina and Jason. It had taken everything she'd had not to just flat out beg him to remove her horrible memories. She still felt rather numb but she was putting on her best face. It bothered her more that she even felt this way about Cohen still. She was with Kyler and beginning a real life with him.....she was happy for once so why did this have the power to make her miserable?


Bryce went to correct her when he felt her lips against his. He paused their swaying and kept her there as he kissed her back happily. He pulled back finally with a small grin, running his thumb along her cheek lightly, "Tá mé i ngrá leat..." He murmured, kissing her forehead gently. He knew they should probably head back down soon but he was enjoying himself quite a lot.

Devin grinned in triumph as he kissed her cheek. "You are the best, Sparky." He pointed out to her as he leaned back and got comfy in his seat. Adelle was also smiling brightly, excited to hear Nina play. She wondered if she could get Nina to play back home for the pack or just back home at all. She would have to see.


"Of course you can't." Kyler teased her with a dimpled smile. He could still see the troubled look in her eyes, but she seemed to be holding up well. He knew that he would do whatever he could to help her move past it and find a way to deal with it. All he wanted was for her to be happy. "So... I heard from across the room that Nina is playing for us soon." He murmured as he kissed the top of her head.


Betta just grinned up at him as he pulled back, leaning in and wrapping her arms around him tightly. "Te amo, amore." She replied simply as she kissed his cheek. She knew that since Bryce was the Prince here that they were expected back soon, but she was thoroughly enjoying her time up here with him. She didn't want to head back yet. Pulling out of his arms, she curtsied playfully. "So my Prince, would you like to dance?" She asked as she held her hand out with a grin.

Kai chuckled with a small nod, "Yeah, apparently Cristol is the culprit who started it..." She mused, settling into him as Nina begain to play. She nearly laughed, though at the selection. Nina could transfer nearly any song by ear if she heard it enough. The song would sound very familiar to those from Earth especially as she merged into the bridge. Cristol sat there with a grin on her face; Earth music was always so much different... Well when you took a song like Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson and put it on the violin it was bound to sound different than the more classical pieces they were all used to.


Bryce pouted as she pulled away before chuckling as she curtsied, "Now...how could I say no to you..." He teased her lightly, looping an arm around her waist before guiding her around the room. If there was one thing he quickly learned was dancing here and dancing on Earth were two very different things...and he was much more adept at his home land's.
