"Ooooooooooooo!" Dahlia stared at it in amazement, a wide smile on her face. "He's the coolest thing I've ever seen! I wish my daddy would buy me something like that. All he ever does is teach me how to hit people..."

"Yeah, he gave me Scuro and he gave Nikolai some funny books with men kissing each other" Arden said, seeming a little confused. She suddenly smiled brightly and turned to the TV. "Wanna watch a movie? I heard there's a Raggedy Ann movie on now that's really weird".

"Men kissing each other?" Dahlia blinked. "That's weird... Mommy has a lot of books like that, too. She keeps on asking that mean girly person for them... And sure!"

The brunette smiled slightly and turned on the television, changing the channel to where the movie was playing. On the screen were two naked dolls that were dancing and singing.
Five minutes later, Arden was burying her face in Scuro's body and sobbing in what appeared to be fear.

Dahlia sat in front of the screen, kicking her feet together in boredom. Noticing that her friend had been quiet for a while, she glanced over at her and frowned when she saw her crying into her plushie. "What's wrong? Are you afwaid of the movie?"

"Raggedy Ann scares me" Arden mumbled into the stuffed gargoyle. Without warning, the elder girl curled herself around the plushie and fell off the sofa. She kept herself balled up against Scuro, muttering what seemed to be a prayer. "Please milord, protect me from the ragdoll demon".

Dahlia crawled forward and turned the television off, then looked back at Arden, smiling. "Don't worry, the scawy dolly is gone now!"

"Oh, Dahlia, my Master and I cannot express our graditude" Arden exclaimed happily as she gave her best friend a hug. After a brief second, the elder girl released Dahlia and her smile faded to a neutral expression.

Roze-
Roze heard the conversation downstairs, and it seemed to deflate whatever they were doing there. Sighing, she nodded. "Yeah... I guess. Let's go. After all, I bet you're merely curious as to what they're talking about. After all, you've always been a snoop." she playfully teased him. Maybe she wasn't right on what he'd do, but she knew she could tease him about it nonetheless.

He got to his feet, but raised his brow when Roze sighed. "If I didn't know any better, I'd say you'd rather stay in here and make out like a couple of teenagers." he teased.
He regretted the words as soon as they spilled from his lips. Although he was joking, being a jerk wouldn't earn him any points. He offered his arm, gentlemanly fashion, adding, "May I, m'lady?" When she got to her feet, he placed his hands on her shoulders and traced his thumb along her collarbone. "I'd much rather kiss you somewhere more befitting a lady." he said softly and gave her another small kiss.
He opened the closet door, glancing out to make sure no one would see them leaving it. He didn't give a flying fuck if anyone thought he was a sleazy cad, but he didn't want no one whispering about Roze when she walked by... or snickering at her. Then he'd have to kick some asses, and then Scar would probably throw him through a window, bust his arms and toss him in the pool to drown. He grinned at her remark, "Oh yeah...I'm one of the nosiest bastards I know."

Roze blushed at his comment. "I... just never had done anything like that before... but I thought it'd last a little longer..." However, when he offered his arm, she took it to help her get to her feet. "Thanks... Kimblee-sama." she said, a smile in her voice, as well as on her face. She saw him glance around the hallway, as if looking for someone. "What's wrong Kimblee...? Looking for another mate?" she teased him back, as revenge for what he said to her earlier- although she didn't care too much about it. She giggled at his comment saying that he was the nosiest people he knew. "At least you're honest about it. Which is more than I can say for some people..."

'Thought it'd last a little longer?' he thought incredulously. That and 'never done anything like this before?'
His first impulse was to scream, 'JACKPOT!!' at the top of his lungs. He turned back to her and said, "Darlin... you ain't making it easy to be a gentleman right now...And lemme get this straight... you're a virgin? I mean... a real, honest to goodness virgin? Wow! Mother would be proud!"
He suddenly felt a bit panicked. How would he go about handling a delicate little flower like Roze? He was completely awed. It was pretty rare for a gal her age to be so...innocent.
No way in hell she was getting away from him, that's for sure.
He stuck his tongue out at her remark about looking for someone else, "Oh, perish the very thought, sugar! You may not know it yet, but I'm gonna marry you and you're gonna have my kids. Holy crap! Where have you been all my life!"
'Smooth, Zolf. That's real original.' he thought to himself dryly.

Roze blushed slightly at his suprise. "W-well... I was waiting... you know... Is it that akward?" In Lior, most people wouldn't have done anything until they had found the right person- religion and all- so she didn't think that would be such a big deal.
However, if she thought she was blushing now, it was nothing when compared to the blush when he spoke his next line. "I-i am?" she asked incrediously. She didn't know if he was joking or not, but from his response, she'd guess not. He seemed to be pretty genuine in his speech. She didn't know when they'd have time to have kids... but she smiled at the thought. "I don't know... running around?" she pondered, as if actually considering the question.
"H-how would we even have kids in this enviroment?" she asked, both asking about getting them in the first place and about raising them.

"...Dante?" Scar began, miraculously appearing from Ishbal-knows-where to put his arms around her from behind the armchair.. Apparantly he could just pop out of space at the most convenient, or inconvenient, time. (Fourth wall, hah). "...Do you know why we have a full suit of armor on the front porch?"
(Sorry I haven't been on. School stuff, y'know...))

((OOC: No worries! Real life comes first, after all)
Dante had been resting when her husband wrapped his arms around her. Breaking from her daze, she smiled softly when she recognized the presence. "Suit of armor..?" she repeated, a thoughtful expression crossing her face. "I've no idea. Perhaps Barry needed a new friend?"

His jaw dropped further as he listened to her replies. He almost slid to the floor on his ass from pure shock. "Wait--what?" he asked, shaking his head as if it were full of cobwebs and clutter. 'Wow!' he thought, 'She didn't slap me or anything!' By which he really meant, 'Holy hell, she didn't slap me, say she wouldn't marry me if I were the only man on the planet and then storm off.'
"Sorry, purdy darlin," he said as he took her hand. He put his arm around her as they descended the stairs and returned to the porch to eat. "I didn't meant to throw so much on your plate at one time."
He fixed a plate for them both, nice juicy steaks, corn on the cob with lots of butter and potato salad. He handed her one plate and got cutlery for both of them. He sat his food at the umbrella'd patio table and pulled a chair out for her before taking his own seat.
"Seriously though... I wouldn't raise my kids at this house. I have a good paying job, we'll get our own place. Hell... Dante's kid is okay..naive, like a kid should be. Them other two though..." he said with a shudder, "demon spawn. I gotta wonder about Martel sometimes. Why would any sane parent let their kid read porn under the couch? Surely she's not so clueless she don't know about it."
He sat across from her, watching her and smiling. She was awfully pretty and sweet too. And far more interesting than gambling junkets in Las Vegas.
Sarai
She watched as Kimblee pulled a chair out for the young pink haired woman and raised her brow. He certainly hadn't shown her those kind of manners! She snorted and got to her feet. She walked into the house and noticed him and the other newcomer standing at the door, examing...a suit of armor?
"Barry... where did this come from?" she asked, puzzled. "Why is it on the front doorstep?"

Roze followed Kimblee outside to the porch, listening to him. At least he didn't think she was odd, and actually wanted to have children with her, unlike some other men she had seen in Lior, that weren't in it becasue they wanted to have a relationship that lasted more than a month. She nodded in response. "I'm not that bad in the pay area, either." she smiled, "So we won't have to rely soley on your income." she looked at Kimblee, taking a bite from her steak.

Barry looked up and smiled as Sarai approached.
"Frankly...I haven't the slightest." He scratched his neck again.
"But its obvious it can't stay there." With a determined sigh, he went behind it and grabbed the sturdy thing around the waist, perspiration forming on his forehead as he somehow managed to shuffle it in the house without toppling over on top of it.
It couldn't be done without leaving a few nasty scratches in the floor however, as the heavy metal-studded boots of the suit scraped the floor.
He shifted it upright again, and looked at it with a sigh.
"Its probably one of Dantes purchases. She would probably be the one to buy something like this."
With a mischevious grin he slipped off the helmet, placing it on his own head and making himself cross-eyed, standing on one leg at the same time.

Jean flipped more meat while people came by and took some of the already BBQ'd food.
The doorbell had gone and a couple of people had gone to answer it allowing Denny to grin as he could relax even more.
With his legs stretched out in front, allowing himself more room than his job permitted, he cocked his head slightly so he could just hear mumbling coming from the house.
"There's someone at the door I think." He deduced, what with no one having returned yet and the talk.
"No, really? I always thought the doorbell was supposed to go when no one was there?" His seemingly genuinely astonished act was only ruined by the fact that his face had remained straight and rather uninterested.
With a well mustered glare, Denny returned to his beer, mumbling at how his friend never let things slip by.
"Sausages are done." The bi-coloured haired man announced as he moved them onto a plate.
Truth be, Jean wasn't really interested in the small chatter.
His mind was wandering for no particular reason.
Things had been going too smoothly, too quietly lately. Maybe it was because of being in the military for so many years, all the active service, it had him feeling uneasy in times of peace.
Let's face it, he wasn't trained to sit around and make happy by the barbecue.
