- Gabriel de le Poer - 01-14-2008 [html] indent It would not startle Gabriel to hear that his siblings took delight pain and were born sadists. It would not startle him if they turned on one another and cut their family down. He was indifferent to them, in that respect, and would remain so because that was how he had to treat them. This he had seen with his own siblings, and he had learned not to care. As long as he could rise above the carnage at the end of the world, nothing would matter but that. Selfish, this thought was, but he had long ago disconnected himself from the family that fell apart at the seams. indent For now though, Gabriel was dreaming. It was the sort of thing that came often, the same dream that was always with him. The day of his brother’s murder. So in that nightmare he ran, he stumbled, and he was drowning in blood as his brother screamed and cried and begged for help. Guilt was a complex all Catholics carry well. Still, though, his dreams did not leave him screaming as he woke. No, there was nothing to show he was dreaming of that thing. Pushing himself up from the bed, he brushed his hair from his face and moved down the steps and onto the porch. And constantly, like the nightmares, he was breathing in smoke again. - Rachias Tears de Ame - 01-15-2008 [html]
- Gabriel de le Poer - 01-16-2008 [html] indent She might have grown larger, but she was far from her final size. Her eyes had remained blue, the same bright blue as Corona’s. It was a Lykoi color, even though she carried his name, something that Gabriel would always resent. Things like that, though, he never showed. Gabriel had long ago taught himself how to hide his emotions. “Fine,” he said shortly. When he looked at her, he saw a stranger. Rachias had long ago left their home, even though he would never chase her away. Not like her brother. “I’m going to be a father,” he said quite suddenly, as though even he didn’t believe it. - Rachias Tears de Ame - 01-16-2008 [html]
- Gabriel de le Poer - 01-23-2008 [html] indent He did not offer her any response, good or bad. She was not his daughter, she was not his problem. If she never came back, he would have to accept it. His family, as large as it was, shrank and whittled away over time. It was natural selection; only the strong survive. “You’re forgetting Empusa,” he reminded gently. “But yes. We haven’t know about it for very long, so she probably didn’t know when she saw you.” - Rachias Tears de Ame - 01-23-2008 [html] It did make sense that perhaps she hadn't known when they last spoke. Rachias was almost certain that Faolin would've given her the news. "Yeah but I don't see Empusa much." She'd only seen her in passing really. Rachias grew quiet then, thinking, wondering if it was the right time to change subjects or whether it was to soon. "I came here before." She said quietly, turning her head from her brother to gaze around a moment. "Andre tried to kill me. Said if I ever come back that he'd do it." But I ran away. She couldn't bring herself to say it, but she did. Arkham was the one that gave her the strength to not stay away, though. - Gabriel de le Poer - 01-25-2008 [html] indent Gabriel’s face turned dark, though his eyes began to glimmer with an old, well oiled fury. “That’s his second strike,” he said, not elaborating further. Another deep drag on the cigarette. Another moment in which he shifted his weight and studied the far distant sea. “Don’t worry about him. Even if you live with wolves, you’re still welcome here.” He did not explain that if she came back he would use her for information. He did not explain that even now, he would use her as a decoy, a weapon. What a terrible thing, to think such thoughts all ready. - Rachias Tears de Ame - 01-28-2008 [html] The girl wasn't at all surprised to hear to Andre had been causing other trouble, not just with her and Arkham, at least that was what she assumed by the way that Gabriel spoke. Rachias felt she shouldn't question further though, the look on her brother's face was more than frightening, really. His next words brought a very faint smile to her, a content sort of 'weight off the shoulders' feeling. Arkham would be delighted to hear that, even though he firmly believed that was the case anyways. "I'll come every day to check on Faolin!" She tried to keep the excitement out of her voice, both glad that she was able to come and go and that she was soon to be an aunt. It wasn't often that she saw pups smaller than herself. |
