-Erebus traced a rune over Tsuki's forehead as she reclined, nodding his head. He looked to !Hawk, assured her that Tsuki was in no danger from the rune, then stepped outside. He nodded his head to !Rose- I am ready to leave your base.
---
-!Sanctus shook his head- When you can be a true leader, and respect your warriors despite their faults for the sacrifices they make for your cause, you will have all of my respect. -He saluted !Rose, then took Kaika from his wife. He guided her to their bedroom, and if !Rose wanted to evict her she'd be evicting !Sanctus as well. He closed the door behind them-
---
-Erebus smiled as !Sanctus and co departed, that same damn icy smile- Strife and tension. I presume I am to strike that from my memory as well when I depart?

!Rose wasn't throwing anyone out of the base. !Kaimu mattered a lot to her but she did not have time to address personal issues at the moment. She just shook her head at !Sanctus and looked back at Erebus. She offered him a bitch smile and pushed herself off of the wall. "I believe you just answered your own question. Get out of my base."

-Erebus bowed his head once more, then strode towards the exit as if the armed guards were his honor guard, not an escort to make sure he didn't do anything naughty. Once outside, he sheathed !Reaver and shadowstepped back to Japan. !Kaimu knew how to find him... the black crescent moon-

!Rose watched him leave and then the base was put back into full lockdown. She yawned softly and shook her head before leaving to the library to go think about a few things. She would probably be speaking with !Kaimu tomorrow.

-!Armok was in his chambers, oblivious to Hikari's existence. The rain outside was torrential, and black clouds rumbled as lightning flashed-
---
-Erebus was in his sprawling estate in Japan, boots propped on the hand carved oaken desk with a crescent moon gilded into the wood. He was toying with !Dragon Fang, waiting on !Kaimu to make contact so his men could scoop her up and bring her to his territories-

AFR was in the med bay around !Tsuki... though !Rose had her covered by the curtains... so AFR just kinda waited for !Hawk to come by and ask her permission to talk to her. He found folly in his aggressions over Hikari's actions and realized how much they mean to him even though they are future selves. He waited reading his future book.

!Kaimu turned the corner then BAM! Hullo AFR! She tripped over his feet and fell to the ground. "OW! Watch where you put your feet you asshooooo- Hey Grandpa!" Dx

AFR blinked... "Kaimu?..." He smiled, and helped her up then pulled her into a hug. "Hey there... Long time no see..." He let her go... "I came here to see Tsuki, but it seems like this place is off limits... I don't know why... it's not like we are going to drag her outta bed to run a marathon or nothin'."

"Please. She's my sister. Like they'll keep me out." D< She pulled AFR into the room, but Tsuki was asleep. So, she kind of just sat down in a chair and patted the one next to her. "It's weird seeing you alive," she whispered.

AFR moved along with her. "I'm sure she has good intentions in it, Kaimu... but I still don't understand why family is refused." He looked around. "You have no idea how strange this is for me knowing I'm like the ghost of Christmas past walking these halls. But so much has changed..." He sighed a bit. "Especially !Rose." She had her reasons, but it didn't mean it didn't hurt AFR any less. His incentive for change in the past was to make damn sure !Rose avoided being this way in the future. He had a feeling her past self had a similar goal. " I still look to her as the best friend she was... I made her a promise that I intend to fulfill in any version of herself." He looked to her. "Don't blame her for being so hard boiled... I already regret my condemnations..." He looked over at the bed Tsuki was in behind the wrap around curtains. "I wish I could have been around for you all..."

"She's not the same person and it's disappointing." There were spite in !Kaimu's words. "Of course, I've never fit in here, so I can see why she sees me as nothing but a whiny child. Hope she realizes that I'm a woman before my end." !Kaimu bit her lip and looked at Tsuki. "We are all okay. It was hard for Tsuki and myself when you died. I was there." She looked saddened before she hugged AFR tightly. v.v "Don't blame yourself. You tried. None of us are mad at you for trying to hope. Faith is little in this place."

AFR hugged her just as tightly. "I've got a lot on my mind... your Rose showed me her entire life... I've seen it all and it's haunting knowing every promise I ever made her and others goes completely unfulfilled... When I lost Bianca, I lost my heart. I could see it through her eyes... not even she could help. I'm sorry for that and she will not go under my watch... I need her so much and I could understand why my future self came close to giving up... I saw You and your siblings... you got me through... this family... Rose was always there for me and she did wonderful things keeping me hopeful and faithful..., but you guys and Dominic were what kept me alive for as long as I lived. Family is everything, Kaimu... I guess that's what got me to fall out of the good graces of my brother, Armok and the Rose you know now."

!Kaimu smiled at him. "You practically raised us all by yourself. Well, them. I guess I was far too old to be raised, huh?" She sat back. "I have a daughter now. You didn't get the chance to see her." She was trying to avoid the whole thing about him dying. It was hard. Very hard. !Kaimu probably was the one who took it the hardest. Once her mother went coo coo for Cocoa Puffs, she only had him to turn to when it came to family. "I should take you to see her once Tsuki gets better." She would also leave out that the second Tsuki could get out of MedBay, they were leaving again. Bah.

AFR bit his bottom lip... "As much as I'd love the honor on my own, Kaimu, I can't take it. Rose helped me every step of the way it seemed. She grew as attached to you as I did in result... It'd be foolish to assume she doesn't care about you. I saw her love all of you and take responsibility for you. I guess that is why you and her have this rift between you. She spent a lot of time trying to be responsible for you, but that proved impossible. You'd never allow it like you don't now. Despite her miscomings out of the hell she's had to come by... she still has the heart of a caring person and it beats for all of you." He shook his head... none of that is what she wanted to hear or cared to hear. He smiled when she made mention of a child. "That's wonderful, Kaimu. I'd love to see her. Anytime is fine. It's good to hear you have that joy in life to experience." He looked back to Tsuki... "but yes... after she's well..." Tsuki getting hurt hit AFR hard... It was watching Candice getting hurt all over again in a way. "But I plan on doing as little dying as possible this time, thank you..." He smiled at her and wrapped his arm around her as they waited for signs of life from behind curtain number 1.

"Bah." !Kaimu folded her arms across her chest. She knew, she was just stubborn. "Well, she should know by now that I don't like being treated like a child. I'm not even hers. I wasn't a kid when this war broke out. I still am not a kid now." BAH! She pouted for a second before sighing. "I know you're right, but..." She laughed a bit. "Look who's kid I am." She smirked before looking back towards her sister. "Her name is Kaika. She's seven months old." !Kaimu leaned against him, like she used to before he died. "You better not die again, old man." Damn straight.
Tsuki shifted in bed, but was actually sound asleep.

"You can't expect much less from her... as long as I remembered Rose everyone is pretty much her child... but you'll both move on I'm sure in time." AFR smiled. "You'll never let anyone forget that... no matter how much you claim to hate her you are your mother's daughter for sure..." Except she got good parts and wasn't crazy go nuts. "I... thought it was impossible for you to have children honestly... but it is wonderful that it happened. I'm very glad for you." He kissed her head like he used to. "Why do people continue to call me that here... I'm like at the least almost 5 years younger then your most junior member." And it hurt his feelings ;-;. "I'd like you to think of me as an equal... now and then..."

!Rose was sitting in a hall somewhere on the floor, her personal guard stationed on either side of her. She was flipping through a scrapbook. At four in the AM. Girl was crazy honestly. Some things never change. She was going to talk to !Kaimu sometime today.

AFR was moving about the hallway... and of course he come across !Rose... he walked to pass her... then stopped. "Hell of a night..." He looked to her. "What's new, Rose?"

!Rose looked up at AFR curiously. Surprised he was talking to her right now. "Nothing really. Wallowing in regret. Fun times for the sleep deprived."

AFR half smiled. "Funny you should mention regrets... I have a few of my own." He moved in front of her. "Starting with you... as you are the most recent of my wrongs." He bit his bottom lip. "You either failed to hear me or didn't care to, but I'm sorry about what I said a few nights ago." He looked to her in shame. "I had no right to talk of things I couldn't possibly understand... until of course you showed me... and now there's just no excuse in my reaction..."
