*It may have always seemed that she kept him at more than arms length, and never let him get close to her. But it that was the case why did this bother her so much? Why did it break her heart that he would not be what he said he was. But he was still saying he was that. It just did not seem to compute. It certainly a shock to her to see him cut himself and bleed like that. She did not like to see him hurt and bleeding, nor did she like the sight of blood alone* Please don’t do that. I just don’ t get it. Something is missing It just does not fit. I am sorry I won’t ask questions any more. I will just do what you ask of me. If it is that important to you I don’t need to understand it”

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:09:57 AM)
No that's not it. You talk of heritage this heritage that. The same words my dad speaks.. Have you gone through your own rite of passage? Have you seen the spiritual side of things? Have you seen the counsul chambers for the Margrave? No no you havent.. why? Because kin do not do such things. The Lords choose their tribe members on their abilities more so than who their parents are. *he slashes his arm again. Oh and it did hurt. Caused him to wince even* But our blood is the same regardless of our heritage or tribe. We are born for gaia, we bleed for gaia, we die for gaia. *It wasn't just cosette that he was upset with. It was more of the exact things he has been wanting to say to his own father* Don't you see? Only your human eyes really put such high value on heritage over ability.. It's not the way of the tribe.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:21:33 AM)
*She felt damned if she did and damned if she did not. She was told one thing by one garou and told something else by yet another. Two views that did not fit in the same world by members of the same tribe. She wanted to believe that heritage did not matter, but it just was not true. Otherwise why would have her mortal mother and her red hair been such issues all of her life. This view was forced into my words and treatment, not told to her with words. She had started to question it with Steven. Perhaps in her own time she might have told him about her mortal mother. She might have told him her deepest darkest secret. But she was sure he found out on her own and betrayed his own words when saying his parents would not accept her and asking her to change her physical appearance. His words were flowing in her ear but she was distracted by the physical actions he was taking. She could not stand the sight of it she wanted so badly to just close her eyes and pretend she could not see it. But that would not have

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:21:56 AM)
But that would not have stopped it. It might have even made it worse. Why did it hurt to see him in pain? Was it just because he was a tribe member that it hurt her to watch this?

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:22:06 AM)
(( more))

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:27:21 AM)
Please stop, I hear you, I hear what you are trying to tell me. Please don’t do that anymore. I can’t stand to watch it. I’d prefer you to hurt me than to hurt yourself like that. *She was so sincere and so truthful with him that it could not be denied * I don’t ever want to cause you this much frustration and pain. It’s not right. *She began to take steps towards him, sure it was dangerous but she had to at lest try to keep it from happening again. That was sacred garou blood it should not be spilled over something so stupid and trivial. She reached out lightly putting her hand on his shoulder if he would let her* Please, Vincent just tell me what you want me to do. I will do it this second”

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:27:32 AM)
(( I smell skin dancers))

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:27:36 AM)
(looks like there's some skin moving around)

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:27:42 AM)
(lol yeah)

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:27:56 AM)
(*chases her out of his head*)

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:28:07 AM)
(( ^_~ ))

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:33:38 AM)
*he finally shifted to glabro hoping that this was a message that would linger in her head. after healing he shifted back to homid and thumped down hardly on his old yet comfortable couch. His voice was much more calm now that he had a chance to vent* I have humans in my own family as well you know.. *he was taking a stab at the guess. Mother with red hair. One she didn't talk about, messages from her brother* I don't care what your brother beat into your head. Even he knows that the tribe prefers ability over heritage. Perhaps he was heckling you out of spite.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:42:26 AM)
*She stood there for a bit just trying to get her bearings about her. She wants to stand there for a bit longer, not really saying anything to him the idea still in her mind, of what he had said and what had happened. She wait a bit before disappearing into the bathroom only to return with a warm wet washcloth. There were no wounds but the blood he had already lost was still there. She did not offer the cloth but rather started to clean up the blood on his arm the best she could herself* “Maybe, I still find it embarrassing that it is so close. But let’s not talk about it please. I don’t want to upset you”

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:43:31 AM)
My dad thinks the same way. But only for his own son. He like your own brother expects nothing but perfection. In my eyes, you are such perfection. *did he just blurt that out loud?*

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:47:36 AM)
*She looked at him funny for a second not sure if she thought she heard what she did. She was not going to ask him what he said there was no reason to. She finished up with one arm then folded the coth over * Can I see your other arm ? *She asked, keeping her tone soft and clam* "Your father is right to want the best for his son"

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:50:41 AM)
*he gave her his other arm.* And he wouldn't approve.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:53:01 AM)
*She was careful when she took his other arm and cleaned the blood of it as well, she was slow and detailed about it, partly beacause she was thinking the whole time.* "You are the True Born. Your word is law, father or not"

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:55:38 AM)
And if I defy him and his traditions? my ancestors will surely abandon me.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:57:15 AM)
It is part of our law to respect those beneath you. Thats why I like you the way you are. Some like my father have harder times with such a law.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 12:57:40 AM)
Then you have no other choice then to see to his will. *It was about that time her cell phone rang. She looked at the name, then got up taking the bloody wash cloth with her to toss it in the trash can, answering* Hello?

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 12:58:27 AM)
*he eyes her carefully listening to at least her side of the conversation*

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:00:17 AM)
*She walks towards the bathroom where she could shut and lock the door before answering, the voice on the phone* Douglas? How are you doing? me? I am well. What can I do for you?

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:03:08 AM)
*figuring the best idea was not to lock him out she unlocked the door* You do? Well I am afraid that Steven has put a limit on who I can speak with privately. I hope you do not mind his company as well"

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:05:37 AM)
No Douglas it is not that at all. But I just got done with a very crazy moment and I don't think I can handle another episioid like that this week.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:11:19 AM)
*steven just walked over to the table and took a seat in the chair there. Still listening in enough to tell he didn't like the sounds of the conversation.*

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:12:44 AM)
Douglas? You are not angry with me are you? and What of the news? No i haven't watched it.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:15:41 AM)
No, I am at steven's place. Are you sure you can't come over and talk with me while he is here? I don't want to upset him. He is my guardian, and I am his kin. What he says goes.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:17:31 AM)
*steven has been growing really impatient with the fianna around here. their kin upsetting his own tribal meeting. Now the galliard interupting his lesson and courtship. He starts drumming his fingers on the table*

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:17:44 AM)
I see. Some other time then. thank you for your call Douglas. It is always a pleasure to talk with you.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:18:14 AM)
(( I love steven!))

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:19:49 AM)
I am Steven would not mind if you asked his permission.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:21:06 AM)
Oh? a problem? What is that?

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:22:07 AM)
*steven of course had no clue what the conversation was about. He would simply stop drumming his fingers catch her eyesight and make a gesture to hang up an imaginary telephone and mouth the words "Say Goodbye already'*

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:23:21 AM)
*She laughed* Indeed Douglas, Until we meet again. Good bye Douglas

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:27:21 AM)
*She hung up her phone, setting it down on the table. Then for whatever reason she walked over to where Steven was sitting. She then took the liberty of sitting herself down in his lap, her arms slipping around his neck. She just sat there looking at him for several long seconds* I am sorry I upset you today. Do you forgive me?"

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:27:31 AM)
*Yeah he was growing impatient. He was half tempted to grab the phone right at the point he hung up and tell him he already knew about the damn fairies in arcadia. But there is tribal business to discuss in the real world and hang the phone up for here. He was a second to late though So all he said was....* Damn them galliards talk to freekin much.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:29:10 AM)
No it's not your fault.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:29:18 AM)
So i guess I'll forgive you.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:31:33 AM)
*She tiled her head to side slightly looking at him a little funny* You are not jealous are you? *She asked giving his neck a small hug. She was not going to linger long in his lap. She was not even sure why she did it in the first place. It might have just been because he seemed to irritated by the phone call*

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:32:38 AM)
Not really.. Just annoyed that he has something so important that it couldn't wait until you next seen him

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:34:42 AM)
I don't suppose that he would see me next time. I have not spoken to him in a long time. I like to take your orders into consideration most of the time.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:36:21 AM)
So...

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:37:06 AM)
*he thinks. Not remembering what they were talking about before becomming annoyed with the fianna* Anything else on your mind?

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:38:52 AM)
So? *She asked the same question, then she shook her head* No, I don't think there is. Well when do I need to do the hair thing?

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:39:30 AM)
When do you want to meet my parents?

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:39:47 AM)
I have no prefrences.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:39:48 AM)
Im sure my mother would be willing any time of the day.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:39:59 AM)
and Father is all but retired

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:40:48 AM)
Your mother. She sounds like a very sweet woman, your father, well that is up to him. I just need sevreal hours in advance so I can have my hair done.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:41:51 AM)
*he nods* Perhaps in the next couple of days then?

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:43:51 AM)
That would be fine. *She got up from his lap, feeling a little bit like she should not have been there in the first place. She was not too sure what had come over her in the first place*

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:45:09 AM)
perhaps I'll will send you to the salon for the full treatment tomorrow early in the afternoon. and we'll dine with my folks in the evening.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:46:41 AM)
Alright, that sounds like a plan. *She smiled putting her hands in her back pocket. She was all set to walk out the door when she stopped herself and turned back to him* Can I ask you something?

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:48:17 AM)
what's that? *he was suprized she was so bold to leave alone after such a recient call with the galliard he told her not to speak with alone.* and were are you off to in such a rush?

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 1:54:06 AM)
Going home. Why were you worried I was rushing off to meet Douglas? I was not. I told him I would not see him with you you present. *she was silent for a while and then looked like she would walk off without asking her questions. She turned around once again, as more stern look on her face* "Vincent. I am not sure....a ward should act like this with her guardian. So I am going to go home."

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:58:25 AM)
*he was increasingly frustrated with her* Cosette..... *he couldn't do it yet.. not without his parents approval. His hand went to the side of his pants pocket and he felt that ancient ring calling out to him. All this talk about wards and guardians and parents, and mates over the last few days bothered him finally to the core. Has this trickster out tricked himself in such a twisted plot there was a long pause after he said her name as if he was seriously reconsidering his own words.*

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 1:58:42 AM)
(more)

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:01:19 AM)
*but he thought, he was garou.. he was the only garou in his immediate family. He was the dominate one. Over his mom, over his father, over Susan, over his cousin, even over his ward. The choices he made were not to be questioned by kin. This was as instinctive to hims as a wolf follows his alpha* Cosette.... *he repeated her name.. still struggling with his own demons *

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:02:49 AM)
No I am not upset or anything it’s just not proper to be honest with you. I just have to make sure I don’t drink *she laughed to herself the very idea of it was not funny at all. But she didn’t see why he was getting frustrated for * I have upset you again?

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:04:32 AM)
*he couldn't believe what he was trying to say. His hand went into his pocket as if his plan was all to work out earlier than expected.* No not at all..

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:07:48 AM)
I am not going to tease you about being jelaous any more. That is not right either. I just think that I want to have a decent relationdship with you. I just dont want it to get weird. I guess what...I am trying to say is that I might be starting to...feel ways that I probably should not. So try to over look me. *She said with a smile and leaned in giving him a peck on the cheek* I should go home. I'll call you tomorrow.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:07:58 AM)
Cosette.... *hearing her name for the third time it wasn't out of anger for sure, it would have been more intimate in private setting than with an audiance. * Your Judgement is lifted, what I am to ask you shall not speak to anyone until I ask the question again, is this understood? *he waited for an answer*

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:13:57 AM)
My judgement is? What? Are you ok? Did you loose too much blood? I thought I had to dye my hair first and -then- I got my just reward? *She thought he was acting very very strangly and it worried to say the least. She reached over to take him by the arm and attempet to lead him back ot his couch* "Lets get you sat down...I think I know what you are going to ask and No, I am sorry. I don't know where Crown is. You need a banana...

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:16:03 AM)
No.. hold on.. I have something to say first... *he really didn't care what his parrents though anymore. Damn them damn their opinions, and damn their traditions* Scratch that.. I want the whole of gaia both physical and spiritual to know. *He pulled the ring out of his pocket and clenched it tightly* I no longer want you as my ward, but as my wife and mate. *he opened his hand to show he that ancient ring . It wasn't an old ring made of platinum etched with tiny engravings what looked like runes. In the center was a stone. Crystal clear and brilliantly polished as the day it was first cut* Please say yes.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:21:16 AM)
Is that not what is suppose to build your iron and potassium? I have no idea where the Crown is but I think I can get you some water. *She was about to get him a glass of water when he spoke again. He would let him say his words first. She figured it would be gibberish. She was not repaired for his words. She stumbled back a couple of steps blinking several times. She had not even seen the wring yet. She just heard that he wanted her as mate and wife. Sure they had talked about that before but it was a joke. It would have been for convince, it would have been more formal. She would have been in a better mental place where she could put these feelings where they belonged. She had put that idea out of her head a while ago. She was let completely speechless.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:24:40 AM)
I am nearly fostern, and I have already sought out permission from those around us.but my parrents. I was going to aske you infront of them after they accepted you as a potential mate. Hence the hair coloring. But I im am the dominant one in my family as the only trueborn garou. My words are law to them. If they reject you, then I reject them. *he again was speaking not only to her, but also himself* I have sought out the permission of your family for such things. Your brother Darkest Light, and your mother as well. They both approved of this.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:25:57 AM)
It is customary in our tribe to claim a mate without their concent.. but I do wish of that as well.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:27:52 AM)
*it was about that time she looked down at the ring. It was not what she had expected. It looked old, not purchased antique old but passed down a line of families old. It was brilliantly beautiful. She did not dare pick it up yet. She looked at the ring in the palm of his hand then up to his eyes. * I didn’t know. I am sorry…I am sorry I overreacted with the hair thing. I never thought of anything like that. I just did not think it was…this. *She took down a breath like she was just letting that sink in for a bit* “They all knew? Me? Though? I thought this was a game. Is it?”

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:29:49 AM)
*of course he knew this was just yet a part of his bigger plan. But he couldn't have her arguing with him about what a ward can do.. and what they can't do. As a Mate she had much more priviledges Such as knowing the rest of his plan* If it were a game Would i, a hidden moon of the lords, have been stumbling over my own words here tonight?

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:32:04 AM)
I cannot accept a ward that holds me down from my duties as a garou and as a Lord, However I will gladly accept a mate that lifts me up to aid in such dutied.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:34:02 AM)
That is the thing. You can never tell with a new moon. I just can't really put my head around that. She took his hand that was open holding the ring. She carefuly closed it around the ring once more to hide it* "I never wish to hold you down. I understand why you asked me to do what you did. I have learned a lesson today. I know now you will not ask me to do anythin that is not for my own best intrest or that of the tribe. But I can't accept until you parents accpet me. It is not fair to them. I will do what I must.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:35:44 AM)
And if I say their opinions do not matter?

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:36:19 AM)
Then I would think you not telling me the truth. That is your family.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:38:33 AM)
*he grabs his cell phone ready to call his mother and father* I can easly prove that the truth. I can easily tell them their oppinions on who I choose as a mate is not theirs but my own. To have them except you for who you are. Beautiful scarlet hair and all. Ahd give them no alternative.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:38:59 AM)
Right here in front of you.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:39:50 AM)
Or we can go meet them here and now.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:40:22 AM)
Vincent. Please, don't do that. I don't want you to be on bad terms with your family. I don't want to meet them like that. Just be patience. *OMFG did she just say that?*

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:41:29 AM)
Trust me, my mother has been asking about you more than anything. She already loves and accepts you and has even asked me if you are expecting yet.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:41:55 AM)
and even if my father does not approve tonight.. he will eventually.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:42:31 AM)
Expecting? Expecting what? *She thought for a second then blinked once* You, did tell her that we had not even kissed yet didn't you?"

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:43:06 AM)
Lets just wait it out a bit. I would rather spend the time with you than anyone else. I am a selfish girl I know.

Steven Vincent (Jul 14, 2010 2:43:42 AM)
I have only told her that i have found a potential mate.. She has been wanting grandchildren for years now.

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:45:27 AM)
If she only knew how many girls I had. *She said with a soft smirk ot her self. The very idea of it though made her feel a litle overwhelmed. But at lest she was accpeted by her already*

Cosette Alder (Jul 14, 2010 2:47:13 AM)
