1x1 w/ Anna and Echo

"Well, you should have thought of that before the ifrit left," she snapped, tired of hearing her cries. "Call Ricky. See how he's doing. Maybe he's sane enough to help." She sat down, rocking the baby in her arms. "She's knows we're not her parents," she muttered. "She'd probably call down if he held her."

Fade closed his eyes, trying not to go over to Ricky's house. He didn't want to talk to him, but he felt the urge to go over. If the child was his, why wasn't he taking care of it? He shook his head, walking away from the house. That wasn't his problem. He needed to forget about these people.

Jace relaxed against him, feeling his calm affect Jace. "Thank you," he whispered, wrapping his arms around him. He needed this.

Circe bit her lip but obeyed, calling Ricky as she walked off to a different room so she could try to focus. She returned a while later, her eyes red from trying not to cry again. She sat beside kailor and looked at VIzzie worriedly. "He says he is on his way." She muttered quietly.

Alex nodded and softly kissed the side of his head. "So what have you been up to lately?" he asked quietly, trying to distract Jace from his thoughts.

DO we want Eira to have stayed with Fade or to have wandered off?)

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Kailor nodded a bit, hugging Vizzie close. She closed her eyes, trying to block out the baby's crying.

"20 meters of steel frame," he answered tiredly. "And higher, unfortunately. Not that I hate my job."

OOC: Which ever one :3

[AnnaCat17]

Circe looked up as she heard a soft knock at the door before watching Ricky slip into the house. He looked grey and his hair stuck to his forehead as he looked blankly about him. His eyes darted quickly down to Vizzie in Kailor's lap before rolling his eyes slightly. "You two should never become parents."

CIrce returned his eye roll before resuming watching him worriedly. "Please help us."

Alex watched him sadly. "What have you been doing for fun? Have you been seeing anyone?"

Im thinking maybe after a few montgs she wandered off without warning)

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Kailor didn't say anything, but held Vizzie out to Ricky. She didn't know whether he'd hurt her, but they needed his help. Besides, if he was here, he was willing to help.

"Fun?" He tucked his head under Alex's. "Don't want to see anyone," he mumbled.

OOC: Works for me. :3

[AnnaCat17]

Ricky sighed but walked over and sat on the floor infront of circe and kailor. He carefully took vizzie and as she settled down in his arms his heart tried to destroy itself as he realized how much she looked like saige. "I still dont want her." He muttered to circe and kailor but continued to lull vizzie off to sleep.

Alex held him closer and closed his eyes. "That's ok. You dont have to." He muttered back as he tried not to wonder if that included him.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Kailor relaxed when Vizzie calmed down. "We need help taking care of her," she said gently. "Besides, I'm certain she would have wanted you to take care of your child."

Jace relaxed in his arms, letting himself feel a tiny bit better. He rested his head on his chest, listening to his calm heartbeat.

Fade slipped into the hotel room, his heart lifting a bit as he went in. Then it dropped as he saw it empty. He couldn't help but hope Eira had come back, but she hadn't. He had went to the club a few times, hoping he would see her there, but she never showed. So he stopped going, since he hated that place anyways. He felt hurt that she had left, but he didn't blame her for leaving. He was only keeping her from doing what she wanted. He gathered his things, ready to leave the hotel. He knew better than to hold on to his feelings for her. His expression dark and cold, he left the hotel.

Ricky closed his eyes to hide the fact he was close to tears. "Kailor... I cant. She looks too much like her." He muttered as he finally got vizzie to eat.

Alex continued to hold him, allowing the silence to comfort them both for a while before speaking again. "Ill find out from ricky when the funeral is and if you want i will go with you."

Eira stepped off the bus and looked around the town she had left months prior. Part of her hoped to run into Fade but she realized he had most likely left. That was probably for the best. She was too much of a mess anyways. She began to walk through town and looking about at the people who milled about, chatting and shopping happily.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

"She's the only thing you have left of her," she said gently. "She's your only connection to your wife. It'll hurt, there's no doubt about that, but your daughter needs at least one of her parents." She sighed, sitting down on the chair. "Do you really want her to end up like Fade? That kid's a mess."

Jace tensed up at the mention of the funeral. "I... don't know." He couldn't think about that right now. He needed to get his mind off of it. He gripped Alex tighter, resting his forehead against Alex's chest.

Fade walked around through town, ignoring the humans around him. They were just annoying. He fiddled with the ring on his finger, hating how he had to hide in front of everyone.

[AnnaCat17]

Ricky rolled his eyes and shot a glare at her. "Fade is a good kid. He is just lonely amd has trust issues like rest if us." He looked sadly at vizzie. He knew it wasnt right to force her on Circe and kailor and so even though he hated the sight of her he knew he had to take her. "Fine..."

Alex softly kissed the top of his head. "Thats ok. Ill handle it."

Eira stopped as she spotted Fade across the street. A grin quickly stretched across her as she waved in his direction. "Fade!" She yelled to him before running into the street towards him, not checking for traffic.
