1 x 1 with Spirit

[Boomer]

OOC: Ah, true. Maybe he, uh... wanders into the garden via hidden passage? I dunno. x3
BIC:
Alessa slightly lowered her ears, now worried that Ryna would tell Maksim. "I... n-no." she lied, doing her best to look like she was being truthful. Alessa wasn't a very good liar. She didn't want Maksim to find out; she feared he'd destroy the letter and possibly punish her for reaching out to her family.

[Spiritstar3]

ooc: XP. hmm...could work, lol
BIC:
Ryna shook her head when Alessa said no, knowing she was lying even though she was looking at the nail she was painting. “It’s not like it’s a bad thing...You’re just going to tell them you’re safe and fed, right?” she asked, still painting.

Roman continued to hum softly.

Arka tilted her head as she looked at them.

Anya said she didn’t have any...They moved on to Ryna’s room, searching where baby clothes would be. Nothing...


Avalon and co at hotel

[Boomer]

Alessa found herself going silent about the question. She had wanted to tell them where she was so they could send help. Alessa doubted that she could send the letter with a return address. The silence answered Ryna's question. Alessa looked away from the others, guilt written all over her face.

[Spiritstar3]

(ooc: lol, i keep wondering why you keep writing her trying to escape or find help, bc i thought you wanted her to become a princess. no offense to you, though))
BIC:
Max asked if he could go for a walk. Jessica didn’t want him to go alone...however, Avalon made her let him.

Ryna sighed softly shaking her head...She perked her ears as Arka huffed, flicking her tail. She could hear Roman shuffle around a moment, and looked at him. Well, Alessa couldn’t put an address where she was, because she didn’t know the address, Ryna knew. She finished the last nail, then said “I need to do your hair...”

Arka huffed.

Roman shuffled a bit.

Maksim, Winston and Akira went to Leoo and mum’s room.

[Boomer]

OOC: Ah, she doesn't want to be a princess; she wants to get back to her family. But Alessa's got no idea how to do that.
BIC:
Alessa looked towards Arka and Roman, wincing quietly. "P-please d-don't tell Maksim." she begged, "I-I w-won't tell them where I am. T-they deserve to k-know I'm okay, d-don't they?" Alessa then looked to Ryna, shutting her eyes tightly. "I-if you p-promise not to tell Maksim, I'll l-let you cut my hair as short as you want." she said. Of course that frightened the girl, but Alessa really wanted to tell her siblings she was okay. Alessa had been told by Cybil that phone calls could be traced to where the person was at, so she doubted that Maksim would let her call them.

[Spiritstar3]

[ooc: yeah. how far can calls be traced, though?]
BIC:
Max smiled at Avalon, thankful to be allowed independence to walk alone. Well, maybe that’d be better done back in America...Anyhow, he left and started walking.

Ryna sighed again, shaking her head. She said “I said I wouldn’t, if you’re just telling them you’re fine. I’ll trust you...” she said, glancing to the other two pups a moment. She let out a breath, rather than sighing again. Her eyes moved back to Alessa, shaking her head once more. “And I already said I won’t cut it too short. The knots may not even be too deep.” she said.

Arka shook her head a bit.

Roman tilted his head as he glanced to Alessa. He just as quickly looked away again...He glanced to his mother a moment too.

Maksim, Winston and Akira went to Leoo and mum’s room. Maksim spoke to her.

[Boomer]

OOC: Dunno, but Cybil isn't an expect. Alessa just kinda has to take her information at face value.
BIC:
Alessa looked over to Roman and Arka, noticing how silent they were. She winced a little as she dug her claws into the chair. "F-forget about it, I w-won't do it." she told them. Alessa wasn't going to risk getting into trouble. Alessa felt her paws quiver as she sat there, realizing she made a huge mistake. Alessa took a shaky breath. "T-they're deep." she confirmed, "Maria said so... s-she does that s-stuff for a living."

[Spiritstar3]

ooc: lol. i’m getting off until i can charge this thing...)
BIC:
Max skipped and ran down the streets. He came upon a door in a strange looking...tunnel?

Ryna sighed softly, shaking her head...She glanced to the pups, then sighed again, motioning Roman to...well, she wanted him to go to his room, but stopped her paw, unsure...She glanced to the pup again, nearly huffing herself but she didn’t. “Well...you said earlier I could untangle them with my paws, but...is the answer still yes? I don’t want to have to cut too short...” she trailed off.

Roman continued to hum softly.

Arka huffed, staring at her feet...

Maksim, Winston and Akira went to Leoo and mum’s room. Maksim spoke to her.

[Boomer]

OOC: Aw, okay.
BIC:
"W-whatever is easiest and the least painful." she answered. Alessa had tried earlier to use Ryna's method, but she couldn't get them untangled. The knotting had been allowed to get worse for months. Alessa simply didn't want to anger Ryna at this point.

[Spiritstar3]

ooc: plugged in, might get off again until...like, midnight))
BIC:
Ryna hummed as she nodded at the black haired white pup. She said “Okay. I’ll be gentle.” and had Alessa place this paw in her lap too. The polish on those nails needed to dry too. SHe moved to where was easiest to touch her hair, gently starting on one clump of hair.

Max shrugged, pulling open the loudly creaky door and slipping inside. He could just barely see in here...

Roman and Arka stood by.

Maksim had asked her if she had leftover baby clothes. She’d pulled out a box.
