One X One with Honorable Villain & Vespertina

[Theodore Adams]

"Hey! Don't you go taking all my Caprisun!" Alex told Damian. "It's the only unhealthy drink left in the house, so you get one, and the rest are mine!" She crossed er arms and sighed as she turned back to Ryu. Then she smiled softly. "Well, since the sole purpose of my ability to speak with the dead is so I can offer them help when needed, I figured you, being...well, dead, might need my help if you were still hanging around. The thing is, if that family is moving out of their house, it means another one is moving in. So you wouldn't be alone for long. I thought the best thing to do would be to bring you back here while I had the chance, then I could help you whenever I had the time instead of going to te neighbors' and asking them if I could have a moment in their attic to speak with the household ghoul." She smirked at him. "Besides, you'll like it here. I'm not all that bad. I will have to ask you about some stuff, though. Like your family, your life... But you can explore the house first, if you want to."

[Honourable Villain]

Damian smiled and was tempted but he limited himself to the single one in his hand. "Yeah, yeah, I hear ya." He answered and poked the straw into the silver pouch as he stepped out of the kitchen. Taking a small sip, he glanced over towards the empty space Alex was talking to and still didn't understand how she could see this Ryu. But if Alex said he was there then he is. Damian isn't big into beliefs and all that good stuff but he took things to a certain extent.

Ryu took in Alex's words and then looked at the staircase. He frowned a bit when she said another family might move into the house after the current ones leave. It was a fact he already knew but it was a spur of the moment and he didn't know what else to do. "I'll try to answer to the best of my knowledge but I doubt I'll be able to remember important things." Ryu replied before walking over to peer into the kitchen, dodging Damian as the boy stood in the middle of the doorway. "I can tell he can't see me but can he hear me too?" Ryu asked before stepping away from Damian as he looked over his shoulder.

"Did he just touch me or is it just cold?" Damian sighed and couldn't help but shiver as Ryu passed him. "I don't know if you're listening but please, don't touch me or mess with me. It's no fair."

"Girls, girls, don't fight," Alex said. "Damian, I'm pretty sure he just walked past you. Okay, so I've never had a friend and a ghost over at the same time, so I have no idea how this is gonna go. Bare with me, 'kay? Ryu... Well... Let's all go up to my room and talk. This is gonna be one awkward day."

[Honourable Villain]

"You've got that right," Damian replied and took another sip from his Caprisun. He didn't hesitate to take his free hand and run his fingers through his red hair before going up the staircase to Alex's room. His green eyes flickered over towards the Wii remote he had earlier but he only moved it over so he could sit on the edge of Alex's bed. "So what? Ryu is gonna be your invisiable roommate or something? What will your mother say.." He teased.

Ryu had an amused glint in his grey eyes hearing both of the reactions from Damian and Alex both but he remained where he was for a moment to look around the kitchen some more before heading for the stairs. Seeing where Damian went, Ryu kept going to look into the other rooms.

Alex swatted his shoulder. "We've got a big house," she said, "Ryo can find somewhere other than my room to hang out. Heck, he could haunt the kitchen if he wanted to. As long as he doesn't break mom's china." Alex shivered. "That was a bad day for me... Word of advice, Damian. When you're dealing with a ghost plauged with anger management issues, don't keep it in your house, and stay in a public area when you talk to it. That way, someone can call the ambulance right away if something happens."

[Honourable Villain]

Damian blinked when she said Ryu could haunt the kitchen. "Okay now that's just cruel," He muttered and then smiled a bit when Alex finished having her say. "You brought an angry ghost here? That's a bummer." He chuckled and then glanced at the door as it moved on it's own, a chill went down his spine shortly after. "Alright now that's just down right creepy."

Ryu tilted his head a bit as he entered Alex's room. "I'll just stay upstairs if that's alright, I won't bug anyone." He said lightly and then watched Damian with amusement.

[Theodore Adams]

Alex chuckled under her breath. Then she turned when she heard Ryo. "Oh, that's perfectly fine, Ryo. You hang around wherever you want to. As long as you're not in my room while I'm changing or sleeping. That would be weird for me. Other than that, make yourself at home."
She smiled warmly at Ryu. He was pretty cute. She wondered how exactly he had died. An overdose was her first guess; that was a fairly common cause of death for kids of his agegroup. That and suicide. And car crashes. Gosh, teenagers have tough lives.
"Damian, you don't have to be home anytime soon, do you?" she asked.

[Honourable Villain]

Damian eyed Alex and shook his head. "Like I even care, he's probably up and over his head in problems and I'm just another one. But if you want me to leave, I'll go so you two can have a nice conversation without me." He replied with a slight smile. He was almost finished with his Caprisun but he took his time since Alex did say it was his last and only one.

Ryu nodded a bit in reply understanding that Alex wanted her privacy. With a few seconds of hesitation, he glanced over Alex's room before walking over to sit in an empty chair near her desk. Curiousity struck him as he looked around but he leaned away from the desk and exchanged glanced between Damian and Alex herself. "Is he like your boyfriend or something?" He questioned. They didn't seem like it but Ryu figured he could be wrong.

[Theodore Adams]

"No, are you kidding?" Alex replied to Damian's offer. "You're staying as long as you want to. It's just going to be interesting in here, what with the fact that you can't hear him. What, Ryu? Oh. Uuhmm..."
Alex gave Damian a sideways glance. Lots of people assumed that he was her boyfriend because they hung out so much. They weren't, really. Just good friends.
"No," Alex told him. "No, he's more like a brother. A brother that I happen to be going to the dance with. Ew. No. He's my best friend, not my brother."

[Honourable Villain]

Damian rolled his shoulders and the answer he got from Alex. He didn't mind staying here longer than he usually would but things were getting a bit heavy at home so why not stay out for a little bit longer. Damian blinked when Alex answered again but he then figured it was Ryu who asked. The boy sighed and lied down on his back shortly after. "Yeah, that would be kind of awkward asking your own brother to go to a dance." He said and didn't want to know what it was like to do such a thing. "Ugh, that means I have to wear something nice."

Ryu tilted his head a bit at Damian, it became a bit clear on why he's been acting this way. "Just asking," He shrugged and corssed his arms as he leaned back into the chair. Ryu found himself asking a lot of questions in such short amount of time so he was going to keep himself quiet for awhile. It was easy to tell he still felt out of place but this was better than being in the situation he was in half an hour ago.
