Brianna shrugged, "He's insecure about his weight and no one can convince him he's not fat. I've tried myself, but once a habit always a habit".

Colin blushed, reprimanded. Still, it did make a pretty bad story. Um, not to insult you or anything, it's just not exactly my type of book, he thought, realizing that Edward could hear his thoughts.
Leah, meanwhile, had finished eating. "Hey, thanks for the meal!" she called to Esme, throwing a winning grin at Edward, who growled. "Man, I ought to eat here more often!" She remarked, leaving the house and still grinning.

Renesmee just smiled at Mana. The scary one-eyed man didn't frighten her. After all, she generally did get what she wanted. Tyler the cute little boy with the exotic smell, and Shane the little kid with the accent. She would have them both by the end of the night, she was assured of that. She smiled at Tyler again. The fear in his eyes would pass. He would get used to her and become entranced. In the mean time.
"So, Shane." she turned to the other boy quickly, "I see you're enjoying yourself."
Shane nodded, still with a mouth full of food, "We don't get meals like this in Matria."
"I can imagine not." she said, "With how skinny you and your father are. It must be dreadful." she touched the boy's hands lightly. Shane shivered a little.
"Um... I'm ah..." Shane swallowed, looking a little uncomfortable.
"Who are you rooming with tonight?"
Shane bit his lip, "Um.." he looked around, "Well I..."
Ratio had already comandeered his father for the night, and Tyler had paired himself with Mana. Shane sighed, "I.. I don't really know." he admitted.
Renesmee grinned as her voice echoed in Shane's head. You want to room with me.

"He's staying with us," Colin interjected quickly, not thinking enough to realize that this would mean four people sharing a room. "With Joselyn and me. So we can, uh, help teach him to read better."

Brandon stared at Leah as she walked out for a moment. "What's up? Something about her bugging you, Bran?" Twili asked. "Not bugging me...reminding me." Brandon said, beginning to whisper to Twili. "I think she's the only one I'm gonna be able to tolerate, since I saw a hint of Brianna in her." "Oh, I see. Maybe you're right." Twili replied as Brandon turned around to Shane. "Colin's right, you should go with him. A night of reading could do you wonders, Shane." Brandon quickly said. Cause if you-know-who was here, Ren would be in...well, "time out."

"Come to think of it, Bran, you're right. She's the only one I could stand when I got here, and the only one I think I can stand ever", Brianna noted.
Bella looked over at Edward, "They're talking about us...what should we do?"
Tristan reached into his cloak and pulled out a copy of a nigh-pocket-sized book of Greek and Roman legends. He passed it over to Colin. "Maybe this will help too. It's a hell of a lot better than Twilight and it's very informative."
DJ just stared at Tristan, "Who carries around a book like that?"

"Someone who's smart." Sky answered, having actually eaten. "Someone's gonna be naming Personas all night long, won't he?" Brandon teased.

Tristan grinned, "Brienne and Sky are like Eurydice and Orpheus, as Sky had once said to her". This made Brianna spit out her food in a loud laugh, she tried to catch her breath.
DJ rolled his eyes and wiped the puke from the corner of his mouth, "The Ravenquists are just like kids".

Sakura nodded. "I see. Maybe it's a control thing, too. The poor guy, I wish there was something we could do." She looked over at Wyatt. "Hi, Wyatt. Long time, no see. I got separated from my family and was trying to find you guys. Hana and Mother helped me." She scratched Hana behind her ears and leaned close to Ratio. "That's the story you told us." Gingkyo smiled at Tyler and Mana. "You two can room with us, if you want." Mitsutaka sighed. "Gingkyo..." "What? I know you don't like co-ed sleeping arrangements, but the red-head lady is creepy. I think there may be safety in numbers." She said around some mashed potatoes. "Good point, sweetie. It's up to them, though. And don't talk with your mouth full. It's a choking hazard."
"Why aren't you eating?" Rosalie hissed. "Afraid of getting fat?" "I get full very quickly, so I like to pace myself when I eat." Sakura told her, swallowing some chicken. "Besides, I go on free runs at least once a week to keep skills sharp." "You do know black cats are bad luck, right?" Her gold eyes trailed to the kitten. "They say they're evil." "Maybe in the US, but in Japan black cats are lucky. They ward off evil." Sakura held up the kitten as she mewed. "Look at that face and tell me how she's evil." Hana mewed as if on cue. "Sakura, put Hana back down and go wash your hands. Esme, would you show her to the kitchen?" "Yes, Father." Sakura nodded and got up.

DJ looked at Sakura, "Look at me...I'm....I'm hideous". His brown eyes widened, and his face, although cute, had a pleading look to it.

"Oh, you are not. Come here." Sakura hugged DJ. "I think you're adorable. Who deceived you so horribly?"

Post by Brianna Ravenquist on Jun 16, 2011 13:57:56 GMT -8
DJ hugged Sakura, "I've not been deceived. I see it every day in the mirror. Well, sometimes I see that I'm skinny, but I'm scared that I'll gain back all the weight I'd lost. I try to eat, but it all comes back".
"Believe it or not, Sakura, that's an improvement", Brianna said, "He used to just see himself as fat and never skinny".

Sakura nodded. "It truly is an improvement." She turned to DJ. "It'll be all right. If you would like, I can take you for Japanese food. It's low-calorie, the chopsticks make it hard to gorge and the only thing you need to worry about is salt." She inwardly winced, hoping to the gods she didn't upset him.

"It's very nice to meet you, DJ." Sakura smiled at him. "My name is Sakura Iwato. The little girl is my sister, Gingkyo," Gingkyo waved in a very hyper manner. "My parents are right there," Both waved at him. "And my friend, Masayugi, is rooming with Tristan and Joselyn for the night." Masayugi smiled and waved politely.

((I think you mean Colin and Joselyn...) Edward turned to his wife. "Don't worry, love," he said. "If they start talking badly about us, we can always ask them to leave."
Colin, meanwhile, had snatched the mythology book and was paging through it, just as enraptured as he had been with the food (if not more so). "Where did you get this? It's amazing!" he said, green beans and chicken forgotten.
Leah walked through the woods, enjoying the rare solitude. It was so nice to be in her human form, when her mind was her own and she didn't have to hear those idiot guys going on about their "true loves." Imprinting disgusted her. And not just because of Sam and Emily. The idea of being a slave to an emotion you had no choice in having sounded simply awful. Don't think about that now, Leah, she told herself. You're out in the woods. It's a beautiful evening. Go pick flowers or something. As she thought it, she noticed a patch of daisies nearby. Happily, she sat down in the middle of it and began to make a daisy chain.

"Oh.. um..." Shane blinked, staring at Colin. He was surprised at how fast the boy had jumped in, "Well, I... I don't see why not."
Renesemee frowned a bit, looking a little disappointed.
"Well," she looked up, "You don't mind if I keep you company, do you? There are never young people around the house and.. well... sometimes I like to be with people my own age."
Shane looked about, flustered, "Ah.. I.. Renesmee I don't think..."
He stopped himself. Wait... he frowned, How.. how do I know her name?
"I'm sorry.." Shane stammered, "I mean.. I... I didn't..."
"It's alright." Renesmee smiled, "You never told me your name anyway."
"Ah..." Shane swallowed hard, "That's um... that's alright." he chuckled nervously, "I mean, not.. not that I... I mean.. you were just... I'm Shane."
Renesmee grinned, "Hi Shane." she giggled, "And who's your friend." she glanced over at Tyler, batting her eyes.

Joselyn glared at the girl. "You know Col and I are about nine years older than you, right?" she asked. "And I don't know if you'd exactly be conductive to Shane's reading lessons."
Edward shot a glance at the girl. "I see nothing wrong with her spending some time with you," he said, an edge in his voice.
"Fine," said Joselyn, "But she can't sleep there. The room will be crowded as it is."

DJ smiled, "Nice to meet you. I have siblings myself; an older brother Frank, a sister named Rowan, three more brothers named Richard, Zeke and Tadashi, and another sister named Sora".
Tristan shrugged, "My sister had it, but she lent it to me".
Brianna shot a glare at Tristan, "You took it! That's MINE!"
Bella nodded, "What about those two arguing over there? You know, the twin girl and boy?"

Sakura's eyes went wide. "Oh my. It's mostly Gingkyo and I and she's plenty. I love her, but we used to go through more sitters in a month than people would change their underwear. Because I'm older, I have to watch her when mother and father are working."

Sakura nodded. "I don't think I could handle more than one Ging, lest I go gray faster than Blondie." "Hey!" Both Rosalie and Gingkyo yelled in unison. "What? A lady doesn't lie." "A lady also doesn't make it a habit of getting filthy in the woods." "Well, I'm more of one than you, if you want to go into it." Sakura flicked her hair as she spoke.

"It's not necessarily a bad thing to NOT be much of a lady though. Brienne isn't, and she's the leader of a brotherhood", DJ said.

"You have a point there." Sakura nodded to DJ. "I don't know that many ladies that can survive well enough in the woods. Besides, Blondie was giving me the evil eye, even though I was covered in dirt when she first saw me, which kind of says something." "Rosalie! My name is Rosalie, not 'Brondie'!" She fumed, mocking Sakura's accent at the word 'blondie'. "Mocking how I speak? Really?" Sakura said. "Are you that stunted you can't think of anything else? At least my accent is cute." "Says who?!" "Says half my old students and a few other teachers!"

"Knock it off, what's your face", DJ spat at Rosalie, "You're being a racist cunt".
"DJ! Do you want to get sucked of your blood?" Brianna glared.

"Thank you, DJ, but Brianna's right. As unoriginal as she is, she could probably still hurt you." Sakura gently told DJ. "Besides, I've heard a good range of comments about my accent." "Really? She keeps calling me Blondie and I'm racist and unoriginal?" "In a word, yes."

"Sorry to break it to you, but 'blonde' is not a race", Brianna glared.
"Pot calling the kettle black", Tristan mumbled.

"You do not insult my family!" snarled Edward. "You can either keep your comments to yourself or leave." He and Rosalie didn't get along, but he still wasn't going to allow humans to insult her.

"She started it." Sakura huffed. "Besides, I didn't know her name." Another hair flick, before she said "And I'll find my own way to the kitchen to wash. I think it may be best if we stay away from each other for a few seconds. Otherwise, I can't be held responsible for any running make-up. Hana, track food smells." The kitten moved in front of her, licking her maw as she sniffed. After a few moments, she bounded to a door and sat down, meowing and flicking her tail. Sakura opened the door, seeing a gigantic kitchen. "Good girl, Hana." She stroked the kitten's ears, chin and head. As soon as she was behind the door, the kitten went back to the plate of chicken.
"Tracking. That's a new one." Was all Keiko could say. "Though it makes sense. She's no basset hound, but her nose is still stronger than any human and probably a vampire." "Even I didn't know about that one." Masayugi murmured before he continued to eat.

Edward sighed and rubbed his temples. "Rosalie, how about you go out for a bit? Just until our, erm, guests get settled in. You could go hunting."
