Kallen smiles at his attempts.
"There is too much pain for you to shut out Iivari. I have a better idea. Come lean back with me and tell me about your origins. Tell me about being part tree. I bet it is wonderful to be so in tune with nature. To actually be a part of that."
She pulls him gently hoping he would lean back beside of her. She merely wishes to feel comfort and he was doing that right now. She wanted to know that things would be ok. She missed Maeda...no...she missed the attention and the feelings. She needed to find something with someone who was equal to her and did not treat her as a trophy.
"Tell me Iivari...you said you were a virgin and had never been in love. But do you have to find another like you? Or can you be with whomever you want? I want to know all i can about your kind."
Her hand moved back to his arm and she layed on her side looking at him.

"Yes, good then. We're going to Helsinki." He said, giving no other explaination and escorting him outside, where his teleportation was of more use. He grips the boy's shoulder and concentrates on Helsinki.
The city is in ruins, rubble abounds and there is bits of pink smoke in the air.
"My mission here is to find out the source of this explosion, Liang. I think I know why it happened, but Violet wants to know for sure. Your here because I may need to discuss Zwei if I am indeed right about this." He said, keeping his voice low and to Liang's ears alone.

Bassarov senses that something might be wrong with Mischa.
"Maybe we should check on Mischa. I thought he was just with us a bit ago but now he seems to be gone."

I nod.
"I will do whatever you need of me. This devestation is terrible, I agree we must investigate."

"What? Oh nuts!" I run down into the metro, weapon drawn. Several minutes later I come back up, exhasperated. "He's gone. I mean... I'd know if he was here..." I stutter this part. Because Misha is close to Bassarov, and I am close to Bassarov, I can feel Misha's presense... And I don't feel it.

Post by Dante "the Vulture" on Oct 10, 2004 3:17:07 GMT -5
Dante stared at the thing on the floor of his room. Cass' weapon, the one she'd cut herself with. He wanted to destroy it, like he would destroy his memories of her. She wasn't his Sex Muffin anymore, she hated him now, and no matter how much he would try and love her, it wouldn't help. So, if he could not love Cassinda, then he would regard her as another operative, no one special at all. But, he would give her this back.
He picked up the weapon and walked to her room door. He looked at it, and raged suddenly welled up inside of him. He yelled in fury and hurlled the dagger ((or whatever it was)) at the door. It made a soild thunk and imbedded itself six inches into the door.
He stood outside her door for a little bit longer, then turned, and slowly, ever so slowly, walked away.

"My mother was a human and my father was a birch tree. To unite the village with nature, my mother was married to a tree. It is not uncommon for in some cultures to be married to inanimate objects such as rivers, rocks and trees" He explains.
"But she was very sad, since a tree can not move or express its love for others, at least not in a human way. So she prayed to Meilikki and Tapio, the goddess and god of nature. They brought the tree to life, and gave it human form."
He leans back with her and feels much more comfortable.
"There are no laws against pagan priests having sex or relationships, since those rules are the invention of the monotheistic religions. I simply choose to live this life since my true love is nature. I am married to the forest."

The girl stares at the door. "Um.. I'll get it for you! My name is Kasumi by the way.. Kasumi "The Starling"!" Kasumi, as she had called herself, stands up and opens the door. She pulls the dagger from the door with some effort and runs back into Cass's room, holding the dagger out to her.
Before she runs back into the room through, she shoots a glare toward Dante who was walking away, down the hall. "Here you go! It was rather hard to pull out but I think it's still fine. Then again, of course it is."

Bassarov starts to panic over his comrade.
"Could someone have captured him? It is not like him just to run off." (unless confronted with an emotional situation he doesnt want to deal with) Bassarov thinks.

((I am off to bed now...goodnight everyone...goodnight Iivari))
Kallens bites her lip and crosses her arms across her chest. She looks as if she is hugging herself. As if she were cold. She is still on her side.
"Ah then you are married. Like your mother was. Only to nature? Or do you mean it may as well be?"
She had tried to hide her dissapointment but it flowed from her lips heavy in the words that she spoke. Trying to keep him from seeing her dissapointment she continued.
"Iivari you are half birch and human. So which form do you prefer? And what happened to your parents if i may ask?"
She moved a bit closer making her body touch his slightly hoping that he had meant the marriage thing as a metaphor and not that he was married. She was beginning to like him and wondered what he was like.

I put my hands on Bassarov's shoulders. "Don't panic. I'll find him. I promise." I let him go. "We do need him. You need him... More than you need me." I turn around, and start to walk towards the base. "Now, who would want to take Misha?"

Bassarov splits off from Zero and walks off to the ruins of Mischa's apartment.
His friend is not there.
He sits on the remains of Mischa's tacky sofa and puts his hand through his hair in worry.

Iivari laughs lightly.
"No, I am not litterally married to nature. Those sort of marriages aren't sanctioned by the government anyway..."
He smiles and relaxes a bit more.
"Relationships are something new to me or odd to me. I am not quite human. I think of myself as more plant than anything else. I don't react the same way to the things humans do."

I begin to search frantically, and start chain smoking from the stress. I eventually find Bassarov again. "Nothing... d**n it, NOTHING!" I practially throw myself down onto the couch and bury my head in my hands. I don't have a clue where else to look, and the frustration is rapidly growing past my ability to handle it.

"Let's just head back to the base then. We can spend the night there. It is getting late and we won't be able to do much for the city or for Mischa tonight." Bassarov stands up and looks out at the vast ruin.
