"I think you are pretty...and kind...I suppose you are the kind of person I would like to know better....which is why I am here." He smiles meekly

"For a tree and someone who does not understand human ways you sure know how to flatter a girl."
Kallen blushes deeply and reaches up to touch his hair.
"You have very nice hair Ivari. Its unique. I am sorry if i am making you uncomfortable. I do not have very good people skills. I was alone for a very long time. And i would love to get to know you better. You intrigue me..."
She looks into his eyes. She does like him. But she will not use him as a rebound. She will not repeat herself. But he is quite nice.
Coyote was nice as well...his pranks were not so funny but she knew what to expect now. ANd she looked forward to pulling her own prank on him one day.

Iivari blushes and feels a little uncomfortable.
"Would you like to help me cremate the bodies of the farm couple? They may become rank if we let them be any longer." He says, changing the topic and getting off the bed.

Kallen wrinkles up her nose.
"Now i can tell you do not know much about people. They were once as we are. Please do not refer to them as if they are objects left too long in the fridge. Lets go and give them a proper burial though."
She too gets up and for once lets her hair go loose. It falls in brown waves down her back. She loosely ties it behind in a ponytail.
"Just let me grab my bag and we will commence the burial."
She moves to the door. She is a bit offset that he did not like her.
"And sorry about that. I didn't know you didn't like me. If i had i wouldn't have flirted so."
She turns and walks out the door leaving him behind.

"No it isn't like that. I just thought we ought to get things started. It is true that the longer we procrastinate the more they will decompose, so I meant it as no offense to them. I meant it as a statement that we should get to work"

Maybe he did like her afterall.
"Yes...the human body begins to decay immediately after death. A body can stay 'fresh' for about a week or so depending on the weather. But these people i saw alive. I saw them get assasinated. I vari we should not talk about them as if they were just people. They died because that angel jerk wanted to test me...and i failed. And in failing these people lost their lives. All they did was worship god. And even though i am a witch i sympathize with them greatly. Come on lets get to work."
She goes back to him, smiles sweetly, and grabs his hand leading him to where the couple lay. She takes gauze out of her back and releases his hand so she can begin to clean the bodies and wrap them for cremation.

Rhonwin wondered around letting the sword tip drag behind her making a line in the dirt. She then sighed and sheathed it before walking on. She kicked at some debris in the city of Helsinki. She had only entered it after she saw some zombies leaving and wondered if that's where Xiu had wondered off to. "XIU!! Where are you?! Dang... where is that girl?" the last said to herself. She seriously hopped Xiu had been able to care for herself. She was not about to get emotional and make a mockery of herself worrying over someone she thought of as a sister! But usually if she did, she'd get mad instead.... which she was right then. "XIU JUAN! You better get your ass over here so I don't have to find you myself! You just had to go into a city that was blown up recently and just had the dead rise to seek revenge on god-knows-what! What were you thinking!" She was letting out steam, mainly. If Xiu had heard any of that she would most likely appologize right away and offer to buy her something to eat. Even if money was starting to get low again... Rhonwin continued to stomp among the rubble in search of her friend.

"Hey," Coyote's face appears at the window, upside down. "What're you two doing? We have to try and keep hidden."
He sighs and drops to the ground, flipping rightside up as he does. "Well, not like it matters. The Godless would find us either way. But if their not here by now I don't think we have to worry about them anymore."

"We are simply going to send these bodies back to the earth. These good people need a proper burial. Would you like to help Coyote? I am afraid i won't be able to heft the bodies and help Iivari."
She continues to dress the wounds of the couple. Her hands touching the face of the woman or what was left of it. She died because of a derranged angel. Because of her. Because he wanted to trap her.
She closed her eyes as a few tears fell for the lives of these simple and kind people.

"Alright, I'll help you move the bodies." Coyote jumps through the window. "But where are you going to put them? Just in the middle of the lawn?" Coyote shifts and suddenly a large black bear is where he was. Without apparent effort the bear picks up the husband and lays him on it's back, then does the same with the wife. Turning towards the door the bear plods along, heading outside.

Kallen giggles even though she was feeling remorse. She goes behind Coyote signaling for Iivari to follow.
"Well not in the middle of the lawn. I was thinking we could go to where the barn use to be and do the ritual there. However perhaps cremation is not a good idea. The operatives would see the smoke and come back. Perhaps we should bury them. I mean no disrespect by suggesting this of course."
((Sorry to move you Iivari but i assume you would come out with us))

((considering the npc farm couple was killed about a week ago in real time and since then, days have passed in the rpg for other members of the Green Party, I assumed the couple was sitting in the house for at least a few days. rpg time is similar to real life time ))
"I would prefer cremation, since that seems the proper way to do things. It will release their souls faster so they can pass to Tounela then go on to Manala or Taivas." Iivari states
He is frustrated with Kallen since he only wanted to get to work and soon. He is not sure how long they have been dead but it seems to be at least several days.

((Yes but even so she was merely making an observation about the smoke from the fire...*gives innocent sweet smile*))
Kallen looks at Iivari. He looks a bit irked with her. Well she would comply to make him happy.
"Fine...fine Iivari. I am sure you know better of this."
She stomps off a bit to a clearing. She shakes her head in frustration. Men sure were intent on having things their own way.
"Coyote when i am done please put the bodies inside the circle I make."
Kallen draws the circle out on the ground. She moves her hands in a design and holds them upward. Then small flames come around the edges and flicker slightly. She would cremate them with her purified circle of flames.

Thomas yawned and woke up still in his cell.He walked over to the bars and he put his head through them so he could get a good look around.
He sighed when he saw nothing and returned to where he was sitting and he took the bandage off his arm.It was all scabbed up but it.He moaned just thinking of how much it had hurt earlier.
What was he doing in here anyway if there were not torturers to torture the less important rebels.

Xiu Juan sweatdrops at the sound, well yell, of Ronnie's voice. She gives the mermaid another hug and smile. "Thanks again! I gotta go find Ronnie, before she finds me and breaks my leg again."
She pats the mermaid on the shoulder and waves before running off. Since the city's leveled, it's kinda easy to find Ronnie. "Hey! I was lookin' for you! Got this rock off my leg a few minutes ago, some mermaid healed it for me. Broken it was I mind ya. Nice girl that mermaid."
Xiu Juan says, putting her left leg out. "See? Fine as fine can be! Not a cut on it, ne? Zombies got some bad deaths through. Mind ya', they did die in a explosion, sad thing too.." She says, in her irish accent. She kinda got used to talking with a irish accent around a irish family.
