*Ah... So Faedon had met him already and had taken a liking to him. That was interesting... But she'd wait to make her own assessment about him when he awoke. As she was tackled, she landed with an 'oof!' before gently pet Roku's head.* "I've missed you too. I see you can speak sentences now... How do you feel about that? Are you happy?" *She no longer shortened or abbreviated her sentences with her now that she had advanced this far.* "What did you decide to name him?" *Sitting up, she huggled the little Roku before moving over to inspect her coffin. The lining was good... It felt comfy... Faedon did a good job.* 

"Do you remember why I named you Roku?" *She felt like she had told this story a lot of times... Much like a mother would.* "Oh you were such a small little one... You didn't speak at all- now look at you, look how much you've grown" *She chuckled before sitting on the floor and pulling Roku onto her lap with her back agaisnt the coffin.* "I wasn't sure who you wanted to be, what you were like... You were as versitile as a chess piece... And there are six pieces in total you can play." *And Roku meant six. It seemed like so long ago now... She had come a long way.*

"Faedon my love... Perhaps you might be able to get some dinner from a tavern? Would you like me to come with you?" *The angel wasn't duento be awake until sunrise... So he could bring food back for him for when he awoke.*
Dawn
*Giggles as she snuggled into ai happily as she said if she was happy yes very much so and she was smarter then before.* `"Um... I am happy! Happy to be with ai."` *She nods her head up and down quickly as she was asked what did she name him, she was struggling to with different name's, she would think about it a bit more as she was about to speak, she stopped, as ai asked if she remembered why she was named Roku she nods as she curled up against ai like a child would gently clutching ai's dress as her fingers curled around ai's clothes.* `"Talking with Faedon I think uhh theias... Faedon say mean divine, divintry? Divinity? Don't know exactly..."` *She was still learning but she thought it was a good name and hoped for ai's approval.*
Joseph
*Finished washing his face, taking a towel and drying before coming back out* `"It would be nice to have my wife accompany me to retrieve some food, get to stretch your legs but stay here for a bit at least, just in case the angel wakes I feel that your better at um... Calming people then me I'll retrieve the food... Oh I learned something else... Roku right. It seems the more she eats brain's the more intelligent she gets. So I'm thinking... We should find more intelligent people for her to eat of course they'll be criminals and scum of the earth however it should exponentially increase her intelligence."` *He nods* `"To back track a little, yes roku theias means divinity I didn't give her the answer my love she was asking me questions about what angels could be considered as and when the word divinity came up she decided that would be his name."` *He didn't want to take the credit away from her as he smiles softly looking at them.* `"Now Roku don't give ai a hard time while I'm away"` *He kneels down and gently pets rokus head and kisses the top of her head then leaning down to kiss ai's cheek, the angels schedule may or may not have been ruined because they all sleep during day and wake at night...*
Brian
"Oh divinity?" *That was a pretty big word for her. Maybe it was time they put her in school... Like home schooling. She would find some curriculum books at the library in the sky. Just simple math, history, poetry, geography... She'd have to get her started on a regular schedule.* "Hm? More intelligent people?.." *Well there were plenty of corrupt congressmen, and Roku wasn't very picky unlike herself... She had no conditions that needed to be met.* "I suppose... But more intelligent people *Will* Be harder to catch or persuade... The smarter the food, the more clever the bait has to be.." *And that was a whole other thing.*

"I don't know love... It seems a bit risky-" *She smiled down at Roku and tickled her sides* "You thought of the name all by yourself?? Clever little Roku. It is a lovely name" *She'd give her some more huggles before looking up to Faedon. She smiled and nuzzled his cheek with hers as he pulled away.* "Be safe my love.." *Setting Roku to the side, she moved over to the table and sat down to fix herself some tea.* "What do you think Roku? What do you think about finding smarter people to eat?"
Joseph
`"It is a lot more risky... To find corrupt government officials... And could put a targets on us... Unless... We hire... A certain mercenary we have already been acquainted with to do it for us. For the right price anything is possible."` *He nodded but left quietly with a happy smile he enjoyed the peacefulness this city has brought them, it wasn't even the main city and it was still peaceful, he made his way over to the inn to get some food for him and the angel boy now named theias. There was a lot more to his plan to get intelligent people like corrupt political men or business men he didn't think on face value he had deeper means, and they would need something enticing to draw the person out anyway to even get the mercenary close enough to catch the target he would make a plan with ai when he returned.*
Dawn
*As her sides were tickled she burst into a fit of laughter almost rolling off of ai as she was sat down to the side she giggles catching her breath* `"Yes but uhh you said it will be hard how hard? What hmmmm idea could ai, and faedon come with to catch prey that's smart."` *She asked tilting her head, she turned her head away from ai as theias seemed to be stirring awake, she smiles softly and couldn't wait for ai to meet him and see how he was!*
Roslyn
*Was slowly waking up he had a troubled face just before he slowly opened his eyes, he yawns quietly trying his best to make no noises he covered his mouth gently, slowly leaning up, his hair fell across his face he looked around slowly and was scared at first he had ptsd that he was still in the cage and began to shake but when he realized he wasn't in the cage he slowly calmed down. His eyes looked innocent, and pure, not a hint of evil or any malice or anger behind them, his behavior was submissive, as he saw ai and Roku he slowly moved off the side of the bed and slowly began to get on his knees and bow his head quietly in respect before raising his head to look at ai and roku, his white wings spread wide before contracting making them closer and folding them close to his body. He slowly stood up and turned around as he began to make the bed quietly it was as if his footsteps had no sound and his movements were as quiet as a mouse but with ai's super hearing she could hear it without a problem, once the bed was done he lowered his head turning back to them with his eyes closed slightly trembling waiting for them to tell him something or for something he should do, ai would feel a calming presence around her roku would to as clutches his hands against his pants nervously.*
Brian
"Well... What do you think about school? I thought since your vocabulary was advancing you might want want to start learning other things and expanding-" *The angel was awake now? Why?* "Shouldn't your angel be asleep Roku? Why is he awake?" *Taking a sip of her tea, she would simply watch him go about his buisness before standing there. Just... Standing there trembling. Looking from Roku, back to him, then to Roku, she would just continue with what she was saying.* "In... Any case... We would home school you in a sense, and you would learn about many things. Math, economics, literature... I think you would really like story books... What do you think?"
Dawn
*Didn't know what was school at all so she titled her head to the side confused as she looked at ai placing a finger on her lips before speaking* `"I tried to get the angel to sleep during the night but it was hard as we sleep during the day it is hard to get him on schedule as Faedon also sleeps during the day."` *She looked to Theias trembling and spoke softly* `"Theias come here meet ai my uhh... Mom..."` *She says and looks down slightly embarssed* `"I'm sorry he's just not used to us yet. I would like to learn about all of those things!"` *She nods happily as theias came over quietly and she would bring him to sit down beside them she wanted to include him like ai included her in many things.*
Roslyn
*As he was asked to approach he comes over with his head bowed in a respect position as he speaks in a low voice* `"I'm theias... Thank you for allowing me to be in your presence."` *He tries his best to smile sweetly*
Brian
"Goodness... I suppose that would make it a little bit difficult... We really need the daywalkers to sleep during the time they're supposed to. If they don't, we'll never get anything we are needing to do in the daytime done.." *Markets, boutiques, shopping centers and bakerys were all daytime amenities. If they were all asleep, they wouldn't be able to get to certain things before they closed. Oh but what was this? Mom? She smiled with a very kind fondess as she set her teacup down on its saucer with a light clink.* 

"Ahh... So you're Theias. Tis'a pleasure. My name is Ai. Roku's mother. I trust she's been taking care of you with the utmost hospitality?" *Of course. She raised her that way.* "I appreciate your patience with her, she is learning many, many things and while our dietary habits might be crude and unusual to modern society I assure you it's nothing to be afraid of. Now then, would you like some tea?" *Vampires were those of high societal norms so her mannerisms were very distinct and elegant.* "Now, Roku, we'll be traveling to the sky library next. When your father gets back will you and Theias go to the night market- **Not** The black market. The night market, to retrieve some things you'll need? Pens, pencils, erasers, a side bag, four thin notebooks for your subjects- Theias. Can you read and write? Do you understand currency? I'd like for Roku to not get swindled. Will you be able to assist her?"
Dawn
`"How can we get them to sleep during the night... But if they sleep during the night... We will barely see them or spend anytime with them since the difference in sleeping."` *She nodded as that was her conclusion how would her mom and dad spend anytime together if by the time he was waking she was sleeping and vice versa? Same thing for her and theias. As she saw ai's sweet smile it made her blush embarssed she waited patiently for ai to be done speaking as she would stand slowly and think as she placed her hands behind her back rocking on her heel's happily* `"I will go the night market, promise, not black market."` *She giggled as she nodded, Pencils... Erasers... A side bag... Four notebooks...* `"Ok I think I got it..."` *She opened her notebook and began to write everything ai told her down best to her knowledge reciting it to herself over and over quietly until it was done.* `"Is there anything you want from night market?"` *She smiles softly as she walked back over to the angel* `"Is it ok that I keep a collar with steel chain on theias it helps me keep track of him. It will also help from anyone taking him from my side."` *She nodded as she looked at ai wondering if that was ok*
Roslyn
Editing message:
```*Raised his head up but still keeps it bowed slightly in a respectful manner* `"..."` *He was quiet as he listened to her intently as she spoke of all the things Roku would need he took a mental note he didn't need a book he had perfect memory.* `"Your daughter is nothing but kind to me."` *He spoke quietly with a kind soft voice* `"Your choice of diet doesn't frighten me... I wish only to be of service."` *He kept his head low as he was still shaking as she asked if he wanted tea he spoke again* `"I would love some tea."` *As she asked if he knew how to read and write he took a shaky scared breath* `"Yes ma'am, I certainly know how to read, write and count currency."` *He tried his best to be polite and well mannered as his hands remained infront of his lap shaking a bit he was terrified in his head he wondered what they would do even though they had been nice to him for 3 days and hadn't harmed, him he was terrified even though he lied, how could one not be terrified of watching people get eaten alive? He didn't harbor any hatred towards them or any emotions quite frankly other then fear and feeling depressed his eyes remained on the ground* `"I will ensure lady Roku doesn't fall into the snare of anyone's trap."` *His voice was still very quiet as he was very nervous, if he had to talk to anyone he would just tug rokus dress and tell her and avoid any form of direct confrontation as he was to scared to do any of that let alone he refused to cause anyone any harm, he didn't want to hurt or kill anyone.*
Brian
*She sighed, well... She supposed they would all need to be night owls then.* "Ah, no thank you. Faedon seemed to have done plenty of shopping for me- please wait until he returns. Three meals a day you know, that goes for Theias as well.." *Now, what was a little controversial was the question about the collar. That... Was... Well, maybe she bought him to be a pet?* "I think there are better alternatives but.." *She would pour herself and Theias some tea.* "I'm not sure... It might deteriorate his morale and self worth don't you think?" *Hm... How to put this in a better way.* "Do you remember your chains? How did you feel with them on, and how did you feel with them off?" *That as well, there was another problem.

 She stood as Theias spoke and walked over to the bedside to pick up a feather from the floor.* "Oh good, then will you be so inclined as to shop with her? It shouldn't be too much trouble.." *Those wings however might be. Tapping her chin in thought, she paced back and fourth whilst slowly twirling the feather around in her fingers. They were really going to have to do something about those.* "..Perhaps... If you kept them folded a cloak would suffice.." *It was the best solution she had... For now, anyway.*
Dawn
`"Oh ok! I was just asking Justin case..."` *She tilted her head three meals a day for her she frowned slightly that was a lot of eating but she could manage. She wasn't use to eating three times a day just one big meal a day is what she ate it could also be better to hire someone to chop the pieces of bodies up and serve them in a better manner on plates with forks, wine glasses to teach her table mannerisms.* `"Oh I only did it because I thought it would be best... But now that I see... It may be to much..."` *She reached over to Theias and slashed the collar off with her claws in a flash so he didn't have time to react or flinch like he normally would and set the collar down on the floor, ai was right as she was in chains it made her numb and felt like a tool rather then a person so she made quick work of the collar ai didn't have to explain any further then that.* `"Would a ribbon tied to both our wrists be a better option with slack so there's some space...?"` *She tilted her head asking ai*
Roslyn
*Breath was shakey, as he tried to not say any words unless asked he didn't move from his position as she spoke he listened quietly shaking still his cute face was smiling softly, to bad his aura couldn't call himself down.* `"I have no quarrel with going, I do as you please."` *He stated quietly before closing his mouth he didn't speak unless spoken to as she said if he could fold them he tried his best to fold his wings but with four wings it was difficult caused him discomfort even some pain trying to keep them tight against his back but he smiles softly looking down as if it didn't hurt at all* `"Is this acceptable...?"` *Seeing ai set down her tea on the small plate it was one and roku had left the collar on the floor he slowly got down on his knees picking it up slowly and went to the trash throwing it out, he then went to her tea seeing it was nearly empty he goes to fill it up once done he sets it down on the counter and backs up he trembles slightly closing his eyes as roku went to pull him closer he felt her hug him he kept his head low as he was hugged his breaths were shaking, now less controlled unlike before* `"I'm sorry I'll control my breathing I deeply apologize."` *He kept his eyes closed as he trembles scared afraid his breathing may make them become violent towards him like the slave masters did.*
Joseph
*Enters the carriage with food in his hand he was carrying multiple things, but they were all in the basket, he bought honey ale, water, wine bottle, a massive cooked turkey, rice the waft of nice food smells filled the carriage he struggled to hold it brining it over to the table and setting it down with an exhale he begins to organize the feast he brought* `"Did I miss anything my love? Is everything alright?"` *Happily walking over he looks at the angel and that he was shaking* `"Roku give him some time to being used to physical touch, I warned you once I won't warn again if he bites."` *He joked but he was serious a bit like when a scared animal push them to far they lash out.*
Brian
"Hm... A ribbon would suffice quite nicely. It would look less off putting as well." *Did she have a ribbon? Gosh she should have one somewhere. Rummaging around her coffin she would pull out a three foot black ribbon anout four inches wide and hand it to Roku. Looking over the wings, they looked- well... Not very content like that.* "No... No that won't do... What if we dyed the feathers? No disrespect to you dear but... You will be putting yourself and Roku in a lot of danger. I'm trying to think of ways to maybe work around that risk.." *His actions around Roku she found well, a little odd. He should be comfortable around her the most seeing as how their backgrounds were darn near similar. They could bond over trauma.*

"Oh goodness, here let me assist-" *She would help Faedon with the bags and help him set it all up nicely.* "On the topic of physical touch... I'm surprised he still reacts that way to her... Given her background before you found her. Roku... Have you maybe, told him about it? Maybe he will open up to you more... Perhaps while you are out, you might buy him a journal of his own. Do you have enough money?" *She fussed over her like an actual mother... It was kind of cute.* "I don't know what to do about his wings Faedon... If something happens or someone tries to take him, Roku *Will* Kill whoever she has to, and then the city will retaliate. I thought about dying them a different color but... I haven't the slightest idea how that would affect him.."
Dawn
*She smiles softly as she hugged him she didn't listen to faedon she was being a little rebellious she had helped him heal, there was nothing she hadn't seen already, she thought it was best to 'brute force' her way in by giving him hugs and other physical touch other then pain a new sensation to him which she has been giving him for 3 days already it was horrible at first, he would damn near be crying but now it only came to shakes, she was making slow but steady progress.* `"I think it's a good idea mom, it's simple and easy."` *She nodded it was the best option but it would take away from his divinity name...* `"What about spell? There are spells to hide objects, or make them invisible...?"` *She nodded they could make them invisible to others maybe she didn't know anything about that would turn to Faedon for help, as she felt him shaking she gently pulled him into her chest wrapping her arms around his neck and holding his head with a smile* `"It's ok don't worry I won't hurt you, I treated you well so has my family."` *She nodded.*

*She titled her head to the side as she said the way he reacts to her she frowns slightly, and begins to speak softly gently running her fingers through his soft hair as she held him close* `"Um... No I haven't... Will it really help?"` *She asked maybe it would and buying him a journal for him to write might be great! She looked down as she checked her bag of coins she nodded still having 25 gold coins more or less.* `"Yes I do mom. I promise I won't kill unless I absolutely have no choice but to and no killing innocence."` *She rose a finger speaking as ai did when she told her about the rule with a happy smile patting Theias head.*
Joseph
*As ai would help unload all of the food and items he brought he huffed and smiles as it was prepped nearly he leaned over and kissed ai's cheek, seeing theias he was still shaking, but it was slightly less then before, as Roku kept smothering him with hugs and touch he shook his head he was unable to separate her from his side, it was like she joined him to her hip, perhaps because of her past he walks forward and kneels beside Roku and Theias.* `"Listen just for a bit bad things happen, sometimes to those who don't deserve, it but don't rob yourself from being happy when people around you care me and roku haven't harmed you yet."` *As theias turned around slowly to see faedon smiling softly.* `"Now your part of our family whether you like it or not, we won't let anyone hurt you promise."` *He gently placed his hand on his head and pulled his head close to his shoulder before ruffling his hair and standing up he walked over to ai's side and leaned down slowly to whisper in her ear* `"Did I do... Good I'm not use to this with new members.."` *He took a deep breath as Roku explained she wouldn't kill unless she absolutely had to he looked at ai* `"Hmmm his wings... We need to go to a spell book store or a magic item store and have someone cast an enchantment on a ring or necklace to make his wings invisible to everyone."` *He nodded Roku was on the right track but she lacked the knowledge of exactly what it was.*
Roslyn
*Kept his head low as ai spoke he wanted to reply to her but he kept his mouth quiet, as his eyes focused on the floor holding his hands on his clothes, quietly, but when ai said someone about rokus background was she also in something similar to him? He would slowly look up to roku she was so happy, then his eyes to ai she was happy then faedon he was happy, everyone was happy but him. He felt bad that he couldn't be happy like them and that he may have been dragging the mood down, was he was pulled into ai's chest he made an 'umpf!' sound as it was unexpected he was confused but he felt warm in rokus arms and closed his eyes, his shaking was slightly less, this was all very new to him, being years in captivity, all he experienced was violence so it was new stimulus touch that didn't hurt. His wings fluttered slightly, kicking up wind underneath them slightly, feeling small fingers run through his hair it felt calming and it began to calm him down. He heard a voice and footsteps approaching him he slowly turned with a red face nose and cheeks looking at faedon he lowered and bowed his head in respect, he felt faedon lift his chin and level his head with his before he continued he grinded his teeth slightly as he listened to him they were so nice to him! It didn't make any sense! He didn't even have to give them anything in return tears began to well I'm his eyes as he spoke with his voice cracking slightly* `"Thank you sir faedon..."` *He was told he didn't have to call him sir and only Faedon and that it was ok to cry as long as he didn't be a cry baby all the time he cried quietly Roku gently wiped his tears* `"I hope to never disappoint miss ai or faedon, I'll try to be better."` *He gave a weak smile the words of encouragement he never had before and it lightened his day, as he turned to ai* `"Will you forgive me for being like this Infront of you I'm supposed to serve..."` *His voice cracks slightly more as he was still very quiet when speaking*
