Aliene wrinkled her nose at the cold wet sensation that hit her own, still half asleep as the cloudtail tried to get her attention and apparently affection as well. She groaned baffled by the strange invasion of foreign sensation, which quickly turned into a sleepy giggle, the cloudtail nuzzling and purring tickling her awake. Opening her heavy lids she found she had a face full of fur, warm fur to be precise. It was strangly comforting, especially as he exuded a sleepy, warm milk type of scent. "Cheeky..." She mumbled into his fur, nuzzling him back, reaching up to gently stroke and cuddle him. "You are not meant to be up here," she whispered, but smiled nonetheless.<br/><br/>Stretching awake, she turned to lay on her back, staring up at the ceiling. And like a bucket of cold water she remembered last night, feeling both sorry for possibly hurting Kanrou's and Crypt's feelings, but also still upset over what had transpired. She would not be forced to be someone she wasn't, would not be forced to dress how others wanted, would not be forced to do things she didn't like or feel comfortable with. She'd had enough of being told what to do, what to be, how to act, how to live, what to wear, being shoved around, hurt, abused, belittled, have false hopes and niceties thrown at her. She was sick of it all. She just wanted to learn control, find a slice of happiness for herself and be left alone, to be able to live without fear, rejection and pain.<br/><br/>But the hard part was trying to achieve all that under the hands of a mad magician with possible wicked motives. She would have to figure out a way to go back to her realm, to find some sort of spell that made her invisible to those looking for her if she didn't want to be found. She'd have to make a plan, once she'd learned a little more from her torturous teacher. She wasn't going to be his puppet anymore that was for sure. The problem was it was harder done than said.<br/><br/>For now she would cooperate. Looking to her bedside table to spotted the meditating Kanrou over the cloudtail curled up fur.  Blushing a little she decided a bath would be best. Picking the cloudtail up off her hair and placing him on the floor with a pat, she got up, trying not to disturb the fae as she tiptoed to her bathroom. A short bath later and she came back out dressed in a casual kimono, having just about managed to figure out how to tie it up. Taking a seat at the table she began reading through her to-do list, and realised one of the first things would be to visit the orphanage Crypt had mentioned last night.<br/><br/>She must be taking the left over food there or something. Hugging herself she knew she didn't want to go, but at the same time she did. Conflicting past and present emotions had her sighing heavily.<br/><br/>This was going to be an long, tiresome but interesting day yet again.<br/><br/>Rolling out the map onto the table she began trying to work out where this orphanage was.<br/><br/>----------------<br/><br/>Akane let out a sleepy groan, not wanting to get up. Yet she slowly uncurled in her comfy bed, languishing in the growing warmth as she slowly allowed herself to wake. Looking like the embodiment of sex, with her toulosed hair haloing her features and lidded gaze eyeing a very deliscious looking Crypts backside, she smiled sinfully. It was obvious he thought her still asleep, but now she was very much awake with her prey of interest in sight, alone and bearing gifts.<br/><br/>Soundlessly and stealthily she stretched her tail out, her body too big for the bed anyway, and slowly coiled the tip of her tail around Crypt's chest, lifting him with ease under the arms and bringing him over beside her bed. Raising her top half up to rest her head in the palm of her hand she smiled with wicked glee. "Crypt darling, what a wonderful way to wake up, with you in my room. It would have been even nicer.." she said, bringing him closer to the point he was made to kneel next to her on the bed, leaning foreword to stroke a hand along his jaw and down his neck in a sweet caress. "..if I had gotten to wake up with you in this bed beside me, preferably without that stuffy attire of yours," she murmured huskily, brushing their noses together. "Seeing as you are already here, would you not care to induldge us both," she whispered the last part in his ear, daring to flick her tongue out against his pulse for a long awaited taste. "Come now, have a little fun with me Crypt," she murmured against his skin, practically nuzzling his neck.
