tune

(After watching too many vines, seeing this I just went: do you kno da wae?)

(Omg, loosing it)

Calla slid off from the bed, coming up to Ronan and hiding behind his legs. She smiled at Avi, already imagining their future in a big house with a HUGE teddy-bear, just like the rosy cheeked girl had.

“A lyre,” she said eagerly, smiling. “It’s like a smaller and better harp. It really makes the most beautiful music, you know? Transportation isn’t the easiest because you have to be careful of hitting the strings, but I really think the music and music quality makes u p for it. Besides, not much choice in the matter.”

Karina being in the bathroom, cleaning the stab wound, Calixto stood up and answered the door. God, he hoped it wasn't some random human who would see him as a slave opening the door for his master or some bs like that.
Upon the doorstep was the group from the night before.
"Oh, you guys again. If you're looking for Karina, she's in the other room right now, so um…" he gestured for the group to come inside. Remember, be nice, be nice.

Ronan looked behind himself at Calla and smiled softly, ruffling the young Sunai’s hair. He turned back to Avi and nodded. “Right, and of course. If you don’t mind, would you play for us? Just a bit? I don’t think I’ve ever heard the tune of a lyre before.”

Faye looked up at the tall Malchai and nodded quickly. “Thank you,” she said, stepping inside and glancing around. It was a nice looking home, around the same size of her own.

(Faye knows da wae)

(I'm laughing so hard help XDDDD)

"Thank you Calixto," Lila nodded and entered the house.

“Of course,” she said, turning around and pulling her lyre out. “But you have to play your violin afterwards.” Saying that, she started playing a gentle lullaby-like song on her lyre.

"A liar?" Calla looked up at Ronan, confused.

(if I could cry I’d be sobbing because of that lmaoooo)

Ronan smiled and gave another nod as he listened. “Deal.” He looked down at Calla when she spoke, doing his best to not laugh at her. “Not liar, lyre. It’s an instrument.”

His eyes widened at the sound of his name. Huh, someone remembered it. Strange.
Coming out of the bathroom, Karina began rambling again, not noticing her guests quite yet.
"Admit it, you're happy that this ended up happening," she said gesturing to her arm. Calixto normally would have flat out agreed, but with others in the home, he didn't want them to think he was the one who had stabbed her.
He fumbled around with his words, as Karina did far from assist him in the situation.
"What, you not gonna- OH LORD, WHEN DID YOU GUYS GET HERE? Oh man, I'm SOOOO sorry for the mess!" she quickly said, scrambling for things to say, now seeing the three in her living room.

"Okay. Like my flute?" she lifted it up, smiling at it.

"Its fine," Lila insisted, "We're the ones barging into your guys home."

“Yeah, something like that,” Ronan said with a soft chuckle. He turned his attention back to Avi, listening to the beautiful sounding music.

Faye’s brows raised at the cut on Karina’s arm. She did it for Calixto? She glanced over at Dax for a moment, remembering when she did the same. She turned her attention to Karina again and gave a quick smile. “No, it’s alright,” she reassured quickly.

“Yep,” she said as the tune ended. “Do you want to play for us?”

Calixto took one of the chairs from the kitchen and sat in it backwards.
"Not to be rude, but I'm assuming ya need something?" Calixto asked, getting a small glare from Karina. He only shrugged in response to it.
"It's good to see you all again at least!" Karina said, looking at her guests.
"Oh, right, do any of you want a drink or something while you're here?"

"Yes!" Calla smiled and put the flute to her lips, playing a soft song. 'Sleeping rose', she called it, the sound filling up the room and promising herself that she was safe.

Avi smiled and applauded a little when she was finished.

Calla smiled at Avi, coming out from behind Ronan's legs and hugging Avi's legs.
"Teach me how to play the lyre, big sister?"

She laughed and knelt down, picking Calla up the best she could. “I’ll try later on. For now, let’s hear Ronan play the violin.”

Faye shook her head slowly, eyes once again going to Dax. He did need to be fed soon. She would discuss it with him later, she told herself. “No, we just have a bit of a problem, and we need help.”
~~
Ronan smiled as he watched Calla. For being so young, she was already a natural at her given instrument. He felt extremely proud of her as he listened to the soft tune. “Very good, Calla.”

"Thank you!" Calla shouted from Avi's arms, grinning and reaching out wildly to find Ronan.

Ronan reached out and gave Calla’s outstretched hand a pat before picking up his violin. He raised it to rest under his chin, partly balanced against his shoulder as he played, the tune slow and soft, but it seemed to slowly build and get faster.

Karina crossed her legs as she stood, interested in what Faye had to say.
"Help with what?" she asked, worried for the response. She hoped they weren't in too serious trouble. Her mind also continued to float back to the fact that the house was still a bit messy from the squabble from earlier.
Calixto set his head on his arms at the top of the chair, only half interested in what the group would have to say.

Calla heard Ronan play from Avi's arms. "That's my big brother." she whispered, eyes shining.
