She raised her eyebrows, a small smile on her face. What was that about shadows? "No need to bow, Murder, and yes, you may stay for breakfast." As soon as she finished that sentence, the second wake up call was sounded.. and it sounded like the gong was being hit more than once. Them sleeping Sins won't be sleeping no more. Eliade said wisely, tail curled around Gea's neck.
She led Murder back through towards the Sparring Square, where everyone was gathered. Some were wandering towards the mess hall, either in a daze from the ringing in their ears or in anticipation for the food. She saw a disgruntled Vanity and a cheerfully beaming Avarice. She waved, and they went to the hall together.
"Morning! Say hi to our newbie, Murder. He'll be staying with us as of today, and would someone like to show him around so he can pick his new room?" she announced to the others. "I'd like to speak to you after breakfast, though, if you don't mind." She added quietly to him.

Regret hopped into his room to get changed, smiling almost giddily to himself as he emerged, clothed, only a few minutes later. He then allowed Sadness to lead him away towards the entrance to the building.
"Oh, one sec," he remembered urgently, pulling out of her grip and dashing down the opposite hallway. What kind of picnic would it be without the food? Then, not wanting to be rude, he turned back. "Meet me outside on the beach," he called with a wide smile. "I'll be RIGHT there!!"ooc: There. Now you go make a post on the Coastline and I'll catch up. xD LEAVING THREAD NOW!

Murder had Kept his ears open the hole time to the echo through shadow. He has been able to do this ever sense he was able to shadow walk. If he put his senses into shadow he would be able to hear all of the things that people said while in shadow. It always sounded like an echo to him. In his time as one of the Red Daggers it was very useful in finding out where the target was going to be. but now he used it for information gathering.
Tarna was taken back by what the girl said. Tell her what I think about it! Murder had the same idea in mind. "It is good to show respect to your superior." After he said that he fully expected for the girl to hit him. He was also prepared to move out of the way of it. Thank you. Tarna gave a small perr.
Murder moved along with the Empress. He let even more embarrassed when she told his name. It had happened to him once when that happened. It took him the hole night to get out of there because most of the people in there had someone killed by him. And that was when they all found out. It was a fun day for Tarna because no one gave any attention to the spider. Murder looked around the room.
They were all at least 10 years younger than him. Even the Empress was younger. He bowed to her. "It would be my honor." He took a step closer and put his tone down so no one could hear him. "If you don't mind me asking, Why is everyone so young?"
lol to Murders fail

He heard the faint call. A new Sin, eh? It was starting to get boring anyway... he smirked. After a few moments, he felt a whoosh in the air near the gong and his eyes widened with realization. Too late, the gong boomed a few times. Terror grimaced and winced at the ringing in his unplugged ears.
He looked up to find the one who banged on the gong walking towards him. Avarice. I should have known. he frowned. Avarice seems cheerful today. Might have been because of playing with the gong was Terror's thoughts.
"I agree. Brilliant morning it is! Until I unplugged my ears too quickly." he smiled up at the young Sin and took his arm. Getting up, he leaned back against the wall and crossed his arms, waiting for Gea to arrive. Or rather... the food to arrive...
Not a moment later, the Empress came with the new Sin. He looked at Murder critically and replied, "Bye!"
Grinning to himself, he strode off to his chair at the table, flopping down. Arms behind his head, he purposely put his two feet on the table, knowing very well it wasn't allowed.

"Didn't your mother ever teach you any manners, you brat?" The chair supporting Terror's weight tipped backward sharply with her telekinesis, a scowl gracing Vanity's usually-expressionless features. "Maybe you'd like to eat on the floor until you learn some table manners of your own."
I will DESTROY Avarice for that racket this morning, grumbled the young Sin to herself, shifting her head towards Gea and Murder. "Morning, though it's hardly been a good one. Nice to meet you, Murder, is it.." She threw him a slight wink before turning to the table again, taking in the aroma of frying food.

After her quick unhappy hello to the new sin, Wrath returned to her room. Akahi still laid in the bed trying to continue her sleep. It was interrupted once more with another gong. Akahi let out an roar of annoyance for the gong. "Hey, hey, stop that. Just go back to bed the rest of the sins will be up soon and then no more gongs. So get back to sleep. I'll bring you some food after." Wrath said sleepily to her tiger. Akahi didn't say anything, just relaxed her head on her front paws and went back to sleep. Akahi is not a very good morning kitty, thought Wrath. She went to her dresser next to her bed. She sat on her bed and looked into the mirror that sat on the dresser. She grabbed her brush and ran it through her hair. Once her hair was the way she wanted it, she took her hands and throw them to her eyes. She was still very tired. She rubbed her eyes in an attempt to wake her some more but it did work very well. She looked at herself in the mirror once more. Other than her hair being the way she wanted, she looked terrible. She let out a light, "argh!" She grabbed her bunny and sat it on her dresser. The bunny sat slightly forward and one of its ears flopped forward as well. "Breakfast time, I guess," Wrath said rubbing one of her hands over an eye once again.
She walked out just in time to see Gea with the new sin asking for someone to show him around. "*ppffff* Count me out," she said to herself. She joined them as the entered the mess hall. It was then that she noticed Terror. She giggled a bit when Terror said, "bye," to the sin. Wrath liked that kind of attitude in a sin. Not the kind of sin that wake up smiling in the morning. She watched Terror sit in his seat and put his feet on the table. Wrath smiled and thought, this guy need to be my friend. It was then that she realized Vanity trying to tip his chair. Walking over to him, she grabbed the chair to prevent it from falling. "Vanity it's too early in the morning. Don't start this now," she said sleepily. Wrath then grabbed the chair next to Terror. Still talking sleepily, she said to him, "Mornin Terror. Whats up?"

Ooc: Oh woops, didn't read properly. Gonna edit this. I was given permission btw Also, sorry, Sean D: I forgot. Editted. Gea was just about to physically kick Terror's chair, or zap him, when Vanity used her awesome mind trick to do what she had intended to physically do. But Wrath stopped the chair from tipping instead. The cook stuck her head out, and her metal sthingy came into view, and both looked sinister. Gea walked over towards where Terror was still leaning comfortably, gave a nasty grin and kicked hard against the chair, causing him to land sharply on the floor. Madam Cooke looked eerily satisfied, and disappeared back into the kitchen again.
"Don't you know its rude to put your legs on the table when others are about to eat? As punishment, since you so excellently volunteered, you're to show our newbie around. And there is no way you're getting out of this one." She's done her job. If no one volunteers (none of them do everytime, the lazy jerks), she'd just have to use 'desperate' measures. Not that she's desperate, no, more like the Sins she appoint as a guide feel desperate enough to push the job to someone else.
"Also, Terror, go get a wet cloth and wipe the stains off the table before you eat." She added, grabbing her tray of delicious (sea)food and sitting down next to Vanity.
Murder's question surprised her, and she looked around to reaffirm his question of a statement. It was true, everyone was rather.. young in appearance here.
"Ah. Yeah. Our appearance kinda stays like that for years. I probably should look like an ancient old granny, hell knows how long I've been.. 'alive'." She paused and glanced at him. "I suppose we all look the age we died. Seems majority of us are tragic teenagers, sorry."Ooc: Srsly. Terror is to show Murder around. Else there'll murder coming from someone other than Murder.

Avarice tilted his head in confusion at Terror's frown but quickly found out what had upset him. He couldn't help but laugh a bit as he continued to help Terror to his feet, "My bad but that gong is way too much fun!" They didn't have to wait long for the rest of the Sins to show and ,as soon Empress Gea came in with the new sin in tow, Terror was off to his seat. The only problem was that, even though he had been here for three years and knew the rules, he deliberately placed his two feet on the table. Bad move... Not only did he have a few of the female sins get on him about it but the cook appeared, likely wanting to see the punishment received. Truthfully, Madam Cooke scared Avarice a bit... He wouldn't dare do something wrong in her presence.
For some reason, Vanity always seemed quite angry/grumpy in the morning. It occurred to him that she may be more of the nocturnal type but breakfast is important. She seemed especially pissed off at Avarice himself this morning, maybe she knew he rang the second gong? He'd have to watch his back... She had already tried to tip Terror's chair over with her telekinesis, before Wrath stopped it, just because his feet were on the table. Which is still a big deal, but, he had interrupted her beauty sleep... And, with the Sin of Vanity, that almost seemed like the worst thing one could do... Wrath didn't seem to like him much either though he didn't know why. Hopefully, even if the other sins despised him, they would know they he was there if they needed help with anything. Without his little brother around, Avarice found himself taking care of the sins around him like he used to with Imad. Of course not everyone likes siblings.
Everyone else began taking their seats as Terror was, for lack of better words, forced to be the newbie's guide. Now, most everyone knows that Avarice would do just about anything Empress Gea asked, but today, he just didn't feel in the mood to show the new guy around. Sure, he was pretty cheery this morning but the truth of the matter is, the nightmare he woke up to almost every night, made him miss his little brother that much more. It upset him to think about how he spent hours concentrating on a connection with his brother to get through all the important(or less than so) messages that needed to be sent, meetings and love letters from Mischief, yet he had no time to even find out if Imad was eating right or getting along with the others. It was always so hard to decipher the faint images, scents, and sounds that sometimes they would become too tired and have to break the connection. Avarice missed his brother terribly and he wasn't sure how much longer he could hide this longing from the others.
Avarice took his place next to Empress Gea just as she was answering Murder's earlier question and couldn't help the smile that played across his features. Old granny, eh? This new sin wouldn't know how true that was. As for appearances, he liked the 'tragic teenagers' bit. However unfortunate that title sounded, it fit. Perfect way of describing most of their lives even though he himself died somewhere around the age of 21-22. Avarice's thoughts drifted to the various things he found in his fellow sins' rooms. Old habits die hard and he often spent his free time nicking small objects from the other sins. He would always give them back though... eventually. Within the first month of arriving here, Avarice had stumbled across the most interesting item yet-- Empress Gea's Journal! Of course, he couldn't help himself from reading it and learned quite a few things about the Sin of Vengeance. He knew he was already dead, so, maybe it'd be better to die from the Empress's hands? Avarice put on his famously playful smile and looked in Murder's direction, "Even though she doesn't look a day over 17, Empress Gea here is somewhere around 554 years old." He winked, "I like older women."

[XDDD I don't mind Terror being Murder's guide. Moar rp = Gooooooooooood...]
"WHOA!" he exclaimed and grabbed the sides of the table when his chair suddenly tipped backwards. And just as suddenly, it stopped thanks to Wrath. Vanity did that eh? I'll get my revenge one day! he fumed.
Balancing on the two chair legs again, he leaned back and closed his eyes, waiting for the food to appear. "The ceiling." he replied to Wrath. [It IS a ceiling above the hall right? o.o Not open sky?]
He looked up when Gea's shadow darkened the light that penetrated his eyelids. "Whu-?" he was cut off by the falling on his back. With a loud bang, accompanied by a loud yelp, Terror was on the floor. He got up, rubbing his head and scowled at the Empress. "Fine! But don't come to me if he starts complaining of the hard time I WILL give him!"
He stormed off towards the staff area to look for a cloth. Just as he thought the day would start out fine, he had to be this newbie's guide. What nonsen-
Hey... Wait a minute... This could be fun! I can play pranks on him with my powers! Yes... Terror smirked as he came back with the cloth in hand.

Murder looked off to where the girl that just winked at him went. How about her? Tarna was also looking of to where she went but was also looking at the other girls there. There were times when Murder wanted to crush her under his boot. Whenever there are girls around. No mater what age. She would ask him if he was interested. But there was always a reason to say no. She is too young. Tarna gave an annoyed sigh. You are just too old. Murder was a little startled by what she said. I am only 36! It isn't my fault. Murder wondered what would happen if he said yes for a girl.
Murder nearly chocked on the air when he heard what the Empress said. " Everyone died?!" He said that a little louder than he wished. He lowed his voice. "Then how are they all living?" Murder then put up his hand. "Never mind I will ask you after food." Then he looked off to the boy named Terror. Then Murder smelled the food from there kitchen. "I must decline on the guide for I haven't eaten for a few days."
Then another boy came up said something that to Murder sounded like a joke. He gave a small chuckle. Then he heard the boys comments. He looked over at the Empress. "I will look away when you slap him." He said this more as a joke than being serious. Murder then looked around at the table. He then saw one seat open.
Shadow walk to it. Murder gave a questioning look at Tarna. Why? I can just walk there. She gave Murder a little poke of here leg. You need to show these people that you have a power. And you need to show off. He sighed. Fine.
Murder looked at a shadow then did what he has done for most of his life. He emptied his mine and filled it with shadow. Then he saw the path that he could take. Then took a step toward the chair and instantly was there. All of this took only a second. He then sat in the chair and started to twiddle his thumbs. Its not that he hasn't food at a table before. It was that he never has eaten with people. He was feeling very out of place around all of these young people. He then looked around at the people to see there reactions.

A sudden breeze swept through the room and crawled across the table. It's chill against flesh could make hairs stand and spines tingle. It seemed unusual because of the sight that no windows appeared to be open. In the direction the breeze fled to was a man who seemingly appeared from thin air. His anonymous figure could be seem casually leaning against the wall with his head held low.
"hehe quite impressive" he said applauding Murders powers. "I could use someone like you". The man lifted his head to reveal a freakishly large smile containing perfect white teeth. The began a slow paced walk circling the table like a shark cornering his prey. "Good morning my fellow Sins, I have heard sooooo much about all of you and can clearly see even from the breakfast table that you have very interesting abilities. All that comes to mind is... badassery. Oh my my where are my manners my name is Greed and I am hear to make friends. Some of you may have heard some rumors about me but I assure you that all the bad things you heard were not true". The man looked like he was in the middle of some corny sales pitch as he walked and fidgeted around in his flashy dress clothes and his loose tie dangled back and forth. His steps then came to a halt "May I have a seat". His smile didn't seem to tier which seemed unusual because any other normal person would have massive cramps in their face by then. ;D
(read Greed's words enthusiastically)

Wrath was now pissed. Not at what Terror said, she even giggled a bit at his answer. She was however though mad at the other sins. She can not stand most of them. To her they are no sins, nothing about them are sin like. Wrath then got up from her seat. She walked over to the cook and asked for some toast. Once she got it, she left without saying anything to anyone. She did make it clear though in her face that she was not happy, she even went out of her way to show it to Gea.
She bursted into her room skarfing down her toast. Akahi looked up at her, Whats wrong? he asked. "The sins, thats whats wrong!" She replied angriely. What did they do? Akahi asked. Wrath laid down on the bed as to calm her self, "how can they call themselves sins when they're all happy and cheery!? It sickens me." Putting on a fake smile and making a high pitch happy voice, "Oh look I'm a sin! Heres some pretty flowers for you. Lets help the villagers with their work, we don't want them to get hurt." she said imitating the sins, even though none of them ever said that. A lot has changed, said Akahi. "Yeah well the change sucks," Wrath snapped. "Come on, I gotta get out of her," Wrath said getting up. She grabbed her bunny from her dresser, her swords and anything else she might need for the day. "Maybe I'll feel better tonight," she said. Akahi fallowed her out the door. Hey where's my breakfast? he asked. Wrath relpied, "we'll go fishing." And they left the grounds

Vanity rolled her eyes at the volatile Sin's banging as a stray "THEY DON'T EVEN ACT LIKE SINS" thought floated through her mind. Wacky powers, they were wack. Very very wack lately, ever since Kham' hur. "Funny how the Sin with the plush rabbit complains we're not out bathing in the blood of locals, or something."
She picked casually at the fresh green salad Madam Cooke had prepared for her (Madam Cooke had very quickly taken to Vanity's eating habits, never anything too heavy), working her way through it as she watched Murder with much amusement.
With much less amusement however, Vanity irritatedly picked out a blonde curl dirtied with dressing out of her bowl, no-thank-you to Mr-Corny-Introduction-Speech-With-The-Ear-To-Ear-Grin. "You can have this seat, it just....vacated." The prideful Sin practically glared venom into Greed's face before disappearing into the corridors, albino peacock trailing rapidly behind.
It was definitely time to continue her sleep, before she killed something or someone.
OOC: And Vanity has left the building. xD She and Greed will be throwing Kham' hur coconuts at each other for a fair bit I reckon.

Gea watched the new arrival with cold amusement, barely batting an eyelash. First Murder, and now another new one..? Where had these people popped up from? She daintily stuffed the last piece of fish into her mouth and swallowed it, pointedly deciding to ignore Wrath's temper tantrum.
"'fraid none of us have ever heard of you." Vengeance said to Greed, folding her arms, catching sight of Terror's suddenly gleeful face.
"I don't care how you show him around, so long as he knows what is where by the end of the day. I'm sure he can handle you. Greed can follow Murder." She glared suspiciously at Avarice, however. "How, in the nine regions of bloody hell, do you know that," She hissed under her breath to him, grabbing her now empty tray (she eats pretty quickly) and depositing it into one of the kitchen's boy's arms.
"I, however, will be taking a nice long walk. If any of you need me, send Eliade. I expect she's snoozing at the moment." She muttered, walking off.
Ooc: Am out of this thread.
