Rose takes a quick shower before getting dressed then after sitting on one of the beds, she begins to hum quietly. She looks toward Ryu, "Are you serious? You're fighting about the couch? Did you not see the size of the room?" She glances around and slightly frowns, she knows this room isn't used much and only by request but few outside of town know it exist. But, she stills feels bad about taking it out of 'rent-a-bility'.

Nola smiles and takes the dice, she can smell the blood on Sky and knows she is hiding some of her wounds. She wanted to say something but she knew that Sky needed time to feel safer before displaying weakness. Nola watches as Kalib heads to talk to Felicia before heading to check on Sky.

Sky has stopped the blood coming from her nose. She looks up at the mirror and struggles to keep herself from puking as the world spins. She hears someone knock on the bathroom door. She turns to open the door and stumbles as the world decides to tip dangerously to the side causing her to trip and fall into the door, knocking herself out. (Face-palms...)

Nola jumps when she hears something hit the door. After some work she gets the door open enough she can get in. When she sees Sky she goes and moves her into a more comfortable position as she calls for Felicia.

Conner and Caleb sit by Crimson after taking a plate for each of them and Jax and Crimson. The four sit together at the foot of the couch. Mia gives a plate to Dean, Nazar, and Naven. After they have their plates they go to sit by the others. Caleb is next to Crimson, who is sitting in front of the middle of the couch. Conner is sitting on his other side. Jax is on Crimson's other side, Mia sits next to him. Nazar and Naven sit next to Conner with Shadow between the two older boys.. The group forms a semi circle on the floor.

(I'm so sorry for not responding sooner!)

"I'm sorry." Courage says, thinking that Rose was talking to her. She moved to sit on the bed beside Rose and Galaxia. She doesn't bother getting changed, simply crashing on the bed and falling asleep rather quickly. Galaxia glances at Courage as the dragon slips easily into sleep.
"Lucky," Galaxia mumbles. It takes a long time for her to fall asleep at any time. Asher is already dozing on the couch and Ryu is inching forward to cuddle with him. Asher grunts softly when Ryu flops on him and attempts to burrow under his arm. The human gives a tolerant kind of sigh and allows Ryu to cuddle with him. Ryu happily falls still in Asher's arms.

Felicia is already making her way over to where Kalib is directing her. "Coming!" She calls to assure Nola and Sky that she is on her way. She soon makes it over to the two and helps Sky. She tells Nola and Kalib that Sky will be fine, but Kalib is still looking worried. "You two can go downstairs and have something to eat. I'll be right down with Skylar in a few moments." Felicia assures Nola and Kalib with a smile before returning to helping Sky.

Kalib stuffs her hands in her pockets and shuffles her feet, still hesitant to leave her friend's side. Or if they weren't friends yet - mostly on behalf of Kalib scaring Sky away by being more than a little bit eccentric - Kalib's hesitant to leave Skylar's side. She holds her hand out to Nola, silently asking to hold hands. She drew comfort in contact with others, usually those she knows. Then she glances out the door to ask Nola if she wanted to go and grab something to eat as Felicia had suggested. "Do you need any help bringing Skylar down or anything at all?" Kalib asks Felicia. "If there's no room down there with the others you can use my room or the attic, I think they decided to stay in."

Jacob moves to join the group in eating, though he didn't force himself in the circle. He knew better than to place himself in a situation where he could potentially get a whole group to turn on him. He doesn't say anything, though it's clear that he has become curious as to why exactly they're here and why they're in such a terrible condition, etc.

Jayden sits silently and lets Mark vent and go on a rant about how he (Jayden) has to get himself together, get his head in the game, start thinking and acting his age, and all that. Mark pauses and falls still.
"Are you going to say anything and let me know you've listened? Stop me and tell me I'm where I messed up like you usually do? Anything?" Mark asks quietly, taking Jayden's hand in his own.
"Yeah, no. No. I listened and I understand where you're coming from, I will agree with your points and I won't dare try and tell you you're wrong. I'll start shaping up now and obey your every command since you know what's best for the pack. I'll do better. I'll meet expectations." Jayden vows. Even when Mark turns his head so he'd be facing him, Jayden still doesn't meet his gaze.

Rose goes to explain that she wasn't talking to Courage but stops when she notices that she has already fallen asleep. She chuckles at Galaxia's comment and smiles. She makes an dramatic exasperated sound at Ryu's actions and when Asher allows him to cuddle with him, she smirks and goes, "Awwwww..." before whispering to Galaxia, "I ship it..." She chuckles and moves to a chair that she moves next to the side of the bed Courage is on. So, she can help the blind dragon if she needs help. She sits 'criss cross applesauce' in the chair with her elbows on her knees and her chin in her hands.

Nola blushes slightly at the fact that Kalib wants to hold her hand. She takes Kalib's hand to comfort her and nods to show she wouldn't mind going to eat. She knows that Sky might freak out if she feels surrounded when she wakes up. Nola leads Kalib to get some food and grabs a plate for herself. When the go into the living room Crimson beckons them to the circle.

Crimson looks toward Jacob and slightly shifts her head to either side. (It was barely noticeable) The others in the circle move to make room for more people. "Do you want to sit with us? Jacob? That was your name right?' she says the last bit with a slight glance toward Jax and Dean. When she sees Nola, she smiles slightly with a slightly longing (brings up a 'better' time + it was before Liam, Sky's older brother, left the Borealis Pack and David, Nola's older brother, left the Orenda Pack) based look before beckoning Nola and Kalib to sit with them as well.

@@ It's okay... I've been busy too...@@

Galaxia tries to figure out how to get the entertainment system to work. The hotel where she had grown up exploring and helping her parents work at had a slightly different set. She smiles when Rose reacts to the boys' actions and finds herself searching for something to say to tease Ryu and Asher. Galaxia pulls back from her challenge empty handed. On the topic of shipping Asher and Ryu, she felt Asher was just a player at this point in time and that he wouldn't fall for anyone other than to get one gain or another.
Asher had taken Galaxia with that purpose in mind - free lodging and food for the time he spent at her family's hotel until he convinced her to join him at his work - he'd taken up a few others along the way - the most recent being Courage - he hooked up with a few others before her - rumors and interactions proved as much as to hint there were at least two before Galaxia's touch and go - and she is sure he is going to deal the same definite doom to Ryu whenever he finished getting what he wants - whatever that happens to be since Galaxia couldn't figure out what Asher wanted from Ryu just yet. Of course, Galaxia kept her thoughts to herself since she didn't feel it was her place to say anything.
"Yeah, I ship it too. Now to come up with a ship name." She hums in thought, tapping her chin as if in deep thought while she is flipping through stations on the tv.
"You wouldn't dare." Ryu murmurs, his golden eyes opening just enough so he could care at Galaxia. Asher combs his hand through Ryu's hair between the dragon horns. He calms Ryu down again soon enough, rubbing small circles on the dragon's back. At first, Ryu had stiffened at the touch but, after enough moments to realize that the touch wouldn't hurt him, he fairly melted against Asher.

Kalib releases a breath she hadn't known she had been holding until Nola took her hand. She skips down the hall and pretty much bounces down the stairs, though she runs down her energy and bounciness down a notch so she wouldn't bump into Nola. Kalib grabs a plate for herself, reluctantly letting go of Nola's hand so she would have less of a chance of dropping or tipping the plate. Kalib heads to the circle, drawn to other people like a moth is to light.

Jayden enters the room, looking tuckered. Mark had let him go, and Jayden hadn't stuck around for him to change his mind. He's emotionally and physically drained. He comes in time to hear Crimson ask "Yes, his name was Jacob, still is if you wanted to put it that way." He gives a small smile, looks at the food the others have, and goes to grab some for himself. He takes his food and heads to sit beside his cousin, though he looks suddenly hesitant to be around the Borealis wolves.
Jacob gives Jayden an irritated look and the younger wolf bows his head submissively and diverts his gaze. "Um, so, yeah, what Jayden said." Jacob concluded on the topic of his name. "I wouldn't mind sitting with you guys." He says and joins the circle.

Rose hums in thought knowing of Asher's past flings but hopes he will have found someone to be happy with... "Rasher... Maybe... Because we don't know who is more 'Rash'... But also it works with their names..." She seems to tense when Ryu gets angry as if she is on high alert... (Which she is...) When he calms down she seems to become less tense. She smiles faintly and rests her head on her hands and sighs quietly... 'This is the closest I've felt at ease... Like I'm with pack... Like I'm safe since... Since, I left the Borealis Pack... Since I left Crim and Co... Since Mom died... Since he... died...' Rose sighs and shakes her head as if to clear and fakes a yawn to cover up the tears threatening to fall. She rubs her face to get rid of the tears and glances toward Galaxia in confusion... 'Oh...' She chuckles quietly and smiles faintly, before explaining how to work the entertainment set to Galaxia.

Crim smirks and an unreadable expression crosses her face before disappearing. She hums in response and her focus seems to fade for a minute before she chuckles lightly and seems to appear normal... As if she hadn't been brought to their territory in bad shape... As if she hadn't almost died... Almost as if nearly dying was something that happened at least four times a day...

Dean watches Crim with a calculating look in his eyes. And Jax seems to tense as if preparing for a fight. Mia smiles sweetly at the Orenda wolves and leans her head on Jax's shoulder causing him to slightly jump before he realizes it is her. He relaxes at her touch. Caleb, who had fallen into a light sleep in Crim's lap, mumbles something and wraps his arms around her waist... Crim glances at Caleb and seems to relax slightly but her expression remains slightly colder and harsher then before her focus faded...

Conner shivers slightly before he leans against the couch behind him and inches slightly closer to Crim and lays his head on her shoulder. It doesn't take long before he dozes into a light sleep like his twin.

Nazar and Naven share a amused glance before Nazar kicks Dean and knocks him sideways causing him to snap back into the world and not in his head. Naven starts chuckling quietly trying not to laugh... Nazar grins at him and starts making ridiculous faces at Naven...

Nola relaxes a little when she sees that Crimson is returning back to normal... Well enough to put part of her facade back together... She hadn't know Crimson that well when she was little but she knew that Crimson hide a lot behind that cold and harsh exterior... Nola didn't have to be a rocket scientist to know even Dean and Jax, who were her chosen second-in-commands, didn't know everything she hid.

Shadow watches the whole change which only took a minute or two before Nazar and Naven distracted the Borealis Wolves... While Conner and Caleb distracted Crim. Before glancing toward the two male Orenda and motioning them to sit and join them.

@@ I'm back... I've been working a lot of night shifts... So I've been super tired... @@
@@ Also I think Crim is beginning to realize the situation she stuck everyone in...How her pack is now in danger... And the Orenda wolves now have something that Lila would love to keep in her grasp and under her control. The Borealis Pack's biggest powerhouses... And most dangerous wild cards... @@
