    there was nothing that made aegis more anxious than having to talk with people. her first real memory was of waking up in a small clearing, surrounded by her future clanmates. she had decided to join the clan for a small while, hoping to leave once she recovered her memories, but apparently that was not possible anymore. the last thing that happened was quite unexpected- the leader of sunclan himself had decided to adopt a complete nobody like herself. it left a bit of a sour taste in the feline's mouth, so immediately following her return to camp, she declared that she would be taking the week off to thoroughly explore the territory before doing anything else. it was an adequate excuse for taking an excruciatingly long walk in order to clear her head. it was also an excuse for her roleplayer to be inactive the whole week.


    fourth wall-breaking aside, the young sunclanner noted that a week had passed with a sigh. the light-colored feline found herself pacing around a small square within solar city, the largest portion of sunclan territory. it was also the place she was most familiar with, with it being the place she was supposed to live and all. aegis felt her ears twitch a little, a sign that she was nervous. was she doing anything right? what if she messed up, and nobody actually came? she knew she should have planned this better, written up a script or something to follow. then again, if she did write up a script, it would be... fake. she didn't want anyone to see her as someone like that. aegis shuddered, the tip of her cream tail flicking around. luckily, there weren't many sunclanners around to see her anxious like this, or rather, not until she called out to them. it was important for her to give off the air of a confident, mature person who knew exactly what she was doing.


    she had no idea what she was doing.


    "hello everyone, i'll be hosting a meet and greet...?" fuck. shit. son of a bitch. if it wasn't for the questioning tone at the end of her sentence, it would have been a perfect line delivery. aegis had gone over what she was going to say about a dozen times, and she done fucked it up. great. she felt her face burn with embarrassment, convinced that her clanmates were going to judge her for this. in her own eyes, it was a horrible first- no, second- impression. somehow, the girl managed to keep up a calm demeanor, though any close observers would be able to tell that her fur was slightly raised and that her muscles were tensed up.

    Kaia Arcanium Leonidas || 5 moons || Princess of Sunclan



    "Oh hello again Aegis! It's been a while hasn't it? I haven't seen you since you joined." Kaia commented, padding over happily with a little white ermine at her heels. It had been a new form Eleo was trying out, knowing that he couldn't just have Kai carrying him around everywhere. The two seemed to be everywhere nowadays, though she supposed they needed to work more anyway. She wasn't of training age just yet, but in a few weeks she'd finally be old enough to go asking around for a mentor and help out in the war more.

    IF YOU SAY I'M REALLY LONELY, YOU COULD FIGURE JUST A BIT — akuma baskerville

    who went over their lines in their head nowadays? nobody needed to do that unless they were an actor practicing on set. akuma surely didn't do that, and that was even outside of his falsifie facade. no one seemed to know what he would say next, as in the very next moment he could mention or do something completely unpredictable. it made for rather interesting conversation, but it also got him in trouble as well. it wasn't like he had particularly minded, anyway. he was supposed to get in constant trouble.


    "whoa, what's wrong? you look a little tense." came akuma's light, playful voice as he came trotting over, his fictional eyebrows raising. an easy grin played upon the handsome face of the blonde feline, his tail wavering behind him. "i dunno what you're upset about but try n' calm down a little, 'ight?" head inclining to the side, he would pause in his steps when he came closer and would sit down somewhere near kaia and aegis. the feline would lean over just slightly, seeing the little white fellow that followed kaia. was that supposed to be eleo? huh... he could have sworn that the little dude had been something else before.


    leaning back, he wrapped his tail around his paws and flashed aegis another faint smile. "the name's akuma, your friendly neighborhood prankster. nice to meetcha!" meet and greets were usually dull and boring and they were done to death. he guessed some people didn't have class these days, though he would say that individually meeting every single person in the clan is damn near impossible and rather tedious. he supposed meet and greets were the fastest way of getting to know everybody on a name basis.

    the first time levi had arrived, he had desired not doing the normal meet and greet that new clanmates or visitors did to get to know each other. he felt like it would give him a fake view of what his clanmates truly behaved because during a meet and greet, it was all prim and proper. so levi simply slipped around the territory, meeting people in different situation. hell, he remembered meeting his younger adoptive sister and ending up almost fighting his "brother", fall. he would introduce himself but at other meet and greets since he frankly didn't really give a shit of how people viewed him. the muscular broad shouldered male was relaxing nearby, staring down at the sloppy drawing of a flower he was making until he hears aegis' call.


    realizing it had been someone he had heard of joining quite a while ago, the young ambassador let out a small yawn escape his jaws as he rose to the action of meeting a new face. stretching his stiff figure, the japanese bobtail walked towards the group with his monotone yet piercing gray optics locked briefly towards alums. hearing the comment that the blonde made, he couldn't help but roll his eyes as he halted beside the taller figures, his dark figure standing out beside the brightly colored forms. "ignore the highlighter. name's levi. i'm guessing you must be aegis." levi had caught the name from the catsune princess, his metallic glare flickering briefly towards her before snapping back at the new female, oblivious to the fact that she had also been adopted by suga.


    ( mobile )

    indeed, kaia was one of the few people there when she first arrived in sunclan. aegis remembered her as the one with flower crowns and the little pet, whose name she had forgotten. surely, nobody would expect her to remember his name- after all, it wasn't like he was technically a full sunclanner, being the pet of a princess and all. still, for some odd reason, she remembered him being a different animal... must be her memory playing with her mind again. she felt herself relax a little as kaia approached first, and allowed a small smile to appear on her maw. aegis quite liked the younger female. "kaia leonidas, right?" she murmured, dipping her cream-colored head politely, oblivious to the fact that the catsune was a princess. raising her head up again, the young feline flicked her tail and promptly began explaining the reason for her absence. "yeah, but only a week. i took a few days off to get to know the territory better; it's pretty safe to say that i know it like the back of my paw, now." she had picked up the expression from a few other sunclanners she had passed by on her little adventure, and was eager to finally have the chance to use it in normal speech. it made her sound far more sophisticated, she believed.


    the next one to approach was someone she had never seen before. a handsome blonde feline, aegis felt a small wave of uneasiness pass over herself as the two made eye contact. her dark, golden eyes narrowed when akuma brought up her own tenseness. he was an observant fellow, she noted, keeping that information stored away in her mind for future reference. "sure, whatever you say," stated the younger feline, forcing her body to relax. if she wasn't careful, she would appear that way to people like akuma. the girl frowned, convinced that the dude had some sort of ulterior motive. there was a ninety-nine percent chance that there was an asshole under that 'fun guy' persona. nice, pretty people were usually like that. "aegis, if you didn't know already. it's... nice to meet you as well." oh, she had a surname now, didn't she? or, maybe not- she never remembered catching the name of the strange creature that took her in. it was sort of funny, how she was able to remember mostly everything about her new life and nothing about her past one. her memories worked in a strange way like that, so she doubted that she would be forgetting this first encounter with akuma anytime soon. what a major fucking weirdo.


    there was one last person left to greet. aegis looked around to see where the last voice came from, and was fairly surprised to hear such a serious phrase come out of such a small creature's mouth. the kid was fucking tiny, even to an average-sized feline like herself. her eyes narrowed slightly as she observed the male. "whatever you say. what are you, a gremlin?" okay, but the guy was seriously short. he stood only at her shoulders, so she automatically assumed that he was at least a couple months younger than herself. if not, then... that would be awkward. "anyway, that would be me. has, um, the leader talked about me or something?" there were only, what, four or so people there when she joined, so not many people would know her name. it suddenly occurred to her that she didn't know the name of her own adoptive father... she would have to change that soon.

    Kaia Arcanium Leonidas || 5 moons || Princess of Sunclan



    "Well yeah, he talks about all his children. I uh...ended up finding out I was his daughter maybe a week ago. This grumpy butt over here is also your adoptive brother." Kaia explained, Eleo weaving through people's legs for fun. He didn't really blame others for not remembering, its not like he talked to them much anyway as he normally stayed in a form of which he was unable to speak like a sentient being.


    (c)Luminosity

    leviathan had calmly be listening, his temper kept at bay. the day was sunny and the birds were chirping, everything was at peace. he was half paying attention to the verbal words that floated from the younger female, knowing she was talking to the others. one by one she commented and greeted until she reached him. his dull gray eyes suddenly snapped wide open for a brief moment, a look of wild bewilderment scarring his normal stoic features as he snapped his head back down to face the taller feline, his velvety inky black ears swiveling her direction as he heard the taunting name. gremlin? his muscular figure tensed up as the male ambassador's bored look now twisted to his infamous death glare, his metallic gaze now sharpened and full of annoyance. he stalked up towards aegis, a low growl rippling his throat as he came close enough to be nose to nose with the stranger. "alright listen here, twerp." he began, his voice laced with a sudden coldness. one thing, he did not enjoy was constant nicknames that his clanmates named him. "call me that again and you'll find your sorry ass tied up to the tallest fucking tree i can find." his spiky thick fur slightly rose off his muscular form as the short male glanced at the corner of his eye at kaia as she spoke up about them being related. so she was adopted too? he let out a small scoff as he turned back to his supposedly adoptive sister. "well if you really want to fucking know how i know your damn name, sherlock - i heard kaia just say it a couple of minutes ago in your weakass call of a meet and greet." he remained rooted to the spot, prepared to fight another of his siblings. he wouldn't actually harm them, just show them that he wasn't one to be taken as some harmless short person stereotype.

    IF YOU SAY I'M REALLY LONELY, YOU COULD FIGURE JUST A BIT — akuma baskerville

    akuma was indeed a rather observant fellow. and beneath that persona of his, was an event more dastardly character that hid itself away from the prying eyes of others. however, he wouldn't be revealing himself any time soon. he had to keep this act up if he were to get anywhere in this life, and the chain almost had half a mind to just drop the charade all together. however, he was there for a reason and he was also there to owe up to levi for what he did for him (as he has a weird thing about keeping promises, he was a special type of chain certainly). he leaned back in his seat, humming quietly as he nodded his head towards aegis. the femme was quite interesting. it was at least to the point that he wouldn't mind chatting idly with her— he had to get to know his clanmates if he were to pretend to be the social butterfly type, yeah?


    her words moved from him though and she began regarding the shorter feline that he had noticed had come over a little while ago. he would have warned her to watch her words around the short-tempered apprentice, but he decided not to act on such things. it was perhaps better if she learned herself and he also found it rather amusing when levi snapped at somebody for calling him short nickname. couldn't people be original nowadays? why continue to comment on another's shortness? if he had to come up with a nickname for levi, it'd probably have something to do with how pissed off he looked all the time— maybe something in japanese. originality wasn't too hard, but people liked to be lazy instead of creative.


    so, his cerise gaze shifted towards leviathan when the word "gremlin" slipped from aegis' mouth, lifting both of his eyebrows as a smirk appeared on his features. oh boy, she was in for it. and in for it she was. leviathan's previous expression of indifference had molded into an expression of chagrin and vexation, his steely glare becoming colder and his words sharper than a new knife. aye, this guy was funny! "uh-oh." akuma muttered, shifting his attention from leviathan to aegis again. he was ready to play the referee if it came down to a fight. he already had a whistle with him, if need be. of course, without a doubt, he was fairly sure levi would win in any fight if someone pissed him off enough.

    —— tonight we dine in hell | aesthetic board (by quill) *:･ﾟ✦


    At first, Sola came over to greet a sister she had not seen around but was glad to see. Then she heard Levi with his cold tone speaking to Aegis quite...harshly. My God, that child has a vocabulary. Well then, she assumed she wouldn't refrain from using her own in front of her adoptive brother. "Levi, would you please refrain from insulting you sister? Damn, I love you child, but if you keep it up the only sorry ass around here will be yours. If you are offended, please express yourself in a better tone with less colorful vocabulary," the princess hated having to scold her younger brother but insulting his sister who was just now opening up to the rest of the clan wasn't how she was going to let someone part of her family act. "Ahem, sorry Aegis. He's always acting like that. I'm your older sister Sola, Goldenblood of Warfare. I hope to see you around and get to know you more."

    turning his attention briefly towards akuma as he heard the small mutter, levi also managed to catch the appearing figure of sola. he didn't know much about his supposedly related sister since the arcanium family tree was huge as fuck so his metal colored gaze remained neutral not until she commented on him. his gaze only narrowed more and he turned to face her, the dark male clearly not in the mood to be put to the blame. he had enough of the damn insulting nicknames every single person he met was giving him, his temperament becoming shorter as the time went by. "how is my ass going to be sorry?" he argued, feeling as if he had yet another person in his disliking list. even if he was a child, he despised being called on as he now glared up at the goldenblood. "i have no clue how you could possibly fucking love me, i barely know you and you barely know me." he added, bitterness dripping from his voice. he grimaced as he heard her now focus on aegis like their argument was over, his scorching glare still locked onto her as he heard her comment about his behavior always being this way. "my behavior is only this way when every person i meet has to taunt my damn size. i literally greeted her in a civil way and her genius decision was to call me gremlin." he spat, stepping in so sola could fully focus on him.

    Dammit, he was mad. Well, she supposed she shouldn't have expected much. But she did know the perfect response as soon as she heard his finishing sentence. The princess stood as high and as tall as she could next to Levi, staring right back down at him. "Leviathan. Listen to me. I can punish you as I see fit, seeing as I have more authority over you. I love you because I've been around, I know how you act and I know you're my family. And you're not the only one who is undersized. I'm nine -almost ten- months old for Helios's sake and I'm the size of a new apprentice! Now, I know Aegis insulted you and that she should be more careful with her words so as not to upset you, but please Levi...she's just now starting to officially become a part of this clan by making herself known, and I'd rather not scold her for the time being." The Goldenblood would sigh, breaking her stare with the Warden. Her unmatched luminaries still remained away from him as she made a final statement. "Levi, please let her off the hook this once. I don't want to become unfavorable to you or scold you and I don't want Aegis to witness me getting so mad at you."

    was leviathan her adopted brother? according to kaia, anyways, but this was totally uncalled for. a "what the fuck" expression appeared on aegis's face as kaia revealed the relationship between the two. then again, the supposed leader of sunclan did just seem to adopt her at random, and levi didn't seem terribly surprised at all. maybe the solar commander really liked children. hopefully, her adopted brother wouldn't end up hating her or anything- maybe they'd end up getting along well and becoming friends.


    shit, too late.


    her thoughts were interrupted by a low growl, and as the cream-furred feline turned around to search for the source of the noise, she found herself up against the small male. stunned, she stepped backwards, not recognizing the person glaring straight at her. it was... levi, but he seemed like a completely different person. what was once a bored expression was now an intense death glare, and she could only imagine what had triggered this change in him. oh, right. the whole 'gremlin' thing. "w-woah! personal space," she quickly stammered out, golden eyes darting around to akuma, who was being useless, and back to levi. he looked like he was about to kill someone- more specifically, aegis herself. she heard a thread being directed at her, and immediately bent down into a low bow, her paws sweating profusely. she should have known better than to act out of line! the most logical explanation for it was that she was getting too confident with this social interaction thing. it was better to keep herself at a safe distance before trying anything stupid like that. "it won't happen again... sorry. it just kinda slipped out." her ears flattened themselves to her head. the feline didn't want to admit it, but she was... scared. like, actual holy shit.


    luckily, she didn't have to wait for the awkward silence in between to be broken. she heard a feminine voice address leviathan, and felt the male's gaze leave her. slowly, the female lifted her head up to face the newcomer. judging from the way she referred to her brother, sola was also an adopted relative of hers. and honestly, though they had just met, aegis admired sola already for even daring to scold levi, who definitely had some kind of murderous intent. even so, the shortie stood his ground. there was something admirable about that. the light-furred feline opened her mouth to say something, then changed her mind- this was suddenly some sort of family matter. even she herself had to admit that levi was right, and that she had been the one that was wrong. god, it must be terrible to be made fun of just for being short. "jesus christ, stop nagging him. you're just going to make it worse." aegis sighed, finally deciding to speak up. all she wanted was a chance to get to know leviathan better. get on good terms, maybe even become friends. this sola girl wasn't helping. she just wanted to do it all her own way.

    Sola would turn her head to Aegis as she began to speak, another sigh trickling out from her. Perhaps she should've restricted herself a bit. Oh well, too late now. While she didn't want to simply let her little sister stop her, the Goldenblood knew where the limit was. "Fine. As you wish. I'm sorry if I have annoyed you Aegis and I'm sorry if I have gone too far, Levi." the princess then a placed a loose smile on her maw, trying to jump back into a more pleasant mood.

    ):<<


    leviathan seethed in silence for a while, listening to what his older sibling had to say. he was tempted to continue arguing for he was rather stubborn yet he was never fond of constant bickering. the heavily built warden's sable black fur began to slowly settle against his figure as the youthful male kept his gaze locked onto sola's for he wasn't one to be easily persuaded with words. as he was about to object once again, he caught the voice of aegis. his stinging edged iron bright glare flickered over to snap onto the female, a clear dislike glowing in his eyes as the male bobtail didn't desire any defense. but when he heard the goldenblood apologize to him, his stiff figure slightly relaxed yet he kept his heated glare as the short male said nothing and simply turned away from both of them and stalked away, clearly not desiring to be there any longer and wanting to calm down before trying to fight a sibling of his once again.

    APOCALYPTICLOVE


    Well, the air was thick with tension here. The female was standing a few feet away with concerned eyes. Would they fight? She was not in the mood to be in a fight. Though it seemed to die of a bit. Deciding to change the mood, she would trot over and offer a nod. "Hello there. I'm Apocalypticlove. Pleased to meet you." She would offer with a wave of her tail.

    ♥ Well, hadn't he walked in at the perfect time? Raise eyebrows showing his curious surprise, the Commander slowly paced around the group of gathered meet-and-greeters as he listened. When his adoptive daughter mentioned the word 'gremlin' he shot his head back in a laughing wince, almost feeling the anger he was sure Levi was going to have. And of course, it didn't take long for that anger to show. Before he could even open his mouth to interrupt, Sola was scolding her younger brother and he was going off, only to leave shortly after. "...Well, wasn't that a pleasant start to your social life here, Aeg?" Sugaredpoison said with a nervous chuckle, taking a step closer to the group, "How was your week of travels around the territory? Did you find any landmarks you enjoyed?"
