For the life of me, I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and that we'd never compromise..

• []He had been headed here to study when his twin had attacked him in the hall way, clinging off him as he walked along. He looked down at her frowning at her chldishness.[] "Marco please take me shopping! I am so bored I could die! Please you don't understand!"[] He was shaking his head the entire time.[] "Machella no. I have to study, I have an exam in two days."[]His sister threw up her hands, glaring at him and storming off. Sighing he shook his head and stepped into the room. Catching sight of her he nearly blushed in embarassment.[] "Sorry you had to hear that..."[] (NT) -- Marco, 18:22:57 03/16/04 Tue
• She had been tracing images on the glass with her forefinger, so wrapped up in her silent, homesick reverie that she had hardly noticed what was going on, but looked up when she realized she was being spoken to. "Oh... it's alright.. I've done that a time or two myself.. but never to go shopping.." (NT) -- Ithica, 18:25:14 03/16/04 Tue
• []He sat down in one of the over stuffed chairs, folding his legs indian style, text book sat atop his lap. Corner of his lips tipped in a half smile.++"And what would your little tantrums be over?"++He asked, one brow slightly risen in question. He was happy to have run into her, she was the only one in this mansion with whom he could have a decent conversation with.[] (NT) -- Marco, 18:31:13 03/16/04 Tue
• She sighed a bit, and then pulled herself the best she could out of her funk, like pulling up a pair of sliding pants, and straightened herself so she could get a good look at him. "I do recall using the line "you just don't understand!" on more than one occasion when my brothers were picking on the almighty Adrien.. and elsewards, over all sorts of things, like wanting to be included on their trips out, when they were playing, wanting to go to the library.." She'd made it a point though, since the age of fourteen, to not ask anything of anyone if she could help it, and it was for that reason that she was so independant in this household - she wouldn't even let the employees serve her. (NT) -- Ithica, 18:34:31 03/16/04 Tue
• []"I think it was probably the exact opposite with me. I was always off doing my own thing, looking at bugs or reading something, or just doign whatever came into my strange child mind, and it was my mother who was trying to get me to play with the other boys."[]He had beem something of a novelty to his parents compared to his step-brother who had been all boy, and trouble from the time of his birth.[] (NT) -- Marco, 18:39:25 03/16/04 Tue
• She smiled vaguely at that, and nodded a little bit. "I've changed a lot since my childhood days." She nodded soundly at that, as though remembering what a child she had been. (NT) -- Ithica, 18:45:29 03/16/04 Tue
• []Suddenly he frowned slightly.[] "Have you seen Benito? He arrived her last night...."[]He chewed slightly on the inside of his lip. He didn't understand what his parents had been thinking sendign him here right after rehab...a place where he would have numerous accesses to cocaine...[] (NT) -- MArco, 18:48:37 03/16/04 Tue
• She shook her head a little - she hardly recalled this brother, let alone the other, but she had been young when she'd stopped seeing Adrien. "No.. I haven't seen him.." Or if she had, she hadn't known it. (NT) -- Ithica, 18:55:30 03/16/04 Tue
• []He nodded, then looked down at his watch, quickly getting to his feet.[] "Excuse me...I was supposed to make an overseas phone call ten minutes ago."[]What he realyl wanted to do was contact his mother and find out what she thought she was doing sending his older half brother here. Nodding he left the room, closing the door behind him.[] (NT) -- Marco, 18:58:29 03/16/04 Tue
• She nodded quietly, pursing her lips as she watched him go. Her eyelids felt heavy and unusually dry, as she felt as though she were going to cry if left to her own devices. She assumed the position she'd had before he'd come along, watching out the window, as though they were on a ship, sailing to her homeland. (NT) -- Ithica, 19:00:19 03/16/04 Tue
• ++He opened the door, closing it behind him, sighing with relief as he took an intial look around the room thinking it was empty. It was as he began across the room towards the sofa that he realized she was in here.++"F*ck...there isn't one free room..."++He growled lowly under his breath, a scowl upon his very handsome features. He was dressed in a simple black, somewhat silkly looking button up shirt that was untucked. A pair of blue jeans hugged his hips, and fit nicely around his well formed thighs. Short dark hair was slightly messy, he didn't take all that much time with grooming in the morning.++ (NT) -- Benito, 19:04:14 03/16/04 Tue
• "Unfortunately, Hotel Tortello never seems to be without it's downfalls." She murmured, without taking her eyes away from the window pane. "One of them is that it's not in Greece." It was more as though she was speaking to herself as opposed to any physical person in the room. (NT) -- Ithica, 19:06:11 03/16/04 Tue
• ++Deciding since she hadn't even bothered to look in his direction that she wasn't going ot bother him, he crossed to the sofa, lying down with his feet crossed at the ankles, arms crossed behind his head. He had been looking for a place to lay down peacefully, possibly nap, or at least meditate, something he had learned in rehab, and which was the only thing that managed to take his mind off the cravings. He couldn't do this in his room, because sadistic Adrien had decided to put his bedroom right beisde some freakishly idiotic little girl who had decided to befriend him and continued to come into his room.++"I'd rather be in a cell then here..."++He muttered.++ (NT) -- Benito, 20:41:53 03/16/04 Tue
• She was feeling particularly morbid, and she didn't bother to look at him yet again, her fingers still tracing invisible patterns on the glass. "This is a cell." (NT) -- Ithica, 14:06:55 03/17/04 Wed
• ++He had his eyes closed and opened them at this, brows risen, and furrowed at the same time at this statement. He was starting to wonder if maybe this girl was a psycho.++"Go back to where Greece then."++He growled, he didn't want to be bothered with some strange girl and her weird little quirks. He wanted to find a space in this house where he could be alone. He wasn't a social person.++ (NT) -- Beni, 14:10:03 03/17/04 Wed
• "It isn't my choice." She finally sighed, and rose, straightening her legs, crossing toward him and settling herself in an overstuffed chair. She missed her family, and her friends. Her brothers were too busy for her, and she didn't care to befriend any of the girls here. "Why don't you go back where you came from if you dislike this place so much?" (NT) -- Ithica, 14:12:14 03/17/04 Wed
• ++He snorted.++"I am banished for one full year,...and even after that there is no saying I will go back. My family and I do not see eye to eye."++As in he and his step-father hated each other, and he didn't want to be any where near either Marco or Marchella.++ (NT) -- Beni, 14:15:17 03/17/04 Wed
• "Banished? And your sentence requires you to stay here, or is this a voluntary sort of thing?" She tucked her long legs under her, tugging her cardigan around her narrow shoulders a little more snugly. (NT) -- Ithica, 14:19:09 03/17/04 Wed
• ++"I have no money except for that which my mother provides, and she will not "support" me..unless I am here where "blessed" cousin Adrien can keep a watchful eye on me."++He said this while glaring into the fire place. If he could he would bash Adrien's head into the fire place, fists clenched, how he hated that man and all his arrogance.++ (NT) -- Beni, 14:21:35 03/17/04 Wed
• She blinked at him, and then almost rolled her eyes. Did none of the people around here believe in good, honest work? "That's right, you're an invalid who can't hold down a job..." She didn't understand people sometimes. "So instead of working for yourself, you subject yourself to someone that you hate." (NT) -- Ithica, 14:24:12 03/17/04 Wed
• ++He rolled into a sitting position, shoulders tense with anger, black eyes flashing at her.++"And you condecsending people are all quick to judge. The truth is I have already looked, but no one wants to hire a man fresh out of rehab."++Not that this admittance was going to bring him up in her eyes, thankfully he coudn't care less what she thought of him, he simply hated being grouped with all the toher people in this house.++ (NT) -- Beni, 14:27:58 03/17/04 Wed
• She raised her hands as though to defend herself, and then shrugged her shoulders. "Most intense labor places aren't picky about who they hire." Of course she was going to class him with the rest of the people in this house - even her brothers were like everyone else, but that didn't make her love them any less. (NT) -- Ithica, 14:30:39 03/17/04 Wed
• ++"Thanks for the advice miss guidance counsellor."++He growled, scowlign at her. he rose to his feet movign to the mini bar in the corner. He began to rumage through it, his back tense. he should have known it was going ot be like this, all these people thining down on him because of mistakes he had made, no one even trying to make an attempt to try and understand why things had happened the way they had. But then, he was used to being disliked, and most times he prefered that to them actually liking him, that way he didn't need to make an effort to keep them around, or get rid of them which was often the case.++ (NT) -- Beni, 14:34:37 03/17/04 Wed
• It wasn't what he had done that she was being condescending about - it was what he wasn't doing now. And besides, she needed to get some of the negativity out of her system... but wait... "I'd like a crown of ginger.." The whisky mix was considered a "manly man's" drink, but she could surprise the best of them when she wanted to. (NT) -- Ithica, 14:36:41 03/17/04 Wed
• ++He looked at her, one brow cocked in mild surprise, but then shrugging his shoulders indifferently he took out two glasses and poured them both a fair portion before setting the bottle back in the bar. Standing up to his full height he walked back over handing her her's before setting himself back down on the couch.++ (NT) -- Beni, 14:39:35 03/17/04 Wed
• She'd drawn her knees up once again, one arm wound around them as she took a sip of the burning liquid and then settled it on the flat part of the top of her knee. "Out of rehab then? I thought they made you stay completely clean of everything.." (NT) -- Ithica, 14:41:14 03/17/04 Wed
• ++He shrugged.++"I never mixed mine....not with other stuff...smokes, or alcohol. So this doesn't make me want it."++He didn't really care, he wasn't going to give up everything just because he'd been hooked on cocaine, he'd already given upo his dignity by checking himself into that asylum.++ (NT) -- Beni, 14:44:03 03/17/04 Wed
• She nodded a little, her finger now tracing insistently along the rim of the glass, the amber liquid sloshing lightly. "I see." (NT) -- Ithica, 18:10:57 03/17/04 Wed
