Ch10 Pg9

Leona: Just you try it Goob-blez! *comes out with a badger’s look at Ben* If even so much as a hair is harmed on my body! The moon is going to look mighty fine in comparison to where my DAD and CECIL will send you!

Ben: *looks unimpressed* Sure.

Leona: *eyes Ben* Cecil’s just ITCHING to prove that you’re evil!

Ben: *sighs* You don’t have to tell me. It was like pulling teeth trying to get him to believe the story I downed on him about all this. But do you know how he’d react if he knew the truth? *shakes head* Cecil can’t accept the truth of his own world… much less try to comprehend a crossing from another.

KJ sez:

I like Leona’s yelling face…

Agla sez:

’The truth? You can’t handle the truth!’ At last, the Excuse comes out…*waits with ears pricked*

Pen sez:

So true about poor Cecil

Aywren sez:

Yeah… poor Cecil tends to be the last to know a lot of things — simply because most of the time, people are worried about how he’ll not deal very well with certain issues. ~~;

Agla sez:

Poor boy, everything sort of seems to happen *to* him, doesn’t it? Suddenly. When he doesn’t expect it. He’ll be settling down into some semblance of normality, and then the Universe jumps out from behind the door and goes boo at him. ^.^

Well…in this case…it’s the Multiverse that’s waiting to jump out and go boo at him!

Aywren sez:

Yeah, that’s pretty much how my Cecil feels most of the time. It was all peaceful and quiet… until Golbez came back. Heh. XD

Pen sez:

Funny how realtives showing up unexpectedly tend to do that…hmmm.

Agla sez:

*extends that thought, and wonders how bad, exactly, Cecil’s reaction will be when he finds out about KY. Mysterious lights on mountains are all very well because you don’t have to *deal* with them, but Aiden’s just walking trouble-a disaster zone with feet! Not to mention all the Lunarian ‘friendsandrelations’ that’ll turn up in the Borderlands in the fullness of time…*

Aywren sez:

It takes Cecil a long… long… time… to deal with it. Ben kinda makes sure that he’s the last to know. ^^;

de lethe sez:

well speaking from exp on this if you screw up or if they belive youre evil your brothers or sister are the last people you want to know. honestly how was i suppose to know it would blow up.;?

Agla sez:

And besides that, Cecil’s a ’sleepwalker’.

Pen sez:

Cecil sleepwalks???

Aywren sez:

As disturbed as he is by all the stuff going on, he might? Right on down to the kitchen for another pint of kantal. Hehe. I think Agla is referring to Cecil’s dream-visions. (?)

Pen sez:

hmmm he might, I never studied in depth on sleep walking in my psych class. We kinda glazed over sleep abnormalities. You know I actually read that chapter in Darkstar.

Aywren sez:

Which chapter in Darkstar? o.O

Agla sez:

Actually I meant the way he acts in general…probably comes of a far too interesting life…the way he just wants to sleepwalk through life, fall into routine, have normality, not have to *think*. Understandable, considering…but I’m glad that his friends and enemies keep putting metaphorical hairbrushes in his bed, cause when he’s awake he’s lovely.

Aywren sez:

Never thought about it like that before, Agla. But I’d say you’re right on the nose with that. He’s given every opportunity to see — and chooses not to most of the time.

Agla sez:

*nods*He’s worth the effort of waking, though. That’s why I say woot to sir Ben-rabbit for the Darkstar Debacle!

Agla sez:

Feel free to raise as much chaos as you like, say I! I *like* Sess, in a weird way. And sleepwalking does not suit him. ^.^

Pen sez:

I believe it was the second chapter in Darkstar. It was quite a long time ago, before I started writing Heirs. Wow Agla, that’s such an deep way to put it hehheh, wish I would have thought of that.

Ben sez:

We aim to please! ^^
