-Dirk caught the first part and heard the second. He stared at her and said, “What facts? He is never after facts. Just adventure.” His glasses had a glare on them. He disregarded about the house and focused on what Jake could possibly be doing.-
-
-Dirk sighed and started cleaning his cup and looked at it. “By the way,” He asked loud enough for her to hear, “Where’d Jake go?”-
-
-Dirk watched her, scratching his head a little as he said, “Well, I am not adjusted. I have went so long without sleep or peace, I am not quite sure how to settle anymore. Understand?” He was trying to put it simply as though it was complicated, he didn’t want it to seem such to her.-
-
-Jake faded away with his hope powers. Dirk finally came out of his room to come wash the coffee cup and was silent for a moment. “I’m sorry,” Dirk finally said, meaning it legitimately.-
-
-Jake placed his hand on her shoulder if she let him, “I don’t want Dirk to kill Carolus unless there is proof he is entirely evil. You telling me what you did may have just saved innocent lives. I just need to go confirm it. Don’t let him know I left.” He released her if he could grab and started to hope himself away, fading to go watch them.-
-
-Jake stepped over and looked at it. “Try removing that portion and soaking it in vinegar.” He backed off a little and then continued the previous conversation, “So they raised him, let him play alone, then went back to raising him. That’s not natural. That could change the entire outcome, I believe. As Cherubs don’t have emotional links… by gum! Maybe he has developed them! Sporting good show, Casi!” He smiled at her.-
-
-Jake actually seriously thought before saying something. “He was raised by trolls?” He had to ask out loud, “Cherubs aren’t supposed to be raised. They are solitary creatures. They take over entire universes at times, either by force or kindness. He was raised? Legitimately?” He was questioning this as it was a big piece of information, wanting to be sure it was accurate.-
-
-Jake smiled and said, “Just to be sure, what do you know about him. I wouldn’t feel right killing him if he is innocent.” He still had his tea with him and took a sip. “Oh and sorry about him still… I don’t know what has really been wrong but I am sure sleep is part of the problem.”-
-
-Jake stood up to follow her. He looked right at her and said, “A cherub doesn’t really tend to have true feelings, just fake ones. Even if he liked you, it might be because of instinct. Cherubs mate with other Cherubs that remind them of their sister half. Don’t tell Dirk I said anything. Okay?” He offered her a smile.-
-
-Dirk looked at her and said, “I have been trying to figure him out with Helmoj’s help, but he seems to be a step ahead of everything.” Jake went to place his hand on Dirk’s only for the hand to move away. Jake shook his head and said, “I am sure he might have been legitimately kind. Sometimes, the line between the good and bad were so tootin close, you couldn’t tell the difference. They are just that alignment by chance.” Dirk didn’t seem to want to hear Jake defend the cherubs so he got up and walked away. “I think he’s just cranky from lack of sleep,” Jake made an excuse.-
-
-Dirk sighed and said, “Casi, we’re sorry we left you alone, but we had to. Do you know what red Cherubs are? They kill for fun, Casi. They like destroying things and watching others suffer.” Jake looked at Dirk and said, “Don’t tell her that, the bloke she was with seemed nice.” Dirk looked at him and said, “Seeming is different than what they really are.” He went back to silently sipping his coffee.-
-
-Jake smiled and said, “Well, I am sure instead of all these questions you’d rather hear what we were up to this entire time right? Well, he and I have been traveling with the others to try and rid the universes of red cherubs!” Dirk turned and said, “Jake, we aren’t supposed to talk about that, remember?” Jake covered his mouth then said, “Did I say that? I meant we pick flowers from different galaxies and explore and do cool things?” Dirk rubbed his own forehead and went back to his coffee.-
-
-Jake thought all of two seconds and blurted out, “What about a hunting dog? Or a god animal of somekind. They aren’t always good and whatnot but they make good pets from what I was told.” Dirk finally sipped the coffee and seemed to be trying to ignore the conversation.-
-
-Jake was the first one to speak, “So, no other contacts yet other than your pale lover, right?” Dirk looked over at Jake weird out of the side of his glasses and Jake caught the look. Jake quickly said, “I mean there has to be others around here. Maybe a nice male or female? Perhaps even an animal or two or five.” Dirk turned his attention back to his coffee, Jake continuing to ramble.-
-
-Dirk nodded and went back over to Jake to get himself some. He ended up choosing the coffee instead, his glasses hiding that he had been awake for a very long time. Jake was sipping some tea while watching them. Dirk was mostly just stirring the coffee.-
