Murky Association (Astrid/Open)

[Jayr Byrne]

Enter Byrne Family.

The soft turn of the key as Jayr was about to let herself in as the door did the opening itself. A small woman just a few inches shorter than Jayr stood in the doorway, her features beautifully ornate with the exception of a small jagged scar on her cheek. Wearing a Spring Dress the woman tapped her foot on the edge of the house's edge and pursed her lips as if trying to come up with her words.

"Jayr, what have I told you about leaving the house and not being fully clothed?"

The expression as if she'd done this before, but the words sounding harsher as if last time she was briefer. Jayr's expression however innocent as she sized up her garb.

"Well I am actually fully clothed, Pajama bottoms are all the rage now, right Astrid?"

With a turn of her head she'd cue Astrid's entrance which would be met wit a single resolve. Jayr's mother going doe eyed and innocent reverting from her harsh start.

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't realize we had company, Come in come in can I get you both anything?"

Jayr wicked a wide grin as she followed her mother in only stopping to hurry Astrid along for the ride. In a way Astrid was her Trojan horse, A way into her mother's soft spot. As they followed her in the house stretched on, the back part of the room looking fairly normal from the inside, small rooms, tiled floors, a sliding door to reveal the back beach.

"Hello there beautiful." The chirping noise from her step-father who sat absent minded reading the paper at his designated seat.

"Alexi!" Jayr would bolt happily throwing herself into a hug over him. Alexi was quite possibly her favorite person in the world. The hard laugh exiting his lips as he held her there for a second disregarding his paper. "Oh and we have company," Standing and settling Jayr off to the side easily he'd extend a hand of welcome, "Hello, I'm Alexi Stukov welcome to our home." Always the nicest person in the house.

[Astrid Sudeki]

Of course she had been a bit nervous about going to the girls house, and the main reason was because of the parents......Yeaaaah...she didnt do so good around parents, seeing as how she had lost both of hers in a single night right before her own eyes.......

Hell she had held her Father as he died...watched them slit her mothers throat.........tossing her aside as though she was nothing....

It was why she did not sleep at night...why she was afraid of the dark and why she was the girl she was today......So closed off from everything to the point of not even being able to make friends......

Yet sure enough, as she entered into the house, she was instantly greeted by a woman who was clearly Jayr's mother.....A smile instinctively spreading onto her lips, though it was more polite than anything.....

"No Ma'am. I am fine, thank you."

She spoke the words in her soft, girly tone, once more being the same girl she had been when her parents were still alive. Habit.....nothing more.....

Then a males voice filled the room, and blue eyes caught sight of him just as Jayr went to him........A little part of Astrid dying inside at the sight, though she easily fought back the pain and the tears she would no doubt cry when she was again home......alone....

"Astrid Sudeki. It is a pleasure to meet you. You have a very lovely home."

Okay, so maybe it was a bit harder to breath right now, hard to really focus on anything other than the strong urge to run and forcing herself to stay in one place......She could do this....May not like it.....But she could none the less........

[Jayr Byrne]

Theres a girl in there?!

"No Ma'am. I am fine, thank you."

Jayr's head cocked quickly to catch the actual feminine tone to her voice, wow and actually not trying to get her to act girly brought it out in her, strange. This was something a scientist would spasm over trying to relate the relevance and so Jayr was quickly entranced bouncing back up awkwardly staring at Astrid before averting her gaze and hurrying to the refrigerator.

"Astrid Sudeki. It is a pleasure to meet you. You have a very lovely home."

Alexi would smile and nod quickly a calm composure to his very existence as nothing seemed to unnerve the man nor catch him off guard. He was a pillar of strength in an unruly and chaotic world.

"Theres no need to be so formal, make yourself comfortable Astrid, actually you're the first friend Jayr's brought home so its nice to have you."

If Astrid were to look Jayr's way the girl would have a little glimmer in her eye with a wide grin. In the same instant Sacha Byrne would make a very obvious nod of her head towards Alexi not once but twice to suggest they leave the room. "Oh pardon me, its great to meet you Astrid we'll just leave you two alone."

They'd leave quickly to leave the two alone to which Jayr would pull out a box of cherries, sit on the counter and grin in between chewing them. "so?"

[Astrid Sudeki]

She caught that look and inside she was mentally cursing herself. Fuck! Damn her and her traditional ways. Then as the parental units left the room she would revert back to her "normal" self simply stuffing her hands back into the pockets of her jeans and looking about the house.....

Anywhere of course except Jayr's face. Yeah like she needed to look at her to know what kinda look she was getting.

Though eventually she was forced to as the other girl spoke up, a little raise of her brow before turning to face Jayr and looking at her almost as though she were confused about the question.

Yes....Play stupid.....That one always works...

"What?"

Her eyes turning away once more as she brushed her tongue over her lips and then began to pace about the expanse of the room, yes paying attention to small fixtures and things of that nature....Trying to avert her attention toward anything else besides her actions just now.

"Nice family...."

Not really bothering to let Jayr press her any further on the matter. Or at least that was her goal.......Once more locking away those pained emotions that came forth upon the whole meeting the parents thing......

No use in dwelling on the past right now....That was what her night times were for......

[Jayr Byrne]

I have you now >=D

Jayr stared down her prey now intensely, yes when she says prey she meant it. In a very nerdy sense of putting things together it was as though the girl had taken her deflector shields down and was weak. Now was the optimal time to pounce as fire her photon lazers. Jayr simply began kicking her feet against the wooden back drop of the table and smiling innocently.

"So...." She'd pounce down from her perch closing in the distance and pressing Astrid into a corner of he house where she wouldn't be escaping from.

"There really is a girl in there isn't there?"

Jayr would giggle softly pressing back her hair and then leaning closer to pinch Astrid's cheeks quickly. "Cute."
