Kyle nods and looks contemplative for a moment.
<If we're going to see my uncle I should probably tell you guys that he is kind of... Evil.>
"...
How evil?"
<Meh. I can take 'im.>
"The answer is no." Her tone is flat, business-like, and to the point, not the voice that one would expect from a girl her age. "I'm not going to enter into a relationship here. Even if I wasn't already betrothed, I am not allowed to enter into romantic relationships, and I know that even Selina would want something like that eventually. Therefore, I will not now, nor will I ever, consider dating you, Selina."
Then she turns and heads off to her room, slamming the door behind her.
Selina is in a state of shock now, feeling liked she just go hit by a truck!
Angel looked a bit sad and worried, although she had already known that this would happen.
Nuriel mind-mutters indistinctly but angrily.
"Y-y-your her... fiance...!?!?" Selina is stunned now, really confused at this point.
"Eh, it's entirely a political arrangement. To be honest I think of her more like a sister."
<And so of course you're going to marry her.>
<He can't hear you.>
<I know, but it makes me feel better.>
<Why?>
<...I'm not sure.>
What we have to do is make Demons Run okay with this, and then convince Yuri's family you're rich."[/b]
<I'm game.>
<... Don't.>
Nuriel mind-grumbles.
<Some people just don't wanna be happy...>
"No. Let her rest."
Richard motions Angel, Conny, Kyle, Marie, Tori and Selina to come with him.
Angel follows and takes off the bracelet when asked.
Will you make the rest of the group come so I can at least try and fix Angel?
Angel hides behind Selina, muttering about a "low-lih-con".
"Betray her trust, or see two of our friends suffer? If none of you want to go with this, put your bracelets back on, and go back in, and I will not pursue the matter any further.
Otherwise, keep your mouths and your minds shut."
"I'm in."
<Do you think that my support would help or hinder the acceptance?>
<I don't know.>
"I understand that. So we're not doing this."
Richard shakes his head.
"Aw..."
"Sh-sh-she sounded... s-s-so mad... so mad..." Selina is crying loudly now. (DC 10 Yuri, DC 17 for everyone not present)
[14+8]
"Selina!" Angel ran from the room, slipping her bracelet back on (on the other hand) and running towards Selina.
<If there's not a good explanation for this...>
