Moons rise, Stars fall. (Edana/open)

"It's quite delicious, but very spicy" Edana smirked while dropping several bullion cubes into the pot. The spices mixed well creating a mouthwatering smell throughout the space. She was proud of herself. She picked up a bag of rice, picked out another pot, gathered water into the pot, turned the stove on, put the pot on the stove and then poured the rice into the pot. The cover that Edana had chosen, was clear so that she could peak inside the pot to see if the rice was cooking right.

She took in a deep breath; the spices filling her nostrils. She then moved to Ether, "Follow me, I'll show you" Edana paced herself as she walked to where the bathroom was, "It's on that shelf right up there" her head bobbed in the direction the the cleansing powder was in.

Her wings fluttered slightly, "Wait here for a moment" She ran into the bathroom shutting the door behind her. Scuffling, crashes and things being tossed could be heard from the other side of the door.

"Thank you, I wont be...." He started to say, but Edana snuck into the bathroom first and shut the door behind her. "...Long?" He finished, as he heard her making quite a rack on the other side of the door. He wondered if she was just quickly cleaning up the bathroom for him, so he said "I dont mind if its a tad bit messy. Im a guy afterall." with a soft chuckle as he pressed his ear to the door, as he tried to figure out what she was doing exactly.

"Dont take long, or dinner will burn." He warned her, so she woulnt have to panic if she took too long in the bathroom. He had a keen sense of smell, as he could smell the wonderful meal from there. His stomach started to growl again as he imagined the meal she was preparing. "Mmmm"

[Deleted]

A muffled speech could be heard from behind the door, "I can't have a guest taking a bath in filth!" Edana tossed her laundry into a wicker basket that stood off to the side of a porceline sink with brass nobs. She neatly folded a towel upon the sink for her guest, Ethar. After she was done she opened the door to let him walk in. She stepped out because there was no enough room for two people to stand in the bathroom.

"You may go in now" she sated abruptly then walked back to the kitchen where she continued to stir the curry. She turned off the fire the pot of rice sat upon, stirred it for a short while then placed the lid back over the pot to let the rice sit off to the side. She ran her fingers through her hair while adding a few more spices to the mix.

"You'd better hurry. It's almost done." Edana yawned. She was still exhausted from the long day of training. Her hands shook when she lifted them slightly, "Hm?..." she ignored this and continued to work.

[Deleted]

Ethar waited a few moments before Edana opened the door to the bathroom and said that he was free to go in now. "Thanks alot, I wont be long." He said with a smile as he closed the door behind him once she was gone.

Turning the water on to warm, he stripped himself off and stepped into the shower after hanging his clothes on the toilet. He felt the warm water rushing over his body, washing away the dirt and grime that had covered him during his training time. He started to feel very refreshed, as he wanted to stay in the shower forever, but his growling stomach told him to hurry up. So he quickly cleaned himself up, making sure he was squeaky clean, before he turned off the water.

Finding a good sized towel, Ethar grabbed it, drying himself off soon after. He picked up his clothes, went over to the sink, and quickly washed out all the dirt marks in it, so they looked much more presentable. He also dried those out, and dressed himself up again. He felt, and smelled alot better now since he had cleaned himself up.

Quickly drying his hair a bit, then hanging the towel up, Ethar opened the door to the bathroom, and made his way back towards the kitchen. "Feels much better, Thank you so much for letting me use your shower."He said as he poked his head back int othe kitchen. His hair still looked a bit wet, but it was easy to tell that he looked better now.

"Anything I can do to help at all?"

"It is finished.." Edana, before Ethar had come out, placed a plate upon a small, cherry wood table. A fork laid quietly next to the plate. Edana scooped some of the rice onto it then poured the curry sauce on top. Chunks of beef rolled off the mound, the sauce ran down the sides like lava; slow and hot. She stepped back to admire her creation.

"Come, eat" she gestured for Ethar to sit. She however, stayed standing her arms folded across her chest. Edana covered her mouth as she yawned, "Excuse me... was the only short phrase that escaped her lips. She mumbled it of course. By nature, she is a mumbler. Edana didn't exactly know where she received this odd trait from. She thought about it and figured it came from her mother.

Her head tilted to the right as her eyes looked up. She was deep in thought and didn't think to notice if Ethar had started eating, or even if he sat down.

[Deleted]

"Mmm, It looks delicious!" He said, as he sat down and picked up the fork. However, he immediately stopped, as he only saw one plate of the food out on the table, as he then looked up to Edana a bit confused. "Wheres your plate?" He asked, hoping that she would be eating with him. Without doing so, Ethar would feel a bit guilty, and uncomfortable eating by himself.

"Theres alot of food here Edana. Im sure your gonna have some to right? You must be hungry to." He said with a smile as he scooted his plate closer to her so that she may get her own fork, and eat it as well. There was a bit too much food on the plate for Ethar, since he was accustomed to eating smaller portions of food.

[Deleted]

Edana shook her head, "I'm perfectly fine thankyou, I don't need to eat..." she smiled reassuringly at the young man. She rubbed her arms a little to give them warmth, It's cold in here, no? Let me turn up the heat..." she again yawned. Edana covered her pale lips when she did this. She eyed the plate of food, "It does look delicious..." her stomach growled slightly.

Edana shook her head quickly to stop the thoughts of eating, "I-I'm sorry, I don't want anything..." she wrapped her arms around her stomach and walked into the living room. She mumbled at her stomach to stop growling. She sat upon the couch; crossing her right leg over the other. Edana waited patiently for Ethar to finish.

In her boredom, Edana began to sing, "Lay down in the grand river, Lay down in the grand su~n, Lay down, when everything is over, Lay down, when the war is done" the last word dropped into a low key. Edana took in another breath, "Call me when your heart is sunk, Call me when the night is dark, Call me when the blood has stopped, Call me when your light has gone~" Edana paused, "Follow me to the light, Follow me to the eternal da~y, Follow me when all hope is gone, Follow me and here is where you'll stay" her song ended.

"Tis' an old war song" Edana explained. She turned to face Ethar, "Do the Namekians have war songs?" her eyes were full of excitement. She'd never seen a Namekian before and wanted to learn some customs.

[Deleted]

Ethar gave her an odd look when she said it was cold. "Seems fine to me, but a lil warmer couldnt hurt." He said, as she sad that she did not want anything t eat, so he pulled the plate back towards himself, as he started to eat the fine cuisine. He was so used to Namekian food, he had forgotten what other types of food had tasted like, as he let out a 'Mmmm" sound as he ate.

He then heard her sing out of boredom. Her voice was like magic on the winds as he seemed entranced by her song. When she asked him if Namekians had their own war songs, he seemed a bit lost there for a moment, as he replied "In the older days they might have, but honestly, Im not entirely sure. If they did, I wouldnt be able to sing it properly, since I dont fluently speak Namekian. Although, When I was bored with training, I used to play an instrument. Its sorta like what you would call a guitar, but its a bit...different. had it since I was in school on Nor."

[Deleted]

Edana's eyes widened with envy, "No way! You have an instrument too?!" she jumped over the couch and quickly sat in a chair next to Ethar. She rested her face within her pale hands, creating a cradling effect. She eyed Ethar.

"Well? Where is this instrument of yours dearest guest?" Edana smirked, "Ahhh, Do you wish to see mine first?" out of her cleavage she pulled out an elaborate looking flute. White swirls encompassed the body of the woodwind. The flute also had tiny, golden leaves adorning the sides of the mouthpiece.

"Will you show me this...uhm..." Edana thought for a moment, [color=Teal"What is it called again Ethar? Your playing instrument I mean?"[/color] she cocked her head to the left and after feeling uncomfortable, she moved it to the right.

[Deleted]

"Oh I just call it my strings. Been away from Nor so long, I sorta forgot what it was actually called." He said, as he watched her spring with excitement, and sit down beside him and pull out what looked like a flute from between her love pillows.

He eyed the flute with a smile as he gave it a quick look over. "A Finely crafted instrument. I bet you can play the most beautiful of music with that." He said, as he heard her ask where his instrument was. "Er, Its back on Namek. I didnt have it on me when I died. I dont exactly carry that kind of stuff into battle, I do apologize." he replied, looking a bit embarassed.

"Im not really that great at playing the strings, which is odd. I should be good at something musical, since I am named after the Noran god of music, love, and pleasure. Maybe it was just a coincidence that I was named after him, cause well... Im not great at any of the things hes known for..." He said, his cheeks red with embarassment. He occupied himself with finishing the delicious meal she had prepared for him, although he left a third of a plate full. "Mmm, that was good, Thank you. Sorry I didnt finish it all, Im not used to such a large amount of food."
