Ashley looked up and, sure enough, there it was.

"Come on then," Charlie said as he took the lead. They arrived within moments, Blake pausing beside her brother as she looked over the building. "Kind of ominous if you ask me."

ooc;; Sorry for the poof. My little cousin was crying, so I put on some music for him to help him sleep - he misses his mom.
bic;; Ashley looked at it. "Not really, but I could just be used to..." He cut himself off. The house was white, of course, with the classic columns. Compared to his home mansion in Vienna, and Antonio's in Madrid, it was nothing splendid OR large, but it was still bigger than most of the other houses around here. "Come on."

ooc: no worries. I apologize for mine as well; got changed into something comfier.
bic: Charlie nodded, and both he and Blake followed Ashley.

ooc;; S'okay - I'm making Sims now, too.
bic;; When Ashley arrived at the front of the door, he reached out and gave it a sharp couple of raps. He was not prepared for the slightly hassled-looking black-haired man that opened it. "Are you Herakles?" The man shook his head. "No, but I know who you are. Herakles is napping - again. I'll wake him. Please, come in."

ooc: I love Sims. So much.
bic: Upon the invitation, Charlie ushered his sister inside. It had been years since they were last guests in a home, so once inside, they stood there, surveying the premises curiously.

ooc;; So do I omg <3
bic;; The black-haired man bowed to them once before hurrying out of the room. Ashley stood at one of the windows, a frown on his man. When the black-haired man glided back in, a brown-haired man behind him, he turned around.

ooc: xD
bic: Blake fidgeted with her hair a little nervously, while Charlie took a step closer to her, just in case.

ooc;; SIIIIIMS~
bic;; Herakles had a friendly - if not, well, extremely lethargic - look about him. He had green eyes, brown hair that reached his shoulders, and tanned skin, as well as muscular arms and a body to match. "You're Antonio's friend?" Herakles inquired as a white cat crossed the room, pawing at Ashley's feet. Herakles smiled. "She likes you." The black-haired man stepped forward - he looked oriental, almost, Ashley thought. "Aah, yes, but who are they?" The man asked, looking at Blake and Charlie.

"I am Charlie. This is my sister, Blake," the blonde introduced politely. He chose not to say they were pirates; they'd run into enough trouble with that.

The black-haired man studied them for a moment before nodding his head. "I am Akira Hajime," he told them all then, and Ashley nodded to him.
--
A few hours later, Ashley and Herakles were discussing things at the table, the white cat from earlier resting comfortably in Ashley's lap. Akira could be seen wandering around here and there, mostly tending to the cats with natural gentleness. Because there were cats. A lot of cats.

Charlie leaned against the wall, watching the cats amble to and fro with mild interest. That was, until the animals began to use his legs as scratching posts. This irritated him, and he felt very tempted to kick the felines. Blake just watched nervously from the doorway, from which place she hadn't moved from since arrival. However, approximately halfway through their visit, she began to feel quite ill, and now the mere image of her without an arm slung across her stomach to stifle the pain, was a rare occurrence. Charlie had asked what was wrong, and all she replied with was that she must've eaten something that upset her stomach. She dismissed him then, but he made her promise to alert him if the pain got out of hand. With reluctance, the brunette had agreed. She now watched him try and escape the cats, and she, too, was standing rigid. After a run-in with a port cat some years ago, she was terrified of the creatures, and still had the scar to prove her reasons.

ooc;; BAAAAAABY?
bic;; Herakles watched as Ashley's stroked the cat on his lap absently. "Sounds like you have thought of everything you need. Alondra will welcome you into the home, even if Antonio is not there. I will send a message to Alondra and let her know that you are coming." "I'd appreciate that very much. One more thing, though - your real name?" 'Herakles' smirked. "Philetos," he said simply. Ashley nodded, moving to put the cat down. Philetos watched him carefully. "You can keep her, you know. She likes you. She doesn't usually like people. Even I have trouble with her sometimes." Ashley looked up, surprised. "What is her name?" "Nemesis." Akira was suddenly in front of them, making a short bow. "I'm sorry, but it is getting late. I wish to know if you are all staying for the night, so that I may prepare."

Charlie pursed his lips. "We wouldn't necessarily want to intrude, but if it's an offer, we would be more than eager to take you up on it."
ooc: Wahaha! I have ideas in my head I-D

ooc;; I SEE DON'T TELL ME! I LIKE SURPRISES <3 bic;; "You're welcome to," Philetos/Herakles said, nodding his head as Ashley lifted Nemesis up, and, strangely enough, she leapt out of his arms to drape herself around his shoulders, tail flicking the nobleman's glasses. Akira inclined his head. "How many rooms will you be needing, then?"
