Visiting those young ones (OPEN/VARIA)

[Cesarina Del Fiore]

Awww it was such a beautiful day today! Perfect for visiting the little ones in the Varia, poor things were always over working themselves on trying to keep the family stable even though they were split up, they were still family and that's all that mattered. It still made her rather upset though, she was sure Tsunayoshi would NEVER have wanted this kind of outcome for his family. Even though the man never wanted to be the 10th boss of the Vongola family he would never have wanted them to dived and fight one another.

Vongola was the strongest when they were standing together.

Its all because of the heirs and wanting more power. Greed was in human nature no doubt but for them, they couldn't couldn't to be so split like this. It was suffering to everyone in the family.

But her time has passed, her attempts of trying to unify the Vongola is long since gone. Its up to the younger generation now...even though she doesn't look forward to the ring battles she will want them, they were all her bambino's and bambina's.

Opening the door to the place, her face lit up upon spotting one of the Varia, “Hiko-chan!” She shouted, having the black haired male look towards her with his expression showing light confusion. She felt sorry for him out of all of the Varia. Takehiko, a child when he was brought to the Vongola family with a collar around his neck, a blank slate that only knew how to take orders and instinctively attack those with a killing intent, with scars and even healing wounds on his body he was the perfect killing toy, and Cesarina cursed whoever it was that did that to him.

Over the passed years however he was doing better, being more human. Though the poor thing could barely read or write. But even still...he was much too skinny! “Oh its been so long!” She chirped before embracing him with her massive form. It was always funny how he would tense up, unsure how to respond to such a thing and he did not fail her as he did exactly that. After a few minutes she pulled pack with a kiss to his cheek, leaving a black stain from her lipstick, and quickly reached into her basket and pulled out a cupcake for him.

He had a horrible sweet tooth much like Arashi, but he needed some more fat on him, he was just so skinny, “Here, here.” Placing it in his hand she parted way with him with a happy, “Don't miss dinner! I brought food for all of you!” and headed off to meet the troublesome leader of the Varia.

Getting to the place where she KNEW he would be she slammed out the door, not even bothering to knock, “Arashi-chan! I have come to visit~” She sang out. Now anyone who knew her, knew that her singing out something...was bad, and you'd better prepare for a wooden spoon.

So little time to not do it. It was amazing that any work actually got done with a philosophy such as that one; however, the Captain of the Varia was indeed a crafty one who well knew the ways of slacking off when it came to work. Eventually it would get done and he'd kick himself for not doing it earlier...then he'd done it again. Paperwork and other types of work was just so...boring. All work and no play made for a dull thing anyway. The sounds of shouting sent Kuroshi, Arashi's box animal who spent most of his time outside of his box, into action. Taking the sounds of a certain woman as a cue, Kuroshi jumped onto Arashi's stomach on the large sofa in his office where the man was napping contently. Once there, his tail started beating rapidly against Arashi's thigh. "I'm awake...hhn...." he was about to interrogate the Sky Wolf box animal when his answer came barging into his office and Arashi groaned slightly, flinging an arm over his face as he hastened to push the box animal off his stomach - but not bother getting up once that had been completed. He'd been napping! He didn't much care for his nap's being disturbed, but he was't about to tell that to the rather large woman as he sat up on the couch, stifling a yawn as he gave the woman a rather bored look. Kuroshi on the other hand, was more than happy to see the woman from the way he was sitting in front of Arashi's desk, wagging his tail back and forth slightly. It wasn't that Arashi wasn't happy to see the woman...well, he kind of was not happy at all. She was the mama of the entire Vongola pretty much and while his own mother was useless, he rather wasn't interested in adding a third mother figure to the list. The second one being Squalo, of course considering how close the previous Captain and Vice had been. Arashi was rather...close to his own Vice captain...but the reasons that differed from Xanxus and Squalo. "Cesarina...nice of you to visit...I think..." Arashi drawled as he got up off the couch and headed towards a small table in a corner of the room that retested a coffee machine - while what was left of his coffee from this morning was cold, he honestly didn't care.

Because it was her birthright, Kaya didn't feel that it was something to feel proud of. It was because she was a Candidate that her parents showered her with praise. Why did they praise her for doing nothing at all? They only praised her for the things she was entitled to by birth and not for the things she earned on her own. She'd rather be praised for breaking every bone in her body to protect a friend than be treated like a spoiled princess. She walked through the door that lead into the luxurious halls of the Varia Headquarters, gazing at the entire place as she maintained a tired expression and let out a loud yawn to match. She was known for her rare moments of peace and frequent moments of pure rage, but a trip to the Varia Headquarters meant moments she could be away from her parents. Away from the source of her anger and self-loathing. She had to make sure every minute she spent here was calm, for herself and those around her. She made her way towards Arashi's office, though at a slow pace as she took the time to admire the Headquarters. She liked the Varia, as they were perhaps the only group of people in a thousand miles that didn't anger Kaya automatically. They were more or so, a family outside of her family. She would occasionally visit Arashi and refer to him as Ojisan. Not to insult the Varia Captain, but to get a reaction from him. Anything to grab those rare moments of happiness and laughter right? Vague words echoed through the halls, though anyone who had been involved with Vongola as long as Kaya had would know the owner of the voice instantly. Mama. She wouldn't be calling Arashi an Ojisan today, as she wasn't in the mood to be hit by a wooden spoon. She'd rather be shot than be hit by that. She approached the Varia Captain's Office and approached Cesarina from behind. "Ohayou gozaimasu, Mama." She would politely say to Cesarina, to score brownie points so she wouldn't leave the Headquarters with a splitting headache. Hearing Arashi's remark, she turned her head in his direction, "Arca-san, a visit from Mama is always nice. I'd love to wake up to her smile every day if I could." She cleared her throat and dropped her smile, replacing it with a serious expression. "I'm here to ask for a favor related to the Ring Battles and the training period that comes before it. I don't want them choosing something for me, so hear me out."

Again such a disrespecting child, but it couldn't be helped. Arashi was raised by Xanxus and Squalo of all people, hardly idea parents, much less grandparents. But the damage was done, Arashi taking more after Xanxus then anyone else, thank goodness. Squalo already had a granddaughter that followed in his temper, there was no need for another.

“Ah Kuroshi-san~” She cooed to the box animal, kneeling down before him to praise him and give him pets, “Its been so long! Your coat is gorgeous. Arashi has been taking good care of you, or is it the other way around?” She chuckled before reaching inside of her basket and pulling out some homemade treats, for animals this time, after all box weapons deserved to be spoiled too! Especially loyal ones like Kuroshi. Placing them in front of him she stood and clicked her tongue at Arashi, “You are much too skinny, have you been eating properly at all?” Really he was in his twenties, children and there self-destructing habits.

“Ohayou gozaimasu, Mama.”

Blinking at the familiar voice she turned to the doorway and released an excited squeak, “Ah my little Bambina~” She sang, going over to the youngest, even as she addressed Arashi, and swooping her up into a hug before littering her face with kisses. Pulling back she held her shoulders, “Let me look at you.” She gave Kaya's body a once over before clicking her tongue again, “My goodness does no one eat? You are all far too skinny! I saw Hiko-chan my way here and he is just skin and bones! Arashi-chan you should feed them better! We will need the Varia at tip top shape after all!”

Takehiko wasn't truly that bad but compared to her large girth to everyone else then yes, everyone was just far too skinny!

“You are so lucky that I packed so much food for you all to eat for dinner tonight!” She chirped completely ignoring Kaya as she talked to Arashi about a request which was sending her mind into overdrive. Kaya wanted Arashi's help in taking down Jack? Well this would be very interesting considering out of the two, Jack always had the stronger flame. But soft sky flames didn't mean they were weak, not by a long shot, its how one uses them that matters.

Turning to Kuroshi she gave him a large smile, “Would you like to join me in Kuroshi-san? This old woman has forgotten where your kitchen is~” Humming she headed for the door, “Dinner will be ready in 30 minutes, I expect ALL Varia including yourself Arashi-chan to be there in the dinning hall, oh and Kaya-chan may join us as well.” Turning she cast them a wide smile and waved her hand, “Have a nice chat~” Before she disappeared around the corner.

There was his father - who had never even met let alone cared to meet, idle in Vendicare for an attempted coup against Xanxs while he was captain to steal the Vongola rings. It wasn't certain if he was doing it on his own accord or the accord of the Notte or Giorno of the time, but either way. Arashi's mother had never been mature enough to even raise a child on her own and had abandoned him to return to a cushioned life with the parents who had disowned her because of him...Xanxus and Squalo were the best parents - fathers - Arashi had ever known - not that he'd tell them or anybody else that. Cesarina on the other hand...was an ideal mother. He'd never admit it to her, but he rather enjoyed it when she came around to visit. She was, after all, the 'Mama' of the Vongola and the Varia and any other of the children of the mafia whose parents were less than ideal. It was a welcome change to the cruelty of the mafia itself. Watching as Kuroshi basked in the praise from Cesarina for a moment and then opening his mouth to protest that he was not skinny. He ate plenty...of sweets that Kaoru made for him. He had a terrible sweet tooth, after all. That was definitely quite fattening, although his life-style didn't call for being too underweight or too overweight. "I'm not skinny. I eat fine and so do my Varia. We just...work off calories fairly quickly." Arashi stated as he finished his cup of cold coffee and left the cup on the table next to the coffee maker and then turned around to face yet another visitor. "My my. Aren't I popular today?" If Kuroshi were a cat, he probably would have been purring with delight. Instead, his tail just wagged back and forth as pushed open the office door with his muzzle to lead the woman to their kitchen and to, quite possibly, get more food from the woman. Food glorious food. Once they had left, Arashi slid into the chair behind his desk that was littered with various papers, but he propped both feet on top of it anyway. "So, Kaya. Regarding the training portion...I'm assuming the reason you're here is to ask for my help in the training?" [/style]

She tried to pull away lightly, her cheeks flaring with embarrassment. "M-Mama, n-not in front of Arca-san," she whispered even though the attempt was futile. She began to cover the young Mafioso's face in kisses, leaving small traces of black lipstick on her face. As Cesarina pulled away, she took the sleeve of her shirt and wiped the lipstick off her face. She smiled to herself as she did, Cesarina was always like this. Ever since she was introduced to her, she felt this bond that she hadn't felt with anyone else. Always looking forward to seeing Cesarina, and when she did she gained this sense of safety. As if everything would be alright. She smiled even as Cesarina complained about everyone being too skinny. Listening as Arashi replied and clearing her lungs to give her own reply. "I eat mama, I just burn the calories quickly. And if I ate too much, I don't think I would be as fast and agile as I am today." She would love to have a warm meal from Cesarina all the time, but she needed to keep herself in a good balance where she was never hungry and in a good physical condition. The Ring Battles were approaching, and her opponent was physically stronger and better than her. Keeping the balance was important to her, she wanted to earn her inheritance. As Cesarina turned the corner, Kaya nodded at the invitation. A meal would be good tonight. She turned her full attention to the Captain of Varia. He was a very careless man, keeping his feet on the desk even though important papers would probably be on them. Before she replied to his question, she placed her hands on her hips. "You shouldn't keep your feet on your desk like that, the papers could have nasty shoe marks on them." She put her train of thought back on the proper tracks and let out a deep breath before starting. "I.. I don't want to lose." She shook her head lightly, "No, I refuse to lose. But, at this point if Jack and I had a confrontation, I wouldn't be able to handle his physical strength and would probably lose." She didn't want to seem like a brat, so she decided to be honest about her capabilities compared to Jack. "Sure, I can break through Flame attacks if I wanted to. But when it comes to fighting him, I'm too weak. I should be better than this, coming from a line of extremely strong Mafioso." She looked down at the floor, not speaking as she thought. She looked back up, after her long silence. Her brown eyes looking into the eyes of the Varia Captain with determination. "I want to become the leader I know I can be. And I can't do that when I'm being pulled by my.. by those idiots." She had refrained from calling them her parents, thinking of the best word to call them even if it wasn't the most polite and formal thing to say in a conversation. "Please.. I don't want my Grandfather's legacy in the hands of someone else. I know it sounds selfish.. but I feel as if Vongola will go through another generation of violence. It was meant to be a group of Vigilantes, not a group led by a person who only believes in power. Please help me, he.. he would never forgive me if I let Vongola into wrong hands." She panted, tired from all the talking. She looked back down, awaiting the man's response.

He couldn't really remember besides it had felt like it had taken forever to deal with. He had gotten back last night and since he had to show up at the headquarters to work on his report he had decided to crash there for the night instead of his apartment back in Namimori. He was fine with that though because that meant he didn't have to travel a bit to get back to the headquarters and there would be less headaches here for him. His brother seeming to be the cause of the several few he had gotten as of recently. Once his brother finally decided to get over himself and stop bothering his older brother, he would be able to relax. That didn't look like it would be anytime soon so he'd just suck it up until then or yell at his brother. He had been doing a lot of that too recently and that was probably the main cause of his headaches. He was glad to have a moment to himself even if he got to do that same thing back in his apartment here his brother couldn't invade his space. It was like a mini vacation spot, which was really saying something sense it was located in Mafia land. He didn't wake up all too early since he wasn't going to be heading off on another mission just yet but he didn't sleep in all too late either. He was still the Vice-Captain of the Varia after all and he had things he needed to do. Some of those things included making sure Arashi was doing his work and taking care of him in general. That included getting his sweets together and hand delivering them so that he could check up on him. His first thing to do had been writing up his report though and that was also something he would deliver to Arashi once he made his sweets. Kaoru had been working on them for most of the late afternoon just making sure they were perfect because as a baker he wouldn't allow them not to be. He didn't want to feed Arashi defective sweets after all. Once he was sure they were perfect that was his chance to pack them into a paper bag and start making his way to the Captain's office. He wasn't expecting to have heard a commotion coming from the office especially not when he was suspecting that Arashi would be taking a nap right about now. He seemed to avoid the most of it though as he never passed by the Vongola Mama as he stepped into his office having gone a different way as she was being led. "'Rashi, are you behaving?" Kaoru asked as he walked in then paused when he noticed the Notte candidate standing in his office. "I'm sorry. I didn't realize little Notte came to visit you." He continued as he ventured further into the office now and dropped both his report and the bag of sweets onto his desk. He noticed Arashi had his legs propped up on his desk and sighed a bit at the gesture. "Arashi, you're going to make the paperwork messy and guess who has to clean that up." 561 words ♠ Arashi&Kaya&Mama ♠ And thus a Kaoru shows up.

He knew one of the reasons that he was even going was to hopefully snitch some food. As a box animal, he really didn't feed on anything although it was still a pleasant thing for them to do. He chuckled slightly as he turned his attention back to Kaya as she informed him to remove his feet from his own desk. She wasn't his boss at the moment, he did, however, move his feet for a brief moment to gather any loose papers up in a stack and place them aside. They were mostly just mission reports he needed to file. Honestly, he hadn't been on a mission of his own in ages and being cooped up in the head quarters of Varia was started to grate on his nerves a little bit. When Kaya began speaking of her capabilities compared to Jack and saying she wanted to win, but as she was now...there was now way she was going to win. In all honestly, Arashi didn't care for the other Vongola half. He seemed to be a brat. Sure, he might eventually mature. They didn't need eventually at the moment. Admitting her weaknesses and shortcomings was showing some minor extent of maturity. If he had that streak of maturity when he was the same age, maybe he wouldn't have been bothered by Alma's challenge and departure? No. He still would have been. They had been comrades before Arashi had taken his place as Varia Captain...It was his own ego that had gotten in the way. He didn't some somebody younger than him above him...Arashi definitely felt sorry for Remo, though, when it came to Alma. A small smile crossed over his features as he nodded his head slightly in agreement. "Jack may mature with age - I have to admit I was a wild child myself...maturity comes with age, time, and experience. While there is time for him to mature between now and the Ring battles, as it stands right now, you are far more mature than Jack Sawada. That is what the Vongola needs, remember that. They need somebody who can keep a level head no matter what." It was after he finished what he was saying that Kaoru entered into his office, asking if he was behaving. Arashi huffed slightly, looking hurt. "Of course I am! Don't I always behave?" He was delighted as Kaoru dropped a delightful bag of treats and his report - well only the former was delightful. He promptly removed his feet from the desk and stowed the sweets away in his desk for later. "Cesarina is going to smack me if I spoil my dinner - if you didn't notice her on your way up, Kaoru," Arashi explained lightly. He'd met with the wrong end of Cesarina's spoon more times than he could count."Kaya-chan, you know my Vice Captain, right?" He didn't wait for an answer from that before continuing on. "We're just discussing the training period between now and the ring battles. And you know, I'm open to telling your brother about the Varia to get him off your back." Arashi offered casually. Truth be told, he really wanted to tell Kaoru's younger brother just to see how he'd react to knowing his brother was a hitman...and he was in a group of elite assassins as second-in-command. His attention was back on Kaya as he smirked lightly. "You realize that I was trained by Xanxus and Squalo right? They weren't easy task masters and I won't be either. You can stay here tonight and we can start tomorrow. Good thing you asked, I'm bouncing off the walls. I haven't been on a mission in ages...I have lots of pent up energy," he chirped pleasantly. "I'll let Remo know I'll be helping next time I bother him and complain about his idiot brother. I think I might have a couple ideas too, but I need to talk to Remo about it." [/style]
