• She very rarely ventured in here, but the house was very quiet today and so she had wandered down, a baby blue simple sundress covering her young form, no short hemlines, though the neckline was fairly low, though acceptably so. Her dark loose curls fell down her back , held back from her face with delicate little pearl grips. Everything about her spoke elegance and virtue. She watched the girl quietly as she entered the room, before dipping her head slightly, making to leave, not wishing to invade. "scusilo". [et:excuse me] (NT) -- Capriana, 13:07:40 08/15/04 Sun
• Her eyes shot up when she heard the girl shuffling away, and raised a finely shaped brow - she wasn't much of a social butterfly herself, but she'd heard about thsi new girl in the house - hadn't seen her before. "Wait.." (NT) -- Ithica, 13:10:02 08/15/04 Sun
• She hesitates then, turning her pretty face back to the girl, she wasn't particularly shy generally, she was just very new to this new world, very far from home, and broken, in heart and spirit. (NT) -- Capriana, 13:47:28 08/15/04 Sun
• She raised a brow at the girl and untucked her feet, dropping her bare toes to the hardwood floor and making to get up - she wasn't shy or stuck up, she just didn't have much in common with the girls in this house, and there was only one man in the house that made her think he had any education at all, and she rarely saw him now with classes going on. "You like ice cream?" (NT) -- Ithica, 09:50:49 08/16/04 Mon
• There was something about this girl that seemed so different to the others... they were so outspoken and brash... it would never have been accepted at home... but this girl seemed much more like herself. She offers a ghost of a smile and nods slightly "Si... Capriana..." She introduced herself quietly, holding out her hand to the girl awkwardly (NT) -- Capri, 10:05:17 08/16/04 Mon
• She smiled and offered her own hand, shaking it with a firm grip. "Ithica." She headed toward the kitchen, marking her place in her book with a finger between the pages, looking back to see if she was following. "I've heard of you - I was beginning to think you were imaginary." (NT) -- Ithica, 10:26:14 08/16/04 Mon
• Her brow furrows curiously and she follows after a brief hesitation. She had no idea who this girl was, but she seemed much more grounded than the other girls, even her sister was as bad as the rest now. "Avete? Che cosa avete sentito? Non realizzo che ero stato qui abbastanza lungo affinchè il pettegolezzo circondassi ancora" (NT) -- Capri, 10:33:15 08/16/04 Mon
• She turned and raised a brow. "Noone around here hardly speaks that language of free will unless they're trying to romance one of the guys. She offered a bit of a grin. "Parlate affatto inglese? I haven't heard too much about you, just that you are here." (NT) -- Ithica, 10:38:23 08/16/04 Mon
• She frowns softly but nods, it seemed if she wanted to talk to this girl she would have to forgo her native tongue. Her voice was soft when she repsonded, she had lasted for a long time without english but ...for communications sake, she was left with little choice here.. "It is my language... my Inglese is poor..." she frowns a touch, settling down "But I do not want to romance anyone." (NT) -- Capri, 10:49:53 08/16/04 Mon
• She nodded a little, setting her book down, pages down to mark her spot on the counter and going to the refrigerator. She took liberties with this place because she had a bit of an understanding with Adrien. She cocked her head, pulling out a couple of tubs. "I also heard that you don't speak English, but I see we can work around that." She got a couple of bowls out and spoons, and started digging in, nodding for the other girl to dig in. "It's good that you don't want to romance anyone around here, cause there aren't a whole lot of guys worth it here." (NT) -- Ithica, 10:52:46 08/16/04 Mon
• She hesitates before filling her bowl with icecream, her dark eyes playing curiously over the girl before she picked up her spoon and sucked on some icecream before speaking again. "I do not want to be here.... I miss Italia... " She dropped her gaze to the bowl, the sadness returning to her dark eyes, but what was even left there for her? She had nothing... and no one. (NT) -- Capri, 11:04:46 08/16/04 Mon
• "I know how you feel... I miss Greece... but sometimes life puts us places and does things to us that we don't understand, and we just have to go with it." She nodded, putting the tops back on the ice creams and putting them back in the freezer. "I'm taking classes here that my papi would never have allowed me to take in Greece." (NT) -- Ithica, 11:07:51 08/16/04 Mon
• She frowns a touch and plays with her icecream before she glanced back to the girl "What did you do? Why are you here?" She just assumed this was everybody's punishment.... (NT) -- Capri, 11:19:06 08/16/04 Mon
• "There was some trouble with some feuding families back home and a couple of shootings happened. My family was close to the Tortello's when I was young, so Papi decided it would be safer to send me and my brothers here instead of keeping us there... so here I am." She shrugged a little bit - she'd put the awful, gutwrenching homesickness that made her lay in bed all day aside the best she could, but she still lived with a constant twinge of sadness. "As soon as things are clear, I'll go back. It's my home." (NT) -- Ithica, 11:21:14 08/16/04 Mon
• She nodded softly, swirling her melting icecream into one lake of mis-colored much before eating it (NT) -- Capri, 11:29:06 08/16/04 Mon
• "I never was told why you're here." She raised a brow, trying to get something out of the girl. "Your english is fantastic... it'll improve - mine certainly did." (NT) -- Ithica, 11:30:22 08/16/04 Mon
• Her dark gaze flickered to the girl before dropping quickly, brow furrowing softly, shame crossing her pretty features... "For disobaying my father... bringing shame to the family... (NT) -- Capri, 11:52:14 08/16/04 Mon
• She raised a brow at the girl, scooping a huge spoonful of ice cream into her mouth. "It's funny with the North American families, we could do things that our parents would excuse, but those same things with our families overseas would make them go nuts." (NT) -- Ithica, 12:04:56 08/16/04 Mon
• She frowns softly and shrugs a touch, her gaze remaining down cast, voice soft "My father found me in bed with a man... would your papa excuse that?" (NT) -- Capri, 12:15:24 08/16/04 Mon
• Again she shrugged. "He wouldn't be happy, but he wouldn't send me away, I don't think...." She pressed her lips together. "How old are you anyways?" (NT) -- Ithica, 12:18:25 08/16/04 Mon
• She chewed at her lip slightly, she hated that it would give her such a bad image, keeping up this lie... but she had been sworn to secrecy "Sixteen years old... " (NT) -- Capri, 12:22:45 08/16/04 Mon
• She grinned a little, swishing her leftover melted ice cream in the bowl, making the most irritating noise with her spoon against the porcelain. "Well, I still don't think my father would have sent me away for that..." Truth was, she'd only known one man in her entire life that intimately, and it had been just before things had fallen apart in Greece - she'd only been here for six months. (NT) -- Ithica, 12:27:31 08/16/04 Mon
• She swallowed softly, lifitn her gaze back tot he girl, unsure why she felt she could confide in her, but doing so all the same "We had married in secret... earlier that day... he was the stable boy... eighteen years old... we loved each other..." (NT) -- Capri, 12:34:29 08/16/04 Mon
• She pressed her lips together and nodded - ahh, it all fit together now, but she still didn't think that it was a reason to send her to America. She was pretty Americanized, she guessed. "That's... awful... so you have a husband waiting for you in Italy?" (NT) -- Ithica, 12:37:00 08/16/04 Mon
• She tips her head and swallows softly, pushing the icecream away from her, a raw sadness and aching spreading throughout her "My father had the marriage ...how you say...annullato... and had Paolo ... " She frowned at herself and glanced away, tears shining in her eyes, not finishing the sentance (NT) -- Capri, 12:44:11 08/16/04 Mon
• She frowned heavily, her expressive eyes showing obvious hurt for this girl, and shook her head. "That's not fair at all." (NT) -- Ithica, 12:46:10 08/16/04 Mon
• He eyes glaze over with somehting other than sadness, other than tears, more... emptiness, hopelessness. "No. it was my punishment... as is this. For disobaying and lying to my father. (NT) -- Capri, 13:22:11 08/16/04 Mon
• She wanted to reach over and give the girl a hug, but she resisted for now, still somewhat shocked by the intensity of her father's actions. "But still.. he's your father.." (NT) -- Ithica, 13:23:28 08/16/04 Mon
• She lifted her gaze back to the girl, her frown soft, almost knowing, explaining easily. "Yes... and I hold no illusions that he is perfect... or good or honest.... he is the same as all the others, like Adrian and the other men here. Its how our society lives.... yet we are expected to be honest and good and innocent and obaying... in such a world... " She was an intelligent girl, she didn;t miss a thing but held her beliefs and values dispite all the was inadvertantly exposed to. (NT) -- Capri, 02:51:37 08/17/04 Tue
