Closed X: The step into other worlds

Rhythm blinked his eyes open, and yawned. As his vision returned to him, he looked around and saw new people had arrived.
"Whoa...I must have dozed off for a damned long time..." He muttered, attempting to stand up but just falling right back down onto the seat.
"I don't think you'll be getting up any time soon. You look tired as hell." Raith said, breaking his silence.
"Aye, but still..." Rhythm yawned, as he looked up to see the newcomers. One of them, Storm, he recognized, but the other one...who was that?
 
Storm turned as he heard Rhythm's voice, smiling as big as he could.
"Hey there, Rhythm! Long time no see!" he extended a hand to him as he walked over.
Meanwhile, Darkness had just gotten a good look at Zora's face. Asleep again. Hadn't she just been chipper and awake a few minutes ago? Wondering what was up, she poked her. And poked her again. And she kept poking her until she evoked a response from the redhead.
"...Stop that." she swatted her hand away.
"Awkward is an understatement..." Frost coughed, removing the shawl from his face. Of course, he still looked like a busty, masculine old woman. "And I believe the boy said his name was... ah..."
"Mariano, thank you. Mariano Passerini. Glad to know you all." he brushed his ruffly purple hair from his face.
 
Jax giggled.

"You can remove that, Frost. I'm not gonna bite or anything...." Jax said, blushing, "Sorry about trying to take you away from Cyndra.

Minuki grinned.

"He's my boyfriend." she said.
 
"I actually find it kinda comfortable..." Frost muttered.
"No, seriously. TAKE IT OFF." Darkness snarled at him, making him jump.
"Y-yes ma'am..."
Mariano chuckled.
"Yes, yes I am." He stared at Frost. "Is that... normal?"
 
"Yeah, he always likes to crossdress." Deax laughed, "No, he did that to get away from my crazed sister."

"I am NOT crazed." Jax said, "Come on, tell me you wouldn't fall in love with a guy with those clothes."
 
Rhythm yawned once more, still phased from the small nap he had taken. However, he was awake enough to join in on the conversation.
"Aye, Jax, if you would fall in love with Frost with those clothes on, you are crazed."
"I concur." Raith muttered, raising one finger in approval.
 
Darkness had to laugh at that. She covered her mouth to try to hide it.
"They're.... right you know..."
Frost dove back into the closet, and came out again wearing his normal outfit in a few seconds.
"Heheh... sorry about that." he scratched the back of his head nervously as he carefully spiked his hair back up.
"How are you doing that without a mirror...?" Storm muttered as he took a seat.
"That is a very good question." Zora muttered groggily.
"Um... I got the skills?"
 
"Meh...I'm over that. Sorry, Cyndra. I gotta admit, he is a good choice for you." Jax giggled.

"Meh...glad someone knocked some sense into you." Minuki said.
 
Rhythm stretched, and attempted to stand again, but failed. Sighing, he leaned back on the couch in defeat.
"I'm just gonna stay here for the rest of the day..." He muttered.
"Good idea." Raith said.
"I didn't need your input."
 
Frost looked around.
"She's not... out here. Minuki scared her off, I think. I'll go and let her know you said so." with that, he sauntered off.
"Ohhh, if today hasn't been interesting..." Darkness yawned, eying Rhythm as he tried to stand up. "You gonna be OK there?"
"He'll be fine, I'm sure." Zora chirped. "Let 'im be."
 
"What she said." Rhythm sighed, adjusting himself slightly on the couch.
"Rhythm, if you need any help up..." Raith muttered, ready to get up if need be.
"No, no, it's perfectly fine. No worries."
 
"Maybe we should get him some water or something." Jax said, "That might put a little spring in his step."

Deax snapped her head up.

"Oh, I forgot, there's a bun in my- I mean, Acacia's oven. I gotta go grab it." Deax said, running towards the kitchen.
 
Darkness blinked.
"Oh, I hope she doesn't mean what I think she-"
"We all do." Windfall interrupted, returning from the kitchen. She had just taken some medicine and sounded much better.
"Although I did see something in the oven in there, so..."
"I... suppose that's for the best."
Meanwhile, Zora stared at Rhythm.
"She's right dear, that might help." she paused. "But if you don't want anything, that's fine... let me know if you do."
 
(xDDDDD No I didn't mean it that way...xD)

Deax came out with buns and cookies.

"I like mine with icing!" Jax blurted out as soon as she saw the buns.

Jax felt a plate fall in her lap.

"Hrm...that's odd, I didn't get a plate for all of you guys." Deax said.

"I just wanted one, and then plop, it fell into my lap." Jax said, "Meh."

She put some buns and cookies on her plate.
 
Rhythm yawned, adjusting himself once more.
"I think I'll be fine. No worries." He muttered tiredly.
"Which is a cue for water. Someone get him some, he desperately needs it." Raith said, sighing.
"Raith, shut up."
 
Something about that exchange made the two sisters giggle almost simultaneously.
"I got it." Darkness snickered, standing up and walking into the kitchen.
In a few seconds, Zora stopped laughing and sniffed the air.
"Do I smell... cookies?" she glared at Deax and held her hand out. "Sharing is caring."
Windfall facepalmed.
"Oh honestly."
 
Deax set a pan of cookies down.

"Everyone can have a few. There's more in the oven...so...." Deax said, "Enjoy!"
 
Raith got off the couch and hovered above the ground, stretching massively. Sighing, he went and got himself one of Deax's cookies and began to eat. As he ate, he glanced at Rhythm who looked at him pleadingly.
"What?" Raith asked.
"You should totally hand me a cookie."
 
Zora was the first one to go for the cookies when she heard Rhythm asking. She handed one down to him with a smile.
"Here you go, dear. No need to beg Raith."
Then Darkness returned with a glass of water for him.
"I don't care if you didn't want it, it'll probably help." She glared at her sister. "This is your job."
"Too bad. I already got him the cookie."
--------------
Meanwhile, in the room she had fallen asleep in, Kirita awoke to find herself still being held by Rai. She didn't want to wake him, so she just waited there for him to wake up on his own.
----------
And again meanwhile, two people walked toward the house from outside. One looked to be about seventeen, with brown hair, amber eyes and a patched up brown coat and pants. The shirt under that was green, and he wore simple dirty work boots.
"Come on, Amethyst!" he called in an odd Southern drawl, "Y'allre bein' slower than molasses in December!"
"Y'all sure this is the house?" A girl clearly younger than him asked in the same accent. She had hair like his, and similar clothing, but her eyes were green.
"I'm coming, I'm coming." Another girl in a blue coat and a short minidress with black jeans under that growled from behind them as she fought through the bushes and came into view. Again, her hair was brown, but she didn't look related in that she had a build far more similar to that of Spirit and Starlight.
 
Rhythm took the cookie and the glass of water, sighing.
"Hell, all this just because I'm tired? It's really nothing to worry about..." He muttered, taking a drink.
"Yes, well, when you can't get up for about ten minutes after you wake up..." Raith trailed off, sighing and finishing off his cookie.
----------
Raiquen was awakened by Kirita's shifting. He blinked his eyes open to have clearer vision, and yawned.
"Hm...Wha?" He muttered tiredly.
