[b][i][u]Crash[/b][/i][/u] Crash’s face softened as he listened to Kathy’s answers to his questions. “A perfect cherry blossom is a rare thing. You can spend your whole life looking for one, and it will not be a wasted life when you find one” Crash grinned at her. “That sounds like it was pretty amazing” He commented. “I can tell you have impeccable taste...California also has some of the best waves” Crash added, he looked up realizing she had covered her face with her hands, though he could see how red she had gone between her fingers. He suppressed a chuckle at her embarrassment; it seemed the tables had turned! Crash felt bad though for making her feel uncomfortable. “Sorry, I couldn’t hear very well in there...” He shrugged apologetically. He caught her raise a brow in question as he cut himself short but he chose to ignore that fact, he wasn’t feeling the need to discuss his reasoning’s at the moment. “I can live with that” He grinned at her. “I suppose it would confuse the others if you gave me a new name, besides I’m pretty ‘Caleb’ is reserved for scolding purposes” He chuckled a little. “Maybe...maybe not” He grinned at her, he chuckled at the curtsey leaning forward in a bow before following her and closing the door behind them, he turned and looked at her with a raised eyebrow a slight smirk coming across his face. Crash literally squeaked and twitched away from her touch as she jabbed at his midriff. “Whoa! Easy with the jabbing” He grinned, holding his hand protectively at his side his face colouring under the circumstances. [i]It’s ok, your secrets safe...just leave the hand there[/i] “I promise not to laugh if you don’t laugh at me” He grinned at her, moving down the hallway though he was walking quite slow and turned slightly towards her, he looked around double checking there was no-one else in the hallway before he leant closer to her “It’s purple” He mumbled in a low voice, before pulling back color apparent on his cheeks as he pressed a finger to his lips in a ‘shh’ motion watching for her reaction, he expected her to laugh maybe even take the mick a bit. “As for the bruise, I had a run in with my own bookcase earlier” He grinned. “I’m going for a new world record of most accidents in one day...it’s going pretty well so far” He smiled at her. “I’ve got one final question before we go back in, can you tell me one thing I don’t know about you” He asked, aware they were pretty much back outside Zivon’s door he was rather enjoying himself just talking to Kathy. “I’ll offer you one in return” He grinned at her, trying to tempt her into answering his question. A truth for a truth seemed a fair enough offer...Crash looked up as he saw Eric walking towards them, a flicker of disappointment crossed his face before he could reset his smile though Eric wasn’t close enough to see it. “Hey Eric” Crash grinned at him. “Cafeteria this morning...I’m sorry I left before you could tell me about your power” Crash apologized, blinking as a tiny head poked out of Eric’s pocket he chuckled as the small girl eyed Kathy suspiciously, before reaching over and knocking on Zivon’s door.
