With a rolling of his eyes at the warning the Nightmare Guardian covers them with a hand to try and lessen the impact of using a dream portal. The bright lights do not manage to make it through his hand and the only after effect this time is a queasy stomach. [i]'It gotta be the positive energy,t hat's the only option at this point'[/i] He takes several steadying breaths to try and bring himself back to normal, his eyes still closed as he listens to the words being spoken around him. [i]'Boy, she really would be lost without her brother. He carries with him what she lacks, and vice versa, though I think he could live longer on his own than she could'[/i]

His eyes slide open as Enasi loosens his grip, his own remaining firm on the other. He doesn't want to let the other male go until absolutely necessary. He smiles at the feeling of the boys racing towards them, slowing a block away around a corner as to not appear suddenly out of nowhere. [i]'So well trained. Does my heart good. . .'[/i] Rasha is obviously disappointed not to have Kaila around, however he fixes his expression before they come into view. Finn and Starla remain properly tense until the familiar faces come around the corner, arms held up in the position of peace. As soon as they are sure they are not going to be attacked they approached quickly.

Inui shivers at the feeling of their negative energy, everyone else save for Seishu only feeling it for a brief moment before they lock it away to avoid making the dream denizens sick. Not wanting to drop their energy Fin and Starla walk off a ways to take up guard positions. Seishu respects that in them actually, knowing it's safer to have at least a couple of his guards at peak energy. He offers up a warm smile to the boys, they stopping several paces away to salute, fist over chest. “Lan, Ran, good to see you again, I hope things are going well?”

As their eyes meet Seishu's blood chills in his veins. Lan, the elder, steps half a pace closer, a faintly worried look on his face. “Actually Master Seishu, we received reports of recent activity on the palace grounds that had us all worried about your safety.” Ran offers a sharp nod to confirm and Seishu has to swallow hard to not let the images resurface once more.

“I am sure I know what you are talking about, and while there was some fallout, as you can see I am well enough, and still on schedule to come for a visit the day after tomorrow.” It is easy for the boys to read the faint hints of hurt behind their guardian's eyes, however their training keeps them in check. They cast a glace at Rue who'd moved just far enough forward from behind Enasi to gaze up at Seishu, pity shining brightly in his eyes though he is still unsure of what happened to prompt the outburst not two hours prior. The two look at each other for another brief moment, wondering at how much and how openly the little Dream Minion seems to be worried about their guardian, before turning back to their lord to await his instruction.

Looking down to Inui, who is not only no longer attached to his side like a leech, but who also seems to be faintly curious about the others of his kind, Seishu offers a small smile before placing his hand on the little one's back and pushes him towards the curious brothers. He resists for only an instant before taking a couple steps forward to stare wide eyed into their faces. The two look to Seishu once more and he murmurs, “Gem, I want you to stay with them a bit. Talk about things. Whatever you are curious about.” The brothers salute once more, accepting their charge, and after a moment Inui copies the gesture, a faint happiness shinning in his eyes for some reason unknown to him.

With a long sigh Seishu finally lets his counterpart go and with a soft kiss before he can object he wanders off towards the nearest human prospect, his steps only faltering a couple times before he's out of sight. The brothers look to one another, faint glints in their eyes, then Lan touches Inui's shoulder, motioning for them to follow the guardian at a distance. “He hates being openly doted upon, however he never objects to a little stalking.” Ran whispers covertly, making the little minion giggle softly despite his nervousness.
