The Heylan Brothers {Arafin, Sleipnir, Yoru and Itaku} "The gang's all here....whether we like it or not..."
The girls were soon joined in the dining room by the Heylans, Itaku entering first after Katelin with the food, the other three standing to the side for now. Ara smiled lightly and gestured to the seats. "Ladies first." He said cheerfully, none of the boys moved from where they were. This was as much habit as it was being polite. The action of letting women take their seats before the men hammered into their brains until the words were imprinted on their minds. Although Sleipnir didn't look at her in case the glance was caught, he thought about Charlie for a second. Would he sit near or across from her? Or should he be somewhere less obvious? His stomach had another question: Which spot meant better access to the food? Yoru's mind was equally out of focus, the one in question this time being Julie. He could easily pass off it as wanting to discuss whether or not she wanted to continue to teach him how to dance, but that would also raise a little more suspicion. Before today, dancing was one of the last things the boys would have expected Yoru wanting to do, he was at a loss. Itaku and Arafin, however, where far more concerned about filling their stomach as soon as possible. The two were blissfully unaware of the different thoughts by their brothers. That however, wouldn't last long, depending on where the two sat and how desperate they were to get to those seats.

The Heylan Brothers {Arafin, Sleipnir, Yoru and Itaku} "The gang's all here....whether we like it or not..."
For a brief moment, Sleipnir and Yoru looked at eachother after seeing the gap between Charlie and Julie. Generally speaking, the two almost never sat next to each other willingly, they were just too different to get along one hundred percent. Sleipnir, the goofy bodyguard that relied mostly on brute strength. Yoru, the predominantly mature cleaner with an IQ higher than what most adults would reach at any point in their lives. In metaphoric terms, the pair was like trying to mix lava with ice. Silently swallowing their pride, they took their respective seats, Yoru next to Julie and Sleipnir beside Charlie, the who ordeal amusing to both Arafin and Itaku, who was trying his best not to snicker, knowing a death glare from both his older brothers would follow. Now on the other side of the table, sitting alonside Katelin and J.J, Arafin looked to Ita and gestured for him to take the spotlight. Beaming happily, Itaku spoke. "Well? Go on everyone, dig in!" He said, although knew that the boys would, like with seating, wait for the girls to start before themselves. Yoru eyed the wasabi suspiciously, as if it would come to life and bit him if he tried to take some, Sleipnir gave him a subtle nudge under the table with his foot, Yoru responded with a small, seemingly uninterested glance. There was no speaking between the two, but the message each one got was clear. "I dare ya." "I'd rather suffer watching you make out with your new girlfriend." Arafin could tell what was up, but said nothing, simply smiling and hoping that he wouldn't have to sit both of them in opposite corners of the room...again.

The Heylan Brothers {Arafin, Sleipnir, Yoru and Itaku} "The gang's all here....whether we like it or not..."
The boys blinked for a moment when J.J seemed to choke momentarily, but it appeared to be nothing to be concerned about. Watching curiously as Katelin took her piece and practically bathe it in wasabi, the thoughts were mixed. Itaku and Sleipnir thought she was mad to eat that much at once, Yoru was wondering how anybody could handle the intensity of such a thing and, more importantly, if it were a skill that could be learnt. Arafin, however, thought that he had a little competition in 'who could eat the most wasabi'. Ara, Slei and Ita all chuckled lightly when Charlie called the girl 'Dragon girl', Yoru simply smiled a slightly amused smile. Itaku smiled once more when J.J too had complimented his cooking, Arafin simply shrugged when she asked about them."We were taught that ladies always went first when it came to just about anything...and frankly it's one of the nicer lessons we've come across over the years, so you could say it's been something to hold onto." He explained, reaching out and taking a piece of sushi that had no meat in it. Almost mimicking Katelin, he smothered the thing in the green paste and heartily popped it into his mouth. "Lead mouth." Sleipnir muttered, not as good a nickname as Katelin's, but it was still something Arafin was quite proud to hear, since technically is was an acknowledgement of his abilities, however obscure it may seem. Yoru took a piece as well, avoiding the wasabi altogether and instead opting for the soy sauce, Sleipnir to his suprise did exactly the same. Itaku, the last one to take since he wanted to see everyone else's reaction first, put a little of both sauces on his before eating it, nodding in approval as to how much he had put on.

The Heylan Brothers {Arafin, Sleipnir, Yoru and Itaku} "The gang's all here....whether we like it or not..."
Sleipnir felt the light kick from Charlie, he couldn't help the small grin that came to his face, although managed to pass it off as him just being happy that there was food in his stomach now as he continued to eat, not that it was a lie as such. Seeing Katelin take more of the wasabi the second time around, Arafin raised an eyebrow lightly and smiled lightly. "I must say Katelin, that's quite an impressive tolerance for spicy food you have, perhaps you and I need to teach the rest of them how to handle it some time." He said light-heartedly, taking another piece of sushi, this time completely covering it apart from two spots for his fingers to hold onto it. Without even hesitating, he ate it as if it didn't have anything on it, the same sort of message could be seen on the resulting look on his face. "Do that again and I think I'm gonna gag." Itaku said, he could handle a little bit, but he still had a fairly sensitive tolerance level by comparison. Yoru and Sleipnir both nodded in agreement, it was hard enough seeing the stuff on a bowl, let alone seeing someone down that much in so little time. Ara simply chuckled and rubbed the back of his head sheepsihly, he couldn't help it if it took a lot for him to actually taste it. The other three stayed away from the wasabi this time, more hesitant now after their brother's display of indifference, deciding to either stick to soy sauce or have it on it's own. As far as they were concerned, Ara and Katelin could have the wasabi to themselves.

The Heylan Brothers {Arafin, Sleipnir, Yoru and Itaku} "The gang's all here....whether we like it or not..."
Arafin chuckled lightly as he watched Katelin do close to the same, albeit able to put a little more on. Jokingly, he bowed his head, as if in defeat, to her before smiling and taking another piece, forgoing the wasabi this time and just ate it, much to his brother's relief. Hearing J.J's request, he swallowed his food quickly and smiled, not even needing to think about his answer. "Of course, I'll be sure they all don't get into too much trouble while you're away." He said happily. Sleipnir refrained from groaning, as if Arafin needed any more authority in his opinion. It was somewhat consolating knowing that Charlie wasn't too pleased about it either, but he knew Arafin wasn't going to let it all go to his head. They could do what they wanted so long as things or people didn't get damaged, or at least, that was how the rules normally went. Yoru glanced at Julie through corner of his eye quickly, a little suprised by the question, but a small smile made it to his face. He nodded lightly, actually quite happy to do so as a matter of fact. The only other Heylan to hear this was Itaku, as Arafin was busy asking J.J if there were anything he specifically had to make sure happened, whilst Sleipnir listened carefully to get an idea of how much freedom they'd be getting under the change in power. Itaku didn't know what Julie meant by 'continue', since he had no ideawhat they started, but he quickly lost interest in favor of eating some more, easily forgetting anything she might've said.

The Heylan Brothers {Arafin, Sleipnir, Yoru and Itaku} "The gang's all here....whether we like it or not..."
Arafin nodded lightly, smiling a little and looking over at Charlie and Sleipnir. "Alright then, I'm sure we shouldn't have too much trouble, so long as I can keep Charlie preoccupied enough to forget about the computer." He said, although behind that sentence lay another: 'I'm sure that Sleipnir will be keeping her busy for a while'. Being his brother, Sleipnir, gave a very subtle scowl, since he was too far away to kick Ara at this point in time, the older Elf simply gave a daring smirk before going to back to the sushi. After a little while, Itaku and Sleipnir were both leaning back in their chairs. "Ita, why do you always have to make so much? I feel like I've doubled in body mass now." He said, Ita just grunted in uncertainty. Arafin and Yoru had stopped eating too, but they had paced themselves well enough to not be on the brink of being sick. Arafin counted the remaining pieces in his head silently, by the looks of it there'd be enough for lunch for them tomorrow, assuming the two Elves who over-ate were game enough to have it at that point. Unsure of what to do at the moment, Yoru simply waited for Julie to finish, wondering if they were to just go as soon as both were ready, or if she would wait for her sisters to be done as well.
{not a problem, it happens ^^}
