Muses' open forum # 1

Held at the Parlor

The muses answers questioned asked of them by their writer: Aja

FrappeG: You should add the word 'GREAT' to my name!

Java: How absurd.

Yume: I believe many would disagree to that.

FrappeG: SHUT UP!

Caramel: As all of you can see from the written information above, everyone likes to tease Frappe!

Yume: Interesting

Keanne: Hey guys, whazzup? *sits next to Frappe* Hey there, Frappe.

FrappeG: Get away from me you creep! *kicks Keanne*

Keanne: *rubs his aching butt* It looks like I have the shortest information available, since I'm the newest additional muse.

FrappeG: You should have stayed where you wherever you came from and never showed up!

Java: *clears throat* Moving on to more important matters, we would like to hear what Aja has got to impart on this meeting.

Aja: Well everybody, I have a few questions to ask of you. Previously, in another website, I posted a thread in my journal about interviewing you guys. I never got around asking you because of my hectic schedule and I also had trouble getting through your huge castle door.

FrappeG: Get on with it!

Caramel: *using telekinesis to hit Frappe's face with blueberry pie* Please go on, Miss Aja.

Aja: *nods* Okay. *flips jotdown notebook* Question#1: Do you, the three witch sisters: Java, Caramel and Frappe have parents?

FrappeG: *eating blueberry pie* Of course we have, duh! And by the way, you sound like a pastor trying to marry a couple, what's with the 'do you'?

Yume: *hits Frappe with a frying pan*

FrappeG: OW!

Caramel: Thank you, Yume. Well, our father is an inventor and our mom is a sorceress. They're on the Bahamas for a vacation.

Aja: AWESOME! What were they like?

Java: Mother was a very confident sorceress. She said she used to have many suitors but only our father passed her standards.

FrappeG: Papa has a very bushy beard! Then he wears the same goggles like I'm wearing now *shows off her goggles*

Caramel: My mother loved father because of his uniqueness and creative ideas. Dad had loved mom at first sight. It's so romantic *dreamy state*

Yume: Oh, there she goes again..

Keanne: Yo, Aja, got any questions for me?

Aja: Sure. Question#2 What does Keanne like about FrappeG?

*Everyone's focus went to Keanne. FrappeG winced in her seat*

Yume: This is getting good.

Keanne: Well *blushes and grins* She's an unusual girl! She's talented, optimistic, determined, pretty and she knows what she wants.

FrappeG: Hmm, of course you'll find me pretty, there was never a doubt to that!

Yume: What arrogance...

Aja: Is there anything else you would like to add, Keanne?

Keanne: Yes. It's also clear that she takes pride in everything she does!

Java: Even if what she's doing is a failure.

FrappeG: HEY! I HAVE TONS OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS!

Yume: Yeah, like that piled up hospital debt the many times you were admitted for seizure.

Aja: Wait, Frappe had a seizure?

Yume: It happens everytime she sees Yaoi on the internet. A constant mistake she makes.

Aja: Uh...okay... *sweatdrops*

Caramel: Yes! And like that time you reduced your lab to rubbles.

Java: And that time you concocted a youth potion, drank it and got transformed into your baby self until I was able to make the anti-potion for it.

FrappeG: LAY OFF!

Keanne: She has a very strong personality and very confident. She conveys her ideas and feelings without any second thought.

Java: I'm beginning to suspect that Frappe accidentally slipped a dose of love potion on Keanne's tea from before.

Yume: That's definitely the explanation!

Caramel: But... He could be honest. We all know Keanne is very frank about things. Maybe he really is the only guy capable of loving Frappe!

FrappeG: Caramel, don't say such weird things!

Java: Not that love theory of yours again...

Keanne: Umm, guys..I mean, girls...

Yume: I still believe he's under a spell or whatever.

Keanne: GIRLS! I'm serious! I-I...I LOVE FRAPPE!!!

*Silence*

Caramel: *wiping tears of joy* It's a miracle, I say... A miracle.

Java: You can say that again.

Yume: ... *shocked*

FrappeG: What's going on? *fell asleep while Keanne confessed*

*Keanne sits down, blushing furiously*

Aja: Ah... I think things like that should be discussed privately with Frappe, Keanne.

Java: Why don't we stop here for a bit and take break? *stands up*

Yume: I have choco chips on the fridge! *runs to kitchen*

Caramel: I'll make some tea! *follows yume*

Aja: I-I'll... go pee! *Got lost later looking for the bathroom*

FrappeG: SOmething's going on. I can sense it.

Keanne: ...Ye-yeah.

FINDINGS:

The three sisters really do have parents. A brilliant scientist for a bushy-bearded father and a vivacious sorceress for a mother. No doubt, all the sisters inherited some talent in magic from their mother. Only Frappe seems to have been influenced by her father's interest in inventions.

Teasing Frappe as a like and a hobby by my other muses, has been confirmed.

Keanne's feelings for Frappe, also confirmed. A romantic relationship possibility so far, according to Yume's analysis, 0.00001 percent. In other words, close to impossibility, but then again, it's too early to conclude such a thing.

The cookies and tea prepared were perfect. The huge door I destroyed earlier was fixed immediately with the help of Java's magic.

I'm looking forward for another forum with my muses. Till next!

The Castle's Interiors
chapter 1

Frappe's laboratory

Frappe is usually found in her laboratory inventing stuff. The room resembles an awfully dark and dismal laboratory with stone walls, a single window with iron bars and sewers at the corner. It would seem unusual for a person to grow accustomed to such an unsanitary place. But then again, our FrappeG is no ordinary individual

FrappeG: I like this place! I can even sleep by that table over there

She promptly pointed to the messed up table stained with liquid chemicals of various colors and broken beakers and other laboratory glassware.

Aja:
Yume: This place is filled with rats, Frappe being the largest among them.
FrappeG: Get outta here!

The rats travel along the sewer lines that ends up to the swamp behind my muses' castle. Yume informed me that the rats and frogs became mutated consequently after being constantly exposed to the toxic chemicals Frappe created.

FrappeG: I was kidnapped and held captive by the mutated king toad one time. Yume saved me of course.
Yume: They wanted to vent out their revenge on Frappe.

I was warned not to approach the swamp.

Not that I needed anyone telling me that. The swamp is really creepy.

FrappeG: I would have showed you my room but I can't find any picture that is closely enough the same to it.
Yume: You'd rather not see it, really. It's in an even worse mess than this laboratory.
FrappeG: Quit side-commenting!

I left the room, wise enough to not hang around a ballistic FrappeG arguing with Yume. Quickly, I explored the castle until I arrived to Caramel's greenhouse.

Chapter 2

Caramel's Greenhouse

My eyes adjusted to the great amount of light that shone over Caramel's greenhouse. It was amazing how this radiance contrasted the dark interior's of the castle. It looks like Caramel did a very good job in keeping her territory tidy.

Caramel: Pleasant morning, Aja. How was the tour?

She paused as she realized that I was without a companion.

Caramel: Where's Frappe? I thought she'd be touring you?
Aja: It's okay, i don't think she's in a very good mood right now with Yume pissing her off.
Caramel: *sigh*

Caramel was sitting on a cozy chair, setting down her cup of tea on the saucer.

Caramel: I knew it, I should have escorted you around myself.
Aja: That's okay. You only granted Frappe because she insisted to do so in the first place.

I stepped closer to Caramel, dodging a bright green palm leaf on the way. Caramel motioned me to sit on the other chair and I happily obliged.

Aja: This place is beautiful.
Caramel: Thank you *smiles* I grew the plants myself. I also grow my own tea plants so that I don't need to shop faraway for them.
Aja: *nods*
Caramel: Want some tea?
Aja: Sure.
Caramel: *pouring tea into my cup* You know, it's been harder for me to manage this garden now that it has gotten so big. A gardener would be handy to have around.
Aja: *drinks tea, then frowned, as soon as Caramel turned her head,at the weird taste*
Caramel: Java plans to hire a few servants to have this place kept.
Aja: That's good news.

Caramel waited until I finished my tea. I was not so happy with her supervising every sip, but nonetheless I forced myself to drink the whole thing for I might upset her if I don't. After that, Caramel took me to Java's study.

Chapter 3

Java's Study

Java's room was very dark so I took caution in every step hence I might break a vase or a furniture. I can hardly see but Caramel seems to have no problem finding Java. Must be a twin sister bond or something...

We found Java laying on her chaise longue comfortably with one arm supporting her head as she read into a thick leather-bound book.Without even looking up at us, Java greeted us.

Java: Caramel...Aja...What brings you here?
Caramel: We're here to discuss about the hiring.
Java: Hmmm... I see.

Java closed her book and turned her eyes directly to me. I couldn't resist flinching. I knew Java was a good person, but I'm still not used to her 'dark sorceress' aura.

Java: Aja, would you mind accompanying Caramel and please look for Yume? Tell her to prepare lunch. We'll discuss the rest of the hiring details with everyone at the great hall.

Aja: O-Okay. No problem.
Caramel: *nods*
Java: I'll just finish this book then I'll be going down for lunch. See you there.

Java dismissed us with a slight wave of her hand.

Caramel: Yume must be in her room by now. Let's go.

Chapter 4

Yume's Torture Room

I posted this instead of the others i found in the internet, too gore-ish to post, scare the hell out of me...

One look at Yume's room made me cringe. I never expected anyone could tolerate this dreadful portion of the castle. I felt terrible for complaining about how dark Java's room was, it was certainly nothing compared to this. Chains hanging on the walls and blades and sharps placed neatly on a table. The only source of light was the blazing torch placed on the wall.

Yume: What's up?

Yume questioned, her face as emotionless as always. She was swinging around a ball of chain with her hand, using it as a tool of exercise. Really, you can't be careless around an android with monstrous strength.

Caramel: It's lunchtime.
Yume: Is it noon already? *shrugs* I did not notice.

Well, of course, since there was no sign of sunlight around here. Yume placed the heavy chain ball down on the stone floor and it cracked. Lazily, Yume sat on a rusty metal chair and I recognized that it was one of those torture chairs they used a long time ago.

Caramel: Java wants to discuss thing over lunch. It's important.

Caramel emphasized on the word important. Yume stood obediently nodding.

Yume: Okay, but I need your help, Caramel. You are in charge of the pantry and the garden crops, after all.
Caramel: Of course.

They turned to me. I knew what they would say.

Aja: I'll look for Keanne, then. But I need directions.

Chapter 5

Keanne's Music Room

I managed to make it up the tower to the music room. I panted after climbing the last step. Darn, why did they make castle's so big and stairs so narrow and long?!

I felt relieved when I heard Keanne's voice singing along with the sound of the guitar. It means I have found the right place. It's a big accomplishment considering how easily one could get lost here.I pushed the door and it gave me a chance to hear Keanne's voice clearly and interpret his lyrics. It was a song dedicated to Frappe. How romantic.

Keanne: Oh, hey...Are you okay?

Aja: No...*huff* But I'll tell you later...*gasp*I'll just sit down on this chair for a bit...*collapses on the chair*

Keanne: Well...If it helps, that lady on the painting is watching you.

I looked at the painting and it scared me seeing that it's/her eyes moved.

Aja: That didn't help me relax at all!!
Keanne: I never said that it would relax you, but I bet that perked you up didn't it?
Aja: As if I'm not perked enough already... you really are a teaser.
Keanne: *laughs*


When I recovered from gasping, Keanne and I discussed about many things including stuff about his family, his reason moving in the castle, the creepiness of the castle (especially the paintings) and his feelings for Frappe. I scribbled on my jotdown, glad to have gotten more information about my newest muse.

Keanne has a mother and a younger back at home. He moved in just recently into the castle, it being a right since he was my muse. Java explained that living closer to each other would make it easier for me, the author, to call upon them into a group. Keanne’s mom didn’t mind, glad that Keanne finally found a girl he got interested in.

Keanne’s mom profile
Name: Devon Griffin
Age: 37
Profession: Painter

Keanne’s younger brother profile
Name: Jerome Griffin
Age: 12

I asked him about where his father was, but Keanne told me had no idea. His mom wouldn’t tell him about his dad either. I find this a very interesting tidbit and I want to know more about, but I’ll have to save it for later. I was so caught up, I almost forgot about my errand. We hurried to the great hall, afraid Java might punish us for being late.

Muse Moments 1

I was sitting by the foyer by myself, bored enough to even bother reading some random vampire novel. Every chapter made me hate and hope for the death of the mary-suish character they used as the protagonist. Really, why am I even reading this rubbish? It’s not like the author would actually let his/her character be killed. The very certainty of it exasperated me.

Frappe: Whatcha doin’??
Aja: *sigh* Reading…

Frappe: What’s that book?

My curious muse, Frappe, flipped my book close to see the title page.

Frappe: Vampire Diaries…What the heck? Another vampire novel? Haven’t you had enough of that crap?

My temper flared. I bolted up from my seat and threw the book out the window, crashing the glass and sending tiny colorless shards down the carpeted floor.

Aja: There, that should do it! Happy now, Frappe?
Frappe: Of course! *grins*

Yume: The least you could do was spare the window… But no worries, we just got our new maid, Margarette.

Margarette, in her complete maid uniform, slipped through the door. Her pace was quick and efficient. Her hair was white and short extending down to her nape and a little longer down the front which framed her face beautifully. She gave us a smile and took out a broom and a dust pan from under her frilly skirt. (Yes, under her skirt)

Aja: I’m just frustrated, you know!
Keanne: I heard some noise from down here. What’s up?

It was my male musical muse, Keanne in his usual casual friendliness. My temper worsened.

Aja: YOU! YOU REMIND ME SO MUCH OF THAT ARROGANT GIT!
Keanne: H-Hey! Hold up!
Frappe: Who are you talking about? *leaning arms over the armchair where I sat by awhie ago*

Aja: My pesky boyfriend! Who else?
Yume: Now, we’re getting somewhere.

Keanne: You mean A.C? What did he do to you this time?

I complained about A.C out having fun over the summer, enjoying airplane rides and the company of his friends. I told my muses that he called me and flaunted his enjoyable summer trip while I get stuck at home. Which I find excruciatingly unfair.

Keanne: Well, that’s too bad, but honestly those things can’t be helped. Besides you have school to think of, and that comes as a first priority.

Aja: *sigh* I know… but I still want to strangle him. Keanne…
Keanne: What?
Aja: You’re so cool. *hugs Keanne*
Keanne: *smiles and hugs back*

Frappe: Get a room!
Keanne: Ah, don’t worry, Frappe. It’s still you I’m in love with.
Aja: *grins*
Frappe: SHUT UP!

Thankfully, my muses have a way of calming me down. No wonder I love them so much. I watched Frappe go berserk and Keanne savoring each moment of her attention. Yume shrugged and left us, probably on her way back to her room for some work out. Margarette had finished cleaning up and was giggling quietly in a corner.

Note:
My boyfriend is referred by his name initials by my muses just like they do with calling me AJA. This is for privacy reasons. Keanne is a muse created from the essence of A.C who is also skilled at playing the guitar, singing and using different gadgets. He also has the same looks and hyperactive attitude that can almost match Frappe’s eccentricity.Margarette is the new hired maid fated to serve inside the castle for all eternity. Servants in the household were beckoned at the mere mention of their names and had the skill to appear within seconds (Yes, even when they are afar, they can still hear).The only people who can summon them are my muses and me.
P.S: I picked up the vampire book again and finished reading the first volume. LOL

The Garden

I stood over the bridge, watching the stream flowing below. I am so bored right now that i had to resort to visual imaging in order to cope. For a long while, i stood on that bridge alone as if I was expecting someone would come by me and ask me why I look so forlorn like it was their business to know.

At last, one came... It was Hibari. He merely passed by quietly. He didn't even greet me or look at me. I sighed loudly, more depressed than ever.

I saw L by the grass, staring at the water and testing its temperature by using his big toe. He was a strange but adorable bishie. I smiled a little. He moved towards the bushes next and i guess it was so that he could find some berries for his cake later. That odd man never planned to swim or dip his feet even on the stream. I wonder if he ever took baths.

Killua was sleeping on a tree branch or at least he pretended. I don't think he could, since sensei Zetsubou was using that branch as well to tie his rope on. I would much prefer that Zetsubou would make better use of his time... like actually die so he could stop doing such silly things. Of course, I was only kidding. I like sensei.

Kidd is doing something strange by the water. He appeared seriously in thought. I peered around to find that he was actually trying to arrange the water lilies on the water.

All of them makes me smile even though i know they were just a figment of my imagination. I felt someone nudge my shoulder and saw Hibari right beside me. I jumped. I never thought he would willingly make contact like that physically.

My gaze dropped to the thing he brought. It was a book entitled 'Mermaid'

"Frappe told me to give this to you. You will read it as we go eat our picnic over there."

I took the book. Hibari left.

I smiled again.

I don't care if you guys aren't real.
Being weird is far better than being unhappy. Just where did that come from. I'm so emotional.

I skipped towards the bank and lay complacently down on the green grass.
