Freya just sighed. "Great.... Now you guys did it..." She shook her head, annoyed with the two idiot men who had caused this. "Rory.... You might want to step back.." She wasn't kidding either. Remy had the right idea, get away from the sisters, now Rory would need to.
"Tari. If you don't calm down I'll make you calm down." Rory had never heard Freya use that tone as she stepped forward. A tone that left no doubt that she really would force Tari to calm down. If that meant having to physically hold her down until her tantrum was over, Freya would.
She purposely avoided Tari's questions. She couldn't lie if she didn't answer. And she probably would lie if she were forced to. Tari would freak out four times worse if she found out exactly what Rory and Freya had been doing there.
Freya had purposely put enough space between herself and Rory so she didn't accidently hurt him. Flames flickering into existance, dancing about Freya's form, as if daring the water to get any closer. If a fight did break out between the sisters, no one knew who'd win..

Rory simply watched as the situation went from bad, to worse, to horrible. The water in the room began to gather around Tari and flames sprang up around Freya. It was like watching two opposing elements in nature about to clash. Though he probably should have been, Rory wasn't afraid, it wasn't like either of them could do any real damage to him. Though he did feel incredibly awkward.
Slowly he began to awkwardly side step away from the two women, "Fine by me..." He muttered in response to Freya. Though really, the most awkward question was when Tari asked if they had done it. What she should have asked was how many times they had done it, of course, Rory knew she'd kill him if he said that... In fact, Freya probably would too.
As Remy began to walk away, Rory started to follow him to the mini-bar, "This is a nice hotel room though... I wonder if they'll lower the rent after the burn marks and water damage." He wondered out loud as he stepped behind the mini-bar to see what there was to drink. He pulled out a bottle of scotch and two glasses, setting them on the bar, he needed a stiff drink right not; too bad they didn't have whiskey. He filled both glasses and slid one to Remy, seeing as how both their dates were fighting for now.

Tari turned to pleading to caution when Freya started flickering. That woke her up. If they went any farther, they would probably destroy the city. Soon, the water went back to the fountain. Tari slowly took deep breaths through her nose. She didn't want to destroy anything today, especially in front of guests...in front of Remy. Tari finally calmed herself down, but she gave Freya a disapproving look.
"I promise we're going to talk later. Let's enjoy ourselves for now." As soon as her mood went down, Tari was smiling again. She was as moody as the weather or the ocean. Fierce one minute, then calm the next. Looking down at her hands, she realized that she was still holding Remy's rose he gave her. Tari then turned to Remy with a dazzling smile.
"Sorry about that. And thank you again for the rose." Tari sat by Remy and poured herself a drink. "What would you like?"

He looked towards Rory as the man spoke, sidestepping Freya as, to Remy's surprise, fire started showing around her. It didn't take him long to understand how the two s could be sisters. Freya, of course, had the power of fire while Tari, from what he noticed through the fountain, controlled water. He nodded when Rory mentioned the nice apartment, but couldn't help the small laugh and half smile when he asked about water damage.
"I'm not too sure, myself, but if I know my re, we'll have to deal with this place being a sauna before long." he gave a nod in thanks as the shot was slid to him, catching it with ease and raising it, "Cheers."
After taking the shot, he extended his hand to Rory. "I don't believe we've officially met. Remy Lebeau, champion card player."
He looked towards Tari who was now smiling as if nothing happened. When she asked what he would like, he gave her a smile and a wink.
"Thank you, but I believe the bartender has already set me up."

Freya couldn't hide her satisfied smirk when Tari calmed down. All the flames around her vanished as she shrugged, having never gotten mad to begin with and therefor not needing to calm down herself. She raised an eyebrow at her sister though. "Yeah. Like I'm going to talk to you about my personal relationship..." Her voice was little more then a whisper, hoping that no one would hear as she rolled her eyes. Why did Tari care anyways?
It did make her laugh a little though as Tari bounced back just as quickly as Freya did. It might even make Rory laugh, because he was so used to Freya's mood swings, and not Tari was having them as well! Oh yes, these two were definitely sisters.
With another shrug, she followed everyone's lead to the bar, unlike them though, she didn't get herself anything to drink. Freya didn't drink that often, if only because for some reason she just couldn't handle them. Which was rather odd.... Because normally you would think someone with her abilities wouldn't even be affected by liquor . Instead she just sat down, folded her arms on the counter, and rested her head on them, watching everyone.

Rory grabbed the hand of the man, shaking it firmly before speaking, "Rory Ashe, champion fighter." He said with a slight wink and a slightly devious grin. No, he wasn't an actual champion, but he had met very, very few people who could stand more than a few seconds against him in a brawl.
Behind him, he noticed that the fight was apparently over, with Tari about to kill everyone one minute then when she turned around she was smiling as happily as if she had won the lottery. Rory paused slightly in the pouring of his drink, "Great... They're both bi-polar." He said somewhat quietly, stifling a laugh.
Rory started to raise the glass of scotch to his lips when he noticed Freya come up and lean on the bar. He paused just as the glass touched his lips, noticing that she wasn't drinking. It was then he remembered he was trying to quiet, he used to be somewhat of an alcoholic. He looked at the drinking, slowly swirling the liquid inside by shaking the glass. Then casually set it down.
Though as he began to put the glass down, in his reflection in the scotch he saw the imprint of a kiss on his cheek! He quickly turned away and rubbed it off, before turned back to Freya, "Why didn't ye tell me you had marked me?" He asked quietly, so only she would hear, a slight grin spreading on his face.

"A pleasure, sir."
Remy just gave his usual half smile when Rory smiled and winked. Either this guy was just talk, or few people actually were able to beat him. Yet he seemed Normal, he knew this man had to be a mutant, how else would a like Freya be able to use her powers without him running? He was close to Rory, so he heard the comment and stifled a laugh. His curiosity grew when he saw Rory set the drink down, but shrugged and handed it to Tari, raising his glass.
"A toast, to my lovely host."
He took the drink, downing the hard beverage with a wince as it hit him. It wasn't the strongest drink he had tasted, but it definitely wasn't the weakest. He looked over to Rory when he mentioned Freya marking him, and once again gave his half smile. It was rare for Remy to fully smile at all, but when he looked to Tari, it was slowly appearing.

Tari was still bugged about Rory and Freya...what if...? Tari shook her head, getting the thought out of her mind. Yet...was it just about being disapproving? Her heart ached...and Tari felt a cold stab of jealousy. She never had a boyfriend, like Freya and she downed a drink, wincing as it went down. When Remy turned to her with a smile, Tari couldn't help but smile herself. She took the glass Remy offered. "Thanks," she whispered shyly. A slight blush rushed over her cheeks as she drank.

((You guys have totally messed up the order XD))
"I heard that..." Freya smirked at Rory, rolling her eyes. She wasn't bi-polar! Just had some rather dramatic mood swings.... Which some people would call being bi-polar. It was hard to tell who was worse though, Freya or Tari. Rory didn't know Tari that well so he hadn't witnessed her mood swings first hand, and obviously Freya would thing Tari's were worse when Tari thought Freya's were worse. Either way, guys who well for Elensar girls were sure never to get bored...
When she heard Rory moving about, she slowly look at him... and laughed. Now he noticed? "I tried to, if you remember. You just looked at me like I was crazy." He'd already wiped it off, such a shame! And it'd been so funny. Maybe she'd just have to leave another one later and hope he didn't notice. She smirked a little, which might have given her scheme away since she and Rory always seemed to be on the same frequency. He'd probably figure out her plan...
She turned her attention back to her sister and the date she'd brought, watching them with little interesting.... until she saw Tari blush. Right then, Freya's attention was at full alert. It was easy to imagine little invisible horns pricking up at that moment. Suddenly she was smirking. How interesting. Tari was starting to get a crush!

"Oh brother..." Rory muttered, shaking his head as Remy made a toast. That guy was laying it on thick, that was for sure. He couldn't explain why, but it annoyed Rory a little. Perhaps another time would be better to quit drinking. As he watched the two of them it seemed at least a little genuine, but there was still something about Remy that was off, to Rory. He hadn't given him a reason to dislike him though... Yet. Then again, the only person who'd ever given Rory a reason to like them was Freya.
Rory laughed a bit at Freya, though she didn't seem to be bothered by being called bi-polar. It wasn't liked Rory did mind too much though. Generally her mood swings made things very interesting, never a dull moment, otherwise Rory would probably get bored. When she said she had told him, he looked confused for a moment before he realized when she had tried to, "Oh really? How was I supposed to know tha pointing at yer cheek was code for 'I left a large print of me lips on you.'" He said quietly, though laughed a bit.
It was then that he noticed Freya's look, he had seen one like that before. He would have told Freya to be nice to Tari and Remy, but then he remembered, Tari didn't really like him and he didn't really like her. So he kept his mouth shut. From underneath the table he wrapped an arm around Freya and gave her a slight squeexe, out of sight from Tari though. Really, with the dress Freya was wearing she was making it hard for Rory to not hold her in some way, "So, Casanova... Where are ye from?" He asked, directing the question at Remy.

"You shouldn't blush so much, cher, your cheeks look better without the red."
He gave Tari another wink and a half smile. Remy couldn't help his words as he sweet talked Tari into blushing. He felt the eyes on him and smiled at that as well. He was always one who didn't mind getting attention, especially from a different couple. Sometimes that would lead to fights among the couples, or among himself and the boyfriend or husband. His favorites were when the jealous ex was around, now that was entertaining.
He couldn't keep his eyes off of Tari, and that was saying alot with Remy. He was always a ladies man, moving from one to another, but he felt different with Tari. She seemed to have caught his interest more then most s. Partly because she was a mutant, and partly because she was able to control water. He thought back to the first night they met and almost hit himself in the head. Why didn't he see that before? Ice in the middle of summer, pouring rain as soon as she looked up? His thoughts were distracted when Rory asked him where he was from. He turned and notice that Rory seemed to have a sudden irritation about him, and Freya was looking more intently at both of them. What was going on with those to.
"I'm from the great town of New Orleans, sir, and yourself?"

Tari looked over at Freya and Rory and noticed Freya looking at her mischievously. Oh crap, she thought. But she tried to not let it bother her. Instead, she got a smug look on her face. Tari could understand now why Freya was bothered when she got into her sister's affairs. They both did that to each other. Well, if Freya was going to do what she did with Rory...why not do it with Remy?
The blush in her cheeks went away and Tari put on her most seductive look, twirling her black hair between her fingers. She scooted closer to Remy, close enough for him to smell her perfume. "So...what brought you to New York, Remy?" Tari lowered her eyes, but after a moment, she made eye contact with Remy, holding his gaze.

Freya had just shrugged at Rory's question, not bothering to answer. It was his problem he hadn't noticed. And besides, it really had been funny.... But that might have been what helped Tari figure out just how far along their relationship was, or... that they were at least kissing quite a lot. After a few moments though, she glanced at Rory out of the corner of her eye, smirking a little. "Maybe I'll just leave another and not warning you this time. See how long it takes you to notice then."
Her attention returned to the somewhat awkward flirting between Remy and Tari, that mischievous smirk still in sight. To think Tari would be doing this right in front of Freya! After getting all annoyed at Freya and Rory for being a somewhat 'normal' couple, it looked like Tari was trying to start her own romance.... Right in front of the two. But what Tari didn't know? Rory was flirting in a much more subtle way. Something Tari and Remy seemed to lack.
Suddenly she laughed, covering her mouth with her fingers. She would it just hilarious that Tari was doing this right in front of Freya and almost literally branding 'hypocrite' across her forehead! She looked away from the pair to gaze at Rory. "I don't think either of them know how to be that subtle." She didn't bother lowering her voice, they were supposed to hear what she was saying after all!

"New Orleans? Aye, I figured ye to be Cajun, I should've guessed Louisiana." Rory said with a nod, "Me homeland is Ireland." He said, leaving out a town's name mostly because he didn't know. He knew he had come from Ireland because of the faint memories, more like dreams really, of being a boy there. Not to mention he had the thick accent, spoke fluent Gaelic, and had the normal Irish temper to match.
When Freya spoke to him again he glanced at her slightly, "Oh really?" He asked with a smirk, "Well if ye leave another one, why don't you move it over to the left a bit... You know, near me lips?" This was said a bit more quietly, mostly because he didn't want Tari to hear and get mad again. With that said, with the arm that was wrapped around Freya he gently, almost teasingly trailed his fingers down her back. Still out of sight from Tari and Remy though.
He glanced at Tari when she asked Remy why he was in New York, and immediately noticed the seductive look she was giving him. What the... He raised a brow slightly in confusion. Hadn't she been about to kill Rory and Freya a few minutes ago for doing something similiar to that? He had to admit though, from seeing them flirt so out in the open, Freya was way better at it; especially when he was alone with her.
When Freya semi-quietly commented on Tari's flirting Rory had to laugh a bit, "Aye, and you know how to be?" He asked with another laugh, true, they were both a lot more subtle, but he wanted to tease her. "Every time ya get to the mansion ya immediately want to jump on..." He glanced at Tari and Remy, realizing he was speaking at a normal tone, "Me... Motorcycle... And... Go fer a ride or something..." He said akwardly, trying to hide what he was abviously about to say, even though he didn't own a motorcycle.

"Of course, I figured your accent sounded unique. I should've guessed the fine country of Ireland."
He hadn't been to Ireland personally, but had heard stories, seen pictures and listened to music. From what he had put together, Ireland was a country to see someday. His attention was brought to Tari when she asked him what he was doing in New York. It had been the third time in a week that he had been asked that question, and each time he gave the same answer. He leaned back against the bar, pouring him another shot.
"I came here lookin for my good friend Logan. Had some memories stored away that might be useful to him. However," he then leaned forward, "I seemed to have gotten myself interested in...more pleasant company."
That half smile came out again, and he winked at her seductive look. He didn't know much about siblings, but he knew alot about competition. Freya and Tari were obviously competing with each other, over what he wasn't sure. But he couldn't help but obliged, simply because he always enjoyed a good competition whether he was involved or not. He caught Rory's comment about his...motorcycle, and looked back to the man.
"And I'm sure your "motorcycle" has enough engine power for the young lady to ride." he said, raising his glass and taking a drink, then looking to Tari and winking again.
