Ying watched the boy puzzled. Last night he didn't stop talking now he wasn't saying anything. She was about to ask what was going on when the kid posed the question. Her eyes widened in surprise and she tried to hold back a laugh. Eat babies? Where did the boy get an idea like that? She shook her head. "Of course not where did you get such nonsense?" The werewolf had a hunch that Lucien was behind it but it wouldn't be fair to jump to conclusions. Though she was really sure was him, no one else did stuff like that besides her and him. And he had a motive.
Looking at Kariya she sighed. "You can't believe everything someone tells you. Especially when it comes to things like that. " If it wasn't for how serious and scared the kid looked about it she probably would have played along and said something along the lines of: I only eat them on days that end in Y. This was going to be an interesting day....Ying wondered what other silly things 'someone' put in the boys head.

((WHOA. Doesn't every day end in Y? lol that was funny.))
"Ransom told me." Kariya looked at his feet. So much for not lying. But he couldn't give Lucien away... not yet, anyways. Maybe some of the things he told him were actually true! Studying his feet, the boy looked back up at Ying. "But sometimes when people tell you someone eats babies they really do eat babies." Kariya looked at his feet once again. Some people out there probably did, so this wasn't completely a lie, although he probably couldn't give an example if he tried. Not even a good lie. Unless he could think of a name really fast. It could be like the name of a super villain or something. The Baby Napper.
"So, if you don't eat babies... then I guess we can move on." Until he got more nerves built up to ask another question. Or do something along the lines of what he was instructed to do when he saw water. Maybe most of those things he was told were lies... but he wasn't set upon taking anymore chances than he had to.

(( ^_^ that was the point. ))
"I thought the dragon couldn't talk yet. Your lying to me, i can tell. We are not leaving until you tell me who really told you." She said crossing her arms and looked at the boy. The were tried her best to be stern and angry looking so the boy would fess up. It was hard though, she just couldn't pretend to be mad. Hopefully the boy would hurry up and tell the truth so they could go. And if it was Lucien she would definitely have to get him back. She immediately considered super gluing one of those ugly old fashion puffy outfits they had to wear during their crowning ceremony. Hehe that was just cruel enough to get him to smarten up she thought.

((Smarten up? More like plot something then times worse... if possible lol))
"He's plenty old enough to talk. He just... fine, then. I'll tell you." Kariya looked at his feet, then straight forward, holding his head high. "I have an overactive imagination and I tend to ask questions that have to do with my imagination therefore need no attention drawn to them whatsoever." He recited this like he was reading it straight off a page. He had used that explanation many times, many of which were of varying circumstances and the saying was altered to fit the moment correctly.
"Can we go now?" Kariya smiled and looked up, seemingly back to his normal self. Perhaps she would believe his little lie. That would be nice. Somehow, he didn't think that would happen. Which was completely and utterly beside the point.

(( Then she would just plan something even worse and then they would go back and forth forever.))
Ying listened to the boy. Sure it sounded reasonable that someone would repeat things that they imagined. However, something in his voice didn't sound right. It sounded rehearsed like someone told him to say something like that. There had to be someway to get the truth out. Being able to tell when someone is lying is only good if you can find a way to make them tell the truth after. Maybe she could scare the kid somehow in to telling the truth, or maybe there was some sort of trick....Unless she knew more about what the boy was told she couldn't really think of a good plan. So the werewolf decided to just continue with their plans and hope that something useful would be slipped out. "alright lets go." she said turning away from the boy and heading toward the dungeons.

((And yet it would be so very amusing it would be worth it... eventually they would run out of ideas though.))
"YAY!" Kariya jumped and clapped his hands, immediatley remembering that the queen didn't like loud noises or excessive amounts of joy coming from others. He clapped his hand over his mouth, calmed down, let out a breath of air, and continued walking in mild silence, trying not to be too loud, but still saying things and mumbling to himself. He couldn't be told to keep quiet for the life of him, unless he was in an extremely dangerous situation. "Do you have all of the keys and stuff? To unlock doors and treasure chests and explore and find cools things and blow things up?" Kariya added the last part unintentionally. He was a rather large fan of blowing things up.

(( lol april fools day in the kingdom. That would be kind of fun. They could start off pulling pranks on each other and then work together to pull off the ultimate prank on the kingdom. )) She smiled at his enthusiasm and then looked puzzled when he became quiet again. Interesting, so far it seemed Lucien made the boy think that she hated noise and that she ate babies.
"Yes i have the keys so we should be able to go where ever. I'm not sure what we will find in the dungeon but i don't think there will be treasure." Soon they were in the dungeons. She stopped walking when they got to the place where the boys were last night. "Where would you like to go?" Ying asked.

"Treasure isn't the same to everyone, though. Maybe we won't find real treasure, like the buried kind, but maybe we can make meamories that we would treasure." Kariya began to hum quietly, walking along, swaying to the unheard song in his head. When Ying asked the question, Kariya snapped to attention, back into reality. "To be completely honest, I just want to go into some long lost locked door and see whats inside. Are there any old tunnels that are rarely used or haven't been for a while?" Kariya looked around, hunting for cobwebs and dust. Of course, it was everywhere, so he looked for an abundance of the stuff. Walking down a little ways, he looked down one corridor and saw a web spanning across the whole opening. That looked promising. He started down that way, seeing a door at the far end. Yay! It looked like it was locked too. He paused, his left foot in midair. "Do you think this is... safe?"

Ying shrugged and followed the boy. She was babysitting the kid so it made sense to go where ever he wanted. Plus Kariya seemed to have a good eye for adventure and that was fine with her. "To be honest i never actually came down here so i don't know. I'm sure it will be fine it has been abandoned for years." The girl answered getting the keys ready.
After a few moments she managed to find the right key and opened the door. The door swung open to reveal a medium size room filled with all kinds of nasty looking tools. This must have been a torture chamber and clearly no one thought to go back and empty it out. She guess this made sense since it is a dungeon but it still was kind of a disturbing thing to come across.

"Whoa." Kariya stood there, drop jawed, for a moment. How could someone hold onto all of this stuff? It was so... This was so... "Unbelievable!" The boy walked in, touching this, messing around with that, managing to not get hurt in his running about and touching things. He could only imagine the horrid things that took place here, and he didn't really want to. This was cool, but it was a thing of the past. Thank goodness for that. But now that it was open... "Don't you dare tell Finn about this! She'll kill me if she finds out. She'd bring me here and torture me and stuff." Kariya shrunk down, wide eyed, then shot back up and went around poking things yet again.

Ying watched the boy run around excitedly touching everything. It was like her in a candy store. When Finn was brought up she shook her head. "I really don't think Finn would do anything to you." Carefully she walked further into the room getting a closer look at the objects. She had to admit it was always interesting seeing things from the past. However the thought that people actually use to use these devices on each other made her shudder.
There was quite a lot of stuff in the room it would take a while to clean it all out. Nothing like this was used anymore so there was no reason to keep it. Maybe they could put it on display as some sort of education thing? Absentmindedly she picked up one of the devices and examined it with her fingers. "I wonder how many people had been tortured here....was he one of them?" The werewolf girl asked softly not realizing that she had actually asked it out loud. It was meant to be a thought but for some reason her brain made her mouth move.

Kariya looked at Ying quietly, beginning to be overwhelmed with curiousity. "Who is 'he'?" Kariya's voice was quiet and full of that childish innocence he possessed. Of course, he knew what this stuff was used for, but... if he didn't think about it then it was better. It hurt his brain to even think about this thing happening, let alone it happening to many a person. It made him rather sad, even though it was a rather intriguing. Then again, it seemed natural. A lot of things were that way, when you thought about it. A topic could be completely morbid and yet... utterly fascinating at the same time. Things came in pairs like that. Life and death, darkness and light. Without one there would be no other.

"uh ...no one sorry i was...just..." Ying stammered trying to find her way out of this. Stupid brain making her blurt out things like that. She put the object down and looked at the boy. There was no way she could lie her way out of this since he obviously heard what she said. But he,...Xander would not be very happy to have his past drudged up again. "It was nothing i guess i was just thinking out loud about Lucien. He so grumpy i wonder if someone did stuff like this to him to make him that way." Maybe that would work. It was ok if the boy thought it happened to Lucien and asked him weired questions. Her husband was good at handling awkward situations like that. And it could be pay back......she just hoped Kariya would buy it.
(( hurray for passing the buck. lol))

"I doubt it. Just because someone is grumpy doesn't mean they were once tortured. Finn's grumpy all the time but I know she wasn't tortured. She was just... born that way." Kariya shrugged and looked down. At the far corner of the room there was an Iron Maiden. That was interesting. He had only heard about them, and knew what they did. If there was anything he lacked knowlege of it wasn't torture devices. He'd learned enough about those from his many question and answer sessions with Oliver and Finn. Both of them seemed to be strong believers in answer-his-question-truthfully-and-see-if-he-gets-grossed-out-so-he'll-shut-up.

Ying breathed an inward sigh of relief, he fell for it. She followed Kariya to the other torture device. "Yeah i suppose being tortured wouldn't make people grumpy. I guess i'll have to think of something else to tell people when they ask why the king is such a grouch." Never in her whole life did the girl imagine she would be looking at torture devices with a kid. It felt so wrong...but it was interesting.
"You seem to know a lot about this stuff....i mean...wow...not really something i would expect someone your age to know about." The girl said kind of shocked. It just didn't seem right that kids would know stuff like this so young.....but maybe it was just because she was so innocent and oblivious about this kind of stuff. Nothing wrong with that...if it wasn't for Lucien she would still not know a lot of stuff and still be blissfully ignorant. Thinking about this she started feeling angry at Lucien for telling her about this stuff.......Growing up stinks! Why did he make her learn stupid grown up stuff?
But then the anger went away as she remembered the reason. Being queen was the reason. Having an clueless queen wouldn't be good for the kingdom. With knowledge came the ability to make good decisions. Decisions like not having a Lucien junior running around and getting into trouble.... or decisions to ban the cruelness of the past. Perhaps it was for the best. The girl hated it but it was a necessary sacrifice in order to take better care of the people in the kingdom and her friends.

((*Pictures a Lucien Jr. running around* Bad things would happen... lol))
Kariya looked around once more and smiled to himself. This place was interesting. When Ransom got bigger he would have to bring him down here... When Ying began to speak of his knowledge, the boy simply looked up. "I know a lot of things that kids my age shouldn't know about. In a way, I'm priveledged. My guardians answer all of my questions truthfully. They think that if they manage to make me sick that I'll stop asking them. But that'll never happen. But I think that it's pretty awesome that I'm smarter than a lot of people when it comes to basic facts and little tid bits of information. I even think I know where babies come from." Kariya grinned sheepishly. He did like to toot his own horn, but this may have been going a bit overboard with it all. Opening the Iron Maiden curiously, he peered inside. Everything met the standard of being perfectly normal. But their was one discolored spike inside of it. Gingerly he reached out his finger. The spike pricked it, as one would expect. But there was something peculiar about the way it was aligned. Kariya pushed on its side, and it moved over a little and revealed a switch. With his sense of adventure overwhelming him, he pushed it, and the spikes began to shift and absorb into the sides of the large coffin-esque figure. Once everything was done noisily adjusting, there was a pathway that had been open. As far as he could tell, it was just a dark, dank corridor. But there might be something interesting at the end.
