Karl is still petting Ciel's long hair and he looks to Karen. "See... I told you this game would end in tears." He says nodding his head.
Thane is thrashing about in the fridge and he finally comes away with a mit full of grub... and a beer. He proceeds to the table and commences his crazed feeding frenzy, stopping once and a while to take a swig to wash down the gigantic bites he has taken.

"My thanks, Lady Karen, but I am fine where I am," Lysandor replies politely.
The last note of the song dies, and Jessie is quiet for a moment, pensive.
"I should've realized that this would've been a bad idea," she murmurs ever-so-softly. "A game like this can only end poorly, especially in this crowd . . ." She pulls her knees up to her chest, resting her chin on her crossed forearms, her eyes staring ahead, comtemplating the past events.
She shakes her head, breaking out of her thoughts. Determinedly, she walks towards the stereo, and puts on some decent dacning music. She holds out her hand to Ciel, gentle and soothing as she does so.
"Miss Ciel, would you care to join me in a dance of remembrance of lost loved ones . . .?"

Karen looks to Karl and nods. "I suppose it does. It's never really ended in tears for me up until right now."
Turning to Lyssie, "Well all right then. If you feel more comfortable that way, I won't make you move. Just want everyone to be comfy ya know."
Ciel looks at Jess tentatively and hugs Karl tightly. "I shall return to you shortly my human darling."
She holds out her pretty hand to put it into Jess's and holds on as tightly as the dance permits.
((OOC: Must apologize again for all her drama...>.>))

Thane has stuffed his face and is now brooding in the kitchen. Karl watches the others dance and mingle and he stands to proceed to the bathroom to fetch a towel and dry off some from Ciel's torrential down pour. Karl returns and walks up behind Karen and begins to massage her shoulders and neck. "Boy someone is as tense as a piece of lumber..." Karl chuckles as his strong fingers skillfully nudge away the tension in K's neck. "Hows that feel?" He asks playfully.

Karen nods and smiles, closing her eyes pleasurably as Karl massages her neck and shoulders.
"Yeah. I've been a bit tense lately. Lots of missing certain important people and wishing to be in their company. Same old, same old. " Karen leans her head back to rest on Karl as he works on the knots in her shoulders and back. "Do you think Thane meant to ask Ciel that out of malice? Or was it just his ruthless curiosity?"

Karl ponders Karen's question for a moment. "Knowing Thane... a little of both... a lot of both..." Karl says looking hollow. "Thane has some trust issues and a serious mean streak." He says working his fingers harder. "The fact that Ciel has taken it so hard... probably made his day."

Karen nods, thinking. "I figured as much. She may look tough, or even like she wouldn't care, but she's kind of like spun glass. Beautiful...very lovely to be around....but very, very fragile as well. "
Her neck feels better and she smiles. "You're really very good at that you know. "

"Thanks." Karl grins, "I've picked up a few pointers here and there..." He then takes his seat again. "Plus it helps settle the nerves."

Karen keeps a steady grin and keeps her eyes closed. "Pointers, huh? I'd believe that. "
She rolls her head a little and nods. "Yeah. Settling my nerves is not as easy task. I'm glad you've cared to try." She places a hand on his and opens her eyes.
"Thank you so much. You're a lifesaver....or a sanity saver. I can't figure out which is more important... "
(ooc: I just had to do it,lol)
