Nym looks confused as she tilts her head to the side looking him in the eye

John laughs then pulls nym up into his lap and smiles at her "No? Is there something else you would like to do to pass the time?" John pulls a mischievous smirk and sneaks a kiss onto nyms neck
Nym chuckles as John kisses her neck "No, no, you can show me, I just didn't see you as one to collect."
John pulls away and laughs again while shaking his head "I have collected many sorts of odds and ends. It is also a large part of my job hahaha." John pulls way from nym and gets dressed. Once done he turns to nym and holds out his hand to nym "Come on, I am sure you'll like it"
Nym grabs his hand as she stands slowly
John twines his fingers with nyms and leads her downstairs to the basement “Hey nym, are you okay? You seem despondent” John frowns feeling like he had missed something and he thinks to himself “maybe you had said something wrong when you talked to her?” John turns around before he opens the basement door and looks down at nym “Nym…I want you to know that when we talked earlier I promise I will make this work.” John then turns back and opens the basement door flicking on the lights as he passed it and he leads nym down to a large and open basement. On each wall sat a set of shelves covered in a assortment of items. Under the one set of shelves stood several suits of armour and across the room were some tables that had ancient looking tools and books “Here we are! I must admit that it might be a bit of a mess….but I assure that each item is accounted for.”
John lets go of nyms hand and walks up towards a wall and gestures to some pirate memorabilia “These are my favorite….I might not have got to be a pirate when I was little. But I damn well made sure I was one later on in life. It was exhilarating being on the high seas!”
Nym chuckles as they walk to the basement and whispers to herself "Going to kill me now?" Nym looked at John "I'm fine, and I have faith you will make this work." Nym's eyes bugged out of her head as she gawked at the amount of memorabilia in the vast room "So cool, it's like a museum almost. I love museums!" Nym slowly started to walk around and inspect some things "You should take me to sea sometime." Nym looked up at John and smiled brilliantly
John smiles then leans in and gives nym a quick kiss and chuckles " I can certainly arrange that if you want to see the sea. It could out next date option if you want" John reaches out and grabs a small sword off the wall and brandishes it and turns to look at nym "So which item catches your eye? I have a story for each item, like the sword I have in my hand to that little pocket watch on the table" John puts the sword back and watches nym browse the items
Nym smiles into the kiss, walks over to some older looking books "What's their story?" Nym chuckles at her own idiotic joke
John walks up behind nym and looks at the dusted covers and laughs softly "Some of these are my old journals and alot of them are savior books. Books I smuggled across borders during wartime to save them and others are a assortment of things" John reaches up and pulls one book off of the shelf "This one is a peasants journal, I used to talk to him about all sorts of things. It was when I lived in France during the revolution. He had many great jokes and a funny way of looking at things"
"France?" Nym spoke almost breathlessly "You've done everything haven't you?" Nym ambles over to some of the armor "Is all this yours or did it once belong to someone else?" She said as she hesitantly brushes one of the breast plates with her hand and flinches clutching her hand
"No, I have been to alot of places but there are a few I have not been to" John puts the book back onto the shelf and turns to look at the armor "Yes those are mine , the only one that isn't is the one in the corner. That one belonged to a fallen comrade because of his dying words asking me to take care of it." John shook his head and grins "It was a round joke between the knights" John frowns seeing nym clutch her hand "You okay nym?"
"Yea yea. I'm okay." She holds her hand close to her chest and rubs her hand absentmindedly "Do you think I could handle the stories?"
"Of each item? I don't think you should touch a few of these items but most of them are quite harmless" John walks up to a suit of armor then removes the helmet and puts it on "I had almost forgot how horrible it was to wear armor.." Johns voice echos slightly in the helmet and he laughs "As I said , all you have to do is ask and I will tell you about it"
"Yea okay, but you didn't answer my question." Nym smiles
John frowns then takes off the large helmet and puts it back "About you handling the stories?….No I don't think you could" John walks up to nym and takes her hands in his and places them on his chest
Nym flinched slightly, but forced a weary smile "Why not?"
John ponders for a second then answers as honestly as he could "Alot of these are war items, and the things I have seen and done with them might be too much for you." John looks around the room then walks away from nym and picks up a small item from a shelf and returns back to nym holding it in a hand "This is from a little old lady that used to sell flowers in a small Spanish town.And what I really wanted to show you from down here." John places it in nyms hand and closes her hand around it "She gave me specific instructions when she handed it to me. Her exact words were to give it to my pretty girl at home" John smiles but it soon drops off into a sad expression "It's a bracelet"
Nym smiles and closes her eyes, then when she opens her eyes she opens her hand "It's really pretty John and I'm really flattered." Nym blushes
John smiles then kisses nyms forehead "It has occurred to me that I have told you alot about myself yet you have not told me alot about you love."
Nym chuckles "There's a reason. Could you help me put this on Hun?" Holds out her wrist "If you really want to know you'd have to ask questions. I'm at liberty to answer a lot, but I don't know what you want to know unless you ask me."
John laughs softly and helps put the bracelet on nym and talks as he does so "So what is it like having so many brothers and or sisters? Do you like it?" John rubs his cheek and muses then asks softly "Do you think your parents would like me?"
Nym laughed "Growing up with siblings and abilities is… interesting to say the least. We actually get along better than most siblings." Nym coughed "Oh, um… I'm not sure. I think they might, but none of us knew our real parents. We are all blood-related, but raised by our 'clan' so to speak."
John raises an eyebrow in surprise then tilts his head "Really? That is so odd….I can imagine that might be hard not knowing your parents. And holy hell it must of been hectic with siblings with powers and so many of you hahahaha"
"Not really, we just went about our day as normal. I mean Koios and I were the only one's to have developed a sign to start the ritual for our power at infancy because Althea and Aku are dutch twins. The way it works is if someone directly related to you is born the same day on a different year you have to wait until they develop the sign so Aku is a little late." Nym shudders and holds her biceps, for a moment glowing, green vines began to wrap around her arm
