I hummed as I headed for the Skaikru common room.  Raven and I had ended on good terms (mostly because by the end of her chasing me we were laughing too hard to breath).  I opened the door and grinned at the scene before me.

Kane and Abby were sitting on one couch wtih Raven and Luna across from them.  The other Skaikru memebers were scattered throughout the room, Watson sitting in a chair by the occupied couches (there was extra couches and stuff in this room since it was serving as a common room).

Watson glanced at me but I seemed to pass as okay in his eyes because he returned his gaze to Luna.

"Hey O." Raven said, sparing a moment to say hi before delving back into whatever she was telling Kane and Abby.  It was like she was speaking another language that - by the looks on Abby's and Kane's faces - only she and (surprisingly) Luna understood.

"Can we get a translation to English?" I asked when Raven was finished.

Raven groaned and muttered something under her breath that made Luna giggle.  "What did she say?" Abby asked.

"You don't want to know." Luna said.

"Really?  What did she say?" I asked eagerly.

"Yu are ogeda branwodas (You are all fools)." Luna said.

I doubled over laughing, "In Trigedasleng?"

"I've been teaching her.  She's a quick learner." Luna said proudly.

"What did she say?" Abby asked, Kane looked confused as well.

"She called us all fools.  To be exact she said, 'You are all fools'." I said, still wheezing.

Abby chuckled and shook her head while Kane just ginned.

Watson looked away from Luna as the door opened and a glare and murderous look settled over his face.  Everyone had turned to look at the new comer (since everyone but Bellamy was in here that was Skaikru) and surprised (and some wary) looks settled over the room.  Abby, Kane, Luna, and Raven just looked surprised.

I turned around with a smile, "Hey Ontari.  Glad you came." I said.  The Azgeda girl was leaning on the door frame.

"Your brother is making noises again." She said, chuckling as I groaned.

"I don't want to know that Ontari." I said, face buried in my hands.

"At least you didn't hear it.  You can avoid it on the way to your room later." Ontari said.  I glanced up to see a shudder run down her back.

"What is she doing here?" Watson growled.

I whirled around, fury flashing from me.  Luna and Raven both leaned back in case something bad happened.  "She has a name!  And I invited her here because - contrary to what you believe - not everyone from Azgeda is evil.  The only evil Azgeda person that I know of is Nia!" I spat, restraining myself from actually atacking him.

"Azgeda can't be trusted.  The Mountain Men should've dropped the missle on them instead of TonDC." Watson snapped back, standing.

"No one. deserved. that. fate." I hissed through clenched teeth, remembering the destruction and death, "I don't care who you're aiming that missile at no one deserves that.  There are innocent and good people in Azgeda - not everyone is a warrior or loyal to Nia." I growled.

"People that I knew were killed for no reason!" Watson snapped.

"Get over it!  We've all lost people!  You don't think people I know and care about have died?" I spat.
