"Okay then." She took his hand and checked out.

We left with a bag each, and I glanced around once we were outside to see if they had caught up yet. My scan paused on the man in the coat, watching us from behind a tree.

"Hm?" She noticed his staring. "What is it?"

2016-05-31 02:21:39

🌀

"...one of them came back. The less talkative one, thankfully." He waved. ...he really isn't very good at this whole stealth thing.

2016-05-31 02:23:53

●

"Wha- Oh." She saw what he was talking about now.

2016-05-31 02:24:49

🌀

"...should we go say hello?...."

2016-05-31 02:25:24

●

"Do you want to?"

2016-05-31 02:26:13

🌀

"...he seemed okay. I don't see why not. Maybe we could find out how the other two found us....."

2016-05-31 02:27:13

●

"Alright." She squeezed Seculus's hand before they walked over to the tree.

2016-05-31 02:28:00

🌀

I squeezed it back. He stared at us up until we were directly beside him. "Shh. I'm hiding."

●

"From?" Ivory raised an eyebrow.

"Athena told me to hide while she counted to five hundred, then she'd come find me. It's been six hundred. I think."

2016-05-31 02:31:13

●

"You do know this is New York City and she probably knows exactly where you are."

2016-05-31 02:32:37

🌀

"Really? I need to find a better hiding spot then." "...I don't think that'll make a difference. Are you playing hide and seek....?" "No, she just told me to go hide." Judging by their conversation earlier.... "....I get the feeling she won't be coming to find you."

2016-05-31 02:33:49

●

"She probably just wanted some alone time with her friend."

2016-05-31 02:35:24

🌀

He stared at Ivory like she had just told him she was on fire. "Why would she get rid of me for that?" ...oh dear....

2016-05-31 02:37:18

●

"I don't know, maybe to grab dinner? Or a 3am McDonald's run?"

2016-05-31 02:38:44

🌀

"I like food too though." "...I'm sure you do, but.....um....." ....Ivory, bad things generally happen when deities get upset. Maybe we should give him a bit of company so that doesn't happen...?

2016-05-31 02:41:06

●

Yeah...that probably sounds about right. "Maybe they wanted a date or something? Nothing against you, just wanted 'girl-time'"

2016-05-31 02:43:52

🌀

"A date?" He thought this over for a second, then broke into a broad grin. "Oh, that's right, they would! I'll join them again later. That was a mean way to get rid of me, though." "....do you want to come meet Lance?" Lance likes meeting deities, right?

A short walk later Ivory let herself inside the house with Seculus and Arctic, at least that was who he said he was. "Lance I'm home!" Ivory shouted. "And i brought a friend!"

"If it's a blow up doll again you're sleeping in the doghouse!" Lance opened his bedroom door and moved downstairs.

2016-05-31 02:49:32

🌀

A /what/-- "Like one of those inflatable clowns??" "....no, not like those." God, please don't have sex with an inflatable clown.

2016-05-31 02:51:41

●

"Yes, and they're always surprised to see you!"

"/Lance!/"

2016-05-31 02:59:27

🌀

"............." "So that's your name! Lance! Hi there, Lance!"

2016-05-31 03:00:00

He finally made it down the steps. "Hellu, and you are?"
