"I'm not going to flirt with you, so you can go try someone else." "I never said I was going to flirt with you. That's disgusting and narcissistic." "Then move." I pushed his face out of the way so I could get up and noticed again how much taller I am. Age did give me /some/thing, I suppose. "Have you been here the entire time?" "I think you mean to ask, 'is it completely dull in here, and did I get daft from a knock on the noggin sometime in your future'? The answer to both is yes." Ignoring that last bit, this was growing ever more confusing.

Soon enough, Ivory saw Seculus...with Seth. He was still here. Yes, /that issue/ had yet to be solved, but that can wait. For now, Seculus was the first priority. She broke into a run, and immediately tackle hugged Seculus.

I was knocked over very suddenly, and for a split second, I panicked. Then I realized who it was and hugged her back tightly. So tightly. I'd missed her. Seth just rolled his eyes. Again, I ignored him. He didn't matter. Tassek hadn't let me go anywhere other than work under the same threat he'd been using since I'd last seen Ivory. Fortunately, he didn't know about this place. And with luck, he never would. Unfortunately, he tended to be quite lucky himself. We'll see whose wins out.

A smile spread across her face. He ws here. Uninjured. Just to make sure, she looked up at him. "Are you alright? Tassek didn't hurt you did he? I'm so sorry this happened." She quickly asked, one sentence right after the other.

I smiled softly at her. The scar on my nose, which had developed nicely after repeated bashings, was now visible with the bandage removed, but other than that I appeared unharmed. .....appeared being the key word here. "He wouldn't do anything permanent for fear of Terezi and Anndrea finding out, it's alright. He won't keep his hands off my wings, but, I....I think I'm getting used to it." No I wasn't. It hurt just as much every time. And I couldn't keep them hidden all the time. But she looked so worried. "It isn't your fault, it's all his. It's okay."

2015-10-02 06:36:56

●

So he was hurting him. /God Dammit./ "I know...I just...I feel bad that you have to deal with this alone. Are your wings alright at least? He hasn't been trying to cut them off?"

2015-10-02 06:40:16

🌀

"...no, he hasn't. I mean, I don't think so. I woke up one morning with some feathers cut in half, but it didn't hurt, and I've been blocking my door every night since. They still haven't grown back, though."

2015-10-02 06:43:41

●

"Good. I mean, good at least until I can figure something out." She stood up, and offered out her hand to help him up as well.

2015-10-02 06:45:35

🌀

"...it's enough." I took her hand and pulled myself to my feet. It wasn't really needed, but I didn't care. Seth stood boredly, but probably less bored than he would be by himself. Maybe he did look a little jealous, though. Oh well. Not like I care. Much.

●

She kept a grip on his hand once he stood up. "So, I see the other problem is still here." She looked to Seth.

2015-10-02 06:50:50

🌀

"Yes, the...other problem." Said problem flipped me off. "Apparently he's been here the entire time we were gone."

2015-10-02 06:54:20

●

"Well it'd be even weirder if he disappeared when you left, but I guess you never know in this place."

2015-10-02 06:56:30

🌀

"That's true. But I thought he might go home or..../something/." "I'm right here, stop talking about me like I'm not." "You shouldn't be, so I'll do it as much as I want."

2015-10-02 06:57:28

●

"Isn't it past your bed time anyway? You should be home."

2015-10-02 06:58:42

🌀

"I would if I could, but I wouldn't be sleeping. I'm sixteen, not twelve." "That's right, you'd think the problems would've arisen at least around eighteen. You must be an early bloomer." "Go to Hell." "If only."

"Males sexually peak faster, so that might be your answer to his behavior. "

2015-10-02 07:01:24

🌀

I blushed a little. He smirked. "I suppose we'll never know, moving on. Has Tassek been causing trouble for you? I haven't been able to find out."

2015-10-02 07:04:32

●

"Well, he hasn't shown up at the shop yet, and I'm hoping he hasn't found my skype or my phone number. So at the moment? My only problem is being unable to get anywhere near you."

2015-10-02 07:13:06

🌀

"I've been logging out of my Skype, so he shouldn't be able to get either of those. If I can figure out /some/ sort of excuse for staying late after work, maybe an extension in my shift or something like that...."

2015-10-02 07:15:10

●

"Maybe. That might work. I at least hope so." She frowned. "I miss hanging out with you."

2015-10-02 07:18:18

🌀

".....I do too. Or anyone, for that matter. But you especially. We never got to finish that game, either."

2015-10-02 07:21:00

●

"We didn't, which is a shame. It's a pretty long game too."

2015-10-02 07:22:48

🌀

"Several hours of wandering around in the dark and going slowly insane? Sounds like a regular night out for me. Is it possible to get a computer in here?" "Yeah it's a long game. How much did you have on when he kicked you out?" I restrained myself from turning and hitting him, but only just barely, and my hands tightened on hers, teeth gritting.

2015-10-02 07:26:14

●

"I wish, I've tried, it never works." She then looked to Seth, expression blank. "Well /I/ was wearing the same outfit I always do when I sacrifice someome to the dark lord."

2015-10-02 07:31:14

🌀

He sneered. "Not funny." "Really? I thought it was hil/arious/." Alright, so I was mostly just being contradictory now, but it was well worth it. "I'm going to make the assumption that outfit wasn't exactly modest." "Well, in public, perhaps a velvet cloak and knee-length lace ballgown would be more standoffish than modest." "You're not seriously playing along." "Who said I was playing?" This was kind of fun.
