Okay, now that was funny. She laughed. "Perfect, you'll be wonderful at it. For now though, lets get inside my house before you attract the attention of a fangirl."

I turned redder and burned a hole in the carpet with my eyes. Not literally, of course. "....I don't know about the fangirl bit, or being wonderful at it for that matter, but yes, lets."

Terezi went upstairs and unlocked the door to her apartment. "You should probably sleep." She commented once they stepped inside her home. "You are obviously tired, what with you passing out on the couch in the lobby and all."

2015-04-30 04:11:44

🌀

"Yes...I suppose." I sat down on one of the couches she actually /owned/ and took my glasses off to clean them. "So long as I continue this, I'll receive my paycheck at the end of the week...I figured that the most immediate concern would be purchasing clothing." Somehow the white turtleneck had remained immaculate, but that didn't mean it would hold out for the unforeseeable future. In any case, having only one outfit seemed unhygienic.

She thought for a moment. "Yes, that does seem like the first thing to do." She sat down on the other couch. "Unfortunately, I do not own anything that you could possibly borrow until then."

"Naturally. I'd be concerned if you did. Thank you, though. Alternating between this and my uniform should do for now." Of course, I'd left it at the cafe for various reasons including a wish not to walk back and forth across the city while wearing it, but I would still be wearing it for several hours out of the day.

"Yes that should suffice for now." At least he wasn't leaving a trail of blood everywhere he went.

2015-04-30 05:08:33

🌀

I put my glasses back on and stretched out on the couch. "Hopefully....I'm glad you had a, well, interesting night. I'll see you in the morning, or the closest approximation." I smiled sleepily and dozed off, mumbling "No need for the blanket, just keep using that as a curtain, it goes to better use that way...."

2015-04-30 05:13:32

●

She stood up. "If you insist, see you in the morning." She retreated into her room once more.

2015-04-30 05:15:16

🌀

Ah, I was here again. I'd decided, at least for the moment, to call it Calistor. I have no idea why. 'Calm' plus 'storm' equals that with an added 'i'? Apparently these are the serious issues that undergo debate in my subconscious. I should be on a counsel somewhere. I looked around for Anndrea, noticing that I had my glasses again. So whatever I had on me in the physical world came over and nothing more. Interesting.

Anndrea, once again in her white dress, immediately took notice from where she was sitting of someone in the distance. Seculus? She immediately sprang to her feet and ran towards the figure. Sure, enough it was him. Quickly she rushed forward and pulled him into a tight hug. "Oh, it's so good to see you!" She greeted. "Tell me all about your day, What was it like?" Her words were quick, but somehow that calm softness.

2015-04-30 05:25:21

🌀

I tensed in surprise but hugged her back. I'd been getting a lot of these lately. I liked it. "I'm glad to see you too....it was, um, interesting." Dammit, it was different trying to explain it to her than Terezi. Wait, she would've heard the entire conversation through Terezi, so I didn't have to! Thank God for metaphysical loopholes. "But, I suppose you're already aware of how my job turned out." The moment of truth. Would she laugh at me? I wouldn't blame her for it.

2015-04-30 05:34:34

●

"Yes, yes I did." She responded. "I think it's something just for you. I mean, you are very attractive. I'm sure those women adore you completely." She smiled warmly.

2015-04-30 05:38:27

🌀

I turned red. Wait, did she just call me 'very attractive'? And she stated it like a fact. Aaaah, ummm... How do I even respond to this??? "Th-th-thank you?" Genius, Seculus. Absolute brilliance right there.

2015-04-30 05:50:33

●

"You are most certainly welcome." Finally, she pulled away from the hug. "I really wanted to see you work, maybe I can tomorrow? I'll try really hard to."

2015-04-30 05:55:21

🌀

Aw, don't let go. See me work? God, that would be humiliating...but that didn't mean I wouldn't kind of like her to. "...maybe. If Terezi doesn't want to, though, you probably shouldn't. That would be cruel." Even I knew better than to try and make darling do things against his will. There's a difference between possession and outright control. Sort of.

2015-04-30 06:01:40

●

"Yes, you're right." Anndrea paused for a few moments before looking at him. "I'll see what I can do, I can promise you I won't pressure her.." She was an angel for Christ sake, she couldn't be mean to her dear. That would be uncalled for.

2015-04-30 06:04:07

🌀

I nodded a little. "Alright. I hope you can come, I mean, that would be nice..." I crossed my arms awkwardly. This pose seemed inevitable whenever we had our talks.

2015-04-30 06:06:21

●

"I hope so to. As much as I love to watch Terezi be happy and loving, I really would enjoy a small change for once." She hoped it wasn't asking for too much, even if she didn't know entirely what to do yet.

2015-04-30 06:07:58

🌀

"....yes, well, that was the mindset I had originally. Careful." Every time she brought this up I felt obliged to warn her. If I was good for anything at all now, it was to serve as an example to others, and I was going to make the most of it.

2015-04-30 06:10:41

●

" Yes, and look where you are now." She gestured to the area around them. "You're here. With me."

2015-04-30 06:12:58

🌀

...fair point. But was it worth it? That was the hardest question of all. "And also on Earth. Trapped. Eventually I'll die, and who knows, you might have a new charge if Spyders gets his way, and I'll never see you again." My voice broke and I cleared my throat, putting a hand over my mouth and glancing at the ground. Dammit.

2015-04-30 06:17:46

●

She reached up and tilted his chin to make gently make him look at her. "I don't think that will be a problem anytime soon. We've been here for two hundred years. If there is anything about Spyders that I know is that he can't kill her even if he wanted to. I will always be here, trust me." Sincerity filled her words. She really believed that she would see him for the rest of his life.

2015-04-30 06:25:23

🌀

"..............." That didn't mean I wouldn't die, though. Would I see her in heaven? Unlikely, considering that, by all accounts, I was a 'fallen angel'. ".....I hope so."

2015-04-30 06:33:04

●

Slowly she took his hand. "I know so."
