The dough is steadily flowing in for the necessary preparations to make our stand. Equipment and inventions gathering and with time more arms will as well.
[He calmly explained. The necessary preparations for the battle against the deities of this world. With the promising allies on his side, this was becoming more and more possible though it seemed that even they've taken precautions by taking away a few. Rip, the Master, even the Earl to name a few.]
[He slightly raised a brow to the next, a bit taken by the question. She truly was behaving strangely today. The sinner was about to question back when he heard the latter, falling silent again. Was she fishing for a sense of reassurance? Did he really need to answer that? Aion gave another sigh, finding the answer rather obvious. Of course, she meant more.]
I think you already know the answer, Lilith. I don't trust my belongings with just anyone nor would I choose to live with for two years plus.
You stayed here out of convenience, don't you remember?
[Lilith mused, smiling again. At that time, he caused a bad first impression during a curse. She had tolerated him out of courtesy and concern for Joshua's sanity.]
[She simply couldn't take his answer as it was, could she? Aion gave her the face with a slight grumble.]
You truly stick where it hurts, you know that?
[He gave a deep sigh.] Of course, I do. Out of all the places, he chose the Cathedral and one bold caretaker, heh. [He lightly laughed as he recalled the past.]
[She admitted in all sincerity. She had a cause to fight for. Bleed for. Die for. She had to tell Abel the way to open his eyes and love the world. She had to save it.
But even during those times, with Elissar and the other Saints.]
Even so, I am always thankful that I could meet you. We might not shared goals, but that didn't matter. Did it?
[It had been less lonely that way. She could see it now. She could see it slipping away in her realization. She felt the same premonition that she experienced before she agreed to bargain with him, knowing it would lead to her death.
The inevitability of partying. Perhaps not tonight or tomorrow. Or this month, but soon. She had been so long in the City.]
[He silently listened to her words. Certain curses had definitely opened his eyes a bit, something he was bound never to admit to openly, but nonetheless the truth.
Not the same belief. The complete opposite from the way he thought and yet... He lightly snickered.]
What are you talking about? We share the same goals. To get out of here for one and do what's necessary.
[His eyes now stared into hers as his voice held a sternness to it, conveying just how serious he was. His grip slightly tensing as he held her hand.] Though I still intend on leaving under my own terms.
[He needed her in his world. And it was also the only way to...]
[He hated how she always managed to conjure feelings that he's been able to control for a number of years now. Hidden away like the nuisance it was. Even the perfected poker face was no longer working against her. The sinner solemnly listened.
He would think about that when that time comes.]
You worry too much, Lilith. I'll find whoever is necessary.
[That smile gave him an uneasy feeling. Something was wrong... and the fact that he didn't know what it was was getting to him. Aion gave a soft sigh as he adjusted the glasses on his face.
His face was stern but he tried divert the subject.] Either way... what would you like for dinner?

Is there anything else that motivates you? Are those friends?
[AP: Inner garden]
Date: 2011-03-09 01:21 am (UTC)Is there really anything else? I would think grasping freedom covers it well. And no. More like acquaintances.
[He honestly answered despite feeling like he's being baby talked again.]
[AP: Inner garden]
Date: 2011-03-09 01:23 am (UTC)[She glanced at him, saddened to know the answer about those people he gathered. Acquaintances. Not friends.]
To me, you are a friend.

You can find the best friends in surprising places, please never forget that, Aion.

His expression became a bit more somber as he softly spoke with a hint of cockiness to it.]
I don't need anyone else, Lilith. Only those willing to fight for the cause.
[No one else would understand. No one else needed to understand. He simply had a goal. A goal he was willing to do anything in order to achieve it.]

[AP: Inner garden]
Date: 2011-03-10 08:21 pm (UTC)I know, but we share different means to accomplish them.
[Lilith watched him tense, felt him from the hand contact and wished she shouldn't have brought this subject. He was... so alone.]
I only wanted you to remember how we met and how our friendship grew. In this world or the next, you could find people like me, Aion.

Date: 2011-03-11 03:03 am (UTC)I'm glad to know that. It relieves me.

Re: [AP: Inner garden]

Or are we dinning out?
[AP: Inner garden]
Date: 2011-03-15 02:00 pm (UTC)[He recalled those times with a sigh, once when he was dared to and the other was when she was sick.]
To dine out, of course. I don't need you burning the kitchen being as dazed as you are.
