[9] Just like old times...

I'm feeling exceptionally good today. I'm not certain why.

[Filtered to Cathedral:]
Lilith, the medicine worked wonders. Thank you for all your help these past few days. Please, if there's anything I can do for you in return, don't ever hesistate to let me know.

[Filtered to Chrno:]
Chrno~ It seems like ages since I've last spoken to you. I heard through the grapevines that you were sick as well. How are you feeling?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Aion face palmed knowing he shouldn't have opened his mouth to begin with. Waving his hand in a dismissing manner as he sighs, he walks into the first bar he sees.]

All right. A glass or two. Come on.

[They wouldn't listen to sense. It's the medication and the alcohol that are a potentially deadly combination.]

I think you have taken a past time to make me worried.

[She followed them closely and would be ready in case the drinks unsettle any of their systems.]

Who, me? I'm the good one. He's the one that goes off on mad quests for revolution! I just follow orders.

[He gives a psuedo-innocent smile.] Maybe a drink would do you some good, too.

[Aion seated himself by the bar and waved the bartender over, ordering three drinks. Catching the last bit of Chrno's comment, he chuckled as he agreed.]

He's got a point, Lilith. You're too up tight sometimes. Relax.

[Paying the bartender, he passed out the drinks and held his up for a toast.]

A toast. To everlasting friendship... and lots of luck to you, Chrno, ha ha...

[He teased him about his relationship again, though it carried various other meanings behind it...]

You're a sweet boy, Chrono. [She ruffled the shorter demon's hair.] I know who is the bad influence in the duo.

[She glanced at Aion when he remarked about her nature.] You are right, I have been unnecessary tense because of the influenza station.

[She sat, leaving a seat between Aion and her for Chrono to take.]

Cheers and best wishes for you and Rosette, Chrono.

Ah...right, cheers! [He clinked his glass against Aions, then turned to clink it against Lilith's, smiling.] And good luck to you, Aion. For...whatever it is you want to rally against next.

[Aion clinked back and began to drink as he heard Chrno. Rally against. What was he rallying against? He weakly smiled at his comrade.]

Thanks. Though you already know what that is, Chrno. My only goal and obligation as a survivor is to move forward. [Move forward with what...?] That's all there is to it.

[Lilith clinked the goblet and began to take short sips of the drink.]

Move forward until what?

Until we find freedom, would be my guess. [Chrono shrugged, taking a drink.]

There's no guessing about it. That's why we broke through the chains that bound us. But the time draws near... to open the... curtains... [Aion's speech staggered as he tried to explain further. Clenching his head, he furrowed until the pain subsided again. Something wasn't right. He didn't understand why that was happening so often and whenever he thought of his past or present goal. Shaking his head, he took a sip, allowing his conversation to die and changing the focus.]

Aa... Lilith, good luck to you as well in saving those in need. I noticed you've been coming home later than usual. They must be keeping you busy at the hospital.

Freedom? I see. [She finished her drink quietly in quick but meager sips.]

There's a flu season, Aion, the Hospital is swarmed with pneumonia cases from those who didn't take care of themselves. But I don't mind, helping others to heal is what a doctor does. Did I keep you waiting? I am sorry if I did.

You always like to help people, don't you, Lilith?

Like I said, it's just something I noticed. No need to apologize.

[Aion silently listened on as he finished his drink.]

Don't you like it, Chrono? That's my reason to exist.

Helping people? Yeah...I do.

[Rolling his eyes to the sappy talk, Aion decided to order another drink. It was nice helping people and all but he prioritized differently. It was hard enough trying to help himself... help... freedom.]

Don't drink too much, dear.

[That was a scold after catching his eye rolling.]

Or I would have to carry you home with Chrono.

[Chrono laughed before taking another swallow of his drink, leaning forward to grin at Aion.]

Yeah. Then she'd be treating you like a child again.

[The only face Aion could give to that was 'the look'. Just what the hell was the big idea, ganging up on him?]

Be quiet, brat. [Aion sacked Chrno on the head before taking his drink to have a sip.] Geez.

[Lilith began to laugh at the exchange.]

He would remain a child no matter what.

Ow! Hey! [he rubbed his head]

You're starting to act like Rosette...

[Giving Lilith another look, he glanced towards Chrno as he hears his comment.]

Ha ha ha... Good. Then you should be used to it. [Aion teased, taking another big sip before looking down at his watch. 11pm.]

It was you the one who suggested me to relax.

[She said in response of his look]

You both need to relax.

[He sighed, taking a gulp from his glass before setting it aside for now. It was best to pace himself, after all. He leaned over slightly when Aion looked at his watch.]

What time is it?

[He weakly smiled with a light chuckle.]

It's getting pretty late. Eleven already. We better head to the Ferris wheel if we still wanted to fit that in too. I think I also saw a sign that said there were going to be fireworks tonight. It should be nice seeing it from up there.
