[Private text to Joshua:]
How are you feeling?

Lilith requests that no one go near her room since she's infectious. We'll order something again tonight. Choose something.

[Transition to action log:]
[Pulling the cathedral network, blocking any message sent to Lilith, Aion closed his cell phone after relaying a message to everyone. He closed and placed the book onto the desk and swiftly stood with a sigh. Grabbing the plastic bag that was left on the floor from the previous night, the sinner left his room to head down to Lilith's. He knocked and waited for her to respond.]

Please, come in.

Date: 2008-11-20 03:11 am (UTC)How are you feeling?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 03:25 am (UTC)She smiled at him despite the clear discomfort the disease brought her.]
This is a very mild disease to children
but adultsmy fever has subsided and... the itch is unpleasant. I'm still adjusting to being sick. What about you? How is everyone?[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 03:43 am (UTC)[Aion vaguely answered, not specifying who was particularly all right. The whole reasoning behind him taking care of her was to keep her in a confided space. Even the lotion in the bag was meant so she wouldn't wander off or ask others for assistance. Everything in control. The book proved helpful. Taking the bag off the desk, he handed it to her for her to use.]
Here. It'll help it.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 03:55 am (UTC)[Lilith pointed at the empty lotion on her nightstand.]
Would you mind helping with my back?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 04:13 am (UTC)What am I, your personal assistant now?
[That had a familiar ring to it. He sighed and took the lotion out of the bag. Recalling the little bit of information from the text, the sinner quizzically looked at her.]
Isn't it contagious?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 04:17 am (UTC)No, you are my personal nurse.
[She nodded and opened the first drawer, pointing an opened box]
Take a pair of latex gloves from the box. They will help you to protect any contact with the blisters.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 04:36 am (UTC)All right, turn.
[Squirting some lotion into his one hand, the sinner waited for her to turn her back towards him and expose the area.]

Date: 2008-11-20 10:22 pm (UTC)Aside of the blisters, there was nothing marring. No scars, no opening for the wings, not a single trace of old wounds.]
You are very quiet. Has been everybody feeding well?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 11:02 pm (UTC)[Aion deviously teased.]
Yea.
[As he finished up, he took the luxury to slowly run his fingers over the print.]
Interesting design... Does it mean anything?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-20 11:15 pm (UTC)[She looked at her hands.]
I like to apply Henna tattoos to embellish my hands. They are temporal. Women in India do that during their weddings because it brings good fortune. I like how it looks. Not everything has a deeper meaning.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 02:51 am (UTC)I see... The women of India are very superstitious aren't they? Either way, and? Anywhere else?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 03:19 am (UTC)[She smiled]
Are you interested in tattooing your body, Aion?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 03:33 am (UTC)My body? Ha ha ha... I might consider it if there are any true benefits to it...
[The sinner nonchalantly replied with a shrug. He deviously glanced at the tatoo again as he softly spoke.]
I thought there was some... 'secret' to it... That's all...
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 03:46 am (UTC)[Lilith affirmed, still holding her hair up. The lotion was fresh and would take a bit to dry. She knew what information he was fishing about.]
My wings aren't a result of this print.
Re: [Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 03:59 am (UTC)So it seems...
[Aion's serious eyes darted for Lilith's face.]
So who are these so called "caregivers"? I thought you didn't have any parents...
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 04:11 am (UTC)[A secret for a secret. It was fair.]
Well... now are you still wondering?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 04:29 am (UTC)[Aion cautiously began but sounding causal to hide its fact.]
We spawn from Pandemonium's single 'mother' core and follow orders like good pawns to protect the queen... That's all there is to it... Yourself?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 04:42 am (UTC)[This seconds Chrono's story. She resigns to tell him a bit of the truth.]
According to the Bible, God created man to His image and likeness. He made them master of all beasts and the world around them.
[She reaches at the pendant with the hologram of those days of yore in Mars. ]
What would you call those who men created to their image and likeness? That's what I am.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 05:35 am (UTC)[His body slightly stiffening to the next line, he sternly stared at her as he leaned forward and lightly clasped his hands together. Again the God bullshit, ridiculous... She was just another creation. Human kind's weapon or perhaps the term 'toy' was more suitable for the description. No human was like her. She was essentially a 'monster' just like him. He lowered his octave as he questioned back.]
And what do you consider yourself, Lilith...?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 01:37 pm (UTC)[She smiled earnestly while she quoted]
A man regardless of the conditions of how they come to this world can create their own future. Cain used to repeat this when Abel despaired about us. That's what I chose.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 05:27 pm (UTC)That's what I intend to do.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 05:34 pm (UTC)[She asked, more seriously, saddened about his goal being simply freedom.]
Aion. You are free. The City keeps us here and curses us occasionally and this is true, but you are more than a drone in service to this "Queen." You are a person, I believe in you as an individual man.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 05:45 pm (UTC)[Aion gravely answered. How was this any different? It wasn't as if he could freely go back and forth. He was still being played in the hands of another. The system. The fucking system. He had to point it out.]
Tell me... how is this world any different? We're merely puppets here as well... To dance when told to dance...
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 05:49 pm (UTC)[Lilith explained. She knew there were limits here, but the core of freedom wasn't about doing everything you want when you want, that's a thoughtless existence]
Freedom about what kind of people we are and the choices we take every day. Aren't you already the kind of man you wanted to be?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 06:20 pm (UTC)Your definition of 'freedom' is different from mine it seems. What you are stating is for us to 'cope' and make what's best out of the circumstances given to us. That's not freedom.
[Aion opened his eyes to stare at her.] There are still things that need to be taken care of back in my world... In order to go beyond... Attain true freedom... Pandemonium must be defeated.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 07:18 pm (UTC)[She shook her head, disagreeing.]
I understand. I wish to return to take care of my own mission. But until I return, I will have to be true to myself and try to do the best I can in this City.
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 07:32 pm (UTC)[Aion sat back up with a sigh dismissing her words.]
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 09:25 pm (UTC)[She knew well he wasn't listening.]
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 10:28 pm (UTC)[He doffed the gloves and threw them into the waste basket. Aion then took off his glasses and cleaned them with a piece of cloth from his jacket as he asked further.]
Anything else you need for your condition?
[Cathedral: Lilith's room:] Action Post:
Date: 2008-11-21 10:49 pm (UTC)Nothing. Thank you for your aid.
