[20] Sleeping beast... [Action Log and accidental voice post]

[Accidental voice post:]
Ugh... my head- !!

[/Turns off]

---------------------------

[Aion noticed the voice post on his cell phone and quickly shut it off. Yet another string pulled by the City. Having a massive headache for majority of the day, the sinner deeply sighed as he took off his glasses and covered part of his face with his hand. The City was really screwing with him ~~as if it hadn't been for the past few months now~~.

Having slept all day during the 27th, the only thing he could remember was the pure darkness that surrounded him. So quiet and... alone. Was it another one of those curses except this one made people feel like their dead? He wasn't sure but whatever it was the extra sleep he was forced to take was having a heavy toll on him. Sitting at his desk trying to find out what had been going on, Aion finally gave in for the day. He shut off the monitor to the computer and leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed, aggravated.

Waiting a few minutes, calming down, he flipped open his phone to deal with the unbearable situation. It was past the recommended four-hour wait, right?]

[ooc: First off, I want to highly apologize to my crew for not being more available online and having to backdate on EVERYTHING. Thank you so much for being patient with me and I can't tell you how much fun I'm having despite having to backdate it! =TTWTT= <3333 I wanted to make this post so you guys know what supposedly was happening to Aion while everyone was affected for the Christmas future curse on the 27th. ~~Which I... totally made up on the spot just now because I am full of fail and couldn't join you guys for that curse! =TTOTT=;;;~~ and as pathetic as my attempt may be, I wanted to make an opportunity for other muns to interact with him if they've wanted to in the past, so same as before, open action log to Cathedral ppl, and public voice post for everyone else~<3 Thanks guys and I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday!]

Do you want company?

To give me an even bigger one? Ha ha

If you wish.

I would bring a stronger analgesic with me in that case.

(ooc; Action?)

Ha ha ha... All right.

[She had used work as an excuse of Escapism from the latter curses, she had loved Christmas dinner but the day as a child. The day she felt whole again, she recalled what was to be human or the closest she could feel as human before... she changed. That experience was bitter, knowing what she lost and also... witnessing what Chrono and Aion lost.

She had taken a shower, changed from workclothes and dried her hair when noticed Aion's message in the Network. Curses must have bothered him too.

It was routine really, checking on him had became a daily past time as she watered her garden, attended to mass or went to work. She stood behind his door and knocked it twice.]

[The number of curses that he had been affected by was like a bad joke. It bothered him that he didn't have the slightest memory of what had gone on during the child's day except for finding himself bare in his bed. Now, he had slept for an entire day without fore warning. That certainly didn't leave a good taste in his mouth. Uncertainty scared him as much as it scared anyone else. That was why he was very particular on things going according to his plans.

Hearing the knock on the door, that had been becoming more and more familiar these days, Aion simply stayed put with his eyes still closed as he called out. He knew it had to be her.]

Come in, Lilith.

I'm becoming predictable, you knew who it was.

[She pointed out amused after she made herself in. Her expression became more serious when she shut the door softly behind her.]

What is wrong?

[Aion kept silent for another minute before slowly glancing towards her while still reclined in his chair. He had to find out whether what the others were telling him was true or not. Was it really a vision of the future? His future? The demon decided to work his way into it. His tone just as serious, though low and kept calm.]

Where were you yesterday, during the curse?

[Yesterday's curse. Lilith remembered it briefly, it was brief because her "future" didn't last longer than a few minutes once she returned.]

I awoke and went to the Hospital, I had a double shift that day, Aion.

[She paused.]

What did you see?

[So she was awake as well. Was he the only one sleeping all day? This didn't sound good at all.]

Nothing. I slept all day and only woke up early this morning.

That isn't normal for you, Aion.

[She studies him.]

The curse affected us in a different manner.

Tell me about it.

[Aion sarcastically snickered while covering his face. Nothing is normal anymore. Sitting more erect, he turned to face Lilith.]

And? How about you? What did you see?

What I expected to see.

[Deadpan voice. Her expression softens.]

And you, Aion? It was something you didn't expect, wasn't it? Talk to me, I don't think you are feeling as well as you pretend to be.

Like I said, I saw nothing. Whether it means something or not...

[Aion trailed his words and turned his head towards the window. He let out an amused cackle as he continued.]

Perhaps it's a little warning from the deities. Heh. This should be good.

It does mean something.

[She looked at him concerned and rose to follow him. He must believe his laughter diverted her attention.]

Ah... I saw nothing myself.

[Aion adjusted his glasses and glanced towards her again. He half jokingly asked though with a solemn expression on his face.]

Then, tell me, what does it mean?

Don't you know already?

[Lilith met his glance, steady, almost sorrowful.]

I believe you do.

Hmph, I suppose we`ll have to see, won`t we? [An amused sigh escaping him, Aion shrugged it off. It couldn`t be true. Things have gone smoothly up to this point. He was going to make sure things stayed that way. The darkness. It could have meant anything. He convinced himself that he was just being psyched out by those bastards.]

Either way, I`ve held my end. I assume my lessons will continue soon.

[She assents with a nod]

When you are ready, Aion, we will renew the lessons.

Good. [Aion reached inside his pocket for his phone when he remembered the small bag. Pulling it out, he held it out towards Lilith.]

Here. For your efforts. [It was a piece of jewelery, a bracelet, he had picked up during their time out shopping. She had bought something for him. He wasn`t about to stay in debt to her services and simply considered it as part of her deal. The demon thought of it as a good way to keep a good working relation. She was a big asset to his plans after all.]

For Christmas?

[She asked, taking the bag and opened it, her smile widened. Lilith slid the bracelet in her wrist. ]

This is very beautiful. Thank you.

[She made a pause and looked for something in her pocket. A pendant like the one she had of her "family" in Mars with different design.]

This is the only copy of the Christmas dinner picture. A hologram of it. Ah... I want you to keep it, Aion.

Don`t mention it.

[Aion watched Lilith rummage through her belongings when she pulls out the device he`d seen once before. The pendant that held all those 3D pictures. The sinner was a bit surprised to her offer, slowly taking it with one hand. Opening it, he briefly stared at the picture before putting it away.]

All right. Thanks, Lilith. [A rare geniuine smile on his face.]

[She returned the smile, schooling her expression to not display any open sadness. It was strange for her to experience a pang of regret when gave away the hologram displayer.

She gave that to him because keeping it wouldn't do any use. He still had hopes of living, regardless of his vision of the future, while she knew it was the inevitable outcome as soon as she returned.]

You are welcome.
