Welcome to Gaia! ::

-approves Pink's application and calls her, informing her of that-

*Lilith awakes, stretches, showers.
Grabs cup of coffee. Picks up Reisens rental form. Thinking should she update it by adding Maune? Does she want to? It was nice having him here. He likes to cook. What is his connection to Pink? Breathes deeply lets out a long sigh. Puts the form back down. Goes back into bedroom to dress for her day.

Some weeks earlier...

It had been years since he had last seen her, days since he had laid eyes on her again, and only hours since their love found its footing once again. The warrior's strength renewed, he would take the time necessary to ensure he and Iggies would never be apart again.

"Alyraena, I need to talk to you," Exor asked the dark elf who once served alongside him in battle.

"Exor...! I am here and you can speak; what do you wish to talk about?" She crossed her arms and leaned against the opposite wall of the Makai apartment building exterior.

"Rae... I need your help. You're the only one that knows me well enough to recognize any sort of trap I would wander into obliviously... Your skill in combat is nothing to overlook, and I... Well, I can't think of anyone else I could trust to even go with me on this quest of mine, let alone understand it..." He ran a hand through his dark hair.

Alyraena cocked her head in interest, "I don't suppose you intend to go marching wund lil dosib rendan, 'sohna, Exor Omega..."

The Sinner tried to hide a smile, "Lu'oh xunus dos zhaun?"

The dark elf hissed, "Xsa ol, Exor...! Usstan...!" She groaned. "Vel'bol l' uoi'nota zhah ol nindol draeval? Ka ol's whol nindel ssindossa Iggies, Dorn inbal nau aglust d' ol!"

Exor put his hands on his comrade's shoulders to accent his point, "Do this for me..."

Alyraena seethed in fury for a moment, her tongue ready to lash the human before her to ribbons for so much as suggesting such a fool's errand. The look in his eyes, however, quelled her wrath. "...Xsa! I do this for you, Exor Omega... Don't make me regret joining you on this waela z'hind...!" She shrugged his hands from her shoulders and gave him a stern glance.

"...Thank you, Rae..."

"Zu'tour phor lueth ori'gato udossa inbau nindol phor xuil... What do we do first, and when...?" The drow crossed her arms and looked away from Exor.

"Well, first of all, I'm going to ensure we're not missed..." The Sinner produced a pair of stone shards with inscriptions on them. "We'll be asleep until we get back, or at least, that's what everyone will think. If we're comatose, no one will leave our sides at the very worst; this way, the innocent stay out of trouble." He tossed her one of the stone pieces. "Just hold onto that for a few minutes while we prepare to head out..."

"What? Exor, what is this?" She regarded the piece of rock with quiet contempt.

Exor opened the door to the apartment and walked inside, turning his head to his companion to answer her question as she stepped inside, "Think of it as a sort of body double. It's not terribly complex, but it will attune to you and, when activated, will create a copy of you that will seem to the mundane world to be actually you. This copy, however, will simply sleep. It'll probably wind up in the clinic as being comatose, but the machines won't be able to tell the difference." He closed the door behind Alyraena.

She looked at the shard again, noticing its color was beginning to change. "Hmm... All the times I could have used this thing in my travels, rivvil... I'll be ready to leave and never return in a matter of minutes, Exor. Do try to keep me from waiting..."

"Siyo, d'anthe Alyraena," he replied, his tone mocking respect.

They were ready to go within the hour, and the talisman the drow carried was attuned to her and ready for activation. The Sinner infused the stones with energy and in a flash, doppelgangers of the two sprang from the enchantments of the shards.

"Now, we tuck ourselves in and head out."

Alyraena cocked her head, then poked at the life-like imitation of her own form. "...It's that easy...?"

Exor put a hand on her shoulder. "It's that easy," he said with a nod.

-a few less weeks earlier, Asuka leaves a note in Drow on Exor's door-

*Lilith checks her phone for messages from Maune. She has not heard from him. She calls Pink, no answer. She leaves a message. Lilith decides to go to the MW to see if he is there. Lots the door and leaves the apartments.*

Slowly she walks back to the apartments.* Thinking ..sooner or later he will find me. * Looking up at the trees, trying not to cry. She enters the building goes to her apartment. Unlocks the door and enters then closes it. Walks over to fridge puts away the pastries. Keeps a strawberry cheese danish out, pours a glass of milk, parks herself on the sofa and turns on the tv.*
