Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"Your first reaction to me caused the blades to silence themselves. I thought it strange, that a warrior queen would immediately drop their guard."

They're about half of the length of a human hand and very lightweight.

 

"Hm..."
I take note, thinking.

 

"Our appearances deceive more than a Light Creature's." Shadow Stephanie says, winking.

 

"...What?"

"On that note, I wanted to ask... if your god was concerned over my presence, why wasn't the god of light as well? Plus, I'm surprised your god of time hasn't tried to get at me either, yet." He says, taking a bite of the cake.

 

"Thinking about how to carry all this..."

 

"Lux isn't one for intruding on matters outside his realm. Since you entered mine, or rather, Tenebrae's, she was concerned with your presence. Lux would most likely be concerned if you entered the Realm of Light, but he doesn't mind if you're not posing a possible threat to him," Shadow Stephanie explains, "As for the god of time...I...don't know."

 

"Uhm... maybe a human bag?"

"Do you know if your goddess may be able to give me an insight on the matter?"

 

"Possibly, but what's the matter at hand?" Shadow Stephanie asks, unsure.

 

"I'm just a bit surprised. I refused to seek out the god of time because he is powerless against me, but therefore there may still be a god spreading heresy about me here."

 

"I only have a coin bag, which is small, and half-full of coins, and I don't have these human's currency... how about this?"
I draw my sword, and put it down, and see if the talon can fit inside the sheath.

 

"The god of time is fickle and mysterious. I've personally never met or spoken to him, but I feel like if he wants something done, he'll have already done it," Shadow Stephanie says, "If he wanted to see you, he may already be here."

 

"I guess I wouldn't notice. His magic is completely null around me, so I couldn't differentiate him from a mortal."

The twelve talons don't all fit in the sheath.

 

"That's one way to annoy a god." Shadow Stephanie laughs, eating some more pie.

 

Sivius smiles, returning to his pie.

 

I check how many don't fit.

 

Three.

 

Shadow Stephanie simply eats the rest of her pie, enjoying her time with Sivius.

Once the pair have both finished, the waitress returns and takes their plates.

"I'll bring you your bill." The waitress says as she walks away.

Shadow Stephanie summons silver and bronze coins in her hands, looking through them.

 

"Something wrong?" Sivius asks.

 

"Hm? Oh, I was just checking through my money to make sure I have enough on me to pay." Shadow Stephanie says.

 

"Alright."
I say, dumping the talony back into a pile and putting my sword back.
"Once the armblades come, I'll come back for these, okay?"
