Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"I found a few gold on the ground back in the alley I saved an Air Guardian."

________________________________

"Sure. Again, be safe."

 

"Oh, it's fine. I have enough, don't worry." Shadow Stephanie says, smiling.

The waitress returns with a small platter and a bill, before leaving again, clearly busy.

Shadow Stephanie picks up the bill, reading it over.

 

Sivius pauses.
"Something wrong?"

 

"You too. See you around."
I start walking back to the border where the armblades were said to arrive.

 

"No, it's just four gold, fifty five silver and ten bronze." Shadow Stephanie says, summoning a few coins in her hand, as well as leaving a gold coin on top of the bill and getting up.

"I'll go pay, darling." Shadow Stephanie says, smiling as she heads to the front desk of the restaurant.

 

They're not there yet. There seems to be a mantis taking cover in the canopy and keeping an eye on the drop off area.

Sivius gives her a smile before sitting and waiting, opting to scrape the remainder of the fudge off his plate and into his mouth.

 

Sivius ends up scraping the table. It seems the waitress came to take his and Shadow Stephanie's plates away when they finished.

"Ready to go?" Shadow Stephanie asks when she returns.

 

I nod to them, sitting down in the area and waiting.

 

Sivius rolls his eyes, yawning.

As Shadow Stephanie returns, he stands up with a nod.
"Yes, dear."

 

Shadow Stephanie offers her hand for Sivius to take as she starts to leave.

 

Ten minutes later, the armblades are placed on the edge of the border.

________________________________

Sivius takes it,walking out alongside her.
"That was nice, thank you."

 

I walk over to the armblades, taking them and looking around.

 

"It's always nice to have a meal with you, Siv!" Shadow Stephanie says happily as she exits. Once outside, she summons a turquoise crystal in her hand, seeming to open a portal with it. Sivius can't sense any magic coming from the crystal, however.

Shadow Stephanie leads Sivius through the portal, ending up back in the Realm of Shadows outside the portal room.

 

They're a slight bit heavy, the transparent-blood thick where the limbs were torn off.

"Well, that was nice. Shall we head to a private room?"

 

"Sure, I know of the perfect room." Shadow Stephanie says, smiling as she heads to an elevator.

 

Sivius follows her.

 

Shadow Stephanie teleports herself and Sivius to seemingly empty hallway, a pair of regal looking doors at the end of it. Sivius can sense the presence of powerful beings guarding the hall, though Shadow Stephanie leads Sivius toward the doors, opening them for him.

Inside is an incredibly regal looking bedroom, queen size four-poster bed within as well as bookshelves, a computer, a fireplace, wardrobe and even a bathroom.

"Very few people are allowed to enter my private chambers." Shadow Stephanie says, her voice sounding silkier than usual as she smiles at Sivius.

 

"It must be nice to have a haven to call your own." He comments as he looks around.

 

I pick up as many as I can in one hand, checking.

 

They seem to be cut off.
You can only carry two in one hand.
