Date: 2013-03-14 06:09 am (UTC)Also you didn't really have to get me anything, you know.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-14 06:18 am (UTC)Didn't anyone else wish you a happy birthday or anything? Did you get other gifts?
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-14 06:48 am (UTC)[She smirks slightly.] Didn't you notice my new boots? [She stretches one of her legs from under the table so that he can see her knee-high steel toe black leather boots. She's joking because there's no reason why he would have noticed. But the fact that she's made a change, even minor, to her outfit means something.] They're from Horst.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-14 08:00 am (UTC)Horst..the guy you're seeing, right?
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-14 01:38 pm (UTC)At his question, she nods.] My boyfriend, yes. [The mere fact of saying that word makes her smile softly.] We arrived here at about the same time, two years ago. He was my best friend. Then he was sent back and brought again a year later. ...Some part of him still remembered me.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-14 06:48 pm (UTC)[Leon took another sip of tea, remembering how weird it was for Raven to be walking around in his mind. But he trusted her so it was alright, even if it was still weird to think about.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-14 07:31 pm (UTC)[And they've restored that bond between them. Which was the most important to the both of them.]
Still if he asked... Of course I would do it for him.
[Like she did it for Leon.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-15 04:31 am (UTC)I'd imagine.
[He's not going to clarify either, but he's more than sure Raven has this Horst guy wrapped around her finger. It would be easy for her to do to anyone.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-15 04:14 pm (UTC)Raven is not going to bring up that double date she discussed with Albedo because... no. Still she's kinda looking forward to Leon and Horst meeting each other.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-15 06:20 pm (UTC)Next time I come over, I'll bring a cake, but you have to tell me what kind you like.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-16 01:27 am (UTC)[The tea is not really a surprise since it's a well-known fact it's Raven's favorite drink. Still Raven blinks when she notices the plush dragon. She reaches out for it, eying it and then Leon quizzically.] ...You're giving me a stuffed toy? [Seriously? She's not quite sure how to take it.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-16 11:02 am (UTC)Chocolate it is.
[And with the dubious look she was giving the toy he shrugged.]
Figured he could use a better home because he would've been a hunted toy at my house. But if you don't like him then I can go get a real one for you if you'd prefer that.
[Really Leon had more than enough pets at the house and not all went on four legs.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-20 05:49 am (UTC)She caresses the plush absentmindedly.] That's the second time I get a stuffed animal in a month's time. And the first times in eighteen years.
Is there a reason why you specifically chose a dragon?
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-25 09:51 pm (UTC)Magic, mythology..things like that in general bring you to mind.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-25 09:58 pm (UTC)[She's teasing him, really.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-25 10:59 pm (UTC)The only God I dealt with was Hades. But I heard a lot of stories about the other ones..never met them though so I'll have to get back to you on which one.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-25 11:23 pm (UTC)...I admit I have a history with dragons. But I'm pretty sure I'll get along with that one.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-26 11:52 pm (UTC)[Action]
Date: 2013-03-27 12:25 am (UTC)[Action]
Date: 2013-03-27 12:57 am (UTC)If I didn't want to know I wouldn't have asked.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-27 01:39 am (UTC)[She's stalling, that much is obvious. She smooths one tail of her cloak. And then pours herself some more tea.]
Once there was a dragon whose name was Malchior. He lived about a thousand years before my time and he was a powerful Dark Wizard too. One day he found his match though: another powerful wizard whose name was Rorek. This one was a good wizard and although he didn't manage to defeat Malchior completely, he managed to trap it into a magic book.
A thousand years later, a young half-demon sorceress found that book. As she began reading the story of those two wizards, Malchior understood this was his opportunity to be set free. He magically switches the names of Rorek and Malchior everywhere in the text, so that Rorek became the evil dragon and Malchior was now the good wizard who had been unfairly trapped into the book. He also added a sketch of the young sorceress at the end of book. Then he used magic to allow the girl to hear his voice and convince her she was the one he had been waiting for for a thousand years and who was supposed to free him.
[During all that speech, she's carefully avoided looking at Leon. And she still doesn't meet his gaze as she picks up her mug and takes a sip.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-28 12:58 am (UTC)Pouring himself another cup there were long moments he didn't say anything and he was sure he could figure out why Raven hadn't told him this before.]
So what happened next?
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-28 01:42 am (UTC)The first spell he taught her was one to materialize him. And even if he was still bound to the book, he could take human form and be with her, hold her in his arms... He was sweet, smart and witty. And soon the sorceress would spend her days in her room with him. Forgetting about her friends and everything else. It was the first time someone seemed to understand and care about her so much. She fell in love with him.
[Raven takes a deep breath and she seems about to stop here. She sets her mug down and goes to stand in front of a nearby window. She's holding the dragon plush in her arms and looks down a it, a smirk curling her lips.]
Weeks later, she had finally learnt enough spells to be able to free Malchior from the book. So that's what she did. But instead of the handsome wizard she expected, a gigantic black dragon appeared in front of her. He laughed at her and in way of thanks for what she had done, decided to kill her along with her friends.
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-29 05:50 pm (UTC)Obviously this dragon didn't kill the girl or her friends she'd forgotten about, right?
[Action]
Date: 2013-03-29 07:41 pm (UTC)But you're right. As soon as she managed to get over the shock of Malchior's betrayal, the girl went to rescue her friends who were bravely fighting the dragon. And she used the one spell she had learnt without telling Malchior... The one that Rorek had used a thousand years ago. And she trapped him back into the book.
After that the sorceress thought for the longest time she was too creepy for anyone to fall in love with her. Genuinely I mean.
[She playfully pokes the plush dragon's forehead and looks back at Leon.] And then I was brought here. [She gives him a small soft smile.] The end.
