"Because either way, you'll either lose me, or your life. Maybe both."
"And what could solve that delima?" he raised an eyebrow and looked at him, eyes seeming slightly lazy and still retaining their vivid hue, his tail out and curling like a cat's behind him.

"Elias! We can't just leave her there. I mean, look.. Where did she go?.."
"She's a succubus," he started, pausing and looking towards her. "In order to survive, they have to live off of human, or demon, souls. She probably went to hunt one down."

"And what could solve that dilemma?"
"You have nothing I want, not at the moment." Carter murmurs, lips curling in distaste "I don't see how you were with that other demon. Too much hair. Though, I guess I can't blame you. I used to love someone else too, at one time."

"But..." her eyes waver as she turns to him, words fading "Alright.." she states finally, lips pursing, tucks a strand of hair behind her ear

Riad gained a thin smile, gaze trailing Carter as he leaned against the bar. "Who, Zlo? Nah, he was a fling. Oddly enough, anyway. I think it was because he tried drugging me, that or he was too drunk to recognize male from female." He grew thoughtful a moment. "Who was yours?"
Words: WORDS Addressed WORDS Mentioned: WORDS
"But... Alright.."
"She's not my responsibility. And with everything about to just explode, I'd rather not be on the streets." Elias held his hand out, expression softening just a little and smoothing the deep crease in his brow. "Anywhere particular you want to go?"

"Who, Zlo? Nah, he was a fling. Oddly enough, anyway. I think it was because he tried drugging me, that or he was too drunk to recognize male from female. Who was yours?"
"Didn't seem that way to me earlier." Carter murmurs, rolling his eyes "You slept with a drunk? Classy." snorting, he shakes his head, barking laugh and grin "Doesn't matter, now does it? I killed him, anyway. Well. Not really. But he is dead. So." his hands clap together

Nodding slightly, her cheeks redden at his words and actions, looks away, gaze wavering "I... You don't have to babysit me, you know." she murmurs, quiet "I'm not your responsibility either, you barely know me."

"Sucks that he died," he murmured in condolences. "I'd ask how, but that's not my business. We're supposed to discuss what it is you're looking for, and how I may or may not lose my head. Are we not?" His expression changed a little, holding a hint of coy as his tail swayed like a cat's would.

"I... You don't have to babysit me, you know. I'm not your responsibility either, you barely know me."
He blinked, then looked away, rubbing the back of his neck. "I wasn't considering it babysitting, Sparrow..." His voice trailed, and his expression grew guarded. "There's just... There's just something I don't understand about you, and it's nagging at me."

"Sucks that he died. I'd ask how, but that's not my business."
"It's not. But if you must know, he killed himself." he murmurs, wicked grin though his eyes flash with pain "Couldn't stand being tormented, simply for the fact that he might have been with me, a guy, was found out by our classmates." his voice turns poisonous, fists clenching
"We're supposed to discuss what it is you're looking for, and how I may or may not lose my head. Are we not?"
Jaw ticking, he sighs, shoving the memories away with a smirk, what little of his humanity remaining fading in that instant "What am I looking for? Nothing. Because everything I had, and needed, is dead. My family. My emotions." chuckling, he shakes his head "Now that I think about it, I don't want your head. At least, not now. If I did that, I'd have nothing to play with."

"Then what is it? What am I to you?..." Eva whispers, the woman's words echoing in her head as she looks at him, lost, face crumpling at his words "I thought..." her voice slips, shaky exhale "I thought, when you showed up at my home, the only person to, that you'd have answers for me. But you don't..."

Elias flinched a little, not used to seeing her expressions. "Sparrow, you're... You're a puzzle I want to solve. And for some reason, after all of the shit I've been through and vowing that I was done with the world, all of it became just meaningless mishaps when you stumbled upon me at the beach." He stuffed his hands into his pockets. "I don't have the answers, neither of us do. But maybe..." His gaze traveled back to her. "We could figure it out together, with what I know and with what you've seen."

"Oh? Do, pray tell how." Carter smirks, arms crossing over his chest

"What I've seen?" Eva whispers, voice cracking as she hugs herself, eyes pricking with tears "All I've seen is nothing but pain, and death. The nightmares... Then one night, I didn't see them, I saw you.." trembling, she slowly looks at him "I want to know.."

"Oh? Do, pray tell how."
"Emotions are flipped like a switch," Riad started. "With the two of you there in one body," he pointed at him, "the switch flipped off. You've got em, they're just showing more of hate and disdain than anything at this point in time."
"What I've seen? All I've seen is nothing but pain, and death. The nightmares... Then one night, I didn't see them, I saw you.. I want to know.."
"Which will help us understand," he replied, studying, then reached out a hand. "C'mere, Sparrow." His voice was low, even a little cautious, but it still held a gentler side.

"Well, that's all I really need." Carter murmurs, laughing before he lifts a glass from a table, throws it at Riad's head "Is that all you had to say?"
"Which will help us understand. C'mere, Sparrow."
"I don't want to ever go through that again.." Eva whispers, eyes wavering before she takes his hand slowly, hesitating

"Well, that's all I really need. Is that all you had to say?"
Riad's tail lashed out and knocked the glass aside, him unflinching. "No. Just another thing, albeit you could take it or leave it." He studied him. "If I may be honest, I do seriously care for you, and would hate to see you go." He gave a lopsided smile. "Especially since we haven't had any time together."
"I don't want to ever go through that again.."
"You won't have to." He pulled her close and wrapped an arm around her shoulders, starting to walk again. "Not with me around."

"What is it?" Carter asks, only half curious, stills when he speaks again, slow smile "Well, that's kind of both of our faults, isn't it?"
"You won't have to. Not with me around."
Leaning against him, Eva's eyes search his face before she slowly relaxes, walking with him "Can we go somewhere and sleep?.."

"Well, that's kind of both of our faults, isn't it?"
Riad gave a half-hearted shrug, leaning his cheek against his hand, propping it up. "I guess so, in the long run." His lips twitched. "Unless you decide to come back, that is."
"Can we go somewhere and sleep?.."
"Course," he replied quietly. "Home along the lake sound good?"

"Unless I decide to come back?" Carter murmurs, laughing "Why, I'm right here."
"Course. Home along the lake sound good?"
"It sounds perfect..." Eva murmurs tiredly, small smile, still pale

Riad blinked at him. "I thought you were threatening to leave. My apologies." He stood straighter though still leaned against the bar. "I wasn't even sure you were still interested."
