( Alexiel is glaring at her communicator, her eyes glowing malevolently. She is sitting at a bar and a number of empty (and large) cups are scattered in front of her. )

I don't feel anything. ( Drunk or otherwise. No, that's not true, actually. She's still pissed off and the alcohol only splashes against the barrier of her rage. Useless. )

Nothing can make this better. ( She shoves the cups off of the bar and stands up. As the glass shatters on impact, she stands up. Immediately, the room spins and she covers her mouth with her hand, coughing.

So she had been wrong. There is an effect. It's just not the one she wants. )

Visiting or so it seems.

Then... ( She doesn't know if she wants to see them.

Well, no, of course she wants to see them. But watching them disappear again...

Something had broken in her before. )

[Oh she doesn't have to tell Hatter about it, really she doesn't.]

Alexiel...he is not Kira. [And ne's not sure if that will be better or worst when the time comes.]

[confined_to_briah]

( Surprisingly, that doesn't change much for her. )

I know him either way.

[indecent_butterfly]

[No, but it means everything to nem.]

True, but he was not what this One wanted. Even if he does not want as well.

[confined_to_briah]

You preferred Kira? ( Or was Lucifer...not himself? ) Perhaps I should seek him out.

video; //private

[indecent_butterfly]

No. Kira was not the proper one. [He tried.]

He has been looking for you. [Or rather had nem looking. Same thing really. And ne'd ask if Alexiel needed any help, but ne doesn't want to suggest anything.]

Proper has very little to do with it.

... ( Damn it all. Why does her heart beat a little faster at those words? ) Then I should find him first.

[For the same reason nirs did the instant he said nir name.]

He can be directed to you instead.

[Flying while intoxicated isn't a good idea. Also, just stay home next time--the castle has a very well stocked bar.]

( But that would be sharing her misery and she tries not to do that.

However she is getting up and walking to the door now. )

How kind.

[indecent_butterfly]

[Who better to share it with than one who knows it as well?]

Not really.

[confined_to_briah]

( Sadly, that's true.

She gives nim a look that clearly says: "I was being sarcastic." before continuing. )

I'm not sure if I want these weekends to happen more often or less often.

video; //private

[indecent_butterfly]

Which ever hurts less. [Not that ne can say which that would be right now.] Perhaps not at all.

video; //private

[confined_to_briah]

They might be the same.

video; //private

[indecent_butterfly]

Would that not be best? It is too much otherwise.

video; //private

[confined_to_briah]

I don't mind it, but seeing them...

I prefer them visiting.

video; //private

[indecent_butterfly]

It is not the visiting that bothers but the departure. But it is worth it for the time allowed and the promise to come. [Ne gets to see him again one day.]

video; //private

[confined_to_briah]

We must bear the burden for the brief joy they give us, Hatter.

video; //private

[indecent_butterfly]

True. And there is no need to concern ourselves until after in any case as the weekend will end soon enough.

video; //private

[confined_to_briah]

I won't be far when it ends. ( They can rage together. )

video; //private

[indecent_butterfly]

Until then.

[What an odd pair they've become.]

[confined_to_briah]

( Hey it beats being alone. And it's not like they don't know about their pasts to some degree. )

Mm.
