I do like the sea. Maybe dragons are too cool for me though.

[A shrug and she grabs a towel that she left on a rack, hanging it around her neck. She's about to head to the bathroom to clean herself up, but then Lien pauses. She glances at Lancer quietly for a few seconds.




Hey.

Are we friends??

[ He's about to roll on his back and be a lazy lump for a few more minutes, when Lien turns and poses this very strange, very sudden question.

Pulling himself up with one hand, he peers over the edge of the couch and stares at his Master for a good few seconds, wondering if this is just another one of those weird things she says only to figuratively trip him up later...

[ ...but when she doesn't follow this up with something else, something to take the earnestness out of this suggestion, he answers with a blunt: ]

Do you want to be?

[ There would probably be a "wake up, I'm your Servant and you're my Master" speech somewhere in here if he felt like it; professionalism, fulfilling roles, etc.

But if she doesn't want to subscribe to that, there's no reason why he should force her to: in a way, it's not bad. Duties are important (he has so much pride, despite it all), but restrictions are just that. Restrictions.

So, in response to her nod, he curls his lips languidly, shrugs and drapes his arms over the side of his chair.

Then we're friends, little miss. Don't waste a Command Spell on this one.
psychometer: (But you didn't have to cut me up)

[If hidden inner happiness could be personified, it would be Lien right now. She doesn't react all that strongly to his answer except with a nod and the instinctive urge to draw the towel around her head like a hood to hide her face.]

I'm showering and then I'll sleep until we head out tonight. Until then, you can dematerialize. Got it?
lansaigh: (1.)

[personal profile] lansaigh 2015-01-28 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ The fact that she replies with such practicality is a hint for him that she's trying not to sound too happy, so he lets her be for now... but not without a knowing narrowing of his eyes, like someone who's just seen something they're not supposed to have and looks all-too-pleased with themselves because of it.

Thankfully, the expression is subtle.
]

Loud and clear. Sleep well, little lady.
psychometer: (Never take life seriously.)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-28 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Mm.

[And with that, she disappears into the bathroom and the door closes.

I don't have a wish, I don't have a wish, I don't have a wish.

It's repeated like a mantra. Lien turns on the water, waiting for it to turn warm as she takes off her piercings.

I don't have a wish.

What drove her to ask him such a question? Because she wished for it. Lien never had a friend aside from her twin and after all they've been through, the Master wasn't certain if it was actually alright to call the being protecting her, a friend. But she got her answer. Lien essentially got what she wanted, right?? So one way or another, there was nothing else to want. But she was only temporarily content with the confirmation of their connection and that bothered her. If he could leave her on those terms, wouldn't that be enough?

I don't have a wish.

Next, the gloves come off. The water is warm by now, but Lien takes a minute to just examine herself in the mirror. Nothing had changed, really. Her hair could use a trim. Lien was already nineteen, but neither she or Ai quite looked their age and she idly wondered if it was because of that nightmarish period in their lives that stunted something or if they were still in the process of growing. Her mind wandered off again as it so often did, wondering why her looks were suddenly so important to her and why she thought about what his point of view was...

["Come back when you're older and I have more to grab".

She GROANS, hands pressed against her face, and squatting to the floor as if surrendering. Lien had inadvertently made herself really, really, REALLY, annoyed upon recalling that foolish banter. By all means, she would have forgotten about such a comment since she had a remarkable ability to forget about things she didn't care about.

Too bad it came back to haunt her because suddenly she cared. She cared and she hated herself for it. And whether she's cursing herself or the Heroic Spirit out in the living room, is up to debate, but she mutters a very angry:
]

Oh, screw you!

[And with that, she throws off her clothes and takes a shower, adjusting the water so that it's a little cooler than intended.]



ACHOO!

[Ok, so maybe a cold shower wasn't the best idea, but it's not going to incapacitate her. After several hours, she's emerged from her room, hair neatly braided, and squinting outside the window from the kitchen.]

Mm. Still foggy, but hopefully it won't get worse.

[ What she doesn't know is that he's as quick with his compliments as he is with his quips, as free with mentioning the good as he is about accepting the bad; he'll tease all he wants about certain things (just try to stop him, really), but when it comes down to it, he's as pleased about using "friends" as a denomination as Lien is.

If he knew she cared, he'd call her stupid— he'd laugh— but as he lingers around, invisible, in the small space of Lien's living room, he comes to the conclusion that the bullheadedness is, in fact, cute.

He has a feeling this is going to boomerang back and bite him in the ass, but, well. What hasn't? Might as well enjoy it while he can.





The sneezing is what brings Lancer drifting back into the here and now, appearing in the same position as where she'd left him a few hours ago, Gae Bolg resting across his chest.

Knowing who we'll be dealing with, it can. [ Thanks, Mr. Headless. ] Bring a flashlight or two with you.
psychometer: (Jiiii)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-28 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
Will do.

[Too bad Headless isn't a gremlin...]

Wonder if his head's found a new body or if he's recovered. Lord forbid he finds another horse.

What, he can do that that easily? Where the hell is he gonna find another headless body just lyin' around?

[ How morbid... horses are more likely, though. ]
psychometer: (I wanna hold you tight!)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-29 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Don't forget Rider's Master! Someone's got to do the dirty work when you have no working hands!

[THAT'S GRUESOME LIEN]
lansaigh: (14.)

[personal profile] lansaigh 2015-01-29 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ LIEN???? ]

...Heard anything about a guy chopping off heads in the news, lately?

[ jerks a thumb towards the television. ]
psychometer: (Fridges are wildlife reoccurences!)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-29 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Don't be silly.

If you're gonna behead someone, you gotta keep the head too you know.

[LIEN....]
lansaigh: (5.)

[personal profile] lansaigh 2015-01-29 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
What would the head be for? A trophy?

[ Don't ask him if he's ever beheaded anyone before, he probably has. ]
psychometer: (Curious and curioser... is that a word?)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-29 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
There's probably some bad spells that need human heads.

Either that, or you keep the skull to talk to when you need company.

[Like a certain detective she knew in another universe

She pulls on her gloves and flexes her fingers.
]

Anyways, think you can crush the head this time?
lansaigh: (8.)

[personal profile] lansaigh 2015-01-30 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ Getting up on his feet, he stretches for a good few seconds, pulling out taut muscles and loosening them for their walk and eventual fight; as casual as an athlete going for their routine jog. ]

Are you really gonna ask that to a guy who's strangled a dog before?
psychometer: (Nothing is sweeter)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-30 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
And don't forget the horse.

[She grins.]

You're kicking his ass and making sure it stays down tonight, you hear?
lansaigh: (13.)

[personal profile] lansaigh 2015-01-30 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ A breath of a laugh, and he taps the blunt end of Gae Bolg against the floor. ]

For my pride, and for our spoken friendship. Sure thing, little lady.
psychometer: (Moon river wider than a mile)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-30 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
... Mm.

[Don't wish, don't wish, don't wish...

Her smile softens as if touched by what he said. It's brief since she moves past him to grab her jacket and head to the door.
]

I'm depending you.
lansaigh: (10.)

[personal profile] lansaigh 2015-01-30 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
[ And as she brushes by, he puts his hand on her head the way he always does, patting once, twice, before also moving to step outside. ]

I'm not gonna give you a reason to be disappointed, so don't worry your little head.
psychometer: (Gotta know reverse psychology)

[personal profile] psychometer 2015-01-30 08:05 am (UTC)(link)
I think I'll just disappoint myself.

[An unsaid detriment to herself. But he didn't have to hear it. She says it to herself because a small pain is better than piling on the hope and having it hit harder later.

☁ ☁ ☁


It's gotten foggier in the city, something that doesn't bode well to Lien. While it's not completely Rider's magic mist, the fact that his energy has spread out over a wider area, thin as it was, isn't good news whatsoever.
]

He better not have made a bigger boundary unless he's planning to go jogging all around the goddamn place.

[personal profile] lansaigh 2015-02-01 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
If he can do all of this as just a head and a borrowed body, we're in for some fun tonight.

[ This is Caster-levels of prana, if Rider can extend his influence over such a wide area. But Lancer isn't too worried, given that a wide range of thin prana isn't as strong as a concentrated amount of it in one place; he's confident that he can win out in strength, either way. ]

How're you feeling?
