Lucas ran through a whole gambit of emotions when she entered. It made her smile and sad at the same time. He was excited and afraid, she wished the emotional insights came with more information. Afraid of what? her? her problems? It seemed unfair that she knew what he was feeling.
Fear ran into resolve, and Aria wished she knew what he was thinking. Feelings with out context could be harmful to anyone. But his smile light her heart. His smile pulled at her heart, she wanted to see it all the time. He had a strange affect on her. Aria knew she was staring, she turned back to the pictures and got lost in them. The pain from the two customers were accompanied by Lucas' emotions. Both of them pulling at her in opposite directions. She knew the hunger would win out in the end. The need to be feed was always there, but Lucas was so much different. His emotions showed sympathy and understanding and strength.
He said her name with a smile and for once the hunger fled for more powerful emotions - her own. She smiled back. "I'm not in a rush."
She could stay here all day and be happy. The thought rang true in more than one way, she was actually happy, not just surviving the moment. How things had changed in the course of one day, over meeting one person. Aria didn't think that was ever possible.
Aria tried to focus on the pictures on the wall, but it was not quite the task that kept her mind busy, she'd rather watch Lucas. Instead Aria sat down in one of the chairs to wait. She pulled out her wallet and flipped through what data she had on it. There was a lot going on in her head. The pain still called to her, and she let it in to a small degree, but she focused on Lucas. Her mind wandering from the articles to the pain and back to Lucas. He was very distracting.
The girl under Lucas' needle was in tears, from happy or sadness or the pain Aria didn't know, it was all there in her emotions. She wondered her story. Something she'd never have wondered if not for Lucas' intervention. People never really mattered before. Today, they did. It made the cause she'd started with Tehya all the more clear. The reborn gods were people too. And maybe the prophecies weren't exactly accurate either. War was coming regardless. The CCD and the US would definitely see to that, but was it because of reborn gods, or coincidence. Aria started to wonder what had really happened with Ascendancy. He had a story. Maybe it was time to start looking into it, instead of the now. Aria started pulling up as much of the data from Ascendancy's past as she could find on the internet, the Atharim database would be full of it. Maybe it would shed some light on things.
