[[First off Aria isn't stupid, she'd not have mentioned him if Jaxen were still missing. That thread started back in May, at the beginning of December in game, this one was started well afterwards, so closer to then end of December I hope anyway. We don't know the outcome of that thread yet. We both made assumptions that don't apparently agree lol. I'll go with it, but wanted you to know that Aria isn't careless. Timelines suck!]]
Aria tried to keep her smile from showing, it was amusing knowing what others were feeling. Aria couldn't imagine what was making Lucas 'smile' inside. Thoughts she wished it was much more than the feelings, knowing their thoughts. But that would probably be way too much to handle. Feelings would do. It was a unique ability. One that was a burden, but made her life interesting.
Rune glared at her for bringing up the topic. Aria shrugged and muttered "Musta heard wrong then. He's in the tabloid as much as the weird things that supposedly go on around here."
Aria dropped it. Whatever. It wasn't a big deal. She'd catch up with her later and they could talk, and probably get chewed out. Typical for Aria she supposed. No one was ever happy.
Thalia was curious about the drawing. Aria turned her forearm so she could see the drawing Lucas had made. He was still working, and it was no where near finished, but it was coming along nicely. Aria smiled. "Lucas' work."
Aria really liked the dragons, it depicted the struggle very well. Light and dark, right and wrong, good and evil. It was a reflection on everything she'd been going through, including doubting the cause she'd been trained for - killing gods didn't appeal to her. Not only was it dangerous, but they were just men and women, normal people who just happened to get this extraordinary gift and the Atharim hunted them out of fear. She'd read the stories, she'd dug deep into the findings as far as she could go. And yet Aria still didn't want to kill them, much less kill anyone else.
Aria sat back and nodded to Lucas. "You can start again when you are ready."
Aria focused on the flame and drifted into emptiness, she didn't want to think on anything.
