Of Monsters and Magic

[Nox]

Nox grinned at her greeting. "This is Cain."
Nox stepped inside the small studio apartment and saw Elias sitting on the couch wearing a white t-shirt which made Nox blink quickly before for he smiled at the man who was ignoring him as he flipped through one of Aria's books. "That's Elias on the couch. This is Asha."


Introductions over Nox held up the package of the doorknob and handed Asha a new key. "Aria's exish boyfriend is back in town. He has a key. I can't exactly ask him for it back. But I can change the locks. I don't think you want him just sauntering right on in."
Not that a lock was going to stop Dane if he wanted in. But it was still the principle of the matter.

"I also need one of Aria's books. She's loaning it out."
Girl was worse than he was about his toys. "I won't be long. Really didn't mean to disturb your company."
He grinned and winked at her. Not that he saw Elias actually making a move, but hey he was here. That was a big step for the emotionally constipated guy he'd met on the street.

Nox didn't wait long before he started taking apart the old door knob. He had been stupid and forgotten a screwdriver. Thankfully the power was a good tool and he quickly pulled on his power and made a flat disk of earth and dropped the power after he tied off the weave. "Aria needs the Journal of Elenora Martello. It'll be the oldest one in the collection."
