Aria felt the familiar presence of her now current ... employer?? He wasn't exactly her friend. And she was not about to call him her savior. Aria sighed she seemed to keep finding herself in the need of being saved by godlings. She was starting to feel inadequate.
Aria focused on those feelings of inadequacy instead of the fury that wanted to rise at what Manix had done to her. But she was unprepared for the trick of the eye Manix employed. It made Aria wonder how many tricks he had. He seemed as skilled as Ascendancy who was far more experienced. Was there a way to tell how skilled or powerful the godlings were? She'd have to ask Nox if he'd found anything with in his encounters with various other godlings - they were racking up quite a bit of acquaintances these past few months.
When she saw Manix she refused his arm and walked past him albeit at a much slower pace to facilitate his facade. "I'm not going home yet. My boss has called and I must heed his call or my head will be on the chopping block. I've dallied long enough."
Aria continued towards the Enlightened District and the Baccarrat mansion. "I suggest if you intend to walk with me you discard your disguise, you are too close to the hunters and if there is even a doubt of what you are they won't hesitate to put a bullet in your head."
Aria didn't pause to wait for Manix nor his consensus. "What do you want? I don't suppose you followed me just to walk you home."
She knew her words were gruff, but she was about to dangle a very dangerous carrot in front of very dangerous men and she was completely without out her ability to feel other people - all because of his meddling.
((no need to move it))
