[attr="class","life"] ❝ You don't know how to let go Who said this must be all or nothing? [attr="class","les"] L unch time had come around soon enough, and Eraya had gotten on her bike and driven herself to the cafe where she was supposed to meet Oliver. The man had texted her the address of the place, and soon enough, she found the quaint little cafe. She parked her bike and walked through the entryway of the establishment, looking around until her eyes landed on the dark haired man with mismatched eyes. She joined him at his tablet, a bit of small talk ensued before they ordered their lunch. They decided to have their lunch first, followed by a bit of tea or coffee or other drinks of that sort. While she waited for the food to come, she glanced around the place. The cafe was nice and quaint, not too large nor crowded. White, simple tiles covered the floor while the walls had a red-brick wallpaper on it, giving the place a rustic vibe. They were seated at a table for two, with two comfortable chairs of white wood and maroon fabric on either side of a small, mahogany colored wooden table, with a glass layer on top for easier cleaning of food debris. A maroon table cloth covered around 70 percent of the tabletop, going from one chaired side to the other, but leaving some space uncovered near the sides of the table. When their orders finally came, they dug in without much hesitation or words exchanged. They ate in relative silence, hunger the driving factor, Eraya's eyes sometimes flicking up to look at the man, sometimes seeing him focused on his meal and, sometimes, finding his gaze already on her. Soon enough, within half an hour, their lunch had been eaten, their plates taken away, while they ordered their drinks. As the waitress walked away with their orders, she leaned back in her chair, loosening the collar of her white shirt as she relaxed, eyes closed for the momentary reprieve. She had taken off her uniform's jacket and hung it on the back of the chair before she sat down, leaving her in the white shirt and dark knee-length skirt, black stockings and dark heels, which only afforded her an extra inch. Her eyes opened after a few seconds, the frozen twin stars with their black holes in the center, a halo-starburst of white surrounding the pupil, while sapphire leaked in from the outer edges, fragmented by the white streaks. They turned on to Oliver's chocolate-crimson combination of eyes, her pupils contracting an almost unnoticeable amount as they focused. "So, work aside, how has your life been?" She asked, a white hand rising up to absently push some of her bangs out from in front of her eyes, the ebony threads of hair stark in contrast as they slid through the gaps in between her slender fingers. She listened to his answer silently while the waitress fetched their drinks, placing them on the table in front of them. For Oliver, a steaming cup of coffee. For Eraya, a cup of latte. She raised the drink up to her face, holding the cup with one hand and the saucer with the other. She blew on it a couple of times gently before taking a tentative sip from it. Finding it to her liking, she set it down again, her gaze going back to Oliver. | [attr="class","goodness"] EQUIPPED: N/A WORDS: 556 MISC: |

welcome to the Nightmare in my head
say hello to something scary
the monster in your bed just give in and you won't be sorry
[attr="class","oone"] [attr="class","tbbody"]There were certain activities you didn't realize how beneficial having two arms around to complete them were until circumstances forced you to accomplish them with one. Eating was one such activity. Was it horrendously inconvenient to the point of being egregious? No. But did it affect a daily task to the point of being mildly annoying? You betcha. Anything requiring the cutting of a knife was overall not even taken into serious consideration for his meal preferences. Those mismatched eyes had gained an innate ability to skim menus for such items. Practically a skill one would bother putting on their resume at this point. One edible item at a time. It was an unconcious luxery to be able to handle food with two hands. The multi-tasking alone was so easily taken for granted. The ability to already bring one's water up for an immediate sip from a straw whilst to just be lowering one's fork. Each moment allowing a duel tasking would add up after a while. Eraya would definitely finish her meal before Oliver. The silence that had settled amidst chewings and swallows would not be of the awkward variety. Neither had any reason to be. To Oliver's understanding neither of their personalities was the kind to fluster under social pretenses. There was more important and life threatening shit out there to worry about if one was to worry at all. A lunch's lull in conversation was sure as hell not one of them. Eraya would prove patient as Oliver would finish his meal. Beverages would be ordered and by the time they would be set in front of them the first real question would be asked. And she had beat him to it. Oliver had a strong preference of serving the ball to others in conversation. Most other people adored to talk about themselves. Made themselves feel important, smart, worthwhile. It was a good way to test the social waters of a situation, to hand the other person a metaphoric microphone. Mirroring tended to be extremely successful and the wisest path to take overall. But here, because of his slower eating, he was stuck in the circumstances he tried hard to avoid. But to be fair, they had known each other before hand years ago. Plus the fact they had talks both professional and casual just hours beforehand. So the ball being served to him was not a harsh sentencing. "Life has been busy in its own way." Oliver would answer, that polite small smile permanently resting upon his feature. "Got this recently from a magi terrorist under unexpected circumstances." Oliver motioned once to his injured arm in a sling. He had noticed her eyes take notice of it a few times. They were trained to be observant. It wasn't anything akin to staring but enough for him to notice in turn. Just as she would notice any momentary glances directed towards her feminine assets assuredly. They wouldn't be long enough to be popularily considered rude or over the line. But they were still there in existence to be noticed. "The report of which you'll be receiving in full once I finish getting all of the details myself." Indeed, he still needed to have that chat with his Deity of choice. Kalidas Herself would know why his magically inclined weapon had failed in dispersing the fire magi's flames. He'd never come into contact with such a circumstance in his life, hence the broken arm. "As for anything else, mmm ...." Oliver thought a moment. "To be honest I'm rather a work centered person." Sitting back in his seat the man would drum his fingers upon the wooden table top once before he sighed quietly to himself. An action that was dipped in sincerity. This was Eraya after all. "I recently found out I have family." He would begin, knowing that at the time Eraya and him had last even lightly brushed on the subject his folks had already passed away, each in their own way. "So that's been an odd, ehh, transition for me to get used to." If Eraya were to ask for details Oliver would answer. If not, he would pull his cup of coffee closer to his side of the table and ask a generic "How about you?". OOC He's not talking about a long lost daughter unless he has to aka you ask XD Eraya Valentine

[attr="class","life"] ❝ You don't know how to let go Who said this must be all or nothing? [attr="class","les"] E raya had noticed Oliver somewhat struggling with his broken arm, but she didn't dare voice an offer to help him. She knew somewhat of the kind of person he was, and she didn't want to seem like she was admitting him to be unable to handle himself. If he needed help, he would ask for it. The silence that their lunch had progressed with was a welcome, comfortable one, without either of them feeling awkward about it or trying to force a conversation to rid themselves of the silence. She noticed a certain kind of falter in his eyes when she had asked him the question. It was a momentary flash that had Eraya's eyes convey curiousity through the gaze she had on him. However, he seemed to simply ignore it and go on to answering her question, so she focused on that instead, brushing away the thought. Her glacial eyes seemed to crack with a momentary flash of memory as Oliver mentioned the injury he had received from a Magi Terrorist. She had indeed been glancing at his arm out of absent curiousity at times, but never outright staring at it. And she had definitely also observed his glances down where her eyes weren’t, but she was used to having men do that, so she didn’t exactly give it much thought. The thought didn’t even come to her mind, actually. “What happened?” She asked, referring to the Magi Terrorist incident, asking about more details on it. He answered her question by stating that she’d get the details on the report that he’d be giving her later. She nodded, as she leaned back in her chair, the action inadvertently spreading her loosened collar slightly wider, exposing a small visual slice of her defined collar bones. She took no notice of it as she brought her cup up, taking a sip from it. “I’m afraid much hasn’t happened with me like that.” She said, giving him the courtesy of answering her own question after he did. “I came back recently from my station overseeing the new trainees at the Corps to be the supervising officer as I am now.” She took another sip of her latte as a sign that she was done with her line of conversation for the moment. She gave him a knowing smirk as she retorted to his words, “I know what you mean. I barely have anything going on with my work taking up everything.” She paused as Oliver seemed to be conflicted with something. It was something that no one else would notice, but Eraya, having known the man for a while, and being as noticeable to his tells as he was to hers, saw it. She raised an eyebrow as she waited patiently for him until he finally spoke. "I recently found out I have family."The shock that passed through Eraya’s eyes weren’t muted, but they were gone in a flash. She set down her cup as she clasped her fingers together on the table, trying to think of something appropriate to say or ask. She was surprised. Very surprised. But nothing negative. No, she was trying to figure out whether she was happy for her friend or if he needed help regarding it. She knew about his immediate family’s status, and her eyes instantly glanced at his hands for the signs of any rings, finding none. Which only left… Another flash of surprise passed her eyes as she then said, “What’s his… or her... name?” She asked, her voice quiet, holding her surprise in it. She simply was not expecting that line to have dropped so suddenly. She was instantly filled with a sudden urge, thanks to her empathic nature, to help the child. “Who’s the mother?” She asked as well, giving him an apologetic signal through her eyes incase he didn’t want to talk about it, knowing he had the choice of declining to answer if he wanted. Eraya shook her head at his question, as she leaned back again. “I’m afraid nothing interesting has been going on with me. I just got back to Felici a few months ago. And since then, I’ve only been working, going to the gym, going to bars and going to-” She paused, swallowing before continuing, in a slightly more somber tone. “- going to visit my father.”Not many people knew, but Eraya’s father was buried outside, halfway between Felici and Dagos, in a graveyard out in the countryside, inside a small forest. But Oliver knew. After all, he was there during her father’s small funeral, where she had remained strong and silent. And he had been with her after the funeral was over, as Eraya had allowed her strong outer shell to crack and had simply gripped onto Oliver for dear life, sobbing all her pain and regrets into his shoulder. “Nothing’s really happened yet, I’m afraid. Although…” Her eyes lost the pensive shade to them and, instead, glittered with amusement again as she paused, no doubt giving a delay to see if he would do his little head tilt. Because, “I do plan on getting a dog soon. Since it’s been getting a bit boring all alone in my house.” She didn’t say that Oliver’s head-tilting had given her the idea, only silently mused about it in her head. She also didn't say anything about how her statement about the house could've been taken in another meaning, mainly because she didn't notice that meaning when she said it. | [attr="class","goodness"] EQUIPPED: N/A WORDS: 886 MISC: |

[attr="class","oone"] [attr="class","tbbody"]Inhaling through his nose Oliver would gather this thoughts. How to answer that question. How to. How do. "Fire magi." Oliver chose to begin. It was clear that the subject was difficult to put into words for him. Not because of bitterness or poor loser mentality. Eraya herself had probably witnessed Oliver's attitude regarding loss or failure. It didn't happen often but when it did there was no spike in butt hurt pride or bitterness. It was what it was. As Oliver himself had told even River within his hospital room those early first days back in Felici, "I got the shit kicked out of me". That's all it was. This time he'd been bested, next time it would be him. Simple as that. "I don't know how honestly." He began, casting his eyes to the side as he relived those moments. "I was using my runic crafted weapon that has always performed to dispel fire magic ...." The older man would pause as those brows furrowed ever so slightly at the puzzle. The mystery. "But it didn't that time." The pause would linger a time longer, the ambience of the cafe's service and customers filling in the silence. Eventually that mismatched gaze would return to meet Eraya's. "I've been doing this for a long time. And I'm good at what I do. But I have never encountered that in my life or even heard of that before. Not once." The single shoulder of the uninjured arm would raise in a shrug. "The unextinguishing flames demanded my attention and I was overtaken by an attack overhead that I barely succeeded in blocking. Went down after that, vision went black. I've got quite a bit of metal in my arm now to compensate." And the smallest of grins would appear, "I'm going to be a nightmare for airport security from now on." An uncasted hand would reach forward and drag his coffee cup closer to his side of the table where the waitress had set it down. "I'm going to look into the how's of the situation and will report to you once I learn of anything there is to learn. I have a couple of sources that might be able to shed some light on it if anyone can." One of those being his Goddess. Ohhh, the blue Huntress was either going to laugh at his fuck up or punish him for it. Only time would tell which it was going to be but it was best to get it out of the way soon either or. "I didn't go to university for magic but I'd say it's some type of hocus pocus thing I just didn't know about prior. Either that or magi are starting to figure out ways around our specialized weapons which is ... less than desirable." "Her name is Maia." Oliver would begin as the next topic began its descent. He wasn't surprised that Eraya jumped to the conclusion of a child. She was a bright one. "The mother was a one night stand from my teen years." The hunter admitted without shame. However for one that knew him there was a distinct trace of what could be recognized as annoyance? Some sort of negativity. It was not a positive topic for the man. "Didn't know she existed until a social worker was knocking on my door explaining her mother had passed. So it's been, you know, jaunting; Going from single adult life to having a teenager." The officer would chuckle once as he brought his coffee up to his lips. "It's different. Just taking it one day at a time." And would drink lengthily as he listened to Eraya answer his question. "Hey, 'something interesting' is not always a positive. I say we count that as a win." Oliver would nod in understanding. He remembered those months after her father had passed away. He understood the impact of those words. The tone of voice alone was a key give away. Just on cue, Oliver would unconsciously fall prey to Eraya's trap. There it went, the man's head tilted to the side ever so slightly. Gods damn, she knew him even after all these years. "I can understand that. I see you benefiting from a dog. Though," Oliver shrugged once again, speaking as nonchalantly as was humanly possible with zero effort. "You know you can always give me a ring if you're wanting company." The offer was left in the air in a simple manner as Oliver took another lengthier drink from his coffee. Those eyes never diverting from Eraya's since the man felt comfortable in stating so. OOC You can translate company meaning anything you'd want. Eraya Valentine

[attr="class","life"] ❝ You don't know how to let go Who said this must be all or nothing? [attr="class","les"] E raya could not help but be slightly surprised by Oliver’s simple explanation that he had been beaten. Bested. From what Eraya could recall, Oliver had been an exceptionally good fighter. That must’ve only gotten moreso over the years they’ve been apart. To hear that he was beaten by someone in the way he expressed it was unexpected. It was even more strange to hear how Oliver’s runic weapon (Eraya tried to suppress the small flinch she got from hearing of a weapon made from the bones of a slain magi, only showing the smallest reaction with her eyes narrowing and her lips tightening for a split second.) failed to dispel the fire of that magi. Oliver’s last comment about the metal detector didn’t really amuse Eraya though, as she was still deep in thought about the fire terrorist he fought, her brows furrowed. She had a small twinge of worry over Oliver’s arm, but she knew he could take care of himself in regards to that as it was already cast up and healing. “That is a very strange incident indeed. When you submit your report about it later, could you please include visual descriptions on the fire magi?” She said, taking a sip of her drink as she gazed down at his arm again. As Oliver then explained that he’d include more details in his report, she nodded. “I hope it’s only a one time magical thing. If it’s a major thing involving all terrorists… It would be difficult to contain.” She shifted her gaze outwards, weighing a decision she was making. A tough call. Then she looked back at Oliver. “If you find any signs of this fire magi again in the future, I want you to inform me at once.” She then allowed a coy smile to come onto her lips as she added, “As confident I am in your abilities, this person has kicked your ass once. I’d rather it not happen again if I can help it, so I’ll be accompanying you next time.” She said, humor in her eyes at the small taunt, but steel underlying in her voice that clarified that there would be no arguments on that. Aside from him being her friend, she was his CO now and would not let him expose himself to a known high threat. She also wanted to see if this really was a threat, or just a severe misunderstanding. Hearing about Oliver talking about his child was very… strange, to say the least. Eraya had always assumed everyone would, at some point in their life, settle down and have a family. The notion existing was one thing, but to actually see it occur was another entirely. She suddenly felt quite… old. A woman at the peak of her prime, yes, but after the peak was nothing but a downclimb. Those thoughts nagged at the back of her mind but were drowned out about the details she absorbed about Oliver’s daughter that he divulged. Especially since she was a teenager, that age was quite a difficult age to deal with. “I can imagine it to be quite different.” She said, her sapphire ice eyes filled with mixed emotions, indiscernible since she wasn’t really feeling anything in particular aside from too many thoughts on what it was like. But a flair of protectiveness and instinct did flair up inside of her as she fixed her gaze (which had unfocused for a second or two) on him again. “If you ever need help with her, I’m here to help.” She said, imagining her own teenage years as her eyes grew distant again. “I grew up without a mother. My father provided for everything, as I’m sure you do, but… Sometimes, a girl needs another girl to talk to.” She closed her eyes and shook her head, a sad smile coming onto her lips for a second before fading. “I’m not implying anything, but just saying that I’m here to help if you feel like she has something you can’t understand or deal with.” Her voice was sincere despite her foreign feeling to the whole subject. As soon as Oliver tilted his head, Eraya couldn’t help but chuckle, covering her mouth with a slender hand by reflex. But when Oliver threw up his offer in the air, Eraya’s eyes seemed to focus in on him with interest of varying degrees, trying to dissect the intention behind his words. She decided to play the cards in his own game as she shrugged, taking a sip of her drink before saying “That sounds like a good idea. Maybe I’ll give you a ring whenever I’d like to go out for groceries and need someone to help me carry things.” Her voice was just as casual and nonchalant as his had been, as her eyes scanned outside through the window, taking in the view of the street. | [attr="class","goodness"] EQUIPPED: N/A WORDS: 950 or so MISC: |

welcome to the Nightmare in my head
say hello to something scary
the monster in your bed just give in and you won't be sorry
[attr="class","oone"] [attr="class","tbbody"]The order expressed either out of professionalism, concerned care, or both would be met with a grin. "Yes, ma'am." Would be his reply. Truth be told Oliver had already decided to stop by that human wife of his in the near future. A troublesome magi being wed to a pregnant Runic student. That had to be a complicated as fuck relationship. One that he would be ending with Eraya at his side now. That was fine enough. Sure, Oliver would prefer to do it himself but if he had to have someone along for the ride he wouldn't have it any other way than Eraya. Could it have been the runic student bride that had created some bastardized rune that allowed the flames to stand strong? The thought was among a long line of possibilities. An ancient artifact, a god's blessing, some hocus pocus thing he was too ignorant to know about? Speaking to Kalidas would clear up alot hopefully. But the runic angle was definitely one that lingered in the back of his mind. He wouldn't say it was a hunch. But the idea of the University setting up Hunter's Guild with faulty weapons now easily overlooked through some backway illegal runes being dispersed was an idea that his paranoia had built up. Chances it was reality was so staggeringly low it was laughable. But that didn't stop his mind from going down those routes. The offer Valentine would make though would be enough to abruptly halt all lanes of thought. By gods, it stopped the man mid-sip of coffee. Mismatched eyes stared across the table in something that would probably end up being humorous. That was the role he had hoped his best friend for years would have aided him in but would be left with nothing but a note and dust. The moment he had really needed Dullahan in his life, she had disappeared. Some bullshit about finding out who she really was, how her memories had been falsified through some cyborg mumbo jumbo and was now going to live life where he couldn't even know of her phone number. So to have another female friend sitting across the table offering the very thing that he thought he'd never get was staggering for him. Left field. Never expected. "I .... would actually greatly appreciate that." He would respond eventually after what would have been the rather humorous pause. "I don't think there is a single thing about her I understand." Oliver admitted with absolute blunt honesty. "I have the basics down in this whole thing. Like, have food available, make a house key for her, make sure she goes to school and give her one room to live in. But from what I hear, there's more to it than just the basics. And I don't know anything more than just the basics." He trusted the Eraya he knew in his youth to admit that much. Although the plea could be lightly misconstrued by some to have a light comical touch, a "surely he's not entirely serious" hue to it, the reality of the situation was that Oliver was dead serious. No one in the Guild could offer any assistance on the matter, not really. Sure as hell not his own Goddess. The offer for help was not received lightly. As for the last touched subject discussed? Oliver would still be smiling from his gratitude of the previous subject. It would be with a "Hmm," that Oliver would act out the process of consideration. "Well with only one arm I'd assist where possible. But in my personal opinion I think my talents could probably be better used in other activities."
