By the nature, the Yuan-ti were an Arcane race, both powerful and sensitive to magic. Reva was just a child, true enough, but she had a natural ability for sensing and interpreting magic- even if she wasn't very good using it. When a whisper of power brushed against her, her breath drew short and eyes fluttered shut. Her blood cooled-- only the slightest bit, but she noticed it. When her eyes blinked open, they seemed unfocused and disoriented, but she was trying to pick up what just slithered past her.

Her tongue flickered past her lips, tasting the air in a long, slow motion that gave anyone glancing her way at the long, thin muscle, forked at its tip. That was quite clearly yin magic, and another patron had mentioned a necromancer that came here. The girl's large, reptilian eyes came to focus on a whisper of power, and traced it back to the man in the corner before the energy blurred into the ambient energy of the room. Reva snapped shut her metaphorical third eye and stared across the room toward him.

Before she was close enough to really draw attention to herself, she noticed the woman sitting across from him, and she froze in place with uncertainty. Many times before, humans had chastised her for interrupting, so she tried to be mindful. It was hard for her, being both an adolescent and distinctly not human; the whole thing about manners was... just foreign to her, but going along with it got her in less trouble. Besides, he was a necromancer! What she needed was kind of the opposite type of magic. It was someone like him that hurt her to begin with.

She scratched the back of her hand, both uncertain what to do, and feeling a phantom pain from the curse days before. Screw it. She needed to rave and soon, and couldn't do that without a new flesh-mask.

Reva stepped up to the table as soon as there was a break in conversation and said, "Hey, can I ask a favor?" Oh shoot. What was that phrase humans use, 'excuse me'? Too late now..

[The Ghost of Isadora]

I don't know what I want, so don't ask me,
Cause I'm still trying to figure it out,
Don't know what's down this road, I'm just walking,
Trying to see through the rain coming down,
Even though I'm not the only one,
Who feels the way I do...

Lorelai Rose

Sid took the note back to Lorelai. She read the note and sighed. That wasn't comforting. She was starting to get worried about her niece. "Damn Sid, why can't I read your mind again?" She muttered unhappily. How was she supposed to find Lily without her powers? She growled unhappily.

Lorelai walked to the fighting ring and looked around there, but there was no sign of the girl anywhere. Going back outside, Lorelai sat down, freaked out. She was overwhelmed. The female started breathing heavily, where was her niece?!? Her eyes started to water. Obviously something was wrong, since Sid was sitting beside her, rather than taking her back to her niece.

...I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know,
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong, oh but life goes on,
I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in,
This world

Anthony used a little wind magic to lift the empty whiskey glass into the air, moving it around before setting it on the counter.

"I can manipulate the wind a little. At the very least, I could prevent you from killing yourself, if you fell. There may be some bruises or scrapes involved, though." If he put enough power into it, he aught to be able to catch her with his magic.

He glanced over his shoulder as 'Antonia' called out, and he felt a little guilty. Still, he would spend some time with her, later.

"Sure thing, Antonia. We can spend some time together, later." Even if she was a long lost relative, it was hard to become close to someone in a week. He still barely knew her.

{[Is Reva talking to Tony? I can't tell. If so, I'll edit.}}

~~I don't care how much my body is burnt, if it's for you.
We'll soar into the bright white open sky; I'll protect you. ~~

[er, no, to kastra. should have been more clear.]

[.+Destiny.Eclipsed+.]

She gave a nod to Anthony, then looked off in another direction, toward a wall, her expression relaxing to nothing. But, Pet's question made her smile slightly.

"Hm, sadness," the woman mused, reaching out to take Pet's hand without really looking for it, as if searching for comfort. "Not gone, but I'm dealing. I still can't seem to get the kind of comfort I seek, but... Well. I think I can get the sadness to stop soon enough..."

[[ err.. be right back while i try to capture a quarter sized (possible poisonous) spider that just crawled past me alarm clock reading 2:25 am ))

Tricked by a Fallen Angel.

She got into heaven at my expense.

Meer grinned, a bit more comforted by this. She conjured up some courage and rose, sliding the bar stool away from her slightly with the motion. Alright then, let's try it! She made her way for the door, then hesitated and turned to glance at him over her shoulder. I'm guessing the roof would be a good place to start?

If he agreed and led her to the roof, she would follow, otherwise, she would follow him outside if he had a better idea.

//@Memeth: I don't quite know why but the term Yuan-ti sounds familiar. I think I've read a book that features a race by that name ^^;

[Sopheriel Memeth]

[I know I first heard the term in dungeons and dragons, but before you flip through the monster manual again, I've adapted them a little differently. -smile-]

[Belinda Ingram]

Pet brought the 'Toni's' hand up and gave it a gentle kiss.

"I really am sorry that I've not been able to help you with that seeing you need a man, I'm kind of surprised that you're not having much luck as pretty as you are. Maybe they're too worried what your uncle would do to them since you are obviously related," she continued as she gave her friend a hug, "perhaps you'd have better luck with someone who hasn't met him yet."

She frowned for a moment, still playing the concerned friend even as her mind was trying to guess how 'Toni' might end her sadness in a way that would hurt Anthony.

"Please take care with whatever it is you seek to help you end that if not a man. There are so many things out there that are dangerous to most people even if they give a temporary happiness," she said as she looked into 'Toni's' eyes for a moment, then swiftly leaned in to kiss 'Toni's' nose, "whether by addiction or something else. It really isn't worth it."

Anthony returned her smile, before nodding and leading her up to the roof.

Once there, he would take off his sleeveless shirt, revealing the lean, feline muscles of his torso. Obviously, he couldn't use his own wings unless his clothes were designed for it. Then, he began to release a little bit of his suppressed aura, the invisible, silver hued glow becoming a small, silver flame. In a swift motion, the flames flared out behind him, in the shape of two long, silver wings. At this point, they became visible to the naked eye, flickering with the silver light of the moon. Feathers began to from, from the tip of the wings, and eventually to his back. Flames no more, he now had a bright, regal pair of silver wings.

"Ready?" He would wait for her, and when she made her jump, so would he.

//@Memeth Ah...Perhaps they featured in my favorite D&D spin off them. That being the Forgotten Realms books

[Child of Gehenna]

Nodding as he uncovered the bowl, it occurred to him just how often he'd been fed soup while at the Quill, but he really didn't care right now; he was hungry. Doing his best not to scald his tongue on the broth, Kastra's stomach took a few seconds to warm up to the idea of food, but a few more spoonfuls convinced his body that eating was a very good idea. Controlling his hunger enough so he could watch her unfold the parcel of herbs, the Necromancer recognized some of them and didn't complain as she steeped them in the hot water for him. Sick as he was right now, he didn't much care if she tried to poison him, and it didn't seem all too likely anyways.

"If I'd walked I'd still be trying to find you." He answered, rebuking her comment about it being a 'simple trick'. Setting his spoon down for a moment as the herbs had already tinted the tea an almost teal color, he sniffed it once before swallowing a mouthful of the bitter concoction. It caused an uncomfortable splash in his stomach since his body had been expecting more chicken and rice, but the discomfort vanished as the oils quickly started soothing everything from his sore throat to his light-headed fever.

"And I'm not dying, it's just... whiplash." It was awkward trying to explain, going back to his soup for a few more spoon-fuls of broth. He was peculiar that way; he siphoned off the broth first leaving the ingredients at the bottom for after, same as he'd done with the fox-spirit's miso soup. "I took something that didn't belong to me and was unclean, it's punishment for playing creator." Mixing blood types was never a good thing for the body, ever...

Looking up as she stood and leaned down towards him, Kastra felt a cool hand on his chin and froze as his face was tilted up a little. He opened his mouth to try and ask what she was doing but was quickly silenced by the white mist instead, blinking in surprise as he breathed in reflexively and felt the energy permeate his lungs. It was a strange feeling, not all-together unpleasant, and Kastra caught himself leaning up slightly towards her before Xik finished and quickly went back to her chair. It left him feeling better, but in some way also cheated.

"Huh?" Looking from Xik as he heard a voice, Kastra didn't jump as his eyes were met with a pair of large reptilian orbs, but the sight did snap him into a more coherent mindset. "I... don't see why not... But I can't do much." Unless she wanted him to grab something off a shelf for her; the indian girl was just very short and some of the bottles behind the bar were very high, and he was tall, and that really was the only thing he could think of right now. In his defense, the one-armed man also looked like he'd been dragged through the Styx and only felt just a little better thanks to Xik's care.

"I see" he said, raising an eyebrow at the mention of her friend and a sex change. Fighting,trying to restrain her, he ended up straddling her, getting cut up by the hand batting at him in the process, just so he could finish cleaning the dried blood off of her. "At least I'm only using water, and not alcohol." wiping her tears as he spoke.

Her silver eyes moved to Pet now, and her hand rose to push a bit of the girl's hair behind her ear, a smile on her lips. "Sweet Little Blackbird, watching out for silly Toni. Even as short a time as I've been in this... dimention, you've been such a good friend to me."

The woman leaned forward and pressed her lips to Pet's forehead.
