Lain's pupils constricted for a moment, then relaxed. She gave a gentle, almost shy half-smile, and shook Faye's hand. "Okay. I like kittens, I have one myself..." Lain trailed off, and she takes a few steps to the busy streets of New York.

"Alright then!"Saria replies and moves to follow Lane to the city, but at the last moment before she leaves feels eyes on her and could have sworn she saw to golden eyes in the darkness before they disappeared.

Lain stood at the end of a dock, staring up at the dark sky. She was holding back shy and humiliating tears rather unsuccessfully. She looked down, her short hair coming down also, hiding her face and shameful tears from the world. She attempted to close the raw wound in her heart. It hurts... worse than physical pain... Lain closed her eyes, and remained standing, listening to the gentle lapping of the waves against, under, and around the dock.

Lain knelt down, and she unlaced, unbuckled, and pulled her boots off of her feet. She scooted over the edge of the dock, and let her naked feet dangle downward. She lay back, grimacing lightly as she stared at the full yet strangely empty sky above, the cold ocean water sucking lightly at her toes.

Lain pulls an MP3 Player she had jacked from Radio Shack out of one of many trenchcoat pockets, and she listened to a few Jack Off Jill songs. She had calmed herself down easily, with a combination of the black ocean, and the starry, moonless sky.

Lain picked up the MP3 Player, and she pressed the stop button. Grasping the earphone cords, Lain gently pulled them from her ears, rapped them around the player, and tucked them into a pocket on the inside. She pulled her feet from the ocean, and pulled a new pack of thigh-high fishnets. She took a pair out, pulled up her black cargo pants, and slid them up to a few inches past her knee, and smiled as they remained. She slipped her boots on, and stood, her cargo's falling down to hide her legs and most of her feet.

Lain bent backwards, her hands over her head, and she grasped her ankles, popping her back. Lain stood up, and looked around her. Nothing but shadows... She clasped her hands around her titanium ankh. Why is the black diamond glowing like that...? Lain remained with her hands clasped over it, and she paced on the dock, her booted feet making no sound.

Saria silently crept down the dock towards Lane's sad figure and put her hand on her shoulder.
"Lane? Are you alright?"

Lain let her hair swirl about her, hiding the gleam of sadness in her eyes. "Yeah. I'll be fine." Her fingers still clasped her ankh.

Lain grimaced. "Nah. Nothing, just memories." She closed her eyes for a moment, then reopened them. "Meff."

Saria sighed. The few memories she had were painful, but she still wished she had more of them. "I only wish I had more memories."

Lain smiles lightly. "Maybe." She sighed, then looked up. "Ah, well. It takes rain and sunshine to make a rainbow."

Lain tucked her ankh back into the front of her trenchcoat. "I wish there wasn't so much conflict. I would be a lot happier..." Lain's happiness level dropped about two points, and she studied her boots.
