Malazar sighs theatrically.
"Of course it wouldn't last. Good evening ma'am, are you new to the Brink or a repeat visitor?"

:::Cora emerges from the hallway, tucking a peice of stray hair back in its place as she enters. She looks around and sees Malazar sitting at his usual table. She's aprehensive for a moment, remember that last time he saw her, she got shot at, but he seems civil at the moment. She also looks over and spots Nyx, she smiles:::
Hello Nyx, ...Malazar. How are you feeling today?

::Nyx tilted her head to look over at Malazar briefly, then looked back to her feet.:: I've come here many, many more times than I think is a healthy amount for one person.
: razz ause.:: What's your name?
::She looked up at Cora, smiling back at her.:: Hi. I'm okay.

Malazar smiles at Cora and nods his greetings.
"Morning lassy, I'm feeling much refreshed. Reinard tells me you stopped by for a visit last night, apologies for not waking up to see you."
He chuckles at Nyx's response and nods.
"Aye, I believe we all can say that. My name is Malazar, pleased to meet you."

:::Cora walks over Nyx, who she noticed seemed a bit glum:::
Nyx, is something the matter?

There's ALWAYS something the matter with me. ::Nyx sighed and shook her head.:: Lately, I've been...resenting The Brink. A lot. I wouldn't go as far as saying that I absolutely hate it, but I'm begining to think I would have been way better off if I never came here in the first place.

:::Cora frowns:::
I can understand resentment... :::she thinks about what she said::: and coming from someone like me, that says something about this place. It is my home. If it's not too forward, may I ask why...? :: biggrin id Nyx know about the Seraphim...has she met him...?:::

"Rare indeed. I'll see you ladies later, I have to get back to my research."
Malazar picks up his mug and walks out to the library.

It turned me into someone completely different than I was. And frankly, I'm not liking that person very much these days.
When it comes right down to it, this place has caused more pain than happiness for me. In the begining things were so good, and I didn't have to worry about a thing... but now it's brought me so much worry and hurt it's like, ugh. ::Nyx leaned back in her chair and sunk down a little.:: It seems like my coming here was the absolute worst thing that's ever happened to me.
::She smirked.:: You know what's funny? Not too long ago, I would have said the exact opposite.

:::Cora nods to Malazar as he leaves, thinking that he's been spending a lot of time studying...she turned her attention back to Nyx:::
If I may ask, what made you change your mind so drastically? What has caused you to be so unhappy?

::Nyx thought.:: Well, first off, the Seraphim. The thought of something happening to this place at his hands scares the living s**t out of me. I'm always scared that he's going to pop up again when I'm not ready for it.
Second... Sho. He came here for the first time at the exact same time as I did. After a while we, well, got together. I worried about him constantly...and still do.
Third would be Namida. See, he's the one who gave me this ::She held up her left hand to show Cora the ring on her finger.::, and he's also the one who ******** what I had with Sho.
Some stupid crap happened between then and now which involved lots of memory loss and a murder, and now everything just... sucks. It all just sucks, and I feel like crap because I know I'm hurting Namida, and probably Sho, too.
I know. It sounds like a really stupid reason to feel the way I do, but I'm no good at explaining things. It's all worse than it sounds. Really.

You...'ve met the Seraphim as well? :::Cora's throat suddenly felt very dry. It was getting serious, the brink was really under attack:::
:::Cora didn't really understand what Nyx said about Namida or Sho...the ring, she recalled Namida looking for a ring, perhaps this was one in the same. She wasn't sure what it meant though:::
I don't understand what you mean, about Namida and Sho...how have you hurt them?

It was kind of a long time ago, but I did.
Well, apparently, you can't be with two people in a romantic way at the same time, no matter how much you love them. ::Nyx cleared her throat, pausing in thought. She knew Cora might not understand something like this exactly.::
I've hurt Sho by simply letting myself fall for Namida's tricks, and I've hurt Namida by letting him know that I was still in love with Shosuro.
Aaaand...I'm hurting them both by holding off on choosing who I really want.
But you know... I've hurt Namida in another way. ::She frowned.:: I don't think I can say it, though.

Romantic...? :::She paused in thought::: You mean you loved them? You are not allowed to love more than one person at the same time? :::Suddenly Cora felt very confused...she was beginning to love so many people...she didn't know:::

It's not that you aren't ALLOWED to. It's that some people can't deal with it. Like the two of them. I can feel love for Namida and Sho both as much as I want, both to the same degree, but being with them is something entirely different. ::Nyx shrugged.:: I need to keep my love for one of them to myself, or something. I don't know what I'm supposed to do.
Bah. Love is needlessly painful and confusing.
