:::That did it, now Cora was really confused::: I thought love...was supposed to be a very pleasant feeling. Or at least...that's what I've been feeling... But I can see how it might get confusing.
So, you're only allowed to expose to others the love for one person at a time... what do you mean by 'be with them'?
:::Cora really wishes she didn't sound like an idiot asking all these questions. She feared that she was annoying Nyx more then helping her feel better:::

::Nyx sighed and tilted her head to one side, taking note of Cora's confused look.:: I'm getting the feeling that we aren't talking about the same kind of love here.
There are different kinds of love. There's the love you have for your family and friends, and there's... ::She paused, searching for the word to desribe what she was trying to say.::...*love*. As in...uh...I dunno.
::She paused again.::
*Love* as in, um, what you feel for the person you want to be much closer with than anyone else. Do you understand?

Tac wandered into the main room from the direction of the living quarters, not exactly in a straight line as he wandered, and not exactly in any hurry. He was without his signature trenchcoat, and also lacking a badge and hand wrappings. His two pistols were clearly evident in their special harness that held them closely to the outside of his thigh, at an angle for ease of unholstering. His shirt was wrinkled and his hair, dissheveled as normal, was even more so, the back all matted and bits at a wierd angle, definite bed-head. If this were some sort of play one might think Tac appeared as if called on cue. Oh wait, it sorta is. ^_^

:::Cora turned to see Tac enter. She couldn't help but smile, he was still ridden with sleep. She turns back to Nyx, the smile lingering a moment:::
I think I understand that, Nyx...

::Looking back to Cora, she smiled.:: Ah. Good. ^^

Tac glanced up, having only been half coherent, "Wha? Hmm? Oh! Hey Nyx!" He gave Nyx a half sleep filled wave, but seemed to perk up as he spotted Cora, smiling, "You sleep well, Cora? Hope I wasn't asleep too long, if you were even here to notice."

:::She smiled at him:::
I slept well, thank you...and I have yet to leave the brink since last night. I take it you slept well, you looked like you needed it.

Tac scooted over to Nyx and Cora, scooting out a chair for Cora to sit in, "Slept great, better than my time, of course, I don't think it was location. Come on, sit down, standing gets so..stand like." If she elected to sit, he would push the chair in for her, if not, he'd take a seat in an adjoining chair, but either way, commenting as he moved to sit, "Cora...you got like a small chunk of hair taken out..looks kinda funny." It wasn't something most people would notice, but he had a good angle...and it was Cora.

:::She takes the seat the Tac offers and sits herself down, but looks up at him as he comments:::
Oh goodness, is it that noticable...If the people in my world notice a sudden change they'll know something isn't right... :::She was suddenly concerend, and wished she had a mirror to check herself in:::

Tac twitches at the thought, glancing at Nyx. He knew she could produce a mirror, but the last time he had asked for something from her she had gone all woozy. He looked over to the bar, standing up again and moving towards it to find something mirror-like, "Lets see if we can't find something over here. Improvise a mirror, at the least." He jogs around the bar, ducking down in his search.

:::Cora was attempting to pull the strands closer to her facen to see if she could notice, when suddenly she gasped. The hair, along with her hands were beginning to fade:::
Don't worry Tacitus...it will be alright... :::She looked over at Nyx and nodded a goodbye, then stole one more glance at Tac before she was completely gone:::

Meh, I can get one. ::Confident (maybe a little too much...) that she could do it this time around, Nyx furrowed her brow and concentrated.::
::Aand, a moment later, a small pink handmirror appeared on the table in front of Nyx. She grinned triumphantly, and picked it up.:: See? I did it. ::She began to stand up...and immidiately fell on the floor with a ******** rolled onto her back and looked up to see that Cora was gone, making a frustrated groan.:: DAMMIT.

Tac popped up all the way as he saw Cora fading, giving her a brief wave before she was gone. As Nyx went thud he hopped over the bar, not without a degree of difficulty, and jogged over to her, offering her a hand, "I didn't really want to put any strain on you, not if it wasn't absolutely necessary." He shook his head, "But either way, she's gone now. Hope she doesn't like go back to someone that was staring at her hair for some odd reason or something..."

Hmf... I don't care if I strain myself. ::Nyx accepted his hand up. Once she was on her feet she plopped down right back into her chair. She looked at the mirror she had produced and poked at it.:: I need to be able to do these things properly. I have to practice doing it so I don't nearly kill myself, especially if I might need to do something really important with my powers here...

Tac nodded, "I guess all it takes is practice. I can only hope we'll never have the need for you to use your powers for anything really important. I don't want to think about it, I have problems that are much closer to right here, right now that need dealing with." He let out a brief sigh, "What the hell is this world coming to when you can't even find your own killer? Well, he hasn't killed me yet, but he's trying. Damn ******** robots... Are you sure you're ok though? I need to get back to work, and I don't want to leave you alone, going back to my time, if you're not well."
