"Relax.." Sojo whispered taking his seat back on the stool opposite and continued to eat once more. A few girls were giggling over in the corner, and on the sleeve of their shirt hung Hosted badges. Sojo giggled slightly as he took the last bite of his meal.

Hale noticed the girls giggling in the corner and sighed, this would be bad for business if Sojo kept up the public flirting. If Hale wasn't able to get designations because he was dating outside fo work, he would more than likely get fired. "Just try to keep it low key," he begged softly. Hale only liked attention when he was in the safety of his club because there was protection there; outside, there was none, especially if he wasn't with Sojo.

Sojo looked up and shoot his head simply yes than stood up. "Well I guess this is bye for now," he said sliding a piece of paper with directions to his house across the house and stood up to leave cleaning off his face before he did so.

Hale looked up at Sojo, a curious look upon his face, "I hope I didn't insult you, it's just my nature to keep things hidden, and for our safety as well," he said, worried he may have upset the beautiful god somehow. He reached out and picked up the piece of paper and read it over, "I'll be sure to visit you sometime, maybe bring over my favourite tea; I would certainly like to take the time to meet your ward as well," he added, refering to Hymn. "Have a safe journey," he said, bowing his head a little as Sojo stood up to leave.

"Alright," said Sojo a bit disappointed that he didn't want him to stay. Snickering at the part about Hymn he smiled and began to leave the building, paying the ticket for their food on the way out. As he exited the building he smiled at the bright sun and began walking to a bench, and took a seat, exhausted.

Hale's brow creased a little as he watched Sojo leave, feeling a little bad for not inviting him to stay, but he was the one that seemed he wanted to go. "Geh, I'm so confused," Hale muttered, covering his eyes with his hand and leaning against it, proping himself up on the table with his elbows.
Eventually he got up and went to the counter to pay, only finding that Sojo had paid first. Hale grumbled a bit, "Why am I not allowed to do anything for him?" he muttered, feeling somewhat useless now.
Hale stepped out into the mid-morning sunshine and looked around; spotting Sojo on a bench nearby, Hale strode over and sat next to him, "You know, if you want to spend more time with me, you shouldn't be talking like you want to leave; it confuses me," he smiled, leaning forward against his knees and side-glancing up at Sojo.

"And you know too that I will never be more than a few feet away, when you want me to be near anyway.." Sojo said smiling as he looked at the Aimes Circle. Guards patrolled the castle gates and a few could be spotted randomly. The town really was secure. Looking back to Hale he smiled "What would you like to do oh-might-Hale?"

"Mighty?" Hale chuckled, "I think you've got the wrong man, oh superior god Sojo~" Hale teased back. He leaned back and looked to the azure sky, his dark olive green eyes reflecting the white clouds a they floated by, "So waht are you supposed to be the god of?" he asked, looking at Sojo now.

Sojo looked up at the other in awe of his eyes than though carefully when he was asked the question. "I was.. one of the worst god's you could ask for. Though I maintained a high rank, I was poor at my job. My job was as Lead Adviser of the Human Race. Practically I wrote, all day, every day." he looked down in shame at the ground than returned to speaking "Than I was sent to destroy the human race...as you can see I haven't yet, and I wont.."
Sojo looked to the high guarding walls of the castle remembering instantly what those in heaven looked like, they were the same. Aimes, the holy city. Seemingly replicated after that of Heaven, somewhat. Placing his hands in his lap he looked up to the sky thinking heavily "But, you know, I really enjoy being down here. I still document a little about the human race. Mainly I was in charge of keeping the race balanced out..." He never remembered his position that well, it was a foggy dream it seemed nowadays.

"Hmm?" Hale's expression softened as Sojo told him about himself, "Having no memories of his own was a very hard thing, and thus he liked to hear about other people; probably one of the main factors he was a good host, he liked to listen to everyone. "Writing, huh?" he said softly to himself, "I like to write," he said after a moment.
He was a little bit surprised to hear that Sojo was the god of Humans, or at leasted in some form, "Well, I'm glad you didn't agree to do that, I like living, and I try my best to take care of the world. I don't like it when some god determines my fate without asking me first; why can't they just get rid of the bad people, though I think we do a good enough job of that ourselves," Hale said, nodding a little and looking up at the sky again. "You don't strike me as the type to agree to genocide so easily, nor carry it out just because it was an order. It's not right to ask a guardian to destroy their child," he added after a moments thought.

Sojo just smiled and looked up at him slowly before gazing back out into the distance crossing his arms. "I would agree.." taking a little bit of time to think about he, he crossed one thought with another before snapping out of it. His mind liked to wander, but not this time. Inviting Hale to sit with him he looked down "It's bad enough they want me to do it..."

"They're just to wimpy to dirty their own hands," Hale replied, crossing his legs as he looked up at the sky. Feeling the subject was upsetting Sojo, Hale changed it, "So what role do the Dusts have in all of this?" he asked.

"To show merely a sense of truth, of what life can really be... mine's showed me to love." he said wiping away a tear off his face as he smiled thinking about Hymn's long story about the dust he fell in love with.

"Hrmm?" Hale raised an eyebrow at Sojo, "I wonder what mine will show me," he pondered, producing the ticking bottle from inside his kimono, apparently having taken it from the kitchen table as he left the house.

"Maybe to value the time you have?" he asked looking closely at the bottle before looking away again. The sky had become cloudy as the day ticked on, and soon dark. It looked like a big rainstorm was headed there way. Sojo didn't move though, he just sat in silence as a few people scurried by on their own way home or into work.
