Welcome to Gaia! ::

No, Cora. Its not that. I... I should've given you a choice. I should have found a way to make things better... I.....

*Tavin starts to fade away*

Cora, I am sorry... and please..... Give Alex another chance.

*Tavin disappears*

Tac faded in midstride, his right pantleg blackened slightly, but looking no worse for wear. He seemed to be escorting someone through a building as he spoke, "...PD, and some old. Now I think we have the forces to expand outwards and serve these peo...ple...Well...damn." He glanced about, no longer in the GPD speaking with Fae, "Meh, she'll still be around, might as well think up some punishment for Orcus while I'm here. Cheeky b*****d. Who the hell blows up a desk?" Yup, he was talking to himself again.

Tac doesn't notice her as yet, rather focused upon the task at hand. Sliding a chair out he plops down and lifts his feet to rest on the table it had been pulled from, facing mostly away from Cora. He fiddles with an orange tinted bracer on his left arm as he thinks, "Hmm...hang him from a flagpole? Nah...toss him to a dog or two? No...I could dunk him in water like every few seconds for the next week..."

"..ive him to the ca-" It was then that he caught a sound, confirmed by Cora clearing her throat. His eyes squinted as his face twisted up in confusion, Nah... He wanted to shake it off, but there was someone there, and he knew who it was likely to be. He turned to glance back, his chair tilting back slightly as he turned to catch a glimpse of her, but he cast his eyes back to the table, "Hey...been a while since I last saw you, quite a bit longer since..."I saw you without your arms draped around the b*****d, Alex. He might have wanted to say it, but didn't.

He gave a light sigh,"No, not nearly as often, likely...two or three times in the past few months, I'd say. Heh, I remember a time where it might be multiple times in a day." He let out a sigh and slowly let his feet back down to the ground, turning to look at her, eyes hidden behind his shades, "How have you an-" he winced ever so slightly, "how have you been? You...look good, the long hair and all."

Tac's lips curled up in what might be called a smile, but it was weighted so by the air that it was hardly there at all. He gave a slight nod, "Good...thats good. Maybe you could get someone to conjure you up some scizors or something? I think it looks better long, but too long might be a problem. Brink would get its own personal Rapunzel, golden tresses and all."

His smile might actually have become a smile, "Even if it doesn't grow quite so long, by comparison to most, it would surely be long indeed, given time." He turned back away from her as she made for the bar, thoughts dancing about him, but also a certain fear. It wasn't a fear of anyone or anything particular, but a grouping, mainly what he'd do if Alex showed up and ruined such a tear-free reunion. Though beyond that it was just what Cora might say. He'd been an a**, he knew that much. He had lied and paid the price, but that was in the past, or as close to one as this place could get. Closing his eyes for a moment he slid from his seat and up into a stand, heading towards the bar, but not directly for Cora as yet, "So...what have you been reading?"

He quirked a brow as he slid up against the bar a few stools down, though not sitting, "You think this place would allow any books that tell us its secrets? Thats too easy, like buying the strategy guide to a game. Yeah, its helpful, but it cuts out the excitement of the journey. Plus, if most people told their friends about this place, they'd likely find themselves in an asylum right quick. Myself...maybe not quite so much. People know I'm...eccentric, among other things."
