Did one of your friends leave the City?

[amadeodivenezia]

You might say a member of my family left.

[auraoftheday]

I'm sorry. Were you close?

[amadeodivenezia]

As close as our natures could allow.

[auraoftheday]

Ohh~ it was like that with my sisters.

Maybe he'll...she'll? Come back.

[amadeodivenezia]

It was inevitable that he would leave me, but this came too soon.

[auraoftheday]

Daniel~ what a nice name.

It is hard to lose someone, I know. Most of my friends from my own world have gone back.

Do you need company?

[amadeodivenezia]

It seems I have many offers tonight. If you find your way to the arcade, I think I will surround myself with people and noise for the evening. I would be pleased to meet you.

My name is Armand.

[auraoftheday]

Good! Positive energy is definitely what you need right now. ♥ The arcade? I've never been there before!

Hello, Armand~ I'm Ty Lee.

[amadeodivenezia]

Hello, Ty Lee. I hope to see you at the arcade.

[auraoftheday]

I have nothing else to do tonight.

[amadeodivenezia]

Then you can tell me what you do on other nights. I enjoy hearing tales of others' lives.

[auraoftheday]

Sure! As long as I get a tale in return~ ♥

[amadeodivenezia]

My stories would be dreary, but I could tell you of my home.

[auraoftheday]

Why? Have you lived a hard life?

[amadeodivenezia]

I have not always lived the life I would want for myself or others.
