Velvet Mall // Open

[itsnotaleash]

[Thanatos is currently alone in the Velvet Mall rather late at night. He was tired but lately he could barely sleep at all with the realistic nightmares that occur whenever he had his eyes shut. Anyway, at the moment he is sitting at a table with the Compendium in his arms which he obviously took from Orpheus. He opens the book and leafs through a

[ Mm. An angsty Thanatos. She can sense that from miles away. The winged figure approaches him quietly, and once she's close enough, her arms wrap around him tightly, pulling him into a small embrace from behind, saying no words at all. ]

[itsnotaleash]

[He jerks at the embrace and for a moment panics sleepily until he realizes who it is that is holding him so tight. It's just Miwako ... Relax. He does so, though he slumps a bit in her arms. He didn't realize he was just this exhausted right now.]

Hi, Miwako...

[silentafterglow]

[ We're not Erebus. Or Nyx. Don't worry about it, Death. Though, you have a worried Miwako on your hands, causing the embrace to get warmer. ]

... Hi, Thanatos. [ S-Squeeze. ;A; ]

[itsnotaleash]

[Is squeezed and so leans back into the embrace.]

Mm... How have you been?

[silentafterglow]

[ Sorry Thanatos, we're going to ignore that question, and ask one of our own. Also, she lets go of the embrace in order to pull up a seat next to him. ]

You look exhuasted. What happened?

[itsnotaleash]

I just can't sleep. That's all.

[silentafterglow]

...

[ Chest is open if you need to sleep? B\ ] Thanatos..

[itsnotaleash]

[Looks back down at the Compendium.] Yeah...?

[silentafterglow]

[ Scoots back in her chair, just in case Thanatos might throttle her. Or something. ]

Orpheus told me to keep you here, after he returns to be the seal. He wants me to make sure you go back and continue your training.

[itsnotaleash]

[Gets up out of his seat with the Compendium still in his arms.] That's ridiculous... You can't just keep me here and he knows that.

[silentafterglow]

[ As reflex her hands go in front of her face. But she realizes that he's not going to hit her. Or anything like that. ] I told him that, but... [ Sigh. ] A promise is a promise.

[itsnotaleash]

... A promise you'll have to break.

[Turns to leave.]

[silentafterglow]

[ Suddenly grabs at his scarf, now tugging him back. ]

No.

[itsnotaleash]

... Miwako. Let me go.

[silentafterglow]

... I can't.

[itsnotaleash]

... Why?
