[ and the immortal witch can be found idly lounging on a plush red bean bag in the glass room, cheese-kun tight in one arm and on her body, the other arm holding a cup of coffee. after a certain... early morning experience, she might as well get some more energy for whatever that comes later on in the day. she felt fine, no insistent need to spill

[there she was... he calmly approaches her. as a mad scientist, her purpose had been fulfilled. so...all he could be was himself. and that was guilty, and contemplative over what to say, or what to do, rather. guess he'd have to make things up as he went along. no plan was good for him at times. but he sweetened the deal ad he stood behind C.C., carrying a fresh box of pizza. extra cheese]

...this was part of the deal, right?

[nemuritor]

[ her eyes already widened at the smell of pizza coming closer, and immediately smirked at chocobo head when he presented her with beloved pizza ]

And the contract has been fulfilled, yes.

[liveandforgive]

Hm. [he takes a seat on the floor in front of her, opening the box of pizza for her. ahhhh, smell that~? it's the scent of making up]

...look, ah... About...

[nemuritor]

[ oh, she does smell it, and immediately dives for a slice, placing cheese-kun beside her beforehand ]

About the botched "experiment"? I gave you a warning.

[liveandforgive]

No, but... I shouldn't have even attempted to pry into your memories.

[lightly sighs, taking a slice for himself, eyes not once leaving her. he wouldn't stumble over what he wanted to say anymore. he did that enough with her as is]

I remember how on edge you were when you were first cursed into talking about your past... And even then, today, I still put you in an uncomfortable spot.

And I'm sorry.

[takes a bite, om nom, swallow. his gaze lowers a little]

Guess for what I saw though, an apology doesn't cut it.

[nemuritor]

[ shrugs, nibbling more on her pizza and going for another ]

At least you don't seem to look crazier this morning. Perhaps the experiment was a success in that regard.

[ she bites more ]

You're an odd one... first, you ask to experience more of that Shock Image. Second, you're apologizing for eavesdropping on my memories, private as they are to me, when I looked into the yours. And it still happened. I think an apology would just leave the situation as is, don't you think? What's done is done.

[liveandforgive]

You served your purpose...

[lets her finish]

I didn't want any of this... I didn't want to push any of this onto you... Guess when the hotel wants something done, you've got no choice. [is musing on all of this and just what Cloud could do for the people here, setting them free]

[nemuritor]

As I said, the Hotel has ways to make the mighty fall. [ will happily finish that pizza, thank you, sipping her coffee at the end of it ]

[liveandforgive]

[oshi-- that was fast]

Mighty...

[nemuritor]

Yes. Some of us have already, time and time again, have done things we wouldn't normally do.

[ and she may sound a bit bitter at this ]

[liveandforgive]

[he knows that there's something that he should say. something that he should do... give him a bit]

Mm... But I wouldn't call myself that.

[nemuritor]

What, "mighty"? I was simply using it as a term for several of the Hotel's residents.

[liveandforgive]

I know... I still wouldn't. [light shrug]

[nemuritor]

I get the feeling you're being modest, and are doing a horrible job at it.

[liveandforgive]

Actually... I think it's true. [just let him finish, C.C.; he's going somewhere with this]

[nemuritor]

Oh?
