[Who knew there was a crossroads anywhere in the DR? Apparently there is, right here at the point where two dirt paths cross in this courtyard

[Jumps a little at that. She wasn't expecting anyone to be right there behind her.] --Ah! Oh, h-hello, Lavi.

You startled me, aha...

[49thcrossroad]

[Smilesmilesmile~ Been a while since he's seen a Lenalee, you know.]

Hello, Miss Lee.

[fallforthe_sky]

Ah... call me Lenalee?

[49thcrossroad]

[He steeples his fingers together, and touches the tips of his index fingers to his lips. It's the proper about-to-make-a-major-sale sort of gesture]

Lena~lee, then. What brings you out here, Love?

[Because he's pretty sure you summoned him.]

[fallforthesky]

[Ahhhhhh, okay, you're giving her the creeps now. She frowns and tilts her head at the gesture and, more importantly, the nickname.] Oh, just... exploring. Why?

[49thcrossroad]

[To be fair, he thinks he's still at home. This kind of thing is normal to him. Speaking of that, this is not the normal response of a human desperate to make a deal. So, 49 cocks an eyebrow.]

Well you summoned me, didn't ya?

[fallforthe_sky]

'Summoned'? [Shakes her head.] No...?

[49thcrossroad]

[The frown looks a lot less concerned than it really is. He steps around Lenalee to the center of the crossroads, and toes at a small mound in the dirt, until a small tin box comes into view. He nudges it.]

That ain't yours?

[fallforthesky]

[She knits her brows and stares at it.] I've never seen that before in my life.

[49thcrossroad]

[Toes at the tin box a little more, as if trying to silently tell her to open it.] At all?

[fallforthesky]

[As far as she's concerned, if he wants to see what's inside, he should be the one to open it.] Not that I can remember, no.

And derp ><;

[49thcrossroad]

[Normally, he would be opposed to doing it himself, but again... she doesn't look like she's at her wits end for anything. The tin box pushes up through the dirt on its own accord, and the lid snaps open. He tilts his head, examining what's inside.]

Certainly looks like you.

[The picture in there. Because. This was the only way to trap a crossroads demon in the DR.]

Fine with me!

[fallforthesky]

--What?! [She crouches down to look at the photo inside and reaches out a nervous hand to pluck it from the box.] I didn't put that there...

<3~!

[49thcrossroad]

[She'll find there's also a couple of handfuls of gray dirt, and several small bones tied together, if she's even looking. At any rate, 49 crosses his arms.]

Well someone had to, Love, or I wouldn't be here.

[fallforthe_sky]

[She is, and that puts up a ton of red flags.] What do you mean?

[49thcrossroad]

You don't have any idea what I am, do ya?
