"You have an inability to be quiet, don't you?" Raise sighed as he muttered the words, running his fingers through his hair as he made his way to where he had agreed to meet Cassandra. "It doesn't matter-"
"It fucking /does/ matter." Praise grinned as he walked alongside his other half, hands shoved in his pockets as he slouched and that damnable grin on his face. "Bastet, now Cassandra, Throne was all about you that one time, Aurora seems all protective- and then you've got me," He playfully tossed his hair at this, earning himself an eyeroll. "Face it, we must be doing something right.""And that something probably doesn't include you" Raise had entirely given up trying to be discreet about his conversations with praise as he walked through the Sphere. Most people had grown used to it, anyway. Now, as soon as he had a conversation with someone he would commence ignoring his more... violent half, but until then ( ... )

"C'mon, genius. Explain this one. You're socially awkward because of your violent split personality?" Praise scowled. Were he in control he would have kept his hand upon hers and moved in- not backpedaled and created such tension.
Raise frowned in slight frustration. "I'm sorry. I just tend to be..." he gestured, as though searching for a word. "...Anyway." he folded his arms across his midsection, thinking desperately for a change of topic. He was beginning to wish they were still on the topic of memories.
And then she started laughing. He blinked looking up in confusion for a moment, before letting himself smile faintly. "...What is it that's so funny?"

It was a good thing too, because that's when the food decided to show up. Cassandra ordered a roasted bird of some sort and a cool glass of lemonade.
She smiled up at Raise. "You know, you just need to get out more! It'll come to you," she advised.
Reply
"I'm sure it will eventually." He mused, smiling faintly with a content sigh. "And I've gotten better at dealing with people." He admitted. "Perhaps it's the faint commonality that makes things easier." Raise gave another small chuckle as he picked up his utensils, glancing down at the fish before him.
"...Well, at least you're not half bad at this. But you need to look at her more. Don't get stuck as just some friend." Praise warned, leaning back and sitting on the edge of the table. he had wandered back into Raise's vision, amusing himself by visibly looking over the woman. Raise hated the hallucination of his other self. "If she's not doing anything after dinner invite her over to see your models," He lifted a brow and grinned ( ... )
Reply
"I'd love to see the models tonight!" She exclaimed with a bright smile. She didn't think Raise had the time! "But, I have to be in bed early, I have an early job tomorrow," she told Raise.
She pointed at his fish. "How is it?" She asked with a cock to her head.
[OOC: I have college orientation today and tomorrow. So You won't be seeing much of me. SORRY!]

"Well, fuck." Praise frowned, his brows knitting together. "A quickie'd hardly be appropriate on the first date... Maybe we can just fondle her a bit when she comes over. Keep her waiting for next time, eh?"
Why wouldn't Praise stop talking? Raise bit his lip softly, trying his best not to acknowledge the other man and his suggestions. "It's.. it's fine. thank you." He nodded, deciding that eating some of his fish would help him seem more.. well.. normal. "it was a good idea to come here." he smiled, reaching for his drink.
Meanwhile, Praise was still talking mostly to himself, one finger circling the rim of Cassandra's glass. "Invite her over... get a little more intimate... I think she'd be all over that." He grinned. "And if you're too much of a pussy then I'll do it~His grip tightened on the glass at that. He didn't need Praise deciding to take over. "Is everything you have alright?" he finally asked, lifting his brows. "And.. you work in the ( ... )

Cassandra was a bit oblivious to the going ons in Raise's mind. She nodded and was pleased that Raise liked the quaint place that they were dining at.
Watching Raise reach for his glass reminded Cassandra that she was thirsty herself; and so she reached for her own clear glass, unaware that an invisible being was toying with her glass.
After wetting her lips she set the glass down with a smile and wiped her now wet lips. She nodded and said, "yes!"
And then she shook her head no. "I sort of work all over the place," she grinned cheekily at her dinner partner. "I perform maintenance work around all of Edensphere," she explained.
And then she chuckled. "Bingo. Don't you live in section one, too?"
[ooc: Like~~~ ROFLMFAO Hallelujah is funny!]

He nodded. "That sounds like an interesting job." He admitted truthfully. He enjoyed making and fixing the few things he had.. but the idea of doing it all day seemed slightly wearisome. "And I do live in Section One. So you shouldn't be too far from your home." He nodded. "Our house is fairly central in the section." And there he went again with the awkward use of pronouns.
"If she lives close she can stay later.. and come by after work.. Make sure to invite her then." So what if she spoke with him about memories? Praise thought that raise needed a fucking girlfriend. And needed to stop being hit on by that gay brigade.
"What sort of things do you fix?" He tilted his head. "I know Aurora works in housekeeping to keep things clean... I suppose with the communal kitchens and that sort of things?" He knew very little of other jobs- he was genuinely curious about them.
Reply
Did he just say, 'ours'? She took it nothing more than a bit of a high and mighty complex that Raise might have. She nodded and returned, "My house is nearby to the washing area.
"Oh, I fix just about any old sort of thing that needs to be fixed." She took a moment to wet her dry throat once more. "I guess mostly stuff for the community that we live in other than the little nick and nacks around here." She smiled and returned Raise's own question. "And what do you?"
[ooc: I heard that too! I was so interested in season two that I looked around youtube and there were trailers! Some of them were even telling you who the cast is! They all look very much alike to the older characters, but it's weird because they recycle codenames! I think Lockon's replacement is his twin brother!
ALSO! Who is the gay brigade? xD;;]

And Gay Brigade is Drake, Throne, and Want.)
"That's always interesting. At least you have the map, correct?" he asked, pausing to listen to her speak as he took another bite of the food. So she repaired things and traveled the Sphere. "It must be nice to travel so much." he chuckled quietly. He spent most of his own time in the floating islands and Section One- he still hadn't gone to the scavenger's yard with Aurora or Crystala with Throne.
He shook his head at her question. "I'm not that interesting." He laughed. "We--" he caught himself this time-- "I just work at a fruit stand at the marketplace. It hasn't been doing well in the heat, though..." He shook his head.
"We need a better fucking job. Preferably one with access to Section Four. That place has fucking air conditioning. As much as I enjoy laying around shirtless, this has to stop." He was so opinionated.
Reply
She missed his lapse once more. "Fruit??" She said excitedly. "I just love fruit! I'll have to stop by and visit sometime!" And without thinking, she reached over and placed what she hoped was a reassuring hand over his. "There, there!" She said, "I'm sure this heat can't last for that much longer!"
[ooc: LOL! I can definitely see that (regarding gay brigade)
What is a POW?
Also~~ What a coinquidink! LOL My dad owns and works a fruit stand (it's a metal box on the side of the street lol) and on hot days, it's usually most busy since that's what's most refreshing!]
Reply
xD I would have thought the fruit would go bad in the heat.)
Raise was slightly taken aback at her exclamations and grabbing his hand. His face flushed with colour suddenly as he looked down into his drink, trying to disguise the quick blush. "Oh... Oh, ah, right."
"You fucking idiot take her fucking hand and smile at her what the fuck is wrong with you." Praise growled out. He slammed his hand noiselessly on the table. "What is WRONG with you? Take this chance!"
He nodded after a moment. Maybe if he indulged Praise a bit his other would shut up. "It shouldn't.. and it's not so bad, just exhausting." He sighed. "I'm sure it must make traveling a little unpleasant."
Reply
Cassandra pondered over her work as she played with her glass of water. The melting ice cubes clinked against the sides as she played. "When I'm working, I don't so much notice the heat," she admitted. "It's the traveling during the day that it's most unbearable."
She blushed as she thought about the few times where she half disrobed herself from her jumpsuit, only walking around in her sports bra with the cloth zipped up only to her belly button. She only now just realized how indecent she was behaving.
"All this talk about the weather is making me hot," she said teasingly to Raise. Her fork clanked against the now empty dish. She had finished her meal.
[ooc: LOL! That makes a lot of sense, silly tuna! Oh yeah~ We had ice, so maybe fruit would go bad xD]

"Oh come on. There's no way that was worded accidentally. Invite her over, bang her, drop he back off home." Praise rolled his eyes. "If you're not into relationships, make it a one-night thing." Praise was not going to drop this. He did this every time Raise spoke to a mildly attractive woman, getting more and more lewd every time.
"At least the heat should pass soon, as you've stated..." he finally forced out, taking his water and downing much of it.
"So then.. have you only been exploring the tree, or do you frequent the scavenger's yard or wilderness as well?" 'Nice subject change,' he mentally kicked himself.
"...You're cockblocking yourself. What the hell. Do you just hate us?" Praise sighed. "At least I got to watch you squirm."
Reply
She shook her head in the negative fashion. "I'm usually just around the tree," she said. "But every once in a while someone finds a nick nack of something and brings it in for me to fix. Now I have a lot of junk laying around in my home," she chuckled at that last thought.
"Can I have a chocolate cake, please?" She inquired sweetly to the waiter.
Reply
...Does this bitch expect us to pay?
"At least your house must be interesting." He smiled. "If I find anything that needs fixing, I'll be sure to bring it to you." Raise finally seemed to have gotten the Praise's comment to stop bothering him as much, returning to his quiet demeanor.
"And I'm sure the junk lying around is much more fashionable than a barren room." he laughed. "Well.. barren aside from my models."
