'Dite's Decadent Delights, Tuesday afternoon

[trigons_child]

Raven was at work, but very distracted. She was going over her old notes from Lady Ghanima's Destiny and Free Will class, trying to reassure herself that she wasn't necessarily going to become the Raven that the boy on the rooftop had said she would be.

Karla had needed to chat with Raven for awhile now, but all of that got co-opted by concern when she entered 'Dite's shop and saw Raven. "Kiss kiss," she called. "Everything okay?"

"Hello, Karla," Raven said, contemplating for a brief moment on how to deflect her friend's concerns. But it was Karla and she'd know if she was hiding something. "I am...troubled," she admitted. "I have met someone from my future. Possible future."

Karla frowned. "Not a good future then?" she asked, definitely looking concerned. Because she understood Raven's fear of what the future might hold for her. "They told you something...upsetting?"

Raven nodded, folding her hands on top of the counter and looking down at them, trying to keep her voice steady. "I do not know who he was, but he knew me," she said. "He called me by name and knew who my father was. He claimed I had done things to hurt my friends...that I had attacked his brother at his wedding."

Sam had finally read the meme was a full-fledged 18 year old adult now, which meant that going into the sex shop for some massage oil shouldn't have been that big of a deal. The problem was, Sam was still Sam, and that meant just looking around made him blush and wish the displays were taller than he was so he could hide better.

Raven looked up when someone came into the store, prepared to be awfully embarrassed as always (she was getting slightly better about not being like that, honest!), but she smiled when she saw Sam. "Sam," she said. "I have been wishing to speak to you."

[psychic_wonder]

"You have?" Sam asked, happy to put his quest on hold for the moment. "What's up?"

"Have you spoken to Chuck recently?" Raven asked, coming out from behind the counter. "I am worried about him. He is in a great deal of pain, but he would not speak to me of it. He tried to tell me he was fine, but he cannot fool my gifts."
