[Locked to Eva]
Oh god ...
The Creators ... they're awake.
And they want to speak to you.
Right now!

...she couldn't think of this like that. That would be flippant. This wasn't just renewing vows, this was... this was leaving behind humanity for good. She'd be a nigh-immortal being, if she accepted.
"I need time," she said. "Jordan, I...." She let her voice trail off, unsure of what to say.

If you choose to renounce your claim to the Avatar's crown, you will lose your right to become Avatar forever. You will live out your natural lifespan as a mortal girl, and you will die a mortals death.
Or you may accept the Avatar's crown and willing share the burden with your husband. The mark upon your back is a symbol of your claim and an indication of your metamorphosis into an immortal being.
Once the mark has been fully realized, and the transformation complete, you will become an Avatar, like Jordan. You will never be able to return to your mortal life, and you will live for ten thousand years.
The transformation will be completed in exactly thirty Earth days, starting now. You have until that time to make a decision.
You must make a choice, Eva. There will be no alternatives.
"Thirty days ...?" Jordan said softly. "That's all?"
She has been changing from the moment you first bound your soul to hers. We have done everything in our power to slow the process ( ... )

Her voice trailed off. Had they been awake all that time? Even through Canaletto's return? Oh, the bastards. How could they take that long?!
How could she come to a decision this important in so few days?

But to become Avatar? She had resolved herself, unwillingly, to the position only to prevent Kross from gaining that power. And she refused the Avatar's crown once before ...
"Are you sure?" Jordan asked. "I mean--"
We have rendered our judgment, the Creators said in unison. One by one, their bodies compressed into shining spheres of light. And now, we must return once more to our eternal slumber.
The blue orbs began to float away toward the vaulted ceiling enshrouded in darkness, just as they had done before.
When Eva has made her choice, you must be the one to carry out her sentence, for good or for ill, Avatar Jordan."Wait!" Jordan said, stepping forward as all but one ( ... )

She paused. "And you have a choice too. Way bigger than mine."
((Augh short tag is shoooort))

"All this time ..." Jordan said, staring at the floor. "The Creators never told me what to do because they wanted me to figure it out on my own. I have no limits: no one to answer to for my actions. I can do anything I want ... my conscience as my only guide."
Slowly, Jordan raised his head and stared at Eva. His eyes were filled with terror and uncertainty. Lost, like a small child who had been separated from his parents.
