*Stands behind her house, in a cleared space in all the snow. Her coat is discarded a few feet away. After a moment, she starts a series of quick movements, obviously a practiced pattern*

[[ooc: Feel free to interrupt her, or come by and watch~]]

*stands there holding the other one. She needs them both to keep practicing. It was a kind of offer, but she'll let Allen decide for himself*

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

*hesitates, and knows he'll feel guilty for it if something happens to her, but... also knows that she's right, and that she's offering*

Sheena, will you... come with me?

[corrinesbell]

...Yes. ...But I'll warn you, if it gets to the point where it's escape with just the two of us or be captured...

*leaves off there*

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

I... won't put you in danger.

[corrinesbell]

I was thinking more along the lines of, 'I'll drag you away if I have to knock you out to do it,' but I'll accept that for now.

*still needs that knife back*

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

*gives the knife a curious look and hands it back*

Hmm... Sheena, I don't... think I've ever seen you fight. That's what you were practicing when I came here, isn't it?

[corrinesbell]

*takes it*

Yeah. This isn't how I usually fight, though. My regular style has some...problems here, without the mana to use my more powerful techniques. Lloyd suggested I try some other weapon, and...well, this is what I'm best at, after cards.

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

Cards? *thinks playing cards* O_o?

I can... still use my Innocence, but... I think you already know, it's normally stronger than this. And... I should be more careful with it. Without Chief Komui here, I doubt anyone could repair it...

[corrinesbell]

*sensing confusion, pulls out a fan-array of her usual cards from seemingly nowhere. Characters are written on them, but they're probably nothing Allen's ever seen*

Well, you're a little off if you think we're running into that place and destroying stuff. That might work sometimes like at Human Ranches, but it won't here.

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

*looks at the card in fascination*

Ah... true. We can't hope to match the Malnosso in power. I can... probably only defeat a level 1 Akuma like this. Not even something stronger than that...

[corrinesbell]

*doesn't quite understand that but she'll go with it*

Right. ...It might take some time, you know.

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

I... I know. I won't give up, no matter how long it takes.

[corrinesbell]

*he reminds her of Lloyd*

Well. ...At the very least, we'll be there when they let him go again, even if we can't get in to get him.

...One other thing. ...Though I doubt you'll agree.

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

I... yes... I... hope it won't be too long...

What is it?

[corrinesbell]

...Bring a coat.

If something happens to me you have to come back here.

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

Ah... yes, I will. Thank you.

I... I won't let anything happen to you.

[corrinesbell]

Actually, might wanna bring some food, too. *doesn't know about his appetite, but it could take, you know, more than a day...*

That's great, but you have to agree anyway.

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

Ah, y-yes, definitely. I'll... um... carry it.

...I-it won't happen.

[corrinesbell]

...Unfortunately, it's too late right now to try leaving. We'd freeze, and that'd get us all nowhere.

Of course. But I still want to hear you agree to it.

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

But...! Lavi...!

...But... I...

[corrinesbell]

I'm serious. We won't get there if we leave right now, and we can't stay out in this overnight. If we try it we won't have to worry about Lavi anymore.

You refuse?

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

All right...

If... something happened to you, I'd... rather look for you as well.

[corrinesbell]

We can leave early in the morning, though. ...It'll give me time to collect my thoughts, anyway.

Yeah, I know that. But there's no point in both of us getting caught if it doesn't have to happen.

*Meanwhile, if they got him and not her she'd keep on looking for him*

[moonstone-curse.livejournal.com]

All right. I'll make preparations.

...Fine. *though, y'know, he plans to come back, and then go back out looking for her >.>*

that icon is so awesome. go srs allen.

[corrinesbell]

Okay. So will I. We'll meet here tomorrow.

*since, y'know, they live next door to each other*
