Re: The Jaded/The Disaffected (end)
"Ta ta." Nicky put away the shadows and the Stygian Iron sword, letting it mold back into a ring on his hand. Breathed out a long sigh and then collapsed back onto the bed, feeling a little drained. He knew it would pass with a good meal. Wondered, really, what in his father's name he was actually doing, trying to prove. That he'd actually considered taking Emil into the Underworld just to show off. This was why he needed Will. Will kept him centered and from doing stupid things.
Wondered if he'd scared Emil. Got a little smile, pretending to himself that he had. No, that wouldn't have worked out. But maybe, he would take a break, and then go for something to eat. The train still hadn't started moving, yet. He had time, and if he wanted, he was sure he didn't have to end this evening alone.
