| - News Update:
Republic City has gone through a lot of turmoil in the past few days. A plant monster resembling a faceless man emerged from the Spirit World, but was sent back thanks to some good old fashioned detective work by the RCPD. Unfortunately, immediately afterwards, the Purists attempted an assassination on Council Delegate Tenzin & stole documents from City Hall. They are also blamed for explosives planted in the homes of "Lightning Bolt" Zolt & Chief of Police Lin Beifong. The former is currently hospitalized, while the latter is missing. Saikhan will be named interim chief in her absence.
Council Delegate Saxeus assures us that this is just the desperate efforts of a dying gang, & his plan to eliminate them from the streets is working. He & Keter have taken a dive in the polls, Keter because Tarrlok reviewed newspaper clippings and discovered that she is the one who damaged the trees, causing the Spirit to become enraged. Noctis & Tenzin are still ahead of their respective opponents.
In sports news, the Dancing Dragons claim that Venezuela has really been making strides bending solid rock, & is now able to propel small rocks with force & accuracy. On a tangent, Gabe mentioned that a friend of hers had recently become proficient in lightning generation. Their next match will be against the Black Quarry Boar-q-pines. Our other group of underdogs, the White Falls Wolfbats have already defeated their opponents, the Laogai Lion Vultures, and one of these teams will be facing them in the finals.
Finally, it will be raining this morning, but is expected to clear up at night, & for several days afterwards.
====================================== *The next day, Ven is walking down the hall when the ring of Noctis's phone startles her. She looks around, but doesn't see Noctis coming, so she nervously pulls off the ear piece & tries to talk into it.* "H-hello?" Selena<Please speak into the mouthpiece.> *Ven jerks away from the noise assaulting her face, then finds the other end & speaks into it.* "Who is this?" Selena<This is the "Waterbender's Club." It's been a while since Noctis Talea has been in attendance, & we would like to meet with her, as soon as possible. Do you think that you can relay all of that to her?> "Um, yes, sure." *Selena hangs up. Confused, Ven follows suit.* ====================================== *Though he's not sure if this is a good idea, Roatha knocks on Astarte's door.* ====================================== *A guard bangs on the door of the Terrible Trio's cell door.* <Your trial's tomorrow!> ====================================== *Monu is supposed to go to work soon, but doesn't really know what he's supposed to do now, on account of the fact that his boss is dead.* ====================================== *Dalia gets a call telling her that the factory is going to be closed for a few hours for a safety review, & so she shouldn't come in today.* | |

| After a few moments Roatha hears a response muffled by possibly two doors. It sounds like "Who's there?"
"Got it," Hector called back.
Dalia sighed following the call and took up a newspaper. She looked for any news regarding the Agni Kais in custody. | |

| "It's Roatha. I wanted to...I don't even know...."
=============================
*Ven writes the message down & slips it under her door, along with a note that she's going out for a walk. She then heads out.*
=============================
*There is a small mention that their trials are starting tomorrow.*
=============================
*Sitting on a nearby bench is Keter. She has placed a red cushion on it for her to sit on, her legs crossed, & her arms also crossed in her lap. Today, she's wearing a blue dress with a white tie around her waist & opera gloves. If Gabe looks closely, there are faint flames of a darker blue around the bottom & neckline. She is facing her hands, but her eyes are closed.* | |

| Gabe jogged passed without realizing that she was staring.
--
Noct eventually wakes up and notices the note. With a small yawn she goes to her bathroom to freshen up, then heads to her phone to return the phone call. | |

| There was a pause which ended with the sounds of a chair being shifted away from the door and two different locks being undone. The door opened just enough for her face to be visible, allowing Roatha to see that she was pale, sweaty and her eyes were bloodshot. She spoke with a hoarse morning voice, "Would, uh, you like to come in?"
Dalia decided to go to the park, taking the newspaper and a sandwich with her.

=================================
Senthose<Hello, Noctis. Turns out the Big House had some big news that I need to fill everyone in on.>
=================================
*Keter opens her eyes, looking to Gabe & smiling a coy grin.*
<See something you like? And watch out for that lamp post.>
=================================
*The park is basically deserted.* | |

| "Huh?" Gabe said, snapped out of her ogling, with a sudden stop, throwing her arms out in front of her. When she realizes she is okay she also realizes she was caught staring, and feels a wave of embarrassment, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to stare..." Gabe said.
--
"Good to hear your voice again," Noct said, "Should I come in, or can you tell me over the phone?" | |

| "Hold on..." Astarte's face disappeared for a moment and the sound of a chair being pushed further away came back. The door was then opened fully and Astarte gestured for him to come inside while looking over his shoulder at nothing in particular.
Dalia found a shady area and sat down with her things. | |

| *Monu heads out, stopping to pick up some flowers, then heads down to the cafe*
---
*Tirea is in her room, when there's a knock on the door. Her mother walks in*
Ryuku:<Tirea?>
Tirea:<Mom, what are you doing here?>
Ryuku:<Your father called, and said you were very depressed, so I thought we could go out to lunch and shop a bit.>
*Tirea nods, and they exit the house, heading towards Ryuku's car. Once inside, they start off towards the part of Republic cCty with nice restaurants*

*Eve is presumably still at the hospital, reading a newspaper* | |

| Senthose<Thanks, it's good to be back. Anyway, I could probably tell you over the phone, if I had to, but it would probably be best if you could come in.>
=====================================
<No matter, I'm sure you couldn't help but stare. Beauty was meant to be observed, just don't stare at the sun for too long.>
=====================================
*The cafe appears to be closed. He can see Roatha stepping in to the house nearby.*
=====================================
Purist Arrests Continue: As of this morning, there have been 6 more arrests, of 9 total suspects. Police have yet to find the Leader, who attempted to assassinate Council Delegate Tenzin last night, but they believe that they're closing in on her. Some suspects are hinting that they're ready to name Purist Hideouts, as part of a plea bargain. | |

| Astarte closed the door after him, locked it, and pushed the chair back into place, wedged under the door handle. She walked into the living room, "You can take a seat anywhere you like. Do you... would you like something to eat or drink? Tea?" | |

| "It is fine," Noct said, "I'm on my way now. Good bye." With that Noct hung up and went to get dressed in something more appropriate. She changed into a pair of black shoes, and black slacks with a white shirt, and black sunglasses.
She hopped into her car, and drove down to their usual rendezvous.
--
"Uh, yea..." Gabe said, still a bit embarrassed, "I don't really think I want to stare at the sun as much as-- er, you know... things that won't blind me." | |

| *Roatha had enough time to get off, "No, I'm fine, thanks" before a wild wanker appeared at the door.*
=====================================
*The Monsoons recognize her immediately, letting her into the basement. When she gets down there, Selena & Volund are already on the couch. Senthose is, once again, behind the bar. He's ducked down, digging into the fridge, so it's questionable whether or not he knows that Noctis has arrived.*
"The cleaning crew worked all night to get this place in a fit state. Maybe I should give them a raise."
======================================
*The rest of the newspaper is just updates on the previous night. New information is that Tenzin survived & returned to Air Temple Island, that though the spirits victims returned some of the missing people were not among them, & that the owner of the cafe where the shooting took place had died.*
======================================
"I...see....in any case, I should congratulate you on your game."
======================================
*Euryale awakens, & sits up in bed.* | |

| Astarte forced the tiniest of smiles and accepted the flowers, "Thank you... I'm afraid the cafe won't be open today... probably not for a little while. Also, you are very welcome to the funeral if you would like to come. It will be (date and location)."

| "Oh, thanks," Gabe said with a smile, "It was a close one." Gabe felt herself nearly giddy that Keter seemed to be interested in congratulating her.
--
"Care to get me a glass of vodka while you're down there?" Noct asked, walking up to the bar.
--
Mortal stirred and wrapped her arms around Euryale's waist, still sleeping, but mumbling something about being warm and comfortable. | |

| *Euryale's stomach growls.* ================================= "I'll be sure to be there." ================================= *Senthose comes up with 2 glasses of booze.* Selena<Is this about the Purist attack last night?> "Yes & no. The Purists weren't behind that. Well...the shooting & the robbery of City Hall, but other than that, no. It was an inside job. Turns out that the leader of those corrupt cops was an officer named Kane. And I am positive that he is working with Saxeus." Selena<And they double-crossed Zolt?> "They had bigger plans, right from the very beginning." ==================================== "Then I shall have to wish you luck in your game tonight, & the finals tomorrow. Incidentally...that is the date of the election, is it not?" | |

| Gabe nodded, "I do believe so. I plan on voting for you, by the way. I think you're really something special."
--
Noct opts to listen rather than speak, and takes a sip of her drink. When she is done she offers a quick, "Thank you."
--
Mortal grumbles a bit, but blinks awake. She looked up at Euryale and smiled wide, "You're radiantly beautiful, you know that?" She kissed her stomach, then her neck, "Good morning." | |
