Convictions: Patience (Night 6-D)

Myrija’s apartment was, probably for the first time in years, a mess, and an impressive one to boot. Cushions were in every corner of the house, various items were left on the floor, and every door was wide open. “Alright, everyone is here.” Myrija stated as Phil entered, but it was hard not to notice even as she spoke. “So how do I get pass you?” 

“What? Baron?!” Sofia stated. “I’d said to stop her from doing this.”

“So this Cendaroki, self-proclaimed ‘Shepherd of Life’ or whatever, has Obb. So where are they? How you gonna get Obb back all by yourself? And is whatever is that bag really gonna help you?”

Myrija looked at the bag over her shoulder briefly before letting drop to the ground. “That stupid, immature, coward of a charlatan grand stands in only one place.” She began with all four of her arms crosse, but, as always with her, they were a flurry of moment soon enough. “And Obb is there, lost and probably scared out of his mind. And it’s my fault,” Myrija looked back Phi slightly.  “because I was busy doing something stupid. So….just…. I…

“Oh that’s enough.” Lydia stated.

Sofia sighed. “Just don’t do anything too insane until until we meet up with you, okay?” 

“I mean it’s me, so no promises.” She winked. “But I’ll try.” Baron had already stepped out of the way, so Myrija just charged through.

“Now, about the rest of our plan.” Sofia stated. “We think it be best you and Baron lead Cendaroki out. You two seem to have maintained a close friendship despite going conflicting directions. And that’s the best lure we have at this point, and we think we two ended up leading more than you realize.”

“Umm, hold on, and what are we doing after that?”  Phil question and watching Sofia rubbed her arm in response.

“At this point, we don’t really know.” Lydia began. “You have to understand it’s been centuries now. Not a lot people believe it such a hard line fate now, and those that do don’t like messing with it.”

“Umm…” Sofia paused, and actually blushed a bit. “I...do...have one idea…”

“Which is?” Baron questioned. “Nothing too selfish, now.”

“S-shut up!” Sofia rebutted. “It would work! If… if it looked like I was winning Phil over a bit…”

“Excuse me?” Phil questioned. “Were you just saying my dedication to my girlfriend was what made me a good choice?”

“That’s just it.” Lydia explained. “You were one of the people Cendaroki  ‘won’. And seeing you, in particular, start to walk away again, would definitely push some buttons.”

“I can hold back, you know?” Sofia stated pouting and crossing her arms. “It doesn’t have to be anything big.”

 “Yeah, I like to see that.” Phil stated. “If one thing you don’t do it’s controlling yourself.”

“Phil-” Lydia started.

“He’s not interested.” Sofia stated turning away and looking down. “It’s fine.” it was clearly not fine just based on her tone alone now.

“So? Any other ideas?” Phil questioned while looking around.

“God, you’re worse than Obb.” Lydia stated. “At least he actually struggle with his emotions.”

“Just what does that-” Phil began.

“Oh, for crying out loud!” Sofia stated stomping a hoof into the ground. “I don’t like that you’re with her, okay?! She’s been trying to run your life since the night we first met. She didn’t even come, and she probably told you not to come.” She did guess correctly. Sophia didn’t want you to have any part in this. “And- And even if you do like me like I like you, you deserve better than that!” Sofia brushed her hair out her face, and turned away again.Sofia didn’t seem like she was going to talk to you anymore, so you read the message on your phone. 

Sophia: Why are you over there? I thought we were done with all of this? Well, whatever, just get back here. We need to talk about the future now, and how we’re going to handle this relationship going forward.
THE PLAN?
-Alright, Sofia can have her fun (go to ending-C)

-You need this to be over with, so we’ll just have to wing it: (go to ending-D)
