Thread: Lucifer's Angel [ Fieryangel and Terucin ]

Sverdar watched the odd female walk away, his mind a whirlwind of thoughts and images, most of which hardly made any sense when he attempted to wring coherent thoughts from it all. Had she been listening when he stated that he had no hope left to hold onto? To expect forgiveness was pure folly, so all that was left was to hope for forgiveness, and one can't hope if there is no hope to have. Yet she spoke of it with such emotion and force as if it was common and to be expected. He knew his life, and highly doubted there was any forgiveness for people like him. It was simply a fact of life for him at this point, and one he had long since acknowledged and resigned himself to. Now this female came along and seemed hell-bent on trying to change his mind with passioned words and veiled threats. Just who was she, and where had she come from? She didn't seem to be normal to him, and in several aspects that he didn't even fully understand just yet. Karma sure seemed like a bitch, with sister fate sharing the cruel sense of humor. Secondly, he couldn't get a read on her, her emotions, or much about her for that matter. For the pirate captain, he ruled with equal amounts force and cunning part of that came from reading others and being able to predict their actions correctly. However, her emotions seemed to vary to such extreme extents that he couldn't lock her down or make anything out of her, and it was an unsettling notion that there was someone who he couldn't read just because of how unpredictable they were. Within the span of ten seconds, he had seen her go from light amusement to annoyance which verged on outright hatred which in turn gave way to resignation that just as quickly formed into harshly cold and sharp sarcasm. He might have even missed an emotion or two, but that was a very drastic change between different emotion every couple of seconds. He had been out of touch from most people for so long, that he very briefly wondered if that was normal and he had suppressed everything for so long that he couldn't tell what was normal anymore. This female was very different, and her words were filled with such conviction that he doubted that he could just turn and leave her like this. She would just end up making his life harder should he try that. With few other options at his disposal, Sverdar followed after the mysterious female, albeit at a carefully maintained distance. After a few moments of internal organization, he finally decided that he might as well attempt to learn more about this unknown figure. You say several things that make no sense however you say them with more conviction than most men do when describing the passage of time or gravity, Sverdar noted, his voice cutting through the smoke and din without having to shout or raise his tone overmuch. What is it you mean that our fates are tied? Perhaps a better question might be why you decided to leave where you came from to tie our fates together so interchangeably. He wasn't certain if she would answer, or if he would just get another holier-than-thou tirade, but either ay he had to make the effort to understand what he could and gather information now rather than later.
