Neros de Riva

his bow from his violin, glancing at Ivy before returning to Illario. "Or would you like to simply listen and watch?"

The elf startled, having been so into the music that his surroundings had melted away for just a moment. His gaze snapped to Illario, releasing a sigh once he realised who was here, the tension in his shoulders gliding away.

"Señor Dellamorte, is there something you need?" He wondered, lowering -

The ballad filled the room, surrounding both of them as Neros closed his eyes, sighing as he relaxed for once. The duet of piano and violin blended perfectly, accentuating both instruments and musicians.

If you passed by, the music flooded out from under the door.

"It's for the character development." I whisper as I subject my blorbos to the unspeakable horrors.

time to practice or play, much less have a duet with someone.

Once his violin was tuned, the elven assassin raised the bow, tightening it adequately and played a light tune as he waited for the other to join him.

Neros stood in the borrowed music room of the Diamond, the sunlight filtering through the large windows as he leaned against a grand piano, tuning his instrument.

He'd invited Ivy to join him, having found put she could play the piano. It'd been a while since he had the -

por amor de dios...

why are my Crow siblings the way that they are?

I'm going to hold your hand when I say this...

Ay, mariposas, no se aguanten más
Hay que crecer aparte y volver
Hacia adelante seguirás
Ya son milagros, rompiendo crisálidas
Hay que volar, hay que encontrar
Su propio futuro

Ay, oruguitas, no se aguanten más
Hay que crecer aparte y volver
Hacia adelante seguirás
Vienen milagros, vienen crisálidas
Hay que partir y construir su propio futuro

Dos oruguitas enamoradas
Pasan sus noches y madrugadas
Llenas de hambre
Siguen andando y navegando un mundo
Que cambia y sigue cambiando
Navegando un mundo
Que cambia y sigue cambiando ~

"That's lovely. I should bring you to my favourite hang out place, lots of music and a nice atmosphere." He replied, leaning forward in intrest.

He studied the map, ears twitching in his concentration. "Spy work? Been a while since I had to do that, but hey, a contract's a contract." He muttered under his breath, hand resting against the hilt of his blade comfortably; a reflex.

"Anything else we should know? Gossip or otherwise?"

The fish are too loud.

I'm going to cry.

"Cute." He mumbled under his breath, watching the scarlet bloom on her features. It suits her. Some small part of his brain itched at the sight of her flustered, he wanted to see that sight more often. Preferably under h—

/No/, focus Neros. This is the first date, you can't be thinking that.

"Maybe some other time." Neros responded with a smile, raising at eyebrow at Ivy's proximity. "I...take it you like the musical arts then?"

play the piano. I know Teia loved it when we played."

He scratched the back of his neck sheepishly, a soft flush falling over his cheeks. "Ah it's nothing too great, I'm not the best violinist in Treviso. Just gave me something to do to keep my hands moving." He chuckled in embarrassment.

"Plus, gave me an excuse to play with other Crows. Quite a few

all I know how to do is play the violin. Which I guess is interesting but I only learned it as dexterity training."

"Wow. Hell of a list you've got there, little bird." He replied, impressed by the number of talents Ivy seemed to have in her possession. The insinuation flew past him, too engrossed in the current topic to realise she was flirting with him.

"I wish I could do that many things. Unfortunately--

He worried at his lower lip, thinking momentarily about a topic of conversation that /wasn't/ boring or generic.

"I saw that you draw, do you have any other talents you might be hiding?"

Neros slid down shingles, hopping across to a near rooftop, rolling to absorb the shock of it. He'd just gotten back from Pietra's and hoped he wasn't too late.

Sighing in relief as he spotted the other two, he slowed his momentum down, joining them.

"Looks like we've got a job to do."

It's really tempting.

Tellement...tellement de choses.

Why are the gods all here. Its just Thursday.

Yep I think that's the route to go. Just ignore and move on as if the Evanuris aren't here. *Laughs nervously*

Yeah.....I feel like we should do something about that but they're just...kind of chilling.

What makes you think I've been dealing in trouble?

Oh that's not—
