Still. . .

Hunger stung in her belly —— and he stirred an unpleasant reaction she quite liked.

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀Strumming a tune 'pon her Trigonon —— music played for @greedofone and other guests. . . though bare feet hidden 'neath rosy silk, Belladrix's leg shook in growing boredom.

What a ploy. Her mentor claimed this to be training —— though she suspected more.

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

As hunger coiled tight in her belly, the demi-god's eyes flicker over to the man whom the other women whispered of.

. . . Nikias.

The name rung no bells in the woman's head —— and she was only here to learn the sweet call of women whom roam the streets at night.

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀That falter —— her breathing is tight for only a moment, then she leans in closer.

❛ ... No, you just —— I was inviting you to share . . . my bed. For a night. Not much to do here —— could keep you comfortable. ❜
⠀

𝘈𝘩.

His smile falters, loosing the threads of wit that could counter her criticism.

. . . Insult?

“ Aren’t we lucky that I’m used to being called all sorts of things. “
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀Lips are pursed, her hand settling on his bicep.

❛ I wanted to see you smile. ❜
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
A silent question tugs at his brows. Her emotions are rarely concealed enough to miss them.

“ . . . ? “

⠀⠀Would she? No. Should she? Yes.

Even then.

❛ Mm. Everything you are. Embarrassing. ❜
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

Without hesitation, Zagreus gives her hand a tender squeeze.

“ Would you elaborate? “
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

@erythrysia angry tapping 'gainst his arm.

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀A snort —— she stops, a hand rising to slip in his.

❛ You're embarrassing. That's why. ❜
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
“ If you did not try to avoid and evade, I would not have to chase. “

An arm outstretched, he stops her.

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀❛ You know this is not fair. You have the strength of Heracles. ❜ A whine, as she tries to maneuver around him.
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

“ Oh no, you don’t. “

And he’s right there to make sure she doesn’t walk away. Again.
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀Cheeks flush, head turns away.

❛ Nevermind. ❜
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
Well? She could’ve told him much earlier.
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀. . . Well.
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
She has sleep-defeating powers?
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀Wouldn't need sleep if he stayed with her.
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
Sleep is for . . . ( those who need it ), and he needed it.
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀. . . Flick her nose?!
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
. . . not what he said!

( It doesn’t bother him. If worst comes to worst, he’ll flick her nose. )
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀. . . So he hates her, never wants to see her again and thinks she's lazy ( ・`д・´)

( none of that is true. she is trying, truly —— she is not as talented as him in 'finding' the route to him )
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
She could overcome her fears and find him instead. They aren’t helping.
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

—— a shaky, nervousness oft reserved for questions regarding 'why she was there'. Hallow, scraping claws against the thread of fate and hoping there was more than just. . . this.

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

⠀
⠀⠀A nasty temper is often the result of her long solitude —— better off that way than burying herself in someone just to 'eat' later ( so she has been told ). Zagreus tastes a little sweet, a little spicy —— not that she's had the honor to fully indulge.
⠀

[𝒁𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑼𝑺. ⭑꒷꒦ @erythrysia]

⠀
She is steady in that position — safe. His shoulder holds most of her weight, his arm keeping her secure. She cannot slip, cannot accidentally fall.

At first, Zagreus expected her breath to flare out in resistance, but she simply clutches the hem of his exomis while —
⠀

[𝐃𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 @Atropidax]

He was kind. He deserved it.

Nasty jealousy over whoever got to see him more, buried.

❛ What if I just poofed —— once I got to our next destination. Would you keep trying? Trade escaping Hades to saving me? ❜ Belladrix's question comes out haughty —— dies into ——
