Log;

A quiet Thursday evening. It seemed as though his mind was everywhere these days. Perhaps a relaxing night was in order. An easy task and what better way to spend such an evening but by scouting out a place with good music. He recalled Jill performing this night too. A good way to start a conversation with anyone who'd care to join him and the perfect ice breaker to pry. A small hole in the wall type place. He was certain he was bound to meet someone interesting.

Dressed in his usual white attire, he sat in a private booth with a drink before him as he stared off towards the stage.

Roommate and almost like a sister. Ah, there it was again. The humanly instinct to act. Whether it was to welcome or keep at bay, he'd find out soon.

"More than I had expected. The music is very similar to those of my era." he softly chuckled with a smile. White suited pants, vest and coat with a gray-ish cravat? Gave away that he wasn't from the modern world.

Lucy does give him another once over when he mentions that but she smiles. It's not a bad look, just not a common one. She looks back to Jill with a smile and then nods.

"She'd like that compliment. So do you know her? Jilly, I mean or just stopped in to have a drink and became a fan?"

And the next big question. He could almost laugh to how predictable this was becoming. Though he had nothing to hide, at least at the moment.

"Ah, we spoke over the network about jazz and classic and its uncommon fondness to the general public. She mentioned of her performance here and so I came." he casually explained with a chuckle in between. Now it was his turn.

"And yourself? Are you both from the same world?"

"It's that upscale, smooth kind of music that's good for sitting and listening to as opposed to dancing." She takes a sip of her drink and nods.

"Yeah. I've known Jill since we were five. She's kind of like a sister."

"Upscale, huh. It's the only kind I'm used to hearing, to be frank." Roaring twenties only offered so much.

"Oh? So you've known her for quite sometime then." swiftly avoiding to mention his assumption of her age, unless they were one of them. "A strong bond... How did you meet her?"

Lucy grins at him. "This sort of your generation musically?"

She nods at his question. "Yeah. Most of my life. We met in kindergarten the first day of school. Nobody was talking to her, so I did."

He smiled right back. "That's right."

"And why is that? There must have been a reason for the others not to. Why did you?" he curiously prodded.

Lucy just shrugs a little at the question. "She looked lonely standing all by herself."

"And you took pity?" he jabbed a comment with an amused smile, taking a sip of his drink.

"No! It wasn't pity." She scoffs at the idea and bristles at it almost in defense of Jill. "She looked sad and I don't like when people are sad."

Ooh, a feisty reaction. "Ah, you don't like seeing people sad. Then it was a benefit to you then for speaking to her." the devil spoke his twisted words.

Lucy thought about that for a moment before nodding. "Yeah. I guess so."

And she admitted to it or perhaps it was her attempt to drop the subject all together. So naturally he had to persistently follow it up.

"And why is it that you don't wish to see people sad?"

She's got no real preference as to whether the subject gets dropped or not. She's alright talking about it. She's just not entirely sure of the answers. There's a few seconds of silence then she shrugs.

"I don't know. I just...think people ought to be happy. Especially people like Jill who are really good people."

"Quite a judgment." he lightly laughed to her answer, finishing his drink. "So Jill is a good person through your eyes and good people should be happy." he playfully repeated, giving her a glance.

His grin grew as he spoke his next words in a deeper darker tone. "And what if she desired sadness?"

She ponders this a moment before she answers. It feels like he's trying to trap her into something and she's not sure what.

"Who actually wants to be sad? I mean I understand wanting to have a day where you watch sob movies and cry but that's not real sadness. Real sadness hurts too much."

"Fear." he began as he glanced towards Jill. "The only sense of familiarity one possibly has. Humans tend to fall back on security and comfort when pushed the limits."

He couldn't help but recall that look on Rosette Christopher's face. Such entertainment though not all humans were as strong as that one.

"Not all can handle having a taste of something only for it to be taken away in an instant." he snap his finger to that.

Lucy knows that in some ways, this is how Jill views the dark sort of moods she gets into. They're familiar and so she reverts to them. "Doesn't mean it always has to be that way. People's lives can get better and lighter and filled with not scary. That can become the norm."

"The question is will now, isn't it?" Aion rebutted as he re-focused on Lucy again.

"One can't save those that wish not to, after all." Was Jill that kind? His conversation with her was going to be more interesting than he had expected. He gave a light clap to the end of one performance while his eyes remained on Lucy.

"Not always. Sometimes a person can't no matter how much they want to."

As far as Lucy's concerned, she's been saving Jill from herself since they were five years old. It's not like she's going to stop now.

And he left it at that. Interesting humans, he had to admit. The overly gutsy and optimistic one and well, he would find out about the other soon now, won't he?
