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.

"Oh, well just in case there's any question I'm more normal and ordinary than normal and ordinary." She knew that she was boring and was more than willing to admit to it. Of course, her boring status had magnified tenfold here with all the extraordinary people and creatures from all over the place. She wasn't even a blip on the radar of gifted or special.

"The only thing I really excel at is the piano." And of course then she realizes she's under-selling herself the way Lucy always said she did. So she adds something else. "And... watching... football. I'm good at that too. Oh and running. I run pretty well, in a normal running kind of way." Cause some people here had super speed.

Her sudden burst of information threw him off as if he were an interviewer or something. Well, he sort of was but he simply wasn't expecting this. "Any question, hm." he softly repeated amused and pondered a bit. A circle of his glass and a sip, he finally spoke.

"Then how about, what is it you desire?"

Her eyes almost seemed too big for her slender face as she looked wide-eyed at him in response to the question. She was trying to figure out what he meant by it and how to answer it. What did she desire? What did she desire? She stalls by sipping at her own drink again and stirring it up with the celery stick garnish that had come with it. How did anyone answer that question? Jill did have a tendency to over-think things. Her mind always slipped to the deep dark recesses if given enough time. And she tended to go there much quicker than most.

"Uhm..." She tilts her head and pushes the messy waves of her hair back behind her ears. Instead of continue to slip into those shadowy thoughts, she decided to ask him to clarify. "What do you mean?"

What did he mean? That too counted as another he took as unexpected. He didn't think it was a hard question. Even a human knows of their desire whether it be something as simple as craving a particular food or something of his scale. He slightly straightened up and faced her more, perhaps even leaning in a little closer.

"Is there nothing you desire?" he gave it another shot with a bit of a forced smile. "I was under the impression that a girl of your age has plenty." He attempted to take control of her attention by staring into her eyes. She was too good at avoidance.

"Nothing that you would do anything in the world for?" the devil seductively spoke his words.

Jill was very different from most girls her age. She had learned at a very young age not to want anything because she never got anything she wanted. Quite the opposite. And on top of that, Jill was one to avoid most things and over think most of them as well to the point of allowing things to pass her by.

The way he was looking at her now, it was a little mesmerizing and when she looked up, her eyes locked with his. Eye contact wasn't something she often made and held onto. But she did with him for now.

"Maybe for Lucy to be happy. She deserves happiness." Jill answers him. "She's my best friend, like a sister. I don't really deserve her but she's always been there, you know?"

Ah, that woman from before. Aion returned a somber expression to that. Selfless. What was she trying to prove by stating something as that? But nonetheless, he picked up on a weakness she has worth noting just in case.

"And for yourself?" he edged her on, attempting to juggle her mind.

"For me?" Jill furrows her brow, draws a deep breath and tries to think of something she might want or desire for herself. This shouldn't be so hard. But it was.

"Mmm... maybe to be more self-confident, like Lucy. She's... I mean she just puts herself out there without even thinking twice." Jill shrugs. "Me? I second guess everything I do. I'm always looking for an angle with other people. Like why they do things, or..." Her eyes narrow a bit, a corner of her lips tugging upward. "Like why you're even talking to me."

He watched her ponder more when she finally answered and that answer was self-confidence? Weak and pathetic human. The type on the lower end of the food chain as well. At least the overly robust ones had drive. This one...

He couldn't help but laugh a little louder at that point. "Why am I even talking to you, huh, ha ha ha." he playfully repeated. He partially wondered why as well though even if it didn't mean much, he had a motive nonetheless. "To find a good resource, of course. Make connections, find out who they are, what they do. Where they stand." he darkly spoke his last sentence.

"Often times people are driven on a motive and persevere towards it. Whether it be something they do or say." His lips curled to the last. "Shall I guess why you're speaking to me?"

"A good resource?" Jill smirks and shakes her head, finally pulling her gaze away from his and sipping at her drink again. The only drive she had in regard to herself was music and survival. Humans could be monsters too and Jill had lived with monsters for most of her life.

"My motive? I guess it's to get lost. It's safer when you're lost... in music or in a movie or in a book. Things are better there." Which probably made no sense to anyone but herself. But Jill had always been a little different than most humans. It was why she didn't have many friends. She was the weird, broody, dark, emo chick. "I think you're interesting. But why do you think I'm speaking with you?"

An escapist, of course. Though those were always the easiest ones to maneuver. Her friend was in the right to be protective. This one would be swallowed in an instant here.

"To push those barriers and live for once." he began with amusement heard in his voice. "Seeking a strength which will allow you to break free of those thoughts. A different sort of escape, one could put it. Humans have always innately desired power, asking themselves what if more than doing it. A weakness they have that requires assistance to overcome, don't you agree?"

His own obvious amusement with his answer makes her almost smile, but then his words sink in and she knows he's right in many aspects. She lifts one slender shoulder, a half shrug as she considers his question. "I've never really desired power, just... safety, I guess. I think some people just try to survive, power be damned. But I do admit to imagining things more than doing them... which is sad, I know."
