Character(s): Marluxia and Larxene
Content: Marly and Larxy meet up again
Setting: Path between the library and the art museum
Time: Afternoon, week 22, tiiiiny bit backdated
Warnings: Evil?

Marluxia wasn't foolish enough to not be wary of this meeting. His talk with Larxene over the journals had been a fairly amiable one and there was no reason to think she carried any lingering animosity from before, but it was always difficult to tell whether or not a person without emotions was lying. He kept an even pace as he walked to the place where they would meet, keeping alert for any sign of the Savage Nymph.

Even if it turned out to be a trap, he wouldn't be taken by surprise, and this time he wouldn't be injured before then. Marluxia kept his thoughts hidden, however, a calm, if not peaceful, smile on his face.

Immediately, Marluxia became more cautious, tensing for a fraction of an instant and his expression immediately shifting into a frown. His suspicions, now, were completely confirmed. She did remember. Everything. And every moment he spent here was a moment spent in danger. He could leave now. A quick retreat was better than death, and there was no way to tell that just because Larxene hadn't attacked him now that she wouldn't later. And yet somehow Marluxia could tell that before him was an opportunity. One that he hadn't come across in a long, long time. And with the loss of so many promising pawns, the Graceful Assassin couldn't say he had much choice.

Even so, he was no fool. "Blame can be shifted around all you please. I've kept the real threat in mind and have been pulling strings to extinguish it. You wouldn't mind dropping a hint before we leave? I hope you can understand why I might be a little... hesitant."

"Oh, I'm not trying to shift blame, Marloo~. Just showing you who should actually be the more suspicious of the two of us," Larxene countered perkily, a nicely placed smile on her lips as she examined his reactions with a satisfied expression. To think, she was just there to perhaps use him in one of her little plans as a team after all he had done, and he's all cautious to see if she will do something bad. It was sort of laughable, considering the tension here originated from what he did. If she would've lured him into a trap, then her hands were clean. She wasn't going to be his second-fiddle again; she'll make sure of that. In fact, Marluxia did her a favor in the end. Made her realize that she had been too careless. She might not want a Heart anymore, yet the actions committed were over with, and it opened her eyes.

Which just made her work all the more effective ♥.

"As for the place, even you can choose. I say we go more deeper into the...empty side of Paixao. Less people to be around. We could find any spot then."
