Serenity yawns as well. "I love you too…"

Ali pulls her onto the couch, smiling up at her. “Thanks. For everything”

"You're welcome." Serenity laughs, letting herself be pulled onto the couch.

Ali grins, collapsing onto the cushions and closing her eyes. Please fall asleep, please fall asleep. she says silently to Serenity. She had work to do tonight

Serenity kisses Ali. "I'm tired. In the morning, I'm taking you on a run…" she yawns. She quickly falls asleep.

Ali smiles, then slowly gets off the couch, heading to her room. She lays out her findings from earlier on a desk, and begins sorting them.

(Gtg I’ll be back maybe tomorrow? XD)

(Ah damn, see ya then!)

Serenity stirs a little, then grabs a nearby pillow, snuggling wit it.

(PLOT TWIST I HATH RETURNED)

Ali closes the door, sighing as she gathers her materials. She carefully arranged the leaves into a circle, placing the berries in the center, and sprinkling a bit of a questionable powder over all of it. Afterwards, she begins to chant something almost silently, and everything within the circle starts to wither, dying and turning gray. She sighs once it’s over, then tugs at her hair. hopefully that gets me through a few more days

(OH DAMN! PLOT TWIST FROM HELL!)

Serenity wakes as she feels… something. She can't quite put her finger on what exactly it was, but something is in the air. "Ali? You okay?"

(YUH YUH)

Ali quickly brushes the lifeless organisms off her desk, replacing them with textbooks. “Yep! I just remembered I have a test and I forgot to study! I’m fine!”

Serenity looks concerned. "There's something not right with the air right now. It's- dull. Cold. Why is the door closed?" she asks, getting up and walking over to the closed door.

Ali laughs, going to open the door. She leans against the doorframe, al signs of concerned washed away. “Cold? I thought a second ago it was too hot for you!”

Serenity looks troubled still. "No, an unnatural cold. Or more rather, the cold of death."

Ali raises an eyebrow. “Are… you okay?”

Serenity looks into the room, silently extending her senses into the room and hitting a wall of necromancy. Her expression turns blank. "Is there anything you'd like to tell me, Aleecia? For instance, why there are ashes and dust all over the floor?"

Ali turns slightly, then laughs. “What, that? Just some dirt from outside?” She holds a hand to Serenity’s forehead. “Are you really okay? What is going on?”

Serenity looks Ali directly in the eyes. "You could have told me you were dying."

Ali shakes her head, very confused now. “Okay okay. You really need sleep… god, what was in that soup?” She starts to lead Serenity into the living room

Srenity snarls and snaps. A ripple of passes through reality, and a glowing black aura surrounds Ali, while a bright whiteish-grey one surrounds her. "I need you to explain."

Ali screams, heading for the door. “WHAT THE FUCK??”

Serenity grabs Ali. "I- I'm sorry. You could have told me you were close to death, though."

Ali fumbles with the doorknob. “I’m not close to death?? What the fuck are you talking about??!!”

"Your aura. Either you are close to death, or you are messing around with shit you shouldn't be." Serenity says grimly, an unseen force holding the door shut. "Explain. Now."

Ali pants, trying at the door. “What… are you?”

"Human." Serenity says. She watches Ali closely.
