Farah straightened. "I don't like not knowing things," she whispered. Just saying the words already reminded her of Aster Dell.
Qûs'ÿltn looks at Farah more intently, eyes slightly narrowed. Who are you thinking about?
"I think you know," Farah murmured. "She's constantly in my head. She shaped me to be like her. I can't just get rid of that, it's not that easy."
Qûs'ÿltn closes his eyes and nods. Aster and Rosalind.
"Aster Dell, yes. And Rosalind… damn that bitch," Farah muttered the curses under her breath.
Qûs'ÿltn snickers. Well, she's dead, so there's that. So she's a dead bitch.
He pauses, then snorts. At least, I hope she's dead.
Farah jerked her head over to look at him with fierce wide eyes. "Don't you dare say that. We both saw her die. She's gone."
Qûs'ÿltn sighs. People like her might not stay dead. Death is merely a small hinderance when it comes to the Fae and other such magical beings.
Farah shook her head. "Please. I can't bear to think it. She is dead until she's not, if she's not. Alright?"
Qûs'ÿltn nods. I understand.
He stays silent for a moment, then chuckles. I'm getting bored with being dead. Let's go.
Farah shook her head and laughed quietly. "Oh, please. You're the most chaotic ghost."
Qûs'ÿltn grins. I'm serious.
He turns and waves at the others, who shake their heads and laugh, then walks right of the Underworld. So where are we going?
Farah watched him and her mouth fell open. "You could've left? this entire time? And you never came to find me and let me know you're okay? Gods…"
Qûs'ÿltn shrugs. I didn't think, or know, I could. But now's as good a time as any to see.
Farah rolled her eyes and followed him. "If something happens to you, it's your fault not mine," she muttered, leaving the way she'd entered.
Qûs'ÿltn laughs. Whatever.
He gets outside, and grins. Been a bit since I've seen the sun.
He looks slyly at Farah. Seems like I am allowed to leave after all. The Underworld apparantly knows not to stop me.
He stretches languidly, then laughs.
"No one knows how to stop you," Farah shot back, smirking at his behavior. "You've never tried to leave before? I find that surprising."
Qûs'ÿltn shrugs and smirks over at Farah. That is true. They haven't built a prison anywhere that can hold me. And they've tried.
He shrugs. Never had much thought to try. I didn't think you'd come visit me, anyways.
Farah rolled her eyes. "Please. Have you ever met me before?" she asked, loosening up a bit at their rekindled friendship.
Laughing, Qûs'ÿltn responds with Yes, I have. And I must say, sometimes you can be very difficult.
Farah scoffed. "I am not… difficult!" She frowned, pursing her lips playfully, and crossed her arms over her chest. "You take that back right now!"
You sure? Qûs'ÿltn snickers.
Because last time I checked, you were being very difficult in regards to my name.
"What in Solaria do you mean?" she demanded. "I am not difficult!"
