Go into the Center, my dear.
Nope.
Go in there, it's definitely warmer and cozier then here.
But I don't want to... :C


Seven minutes left until half an hour has passed since Shiva decided to wait in front of the Center, all alone. Nightshade in her arms was still cuddled up to her in trying to serve some silent comfort - it worked to some degree, since it prevented any feelings of being 'left alone'. Okay, fine, it was her who left after the battle, but she told Ven that she'll come back eventually, did she? She indeed did, and there she was unharmed and with a clearer mind that constantly annoyed with with what a bad idea it was to stay outside. But the fear of what she'd find when reuniting with the group was stronger...

Five minutes left, and the first stars of the night were visible on the sky. Shiva gazed up to them with awe... And when she brought her sight back to Earth, there was something at the end of the street... Even in the dark broken by a few street lamps she'd recognice that orange hair combined with green tweed among a mass of people! He looked like hero coming to save her, or like something the stars have brought to her.

Ven doesn't even need to hug her. Because she was faster, and almost immediately had her arms around his neck, Nightshade had to leap out of the way and to take an effort to keep herself on her Master's shoulder if she wouldn't want to get hugged as well.

His empathy would pick up that Shiva feels better and a little more stable alongside delight and thankfulness to see him again, but there is also a hint of fear of what has happened meanwhile - she saw Nathan going down from the corner of the eye, after all - and a subconscious satisfaction that she defeated an elusive Lampent, combined with a strong tiredness and a desire to get some rest. Practically speaking, most of her feelings from before she left were still present, but in a little less of a mess.
