Thomas raised an eyebrow at Eva's comment. She'd always seemed to be uncomfortable whenever the two of them spent time at Thomas' home, though he was never sure exactly why. Stepping in front of her, Thomas took her hands in his own. "Don't worry," He said, looking in her eyes. "you won't ruin...

Thomas smiled at her response. "Well, I think," He said, giving her hand a quick squeeze "that you're perfect." And with that, he stood up, placing his plate on the bedside table. "We'd better get ready to go, it's almost noon and your parents are probably worried sick." It wasn't the first time...

Thomas nodded, setting the plates evenly on the bed. "I'm not sure, but it's not often anyone is called up to the palace, so I'm feeling paranoid." He reached down under the bed and pulled out his medical kit. Opening it, he rummaged through before taking a large cotton ball, several bandages...

It was nearly eleven before Thomas awoke the next morning, and was pleasantly surprised to find the events of the night before had not been a dream. His mind quickly traveled to the prospect of a confrontation with his parents however, and he sighed. It was odd they hadn't burst into the room...

Thomas held his breath as Eva slid closer to him, and let out a silent sigh as she laid her head on his chest. His heart had to be working in overdrive. He gave a silent chuckle at her question. "Yeah," He whispered. "The same thing they've been saying for at least two years now." He looked at...

Thomas looked over at Eva and studied her for a moment. The moonlight cast a pale glow on the side of her face, and Thomas couldn't help his heart skipping a beat at the sight. "Yeah, I'm okay." He said, his voice barely a whisper. He wasn't sure how to broach the subject, or if he even should...

Thomas exited the washroom a few minutes later, fully clothed with new bandages around his hands. Slipping down the stairs, he quietly entered the kitchen and lifted the wine storage up out of the floor. He smiled as he thought about how pissed his parents would probably be in the morning. I...

Thomas lifted his brows at the question. "I mean.." He sighed and sat down on the floor, beginning to put away the medical kit. "I guess it might be. It's not often nobles 'associate' with anyone lower class." He slid the kit back into its spot under the bed and leaned back onto his hands...

A smile tugged at Thomas' lips at Eva's words. "Maybe," he said softly, "but I should've at least done something. Letting you take him on by yourself was a coward's choice." With some careful maneuvering Thomas finally arrived at his home. Without many options he went for the easiest choice and...

Thomas looked at Eva and nodded. He could already tell she wouldn't make it if she tried to walk. Standing up, Thomas moved to pick up her satchel, when he noticed something. A small tattoo was printed on the dead man's skin, a circle with three vertical lines through it. Thomas determined to...

Thomas furrowed his brows with concern as Eva slowly sat back down. She was wincing and obviously in pain. Moving in front of her, he carefully looked her over. His eyes widened as he came across a slowly growing blood stain soaking through her shirt. Looking her in the eyes he nodded. "I need...

It was several minutes before Thomas opened his eyes again, he sighed with relief when he saw Eva's face looking down at him. Noticing the tears running down her face, he quickly sat up and moved to her side, wrapping his arms around her. "I'm sorry." He said softly. Thomas bit his lip, sorry...

As soon as the book was open Thomas felt it's effects, there was no creeping feeling as there had been when he had first opened it. He immediately burst into hysterics, laughing loudly and openly as if he'd just heard the best joke of his life. "What a riot!" Whatever the effect the book had...

Thomas took a few steps back as Eva pulled him. "What are you-" he glanced down as Eva reached into her satchel. A weapon, it must be, but what could she expect to do to the man? He looked over at the man, standing over Lyada who had been living and breathing only moments earlier. His stomach...

Thomas took a few steps back, startled and horrified at the body now lying face down in the street in front of them. It took a moment before his senses returned, and he quickly looked in the direction Eva was gazing. Thomas' eyes widened as he spotted the perpetrator. A lone figure stood atop a...

Thomas noticed the stares as well, evidently they didn't care about looking impolite. "They must not be used to new company. We should probably choose who we talk to carefully." He said under his breath. His eyes scanned the various people around them, dressed in rags and ill-fitting clothes, he...

Thomas was caught by surprise as Eva wrapped him in her arms and squeezed him tight. He was glad he'd thought to put the cloth back over his face, otherwise she couldn't have missed the bright red color that tinged it. "You miss me?" He chuckled as she rolled her eyes and handed him her cloak...

After a solid few minutes, Thomas felt he was finally far enough away from the upper district to breathe easy. There would be guards patrolling naturally, but he knew his parents were far away. Deciding now was the time, he slipped the purple cloth he had taken from his room around his face...

- Time skip: that afternoon - Thomas stood up at last, and walked around the room. His knees were aching after hours sitting and reading, but now he needed a way out. It was almost time for him to meet Eva, and he'd end up late if he didn't think something up pretty quickly. Opening up the...

A few short hours later, Thomas was awoken by his mother in his bedroom, loudly opening the curtains of his window and flooding the room with light. He groaned and smashed one of his pillows over his face. "Decide to sleep in late have you?" Her voice was sweet, normally, though this morning she...
