    Missy folds up the note and puts it in her pocket. "I guess Magtok is ready for us to be friends again. That's good." Her smile is a little forced, because of what he said about being in a dark place. "Heehee.. Your cat has just gotten a manicure."

    "That is great. Sometimes I wonder what Magtok is really like in person."
    Sophie then looks down at Nicholas and chuckles.
    "So he has. I don't think he has any idea what's going on." The cat waves his now rainbow-colored paw in the air and meows. "Poor thing. I'm really glad I got him, though."

    "He's pretty flamboyant. But other than that, and the clone thing, and the spy satellite, and all the MagBranding, he's not much different than anyone else," Missy says.

    "I think it's like that with all celebrities," Sophie says. "Mind you, I've never met any so it's just amateur psychology on my part," she adds half-jokingly.

    Sophie smiles a little.
    "I've been worse, I guess. I went through a bout of depression, but a friend helped me get past that." She pauses. "Now that you ask though... I'm actually considering adopting a child myself."

    "Oh! That's wonderful! Is there a specific child you want to adopt? Or do you just mean you're considering the possibility?"
    Missy asks. Jefferies just sort of fell into Jyarl and Missy's life, without any warning, but Sophie might be a little more organized about things.

    Dana's Place

    A hooded figure enters the store. The figure walks over to the counter and points at the strawberry ice cream. It doesn't speak. More observant people will notice the figure is carrying a sword under its cloak and that it looks slightly feminine.

    The proprietor of the ice cream parlor heads over to help the hooded figure. She's a young woman with dark hair, fair skin, and a friendly disposition by the look of her. She's wearing a light blue dress with an apron over it.

    "Hello, you want strawberry ice cream then?" She asks with a smile for the hooded woman. "Do you want a small or large?" Dana holds up one of each cone so she can point.

    The hooded figure points at the large cone. She then heads over to the seat at the end of the counter, where she can sit in the shadows. (Yes, she is that type) If she needs to pay, she'll pull out a small coin purse and hand over 1 sp.

    She will indeed need to pay, but Dana seems satisfied with the silver coin. Money changing in the Nexus is always such a bother, but what can you do. She'll be handed her ice cream and set on her way.

    Unfortunately, the entire parlor is brightly lit, so dark corners are hard to come by.

    Into the ice cream parlor walks a young man, in a suit, gloves and bowler hat, all the color of freshly fallen snow. Pale blue eyes glint excitedly under his dark hair as he glances across the variety of ice cream flavors. He adjusts the haversack on his shoulder as he mentally attempts to decide his choice.

    With a friendly smile to Dana, he finally speaks up. "Hello there! I would like a large mint chocolate chip, please." Reaching inside his coat, he pulls out a shiny silver coin and slides it over the counter. "Will this do?"

    ((Sorry about the delay. Busy evening.))

    Dana quickly moves over to take his order. "That'll do just fine. One large mint chocolate chip coming right up." She gave him a bright smile and set about preparing his cone. A moment later and she offers it to him. "Here you are."

    For its fifth anniversary, Thanksmas has sold out and gone commercial, setting up in the promenade of Mallside. A little Santa's Village has been set up around the fountain. There's a low fence separating the Village from the mall corridors - though once you step across the fenceline, you can see that the space is bigger on the inside.

    So big, in fact, that it gets its own thread. So pop over there if you want to sit on Santa's knee!

    The white-suited young man chirps a cheerful "thank you!" before glancing around the parlor for a place to sit. His eye is caught by the hooded figure at the end of the counter. With a moment's hesitation, he walks over, and sits down beside her.

    "Hello there," he smiles as he savors the freshly-made ice cream cone. "My name's Sonozaki Yuki. What's yours?"

    She looks up for a second then back to her ice cream. In a barely audible voice, she responds, "Emi."

    "Emi..." Rolling the name around, Yuki mutters, "Depending on the kanji used... your name roughly translates to 'reflection of beauty', or something similiar. It's a nice name..."

    He gives her another quizzical look, then asks, "If you don't mind my asking, why do you keep your hood up, even inside?"

    "...I see." Yuki chuckles, taking another lick of his ice cream. Turning in his chair, he gives Emi a curious glance, trying to see under the darkness of the cloth. "So is the hood really necessary for your skills to work?"

    Yuki blinks and raises an eyebrow in amusement. "Oh. Well, that makes... marginally more sense. So you just sit in shadowy corners waiting for someone to notice you and talk to you? Rather similar to a spider, laying in wait for its prey, don't you think...?"

    "Hmm... Never thought of it that way." She seems amused by this new analogy for her life. "Back home, or at least back where I lived, I was always trying to find adventurers to help me. You see, I-I shouldn't exist." If Yuki's any good at Sense Motive, he'll notice the Emi sounds a bit depressed at the thought of a home.

    "Shouldn't exist?" asks Yuki with a quirked eyebrow. He opens his mouth to speak, but then closes it. Taking a deep breath, he says, in a much calmer voice. "Why? Why shouldn't you exist?"

    "In short? Daddy issues." She stares off into the distance for a bit, deep in thought and recollection. "Have you heard of Oedipus? I was reading the play and his story sounds similar to mine." She starts thinking again, seemingly deciding whether or not to add to her explanation. She decides not to with a grin
