at one time, akane was in such a beautiful state of peace that she didn’t think about a certain pierced woman . during this time, she got her shit together, sold the things the other bought ( even the fucking shamwows . ), & changed her credit card pin . she was hella ready to move on &, being the owner of her own hotel, any thoughts on dating or her were moved to the back of her mind . that is until she opened her door on this sunny saturday morning .
in many families, this day was meant to be holy . a day of rest, a day to celebrate the lord, but the thoughts that came to the demoness’s mind were hellish in origin . they ranged from down - right awful to very fucking illegal, even in hell . the fights, the back & forth, the cheating, all the shit they’ve been through, ran through her mind like a roadrunner & she probably aged twenty years visibly . she grew pale, & she had to lean ‘gainst her doorframe in order to keep from falling .
akane just looked downright tired, & all of this happened in a matter of two minutes . she could say, as she looked down ( finally . ) at regina, that the other was a missed figure in her life … if she wanted to tell a lie . as a matter of fact, she was close to closing her door so hard that the wind from the force of her slam would knock regina back down the stairs, but reg most likely thought of that since she stopped the door from potentially closing with a boot . akane sighs, opens the door a little wider to allow herself to get through & situate herself on her porch, & then brushes her hair back behind her ears .
❝ what do you want ? ❜ the words are sharp, to the point, & it’s not all that surprising that those were the first things to come from her mouth . then again, if she didn’t want to keep her calm, they would’ve been filled with something vile .
REGINA LOOKS WORSE FOR THE WEAR ––– more so than usual. While still towering over most others, their bones are practically poking through their ghost flesh ( though it’s difficult to tell under all their layers ). Their eyes so bruised that it appears as if they had gotten into a fight with a certain she-wolf. And the hybrid core that is held prisoner behind their ribs is barely at a pulse; the intoxicants screamed louder than Regina’s own essence. However, despite the unwellness in their appearance, they somehow seemed okay.
As Akane steps outside of her home and onto the porch, Regina is finally able to take in the other. They take careful note of her mannerisms, searching for lingering signs of affection. Anything they could use to weasel their way back into Akane’s bank account. These interactions, whatever relationship they had, had always been about money for the addict.
❝ You didn’t fuckin’ miss me at all? ❜ Their words come out playful; each syllable passing over their pierced lip with an uncomfortable amount of ease. As if they had somehow forgotten the last time they spoke was three years ago; as if they had forgotten the grandiose gesture they had made promising their star to the demon before running out with the other’s money. How could Akane have known their words were just another ruse for cash? How could she have known that it wasn’t about amorous affection for Regina? The ancient star was a convincing liar and played the part of lover too well. While there may have been things they liked about the demon, nothing had been enough to make them stay. Even Akane’s money could not keep them around in the end. It made packing their bags and leaving without a goodbye or explanation easy. They felt no remorse about what had happened. It was possible Reggie had even forgotten that they ended on those terms.
Even so, some part of them knew that coming to Akane’s door was a dangerous gamble; they should know better than to poke an angry demon. ❝ It’s been a while, babe. ❜ The affectionate title is intentionally ironic as if Reggie were trying to push Akane’s boundaries. ❝ Anyway, I need a fuckin’ place to stay the night . . . Figured since ‘The E’ is popping up faster than fuckin’ Starbucks I’d pay you a visit. ❜ It’s highly likely they were on the outs with the wolf they’d been frequenting.
