The pun was enough to both have Atieno narrowing their eyes at Neff but also letting out an amused huff. It’s so damn obvious that it comes back around to be kind of funny.
“Yeah, yeah. I would know.. huh.“
Perhaps they should have seen that coming, given Neff’s history with puns every now and then.
Still, they did seriously listen to her comment about adjusting to this life she had going on now. Such changes were never particularly easy so they couldn’t help but hear her out.
“I get how it would be hard to adjust. You’d think 2 years is plenty of time but.. as you said it’s also very much not. So there’s still so much for you to take in, learn about. And having a deity that’s not helpful in the least only makes things more difficult.“
“I mean yeah it makes sense that it would still be exhausting. You can get a better understanding of why she is the way she is while still being kind of over it. Especially since you’ve had to figure out so much about yourself in the meantime.“
As much as Atieno could kind of get allowing people to discover and whatnot, if someone was directly associated with them - that seemed to suggest some more help or at least space for asking questions is necessary.
@cosmicstardreamer Night Out~
It was something simple planned for the two to spend a night out. For him and Neff to go out and just hang out together at a nice restaurant and dress up in formal attire. He made the reservations and time, making sure it was fine by her and what days was good for her. Preparing before heading out to pick her up, using one of the many cars available to him and anyone else really in this organization. Nice night out, a taxi wasn’t fitting for this. Dressed in the usual black dress shoes and pants, with a black vest and purple button up. Nothing too new but his hair had a different look. Tied back in a high ponytail, his bangs slicked back to stay out of his eyes said for a few strands. It was rare he dressed up for something he genuinely wanted to do and he was going to go all out here.
A black Mercedes pulling up to where she lived before giving Neff a text that he arrived. Not to rush and that they still had time. Leaning back into the seat while he waited, staring up at the night sky, same constellations, same patterns though it would move with the earth’s rotation, the stars were always there. Always brought him some comfort. Less lonely, felt less alone and unlike people, they never left. Humming to himself as he waited and checked his phone if she replied. Excited for the night, to go out with a friend rather than a client or someone paying for his company. It was different sure, but welcome and new.

// As Minato hesitates in front of the café, the people who pass by cast him an irritated look as they maneuver past him. Of all places, he didn’t think a shrink would exist with no advertisement to speak of and he was far from a person who’d trust the word of mouth but at this point he was desperate.
He entered the store, spotting the person in question seated near the back of the café. He swallowed and approached, putting his school bag down as he sat. Across from him babbled a blonde covered in piercings and his neck weighed down with spiritual amulets that had it’s gold paint chipped off.
“ I heard you can enter dreams? ” Minato enquired, sweat covering his brow. He rubbed his eye, decorated with dark circles.
The man gave him assurance, producing a cheap glass ball from his duffle but not before presenting him with a piece of paper. Monthly payment. No guarantee.
He picked up the pen. If it could make it go away then money is not an issue...

Andrew couldn’t help but, be in awe at her work. He was still convinced she was going to become famous one day. How could he not with how skilled she was?
“That’s so cool! I don’t really remember my dreams much, but… when I dream, there's no color.” He is silent for a moment as it’s a rather sudden realization. Did that make him weird? He’ll have to think more on this later. “Either way, this looks really pretty! Are you going to sell it when you're done?”
The weather was cooler and dreary today - and while most people would consider that 'bad weather' to her it was comforting and perfect. She'd gotten her favorite mug with a warm drink, a sweet snack, and got her laptop set up in a way she could comfortably watch some videos.
She was mid sip when she notices the door opening, holding that position as she watches him emerge and close it behind him. She stares at him for a good few seconds before putting the mug down, pausing said video, and removing one of the pads of her headset from her ears.
"So how many times now does that make you coming out of the closet?"
❝ nine or ten times at th’ least here. ❞ his reply was effortless, though he was partly surprised that he was in neffs house. his key usually spat him out at locations he felt safe at a distance. he was half expecting shibuya but this was america. he hadn’t connected the fact that he had wanted to see neff as to why he was here, yet. the fact he didn’t feel sick immediately and that he wasn’t having any strong adverse effects to using his magic for long distances was a tribute to the growth of his power (especially of late).
once he was sure the lock did it’s job; he carefully pressed away from the door and backed up to watch it intently. there was a loud crashing sound that reverberated through the walls; like something had run against it and stammed into the door which made the witch run into neffs kitchen to find the salt in the cabinet. sliding back into the hall, he slid to his knee and laid a thick line of salt down along the door to keep the entity that was following him, out.
❝ shit- shit- shit- shIT- SHIT-- ❞
