"I know they're about to host a party for my birthday", mumbled Cain as he was beating another stage of the match three game on his phone as he was hanging upside down from the ceiling. "I want you to sabotage it." || @painforcain
"Your... Birthday?" Raven repeated, getting the eyes away from his Alice in Wonderland book.
His eyes darted around the room several times without seeing anything, a very puzzled expression on his face. Nonetheless, every thought disappeared as soon as he laid his eyes on Cain: stupid of him to still wonder about a being who was literally defying the basical rules of gravity right now.
"So, you're an Aquarius, I'm a Libra. There's affinity." he simply commented with a grin, deciding not to ask any further questions, which were more about the date Cain had picked than about the reasons why he wanted Raven to sabotage it.
"Let's see..." he mumbled. "Can you get your hundreds bodyguards out of our ways for a few hours? Just the time we need to board my jet... There are a few islands in the Pacific Oceans with literally one single cabin on them." He got out of Cain's bed to look at him. He tilted his head to reach the cealing: no lies, Raven would have loved to sit like that at least once, no matter how uncomfortable it looked.
"I know, I know... You are probably imagining indoor explosions, fire, chaos, Hell on Earth..." he continued. "But... If it could be something that won't get me another step closer to be mysteriously murdered for natural causes by your Inner Council..."
He took a break, imagining them on a tropical island. Silence, alcohol, weed and some bags of blood. Alone, truly alone for the first time ever.
"I'd love that."
