Cabal really couldn't help but hear Einar, especially when he was right in front of him. This time, he simply grit his teeth and resisted the urge to roll his eyes to keep an impassive facade. Better this than having another pointless row with him.

Besides, he had so far much better company to keep. He gave Mira an affirmative nod, and replied, [color=a0410d]"I don't mind,"[/color] he said in a manner completely betraying any romantic notions, [color=a0410d]"on that note, lunch would be a good time to talk. If it's convenient, we could have it together."[/color]

Cabal being who he was, of course, had no ulterior motives, even if his words were more than "inviting" in the traditional sense.

[i][color=a0410d]"Hmm, what to do now?""[/color][/i] he wondered, before seeing a jet of water splash Katherin. Trained reactions taking over, Cabal shot to his feet and was upon Suba in a moment.

The young man lifted the sleeping girl by a single arm, until her face met his.

[color=a0410d]"You have ten seconds to explain,"[/color] he said, face impassive, but promising dark things if she didn't answer.[hr]

Suba was having the most wonderful dream. She was back home, at the Coral Palace, surrounded by her handmaidens and playmates, and they were playing a game of finding the Blue Fish. She was winning, of course. Since she didn't really win all that much in reality, she could at least win in her dreams!

Then suddenly she was quite literally yanked out of her slumber. She felt a pressure on her arm, before being jerked from her sleep, due to the suddenness of her awakening, it took her awhile to reorient herself to reality. When she did, however, she sorely wished she didn't.

She found herself face to face with the one person she was trying desperately to avoid. Flashes of memory came to her, reminding her of the results of Aswang assassinations, and in her mind, there was only one thing to do!

Scream, [i]loudly[/i]. Scream so loud that it practically shattered Cabals eardrums. And the eardrums of everyone else in the room. And the windows. And her table. A supersonic scream in closed quarters had that effect.

But really, mostly Cabal!

Who dropped her, then dropped to the floor, ears ringing and head swirling.
