When: BELATED EVENT POST
Where: Genessia/Everglade
Warning: None yet.

Belle wasn’t a fighter but she also wasn’t the sort of person who could sit and do nothing while people got hurt. She’d been heading to work when she saw the spirits break and swarm through the cities. She had nothing she could use to fight except a nearby fallen tree branch. She dove for it when the spirits approached, swinging it to keep the dark figures away from.

It did nothing to them but they paused and she used that time to run.

Breath exhaled I heavy puffs as she made her way down the streets. She fumbled with her phone seeing the message that indicated where the safe houses were. She didn’t want to go there, she wanted to help, but all thoughts slipped from her mind as one of the shadows loomed above her. Belle stumbled backwards, falling hard on the ground beneath her with a solid thud.

She was too breathless to scream.

He pinches the bridge of his nose before chuckling and nodding gently. "Yes, let's, but I can find my own drink, thank you." Not that he's particular when he really needs a drink.

Belle's lips twist into a frown. She had no intention of leaving his side, even if he did find her company tedious.

"Then let's go." She directed then towards the safe house and continued to walk forward.

To be fair, Dorian often felt company tedious when it was dead-set on pointing out his perceived weaknesses. That, and he tended to become extra pissy whenever he was tired, which was more often than not, these days.

"Yes, let's."
