A move that proved fatal for the man, as he found his fork falling from his hand and flinching in surprise as someone soft, cuddly, and squishy hugged him from behind with a very loud 'good morning', and already he could tell who it was. Thankfully he hadn't been drinking coffee at the time, as spilling it would have probably been an omen of the rest of the bad luck to follow that day. "Ah-hah, good morning to you too, Neri..." He trailed off with a twitching eyebrow and hesitant tone in his voice. He had engaged the demon in conversation, and now she was there to stay. For what it was worth, at least she smelled nice, and cleanliness was always welcome.<br/><br/><em>'Smooth move, Remington.'</em>he sighed mentally. Neri was a ball of fun... Chaos, mischief, and fun all rolled into one. And now rolled right into his vicinity.<br/><br/>"Well, you might be right, I just might be a little insane, especially considering where we're working. But I like to call it my penchant for intellectual conversation." Albion remarked, wondering what the illusion demon's angle was in all this. No one could predict what she would do next, and for all intents and purposes Albion believed that would be the end of his poor luck that morning. Until another voice popped up, one as recognizable as the last.<br/><br/><em>'Lily too? Did I slight some God when I woke up this morning?'</em>Albion closed his eyes and breathed softly for a moment, reaching over to take a quick sip of his coffee before setting the cup down.<br/><br/>"I see our residential human rulebreaker has also decided to join the cha- collection! Without a computer in sight, to boot? You could almost color me shocked." the male remarked, seeing Lily's choice of 'breakfast, if it could even be called that. Somehow this girl proved to be as weird as the demons he dealt with, which was charming in its own way as he'd never seem a human with poorer eating habits than a demon. But then with Neri and Lily in such close proximity, one could not deny there was a big distinction.<br/><br/>Looking back to Nerissa, Albion sighed and nodded. If this was a prelude to how his day was going to turn out, he was looking forward to the evening when he lit up a joint in his room and tended to the greenery. "I suppose I'm as ready as I'll ever be. I can't quite face the day with the same attitude as you two can, but I suppose I can be quite prepared for the worst of it... Hm? What's this now?"  He found himself asking, as Nerissa pushed a gift to him... Some sort of ring? For him?<br/><br/>He eyed the jewelry with scrutiny, knowing it would not be so simple. It never was when illusion demons were concerned, but unfortunately for him he also had Lily badgering him to keep him from second-guessing. One could almost assume the two troublemakers were in cahoots. "Since when am I Snowball? You make me sound like some rich lady's pet cat... Bah, fine, let's see what this is all about." He threw caution to the wind, holding the ring up and examining it against the light, before he sighed and slipped the ring on his left-hand ring finger. "I suppose it does look rather nice. How did you come across this, Neri?"
