Edwyrd watched as Kuriva left, wondering if perhaps he should have been stronger to try and stop her. She didn't answer him and his claim, though whether she believed it or not was another story entirely.

Hopefully that would give her pause before she did anything that brought the authorities down on him. Then again she was spiteful and psychotic, so maybe he should prepare for the worst anyway.<br/><br/>Well, now that that business was over it was time to get back to his ungrateful kitty. It wasn't like he had anything better going on right now. "<strong>Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about you</strong>," he told Lavi as he returned to the dungeon part of her basement lair. He'd been interrupted before but this time nothing was going to stop him and what he wanted to do.

He kept it there for a few seconds to make sure it was evenly applied before he removed it, and took a moment to admire his handiwork. Not bad, not bad at all
