Re: Riverside

Charity Dinner Atya smiles nervously at Braon's warning. "Hey, it's good to know you have security already. Makes my job easier," she jokes. Well, a half joke at least. It is a relief that Braon's family is so well protected. She gives the fiendling a wave as she departs. It's funny- rare...

Aiko's Bad Day Library Darko's eyes widen as Koko talks. He had been so distracted by the crowd before that he hadn't been able to pay much attention to what she was going through, but clearly the idea of fusing is incredibly distressing to her.
