Off to a Better Place
"It's nice to meet you as well, Blake." Dour replied to her as he slowly began to walk into the kitchen. "Why yes, I was actually preparing some for myself. Do give me a moment." As Blake looked for any photos, she would be hard pressed to find any. The entire room seemed a bit dejected, almost like it was devoid of all sense of life. It was neat and tidy, sure, but the walls were a faint shade of what appeared to have once been a vibrant, bright shade of red, and the carpet was ripped in some places and damp in others, not much unlike the elderly mayor himself. He returned with the tea on a tray moments later, with three (or four, depending on if Kassandra decided to join them) and laid the tray down on the coffee table in front of the couch.
"I'm afraid so, Blake." The old man said as he placed his cane down next to the couch and took a seat. "The missus died a while back, and all my kids have gone off to college. Which makes it all the better when I have company show up at my doorstep." He said, slowly picking up the tea and taking a sip out of it. After doing so, he flicked his wrist in a waving motion while looking to the other occupants in the room. "Oh, but enough about me. What brings you all here to Twilight Town? We're not exactly the most well known place, you know."

Micah's brows furrowed and his eyes filled a bit with worry when Ciri appeared to call him out on his lies. However, the seasoned snake didn't wear this look for long once his expression soon returned to that smug, punchable one he loved to wear. "What's there to tell?" Micah asked, sporting a toothy grin. "Black Lung came at me, accusin' me of sellin' our gang into the cops after we'd already lost half our members, and tried to make 'ole Dutch turn on me. At first, I thought it was just that tuberculosis he had that made him talk crazy, but turns out he might've just been crazy all along." Micah's smirk only grew as he brought his mug up to his lips again.

Leo felt his heart go out to Sage as he told his story. Since joining Libra, he had done nothing with his eyes but help others with them. Sure, he had plenty of other beings tried to take them from him for their own personal use, but he himself had never been the result of any mass destruction on any scale. So, all he could do was sit there and listen to Sage's story and nod slowly, unsure of how to respond at first. By the time he had finished speaking, though, the words finally formed well enough in Leo's mind.
"I know this might sound... erm... harsh, but... in all my time with these powers, and with Libra, one of the most important lessons I've learned is that your past doesn't define who you are. We shouldn't disregard it, but... we can't let it hold us down either." Leo shrugged and took a bite from his candy bar. "I can't say that I can be much help with your powers, or controlling whatever that thing is inside of you. In Black's case, Klaus, who's the leader of Libra, and I had to basically kill him from inside of Black, and then seal him away in case he ever reincarnates." He then fell silent, only to smile again when Sage brought up the idea of a ride. "Oh, sorry... I must not have heard you earlier with all the suiting up and prep work that was going on." Leo said, before letting out a nervous chuckle. "But I'd love a ride, whenever you have the time."
