(Ermagerd the glitching. Did I accidentally delete someone's post? I was trying to delete my own I accidentally posted, but I think I deleted someone else's. I feel horrible if I did ;_

Absol felt relieved he acted like nothing had happened. He kept his composure a lot better compared to her, she noted as she entered his home. She slipped off her shoes and put down her bags near the front door and went and sat down on the nearest couch. How strange that it came to this, out of all things. She had originally betted that Gengar was going to invite her over to lunch, but her lack of replies probably stopped him from doing so.Exanis said:ColbyColby simply acted as if he didn't hear anything when Absol's stomached growled and nodded once. "Very well then, I think I see our apartment complex. Coming up. Let's be on our way." With that said, he turned and continued forward, his mind now racing through possible meals that would be both nutritious and delicious. 'Hmm... What about... Yes, yes, that could work... A side of... Yes that would work as well... Do I have...? Yes, I believe I do...' And so on, and so forth. Soon enough, he arrived at the apartment complex, and with a backwards glance to ensure that Absol hadn't disappeared, he climbed the stairs to his apartment. Pulling the keys out of his pocket, he unlocked the door and stepped inside, leaving it open for Absol to follow.
The inside of the apartment was fairly homey for someone of Colby's attitude, with multiple nice soft couches, all the regular entertainment appliances, and various decorations. Granted, everything there was suited more for Dark types, but he doubted Absol wouldn't enjoy decor. Shrugging off his scarf and long sleeve shirt, leaving him only in a black tank top, and tossing them onto a coat rack, he called over his shoulder as he made his way into the kitchen. "Feel free to make yourself at home. Drinks are in the fridge, and I'm sure I have some snacks in the top left cabinet if you want something to tide you over till the food is done." Rummaging around in one of the bottom cabinets, and with a sigh he pulled out a black apron with the words "Sweet Kiss the Chef" on it. Holding it up and glaring at it, he glanced back into the bottom cabinet as if to check if there really was no other apron, then groaned silently and put it on. Grumbling to himself, he began to go about the kitchen gathering ingredients. Once he had everything gathered, he glanced at Absol once again as he began cooking. "Why don't you tell me what's bothering you today while I make lunch?"

Absol gave him a polite smile. "I see. The name's Absol, it's nice to meet you as well. But besides that. I'm surprised you picked up something was wrong. I tend to be able to keep things hidden, but guessing from what I've been told, you're pretty observant. I don't think I need to explain in much detail, but my species is well-known for being able to sense when disaster will strike. The most common events being natural disasters. Usually, it's just... A weird tingling I feel whenever I sense something's stirring but lately, I've been having nightmares. They're all consistent with one another. My memories are a bit fuzzy when I wake up, but the one thing I remember from these nightmares is the feeling of being betrayed." Absol was intently staring at the wall as she momentarily paused, taking in a deep breath before speaking again. "And the other thing is a dark figure. Their gaze always filled me with a sense of dread." She shook her head, frowning. "They all seem so surreal. I was afraid they're just results of stress, but even when I got a few days off from work it doesn't seem to help. Nothing much is going on in my life that would make me get so many nightmares, so I've been worried that they're actually trying to tell me something."Exanis said:ColbyStopping mid chop, Colby turned to Absol and gave a small bow. "Colby. Colby the Umbreon. Pleasure to meet your acquaintance." Straightening up he got back to cooking, he gave one glance back to Absol and shook his head dismissively. "And don't thank me. I was hungry, and I had a vague feeling that you were on your way to eat. You saw me in a moment of weakness while at a low point. I'd rather not have a worse impression on people than what I purposely enforce." He shrugs to himself and continues making the meal. "If anything I should thank you for adding variety to my fairly monotonous life." He stops and blinks, and gives Absol once more glance. "Anyway, that aside, do share what's been bothering you."
