Artus's right arm and hand were curled around her shoulder, while she lay on her right side snuggled up to Artus, resting her head upon his chest, his left arm embraced the rest of her. His head was turned toward her head, as they slept soundly. Thoughts and feelings streamed between them on the unconscious plane.
Persephone floated in dreams while listening to the heart beat of Artus. The scent of his after-shave cologne though slightly faded now, and mixed with his own manly scent, filled her senses and made her more relaxed then she had been in a long time. The scent seemed almost therapeutic to her, detecting Caprican spruce, birch and pine earlier that evening....it now made her dream of forest images, tall trees that reached all the way to the sky and of wild waterfalls and emerald rivers and lakes, and snow capped mountains, like those she remembered on her home colony of Piscon, She felt enveloped in the nature that she held fondly in her memories, and in the warm feelings that imbued her, for the man who held her in his arms and he in hers.
Artus took in a deep sigh and exhaled contentedly, as he too floated in dreams of his own. He too savoured the lingering finale notes of Persphone's own fragron of the rare nocturnal Shafali flower from the colony of Leo, which now gave way to it's sensual fruit tones and white flowers of the blend. He had fallen asleep while listening to sound of Persephone's own heart and thinking he was lying in a field of exotic blossoms. As if the Gods had offered him their most beloved goddess to him in the form of this beautiful creature in his arms.
All of a sudden, a ringing alarm went off in Persephone's ear. The alarm jolted her out her restful sleep, as it did to Artus. They both jerked, she snapped her head up suddenly, her left hand accidently followed in movement, and groggy from sleep, temporarily forgetting where she was and with whom. Her hand came up and hit Artus in the eye.
"Ow!...ahhhh..awww...felgercarb!", he groaned. Simultaneously and still half asleep himself, Artus' right hand went to reach for his chronometer from where the alarm beeped to switch it off, but misjudging in the darkness, he also by accident, smacked Persephone in the forehead.
"Oww! Awhhhh...ooohhh...what in hades did you do that for?", she now groaned.
Artus winced in the dim room, as he turned over to face Persephone, and removed his arm from under her. She held her head, blinking as if to relieve the sharp sensation she now felt, as he too put a hand up to his eye, nursing the mild sting she unconsciously inflicted upon him.
"I'm sorry Pers...but your head got in the way...did my alarm wake you, baby?", he now had both hands free to deactivate his chrono's little klaxon. She removed her hand from her forehead, and just looked at him, as he peered at her lying there. "And your eye got in my way...sorry...How long have we been asleep for?" she queried, as she moved his hand away from his eye, to touch him there, as though to soothe it herself.
Artus checked the time, still blinking to focus his eyes, "About two centares, I think..."
"What was your alarm set for, anyway?"
"I used to get up and work out at this time of day, when I was in prison grid cell...guess I forgot to switch it off..."
"Oh well, then I guess that's alright. I wondered if you had another date with someone..", she pulled the thermal blanket up under her arms, as she turned over with her back to Artus, and closed her eyes again.
Artus moved up close to Persephone and folded his muscular arms around her from behind, and whispered into her ear, "Yes I do actually, and she'll be here any centon, so if you could get dressed and get out, that would great...." Turning her head slightly to glare at him, holding a serious look, "You want me to smack you in the other eye"? "Hmmm...Is that your way of saying you want a second date..like right now...", he whispered again to her. Turning her head back on the pillow, she half sighed and half laughed softly, without opening her eyes. "Do we have time?" "Maybe...". He began to nuzzle her earlobe, as he brushed her hair away from her neck and kissed her skin gently, working his way over to her bare shoulder, and continued kissing her down her arm, but the soft air of his breathe upon her skin, made her ticklish, and she pulled back her arm slightly as pleasant shivers tingled down her spine. The next thing she knew, she was beginning to giggle uncontrollably, as Artus had by now realized she was ticklish by the touch of his breathe. He decided to find out just how ticklish she was. His hands dived under the covers.
"Stop! don't you darrrrr----------eeeee...Artus!" "Don't what, Pers?? huh?? Don't do this?", he continued without mercy to tease her with light touches of his fingers upon her skin, a huge smile spreading across his face, as they both now laughed. She turned back over to face him."Okay...okay... you found out...I'm ticklish!" Artus chuckled, "Then I reserve the right to attack any time I like..."he jibbed at her. She smiled back at him and curled her lips up in amusement. For a few microns, they fell silent and gazed back at each other, wondering what each other's thoughts were right then. Wrapping his arms tighter around her, she held him close, the room light filled the chamber with a dim illumination. His eyes gave her a suggestive smile.
"So will I have any warning the next time you decide to declare a war of the tickles?", she asked softly.
"Nope....I thought you like surprises anyway?"
"I do...but only if I have something to defend myself with in return..."
"Oh you don't need to defend yourself, you just think you need to defend yourself, but what you really want is to be ...."
"Artus..."
"What?"
"Shut up".
"Did you just tell me to..."
"Yes, I did."
Artus saw a glint in her eyes, as she held his stare, then together they broke out into a chuckle. He rested his forehead upon hers, tenderly gazing into her eyes.

He pulled her in close to him, and kissed her deeply. As their lips parted, and their eyes opened again, Persephone felt herself longing to know what was in his heart. "Artus...."
"Hmm?"
She wanted to tell him her feelings, feelings that had been with her in truth since the first day they had met, but didn't know how to all of a sudden.
"What is it, baby?"
Her mouth slightly gaped in thought, she liked it when he called her that, her heart seemed to be beating in a jagged pattern now, and her chest tightened, but she forced herself to say the words she longed to say. "What is this between us? ....I mean, this, what's just happened here? "
"Well...Pers... normally it's called.."
"No..I know what we call it, that's not what I meant..."
"Well, then what did you mean?"
She let out a sigh, and swallowed. "I mean....this, this ....this way we are, the affection, the attentions, the attraction, the chemistry between us, this...this..."
Artus took her hand and held it up to his lips and kissed it, replying, "You mean this?", and continued to kiss her hand slowly ,then her wrist, moving to her lower arm, and the inside of her elbow'.
Why did he know just how to touch her? This would become a long drawn out answer, she thought.
"Artus...please, just answer me straight. I want to know what it is we have here?"
He stopped and lay his blue eyes upon the questioning emerald eyes that peered out at him. "You want to know if I have feelings for you, is that it? Women always want to know that, right?"
Her heart stopped beating for that moment, waiting for his answer, and hoping she wasn't just another girl to him.
Artus saw Persephone's thoughts racing in her eyes, but couldn't speak for the inability to express what he might have truly felt toward her, since they day they met, when she was just a green cadet, and all cute in her uniform. He was in the middle of sorts of felgercab back then, including getting his pilot's licence re-instated, ordered to take private simulator training again. He wanted to ask her out to dinner that very night he met her, but changed his mind, in light of his recent troubles with trying to date among the ranks. But despite it all, he knew he was deeply attracted to her, and loved being with her, but the last time he let himself have feelings for another woman, she let him know there was nothing more between them. It had crushed him. What if Persephone might do the same thing, after she realizes she might have made a mistake making love to him, and goes back to Triton or something? What if she was just vulnerable and only stayed with him for comfort after breaking up with Triton, even though he wasn't the right guy for her anyway? But Artus didn't believe for micron deep down that she was the kind of woman who made love to a man for shallow reasons. If she was with a man, it was with a lot of meaning in it. Should he bare his feelings to her? He felt she wanted to say something to him about her own toward him, but did he want to hear it? What would that mean? A relationship? Him, Artus, in a relationship?
Persephone held her hand up to his cheek, and he felt the warmth of her hand upon his skin absorb into him, he didn't want to even admit it to himself, but it made his heart melt a little. No.... a lot. Was he falling for her? He even longed to hear her feelings now, but would a woman like her ever love him? Could she? Did she?

Turning back to Plwel as he tugged on the rest of his uniform, Logan couldn't resist, "Gives a whole new meaning to 'when the jackets some off', doesn't it? Maybe that should be left to times when there isn't an audience, hmm?"
Bouri laughed out loud after Logan's remark of their personal inside joke. He had missed her, and wasn't entirely sure even now that he wasn't in the middle of a dream vs. really getting ready to walk to the Officer's Club. Lt. Plwel finished getting himself together and straitening his bunk. He grabbed his laser and belt secured in his locker and fastened the buckle around his waist and the holster strap around his leg. Looking up at his warrior maiden, Plwel extended his hand towards the barracks door and said.."Shall we then?" Logan turned and started to walk up the short stairs followed by Plwel who was close behind her.
As they walked through the corridors together, there was minimal conversation between the two officers. Logan kept her usual authoritative appearance to everyone as she walked and took a moment here and there to glance at Plwel. Although she didn't allow her face to show it very much, he could see her smiling at him with the corners of her eyes as they seemed to move back in pleasant awknoledgement. Plwel wanted very much to take her hand, but knew it was not the appropriate time to do so. Another moment would come soon for them to be alone again. So until that happened, Bouri had her kiss to hold on to in his mind that they shared down on the base.....there wasn't much farther to go when Logan finally piped up saying..."So Lieutenant, did you enjoy your rest period?" Plwel immediately answered her question saying.."Yes, ma'am...thank you for asking. However, it would have been more pleasant if you were..." Plwel's eyes got big and he quickly realized what he was saying out loud...what he was secretly thinking inside to himself.....he quickly tried to cover up and re-direct his words with a slight blush to his face as he continued......"Um...I mean..um...if I had taken time to go to the turbo wash first to get a little cleaner before settleing down in my bunk....yes...that is what I meant to say...overall it was very pleasant....thank you." Plwel focused his face anywhere but on Logan to hide his embarrassment.
Before they knew it, they were entering the Officer's Club. The room wasn't that crowded...a few officers here and there conversing. Logan sat down at a table in the coner on the main floor as Plwel picked up two mugs from the bar attendant and brought them over. As he handed her the mug, Plwel spoke saying..."I am assuming Anya that Ambrosia is acceptable?" Capt Logan squinted her eyes at Plwel and a questioning yet smiling expression came across her face as she her her name spoken by him again. Seeing this, Plwel continued with a playful smile on his face and tone in his voice as he sat down next to her....."Go on Captain.....I can tell you are are DYING inside to ask me how I found out your first name. I know it is eating you alive that you can't figure it out.....so go ahead....ask me"

Plwel moved in a bit closer to Logan so that their conversation would be a little more private. He was sure Logan did not want the entire club to hear the details. As he looked at her he began to speak...."It is actually quite simple really. I have noticed on several occassion that you like to extend your arm and rest it on people when you talk to them personally...myself included on a couple of occassions. and on the base, when you put your hands on my shoulders to bring me close to you, I noticed a thin braclet...." Plwel put down his mug, and took Logan's left hand to raise it up. He pushed back the material of her jacket and tunic to reveal what he was referring to...a simple braclet made of polished silver with small hand crqfted symbolic charms of gold on the top center and polished copper around the base....as he continued...."A charm type braclet you wear....almost concealed on your wrist behind your chronometer. Where did you get it?" Logan looked down at her wrist and looked back at Plwel as she responded to his question..."Well....I...I don't really know where I got it. I have had it since I can remember as a small child. I have always assumed someone very close to me...my parents, another family member maybe. The braclet has had to be replaced over the yahrens, but I had the charms reset on the new bands because they were so beautiful. I have inquired on the charm inscriptions several times, but nobody has been able to tell me what they are or what them mean." Plwel looked at her with astonishment as he said..."Nor would I suspect anyone whould be able to. Those symbols are of the ancient Kobol language. I would be surprised if there were even a handful left in the fleet who would even recognize let alone be able to read that language. However, my father, being a historical human geneology scholar and expert, along with his strong political background can.....which means....so can I. The five center symbols represent the ancient name Annyanda, which in our common language translates to the name Anya. Legend tells us that Lords of Kobol commissioned the angel Annyanda to take her place in the stars as a sentinel to watch over and guide us to the heavens to join them once we depart this life. The rest of the symbols around the braclet are a blessing upon you for health, protection and happiness throughout your life. This bessing, along with the legend of your name, say allot about you to others and why you are the dedicated warrior you are. Anyways, that is how I discovered your secret."
After finishing his comments, Plwel just held Logan's hand in his and smiled as she stared at him with wonderment. She began to speak softly trying to hold back her emotion......

"I...I had no idea...." she said in a soft voice, looking from Plwel to the bracelet and back again. She didn't even think that here she was in the middle of the Officer's Club, in full view of everyone, holding hands with another officer.
She found her voice again and said, "My sister...she had one too, only with a different central symbol. I'm guessing that one represented her name as well." This pronouncement seemed to be more than she could take, as Logan's gaze stared beyond Plwel and into her past. Her grip on his hands tightened as she fought to bring her emotions under control.
"She was killed. Long ago. She's the reason I became a Warrior. I wasn't able to protect her when it mattered."
Plwel rubbed her hands between his own. "What was her name?"
"Kellie." It was a whisper and the first time she'd said it out loud in yahrens. The pain wrapped around that single utterance showed clearly a grief that had been hding under the surface. She brought herself to look into Plwel's eyes again and saw his concern and sympathy. "She was to be sealed. To Skyler."

Skyler was sitting behind his desk. He was leaning back in his chair, his hands clasped behind his head staring at the ceiling. His request to join Brie’s Fleet had been denied. Apollo was taking that stupid vision way too serious. A small part of him wanted to really believe that changing the past was right. A small part of it was right… Kellie would still be alive…. Around 6 yahrens old, but alive… At this micron he was getting home from school. His father was watching the news coverage on the Peace Conference. Every channel had coverage of it, for over a secton that was all that they talked about. Skyler half cracked a smile, he remembered being so mad when his favorite show had been cut into by Serina, with the latest update on the pending conference. If they had came back 8 cycles sooner he would have been able to catch the last aired episode of that show, to see his childhood heroes, Gage and DeSoto in action again, but now, just a few cycles from the Conference, nothing but news was on. It was like watching History Scans of the Destruction of the Colonies. They always started with the old News Scans, and then ended with the broadcast of Serina as the Cylons rained death down on them. Then some shots of the survivors and the Colonies in ruins. How all that would soon change, forever altered. A new history is in the process of being written, a history with out so many born after the holocaust. This was the major sticking point in jumping on Apollo’s cause. Is one life worth more than the next? Can you do something that will cease the lives of Brie’s children, to save the lives of those that died over 30 yahren ago?

Plwel thought to himself for a moment before he spoke to Logan..."Kellie you say? Well that name does not translte back to any ancient Kobol writing or legend I am aware of. Was her given name Kellie or is that just the name she was known and went by? I could research it for you if you would like me to.." As Plwel went on, he looke up at Logan again who appeared distrot by the memory of her sister. She didn't respond back to him after he recent question and seemed to not want to be there anymore. "I am sorry if I have made you upset Anya. Perhaps i should take you back to your quarters so you can relax and get some rest." Logan responded back saying..."Yes...that is probably a good idea....I really don't want others to see me like this."
The two warrior stood up and exited the club heading back towards Logan's quarters. She did well to keep her composure but again did not hardly speak as they walked together. Plwel tried to lighten the moment and spoke up..."You know, I think you would really like my parents....they found me abandoned when I was just an infant on Virgon. They took me in and raised me as their own. My father is very intelligent and knows about all there is to know about ancient humanity and the legends and writings of the Lords of Kobol. He has taught me allot throughout my life. If you are up to it sometime, I would really like you to meet them." Logan stopped for a micron and looked at Plwel and just smiled at him. He could still see some glassyness in her eyes but appeared appreciative of his words.
They continued on again until they reached Logan's quarters. The hallways were fairly empty with personnel out and about. Plwel assisted Logan into her room and sat her down on a chair by her bed. While she removed her jacket, Plwel went to the counter and got her a glass of water and brought it back to her. Logan took a drink and placed the glass down on the end table next to her. She reached out and wrapped her arms around Plwel's waste and just held him close to her. Plwel returned the gesture by just holding her head close and stroking her long hair so she would know he was there for her. No words were spoken by either as they just held each other. After a few centons, Plwel bent down and kissed Logan on her forehead and said..."Now why don't you get some rest. I will come back with some food later and check up on you. You will feel much better after a long shower and a nap. Thank you for finally joining me for a drink." Plwel kissed her forehed once again and then turned to depart Logan's quarters.........

"Is it asking too much to know what you might feel for me, then?" Persephone studied Artus' reactions.
He sat up, the blanket falling down, covering just his lap. The dim light cast soft shadows over his back. Pulling his knees up and leaning his elbows upon them, he ran a hand through his tousled hair, and let out a sigh. She held her breathe for that impending answer of perhaps being the opposite of what she held some hope for. She began to regret ever asking him now. Artus seemed to stare into space, as though arguing with himself over what to say to Persephone.
She decided to plunge in first before he could answer. Her mouth seemed to have a mind of it's own, being lead to step off into the unknown. Sitting up, she held the blanket up to her, and placed a hand on his shoulder, she moved up closer to his side.
"Before we made love, you said you needed me, ...always needed me, and wanted me. I said the same things to you, if you recall. I meant it, Artus "
Artus turned his head around at her, agape slightly at the mouth.
Persephone held her head up and looked at him resolvedly, holding a strange air of magnanimity about her. It made Artus take notice of what she was about to say even more.
"I felt your feelings for me tonight, and I let you see mine. This isn't just a one night stand, Artus. Perhaps you thought I was vulnerable, having just come out of relationship with Triton, but that's not it." She paused, and nuzzled her nose against his cheek, and closed her eyes for a moment. He felt the warmth of her passion all over again flowing through him.
"I have cared for you from the start, from the very first time I met you. But I was fighting it all this time, because I wasn't ready to truly care for someone again, not after loosing .....", she stumbled to try to finish the last word.
Artus crinkled his brow at her, "After loosing who, Pers?"
She gazed into the air away from his eyes, remembering the day she was told that Chiron was gone. Moving her eyes to meet with Artus' again, she answered him.
"A man I once loved. His name was Chiron", Persephone's eyes glazed over feeling the pain of it all over again. "You don't know much about me, or what my life was before I joined the Callisto...".
Artus took both her hands into his and held them tenderly and spoke. "If you want to tell me, then you can. But there isn't much that's happened in anyone's life in the fleet, that hasn't fracked up our lives in some way. Hey, take it from me, I'm missing two yahrens of my life, I get slammed into prison any time I walk a little crooked in a corridor, or look at the mess hall silver for too long, y'know, just in case I'm secretly communicating with the Imperious Leader or something through the metal utensils, and then I'm interrogated until I think I have no neuro cells left in my head to poke and prod at, and you think you're an emotional wreck?"
"Is that what they do to you in there?", her face showed a deep sympathy for him.
"That's just the icing on the cake... but in any case, what I'm saying is, I know we don't know that much about each other just yet, and I get it, you're messed up on the inside too, like me, but at least we know how to test these matresses....", he patted the layer under him, then flashed a wide grin at her.
Holding his gaze, she couldn't help but allow Artus to make her smile again, despite the melancholic memories of her past. The smile lasted only for a mircon though, before she came back her original question. "So is that all you pursued me for?"
Artus placed his index finger under her chin, lifting her face up to meet his own once more. "Is that what you think, Pers?"
"I ....I'm not su...I don't know", she whispered, with a slight quiver in her voice.
Kissing her softly, Artus took her back in his arms and held her close, lowering his head to look into her eyes, he gently spoke. "Why don't I show you how I feel?"
"Artus, ....I have to tell you...", but he just hushed her, as he leaned in. "Artus ...I really want to tell you that I ...", he touched his forehead upon hers, and peered deep into her eyes. Persephone couldn't hold it in anymore, she felt an incredible surge of emotion sweep over her, and she told Artus. "I love you". Even though her brain couldn't fathom from where this love stemmed from, as she barely knew Artus, but somehow she did. It was like her love for him were a precious drop falling from heaven into her heart, and it couldn't be stopped, nor diverted or put on pause nor suspended in time, it simply entered her heart and soul, without warning, without any explanations prior. All she knew was, she loved him, as though it were always there, just waiting for this moment. It felt right, nothing felt more right to her in a very long time more than being in Artus' embrace, and how she felt for him.

Artus closed his eyes for what seemed yahrens, as did she, as they leaned with their heads together in the darkness, silent. He breathed through his mouth with almost nervous and almost erratic breathes. How is it, this woman could put him in this position, trying to break down the wall he usually put up around him by acting the usual way he did around women. But she touched his soul and heart, single handedly in one foul swoop. How did he let that happen? Like some kind of thief in the night, she had broken into his heart , he realized he was about to loose something, if he let her. Finally he spoke.
"I love you too".
They stared into one another for a further moment. A smile of joy spread across Persephone's face, there was a twinkle that shone in her eyes like he never saw before. He felt his soul merging with hers, intertwined powerfully, binding them in that moment in time. Suddenly, he didn't feel afraid of what he felt for her anymore.
There were no more words said. They fell back onto the pillows, and lost themselves in each other again.
Lying in his arms, resting, she thought about how when she woke up this morning, she would never have guessed it would turn out like this by the night. Artus was contemplating a similar thought, as he continued gazing at her, wondering how one meaningful look at her before he stepped out of the shuttle this morning, before they launched for their mission, would transform their tense relationship into this. Sure, he always had his eye, actually both, on her from day one, and he knew he would get to be with her eventually, but there was something else beneath it all. He just never thought further on the matter since. Now he had professed feelings to her, well, he had to admit, he scored, more than once that night, but this wasn't just about that anymore. He did love her, even though he didn't know how this happened. It felt good though.
Persephone opened her eyes to find Artus watching her sleeping. He kind of had a slight furrow on his brow as he looked at her. "I see you have that whole smouldering thing still happening, or is that just gas?", she asked, her own brows arched in a teasing way.
"No, that's just my raw male magnetism normally, but right now, I'm hungary, baby you famish me...let's go get something to eat."
"I knew that wasn't my stomach growling..." she stated at him as she began to rise. "Oh no...that was your stomach too...I heard you..", he quipped back. Artus began to look for his uniform on the floor, "Hey, have you seen my leg strap for my .....?", he tossed pieces of clothing aside as he searched.
"For that matter if you see my holster down there...let me know, I think it got buried under some of your uniform...", Persephone dressed quickly fastening her tunic at the shoulder.
He tossed her holster up at her. "Thanks, darling". Artus stopped searching and looked up at her. She had froze also, as though someone had just played back what she had said.
The half dressed lieutenant, grinned amused, "You think I'm a darling?"
She scrunched her lips to one side, "Um...well...yes?" "Let's work on the pet names shall we?", Artus returned to crawling around on the floor. "You don't like darling?" Seeing something out of the corner of her eye, she walked over to it. "Makes us sound like a sealed couple or something...." he mumbled. "Well, what about 'honey'?" Reaching the box that Artus had thrown their jackets onto earlier,she found his leg strap. Artus paused when he saw Persephone's boots standing in front of him. "Looking for this?", she said as she draped it over one finger.
Standing up he sort of blushed, as he took the item from her and wrapped it around his leg. "What about if you just call me irresistible, and the best looking guy this side of the universe?" "Let's keep on working on it, shall we?", she answered back sweetly.
Artus pressed himself up close to her and kissed her lightly on the cheek, "Next time, when you're ripping my cloths off, make sure you discard of them in an orderly fashion, you made such a mess, lieutenant, I couldn't find a thing." "Well, why don't you make a mental note to sit down with me and discuss discipline in the matter of abandoned behaviour , Lieutenant. I mean, after all this sort of display shouldn't be allowed...".
"Oh I intend to teach you a thing or two....in fact I think punishment is in order and I have just the .......". Persephone cut into his words though, "Artus?" "Yeah?"
"Let's go and eat". Throwing on his jacket, Artus smiled and followed her out of the room, but glanced back at it where they had just spent an incredible evening. He opened the door for them. They stopped once more to exchange smiles, before making their way to the mess hall.

Their personal comms both went off at the same time. Gold Squadron. Report to Alpha Bay.
Hearing the message on the comm link, Plwel sighed and rolled his eyes as he got up from his chair. He looked at Logan and said bodly.."I sure would rather clmb back into bed and stay here with you Anya......but I know...it is time for the jackets to go back on.....for now." Both he and Logan laghed as Plwel put on his jacket and grabbed his gunbelt and headed towards the door. He stopped just short and turned around heading back towards Logan..."I just have to have one more.." Bouri grabbed Logan and brought her close again and kissed her deeply. She wrapped her arms around him once more for a moment and returned his affection before he pulled away. "I will leave first.....wait a few centons before you follow out not to make it look too obvious. I will see you in Alpha Bay......by your leave....Captain." Bouri concluded with a half cracked smile on his face. "Get the hades out of here before I throw something at you Plwel." Logan responded playfully.
Plwel walked out the door of Logan's quarters while fastening the buckle of his gunbelt around his waist. As he did, he heard a voice say to him..."Doesn't look like you got too much rest Lieutenant...." As Plwel looked up, he saw Capt Nero staring at him with a smirk on his face..."Hopefully she won't keep me waiting too long now." Nero continued.
