eighth; video + action (heartbreaker, heartbreaker, i wanna tear your world apart)
video.
[Nick hasn't been absent from Hadriel for very long in Hadriel days, but for her, it's been months since she's seen the all-too familiar walls of the colosseum, and finding herself within them once again feels nothing short of catastrophic. She's sure she's been angrier than she is now at some previous point in her life, but at the moment, she's having a hard time pulling such an instance from her memory. Shaking and tense, she turns to her phone.]
Which one of you fuckers brought me back?
[She knows exactly who and what are responsible for her being here; this is nothing more than a defiant swing in the dark.]
action.
[Later, once the shock of being returned to Hadriel has begun to fade, Nick can be found right back at Delight's bar, serving drinks as if she never left. There are slight differences, for those who know her well enough to notice - her hair is grown out past her shoulders, and underneath the anger and irrational feeling of betrayal at being brought back after managing to make an escape, there is something like calm, an almost-peace that wasn't present before.]

Action
His gaze, usually so unfocused, gazes right at her as soon as he walks through the door. There's a tight feeling in his chest and it won't go away.]
You came back.
Action
[Her face lights up instantly when she sees him, hears his voice, though it shifts an instant later when she remembers that there had been a message from him on her phone and she'd forgotten to respond in the chaos of her return.]
Shit. You called me right? Man, I'm sorry, I was gonna call you back. I spaced it.
Re: Action
I was worried. I thought you might never come back.
[He takes a few swift steps around the edge of the bar and pulls her into a hug. Ushahin never touches people if he can help it. He's got too many hang-ups about physical contact. But in this case, he'll make an exception. The tight feeling in his chest finally goes away as he hugs her tight.]
Once I lose someone, I almost never see them again. But here you are.

Yeah ... here I am. Shit, I missed you a lot, y'know that?

Fuck being nice. I was - [God, she could just choke on the word] - home.

And gods have a habit of not giving a shit- even when they don't seem to have anything to do with it.

Uh, welcome back?

Thanks. I guess.
[It's not his fault she's back; she knows that much.]
Wish I could say I was glad to be back.

[Time, he knows, can be an obnoxiously difficult little shit when it wants to be, and he long since stopped puttin' any kinda stock in the concept of linearity.]

Action;
So here he was, unaware of what troubles the barmaid had recently been, though, he just wanted his whiskey and try to drown his sleepless nights in the bottom of the bottle.
It was kind of late now, Will had shown up near closing time, he just wanted to grab a night cap, then he could go back to his bed and hope to avoid the nightmares a little longer. Tossing a look at Nick as he nodded, pushing a small, quick smile over his lips as he ordered his drink. ]
Action;
Up late tonight?
Action;
Mhm... Feels like it's going to be a long one. Here's to late nights and plenty of whisky.
[ Raising his glass to her before taking a large gulp from it. ]
