Ceredin paused. Wait, what? Now he was angry with her? Calyx never got angry... What had she done? She stared after him in confusion. Someone sniggered. Ceredin ignored them. It was probably that annoying girl from the Guild. "Wait, where are you going...?" she called after him in confusion. "Are you angry, Calyx?"

Calyx ignored her and kept walking away. Why bother he decided, she obviously didn't care half as much for him as he cared for her.

What...? "Oh..." for a moment, she sounded hurt, and the word quavered. So he'd finally decided he'd had enough of her. Then her voice hardened. "Fine, then. Fine." Her hands curled into fists. Her eyes narrowed at his back. "Told you I was a monster," she muttered, then jerked the collar off her neck and dropped it to the ground. The ring clinked. She turned, too, and leapt to the nearest rooftop. She bounded off to the trees, and didn't look back.
The next morning, Neona was tied up in Ceredin's room, looking very, erm, harassed. Ceredin wasn't there. On the bed was a package labeled "Calyx." It clinked. Inside was the ring, a few gold pieces, and a note that said, For the dress. Sorry. The girl's name is Leelan. I'm sure she'll be around somewhere.

((Sorry, guys. XP
Avi, you know that this needs to happen for my plot anyway.
And what the heck'd you expect her to do- start bawling and profess her love and beg for forgiveness? You forget Ceredin. When she gets 'hurt' emotionally (which actually happens rather easily), she gets angry. It's a defense mechanism.
So you both have to deal with it.))

((Besides, she hasn't actually gone anywhere. She's just avoiding him, for now. She's still technically at the Guild.))

(>< ya know, I used to like this thread)
The next morning, Calyx was running around the guild trying to find Ceredin so he could apologize. He had trudged to her room to say sorry when he'd found the note, which had caused him to thoroughly freak out. He took the ring and collr o he could give it back when he found her, left the coins, and had absolutely no idea in Jilath's name who Leelan was...

((I'm sorry. It was necessary.))
Neona, who had been freed by Calyx, was following him like a puppy.
Ceredin was just outside the Guild, very high up in a tree. She sat on a wide, stable limb, hugging her knees to her chest. It wasn't fair. She'd thought that maybe... well, she'd known that he'd realize what she was really like eventually... but that had been so... sudden... He had been fine one moment, and then the next... Well. Anyway, he'd probably be happier without her. She felt sick, both physically and mentally. Her head hurt. She put her hand up to rub her temple, hoping to make it hurt less. It didn't help. Then, suddenly, it felt better. Unfortunately, that only lasted a second. The side of her head exploded in pain, and her vision grayed, and then failed completely. Realizing that she was not on the branch anymore, she made a mad grab for it through the pain, but missed, and fell. There was a muffled thud, and something moved too quickly to be seen, and Ceredin was nowhere to be found.
Neona stood straight, reaching out with a furred hand to grab Calyx's shoulder. Cere- she began, but she didn't finish the sentence, because suddenly she was gone.

"Wha?" calyx turned around, his eyes widening in shock.

((0o You said you'd trust me. I told you it'd look bad.))
But of course no one was there to answer him.

((Please just trust me. I warned you. Are you going to post again, or are you finished? I could have Leelan harass him, if you'd like... that would be fun, in a very evil way...))
