Luz, meanwhile, is just busy being carried by a Trenchie she didn't know for a bit, but still eagerly listening to her girlfriend. It was starting to dawn on her that she better figure out what to do about the ritual soon though. The day was already coming up.

"Nah, I don't think I will. I still have to do the ritual, and if I'm like this, it's just going to make things worse. I WANT to say I'm still strong, but that won't help us."

And Luz couldn't shake the feeling that Riteior might WANT the person to risk health and possibly die so they couldn't continue the ritual.

"In that case, you give me an idea on what's going on in that book. I might pick it up one day!"

Goodness knows she didn't have anything better to do now than recover.

Sniff. Luz would miss pork. Hopefully turkey was a good alternative.

"Ooh, the graphics on those were pretty visceral! But I think I'd be too busy trying to roller skate if there was a rink, and then between the breaks I'd play in the arcade!"

Assuming she didn't break a leg out in the rink first.

"Oh, definitely do! It's a good story, and I like how the protagonist changes throughout the story."

Why hadn't they had a decent date night? They needed one! Preferably when they were both feeling well!

"Aladdin's got nothing on me!" Luz bragged, giving a wink before letting loose with another wheeze. Stupid sickness.

"I'm more than happy to ride on the Lexi Express, yes please."

Luz blinked. "That sounded more suggestive than I meant it to."
