[Emil sucks in a breath. Out of everyone he knows, Lloyd is the most confusing, the one he's had the biggest change of feelings about, too. Lloyd didn't do any of the slaughters; that was all Decus. But Lloyd is after the cores. Surely a few times they've run into the real Lloyd and not Decus. He's grateful he doesn't have the cores on him, because things could get really tense then.

And despite all his worrying, Lloyd hasn't tried to hurt Marta. He hasn't tried to pull Ratatosk's core from her. Even Richter has tried that. But not Lloyd.

Still, Lloyd hasn't given anyone answers, not even his dear friends. No matter his reasons and how much Emil wants to understand him, even now he feels a little angry on their behalf. It isn't the time for that, though. He needs to make sure Lloyd actually stays first.]

Lloyd, wait! I'm not going to fight you! And I don't have the cores, so we can forget that for now, all right?

[If he's honest with himself, there's another reason he wants Lloyd to stay. Like it or not, he's the only person here he knows so far. This is a very strange, lonely world after finally gaining friends.]

So please don't run.

[ he says nothing in response to his words. if Emil's looking for any good news, Lloyd's also not moving from his spot, as he requested. this leaves Lloyd feeling conflicted. he's aware that the only reason why they're on opposing sides is because of the cores-- well that, and the fact that apparently this kid has one heck of a temper tantrum and at one point believed that he was responsible for Palmacosta. he's sure that if they got past the cores, they could be great comrades, even friends.

at the same time though, Lloyd is a man with a mission, and that mission includes distancing himself from his friends for their sake. he doesn't want them to get hurt, and if anyone knew about his intentions, it'd just put him, his friends, and the entire world at risk. and that was something Lloyd didn't want to test, not after all of the effort his friends had put into reuniting the worlds.

no, he'd definitely want to keep his distance if the situation allowed him to... but this isn't Aselia. this is the Drabwurld, a completely different place, and Lloyd knows logically that he and Emil would have to stick together in order for them to survive. this makes it difficult for Lloyd, since he's sure that Emil will be questioning him much like he was sure Zelos would.

dammit... what should he do...?

Noishe was quick to note the tension between them, and he leaves Emil's side to go to Lloyd, nudging him with a soft whine. Lloyd's gaze doesn't break from Emil, and it's at Noishe's second attempt that Lloyd finally looks away, looking at Noishe with a slightly exasperated smile and a pat to the head. Noishe yips, wagging his tail even has Lloyd looks back to Emil, though his stare isn't as antagonizing as before. ]

How long ago did you get here?
