Searching for the Lost Astillon (Private: Arianda/Kitarune)

Asleep, asleep and under the sheets of her bed was the demon Arianda Vael; the Angel of Conflict. She slept and dreamed, dreamed of times with Kita. Nothing lewd, at least not on purpose, but most of her dreams seemed to be so pure... so wholesome. So much so that such dreams humbled Ari's mind and body as she lay in bed; curled up in a warm little ball as her own inhibitions slowly beat their way to the front of her mind. A memory long concealed from Ari purposefully; the memory of her first love and what became of that... ordeal. A shiver ran through Ari's mind, and body, as she remembered and dreamed such horrible things.

Then, without warning, she felt Amphy's consciousness awaken and comfort Ari gently and warmly; helping the demon regain some semblance of calm. In fact, Amphy's presence felt so much stronger... so much closer than it had in the past. It felt nice, really, to have some comfort even if Arianda had an amazing night. However, she let out a soft hum in her sleep, uncurling gently as her body relaxed. However, a noise made the demon's eyes snap open; breaking her dreams. Amphy was still present, but she had fallen asleep; in a sense. That was not what bothered Ari.

Someone had opened her door. Indeed, it could have been Aki, Ari's daughter; but it wasn't. Not even close. It was a fair maiden with purple hair; Kitarune. Arianda blinked and rubbed her eyes as she watched the woman approach and, without warning, slipped into the sheets with Ari. She was close, so close Ari could easily smell the sweet aroma that arose from Kita; as well as feel the tremors that wracked her body. Not to mention, Ari could also feel the emotions that were pouring out of Kita much like the tears that had previously adorned her face before she arrived in Ari's room. The demon blinked at Kita before smiling warmly.

Such a warm, caring smile adorned Ari's face as her arms slowly pulled Kita into a warm, safe, embrace; very gingerly pulling Kita against her. She also did her best to make sure Kita felt that every part of her was safe; she even gently wrapped a single leg around one of Kita's. She nuzzled her forehead against Kita's own, pressing her nose to the woman's own nose, and then spoke softly; hoping that sleep would take both of them and let them sleep peacefully. A peaceful sleep between these two women, lying in a warm embrace, would be the best thing Ari could wish for this night. So, Ari spoke with a kindness, such warmth, that it likely could comfort Kita even more than the warm embrace could.

"It's okay, Kita. I'm right here, everything's fine and I'm not going anywhere. You're safe."
