Destiny's Tears: Zykovian's Sidetrack

"Very well, Lyv," Zykovian replied, an easy grin on his face. "You're more than welcome to sleep with in bed, if you wish."

"You know I don't sleep, Zyk," Lyveria shakes her head slightly but smiles, "But if you think it will help, I will hold you while you sleep like I did before."
 

"Yes, I know you don't sleep, but I do know you enjoy being held," Zykovian offered. He still held her with one arm as he turned and began to make his was to the bedroom. "And I need to be up awfully soon for the convocation . . . so I believe I'll actually be sleeping with you tongiht . . . or this morning.."

Zykovian reflected when he needed to be up and let Lyveria know.
 

"Very well then, Zyk. I will awaken you as soon as it is time."

*Lyveria and Zykovian head off to bed, and the beleaguered bounty hunter soon falls into a quiet sleep in her warm embrace.*

*He is still somewhat exhausted when she gently calls his name to awaken him a few hours later.*
 

Zykovian spent several minutes cuddling (it was factored into his wake up time) before getting ready for the convocation. He also gathered his belongings, knowing that he would need to be ready to move out sometime by the end of the day . . . his last day in his flat.
 

"You're gathering everything up--you have to move out today, right? If you want, I can move your things out while you go to your classes." Lyveria suggests as she watches Zykovian prepare.
 

"That would be fine, Lyveria," Zykovian replied. "I've made arrangements to stay at the Laughing Sail Inn if you want to move my remaining belongings there."

Zykovian considered making a final sweet talk with the owner of the flat . . . though he hadn't met the person but once.

OOC: Don't know how much rent is on the flat or who the owner is.
 

"Certainly. I will do so as soon as you are ready."

(OOC: The flat is owned by the Enterprise Consortium, a Dolathi group, basically an extended family, that owns much of the land in the city and leases it out or sells it for the right price, buying it back as well when appropriate)
 

Zykovian gathered what scraps of food he had left for breakfast and continued to dress. He mulled over the cost of the rent and whether the landlord would be stopping by today. Zykovian gathered his gear and put his notes in his satchel. He wondered what to do with his key and decided he would hold onto it.

"I'm going to hold onto the key for the moment, Lyv," Zykovian explained. "There shouldn't be more than one trip here. . . maybe two. And I doubt anyone would steal from the house while we're moving items. What do you think?"
 

"Indeed, it does seem probabilistically unlikely that anyone would try this particular door and find it unlocked during the short span of time that it would be unlocked. It is a risk, but not an appreciable one."
