"So, when did you get the... y'know?" Taylor asked.
"That was a few years back." Annabelle replied, knowing exactly what she was talking about. The two had gotten into a fight with some Zourima, and now they were in a cafe talking. "When did you get yours?"
"It was kinda random, honestly. Like, not a warning or test, just bam, power." Taylor said, chuckling nervously.
"Not to sound pretentious, but I had to fight my partner to get the power. You had it easy." Annabelle said, chuckling as well.

Thorne set his finished piece aside. He had been up all night working on it, and had sent everyone home at closing. He didn't want to make people stay to finish, but that left him on his own. But it was finally done, and could get to the recipient on time. He yawned as he reached for his cell, dialing Taylor.

Her phone rang, and she checked it quickly. "Oh, excuse me, I have to take this."
"Oh, it's no trouble." Annabelle said. Taylor got up and walked outside, answering the call.
"Hey." She said.

"Hey," he answered, rubbing his eyes, "You mind if I come see you somewhere? I'm probably going to bed soon for the whole day, and just would like to see you at least once."

"Well, I'm currently with a friend, but sure." Taylor told him where she was.

"Who was that?" Annabelle asked as Taylor resumed her seat.
"My boyfriend, Thorne." Taylor said. Annabelle blinked.
"Well, this will be interesting." Annabelle said, taking a sip.
"It makes sense you've met him, since he's like us." Taylor said, taking a wild stab at what her statement meant.

He showed up in about ten minutes, the long night clearly showing on him. He headed over, but slowed when he saw Annabelle.
"Shit...," he muttered.

"Hi." Annabelle said, smiling.
"Hi Thorne." Taylor said, getting up to meet him. "Jeez, you look like shit."

"I sent everyone home when their shift ended. I stayed up all night to finish a few...," he told her.

"Well, that seemed unnecessary. Come on, sit down." Taylor led him over to the table. "Thorne, I guess you've met Annabelle."
"Oh, we met." Annabelle said, smiling.

"No need for a smile like that," he told Annabelle, "She might get the wrong idea."

"Do you two have some kind of history?" Taylor asked, looking between the two.
"We might." Annabelle said, her smile not even fading a little bit.

"One date," he told Taylor. He figured she might be able to figure out who she was, if she remembered his stories.

"The kinky one?" Taylor asked.
"Oh, you told her stories about me?" Annabelle asked. "I'm touched, really."
