That's what .you. get when .you. let your ♥heart♥ win, whoa...I drowned out all my [[sense]] with the sound of its •beating•... Mickey shot Higis a look that said 'get over it' and turned back to Ran. "I don't know," she admitted, "Just something about it make me curious." She shrugged. It was probably just that she hadn't seen a map of Genesis before. "Pro'ly nothing special." ... Hey, make your way to me, to me
And -I'll- always be just so inviting...... If I ever start to think ←straight→
This ♥heart♥ will start a ·r·i·o·t· in ||me||... Why do we + like+ to hurt .: so much:. ?

That's what .you. get when .you. let your ♥heart♥ win, whoa...I drowned out all my [[sense]] with the sound of its •beating•... The sun had set, and Keara was definitely feeling uncomfortable. Sure, the food had been great, and Apollo's stepmother and sister were nice and all, but she felt so... out of place. She had spent the entire day hanging around in Kelden, when normally she would have been travelling in the forests, and probably would have mugged someone already. But no, instead she was playing the not-girlfriend while Apollo went to see his mommy.
It wasn't like she had much of a choice. He had the mirror, she needed the key, and she had to behave while she was with him. But that was no fun. Sure, she had only become a bandit to survive, but Keara enjoyed it from time to time...
However, for now, she had to behave. And so, there she was, sitting in a borrowed pair of pyjamas on a borrowed bed in the Flavian household. Apollo's stepmother had taken it upon herself to clean all of Keara's clothes, despite the blonde's protests. Keara had managed, though, to grab onto everything else beforehand. Apollo was downstairs somewhere.
The girl flopped back on the bed, staring up at the ceiling. "I'm so bored," she murmured under her breath. ... Hey, make your way to me, to me
And -I'll- always be just so inviting...... If I ever start to think ←straight→

Higis merely stuck his tounge out of his mouth as a reply, sitting in the same spot with his arms crossed over his chest.
At mention of the map, the woman seemed to get slightly more attentive though if it was because of the map itself or the idea of finally getting a wish was hard to discern. Of course, she wasn't about to unveil her own thoughts- knowing that her opinion could easily sway depending on the manner in which she spoke.
"It looked like an ordinary map but..." Ran started, hesitating before starting up again, "There were odd symbols that had been placed on the map. It's true that there are usually markings made on maps but these seemed to not have anything to do with the other."

That's what .you. get when .you. let your ♥heart♥ win, whoa...I drowned out all my [[sense]] with the sound of its •beating•... "Think it's worth asking for?" If Ran didn't, Mickey had no more ideas. Still, she could probably come up with something else, even though it would probably take a little while longer.
Larissa was tired. The lack of sunlight coming through the window told her it was nighttime. She had done just as Hari had told her--she'd locked the door of the room at the inn and not let anybody in. It seemed most of the group had not awoken, aside from the two blond guys, and the fairy was wondering what had kept them asleep for so long. It couldn't possibly have just been exhaustion. She hadn't spoken to either of the two guys in a long time, and she was getting hungry, too. Larissa didn't want to leave the room, but if they went with her...
"Are you two hungry?" she spoke finally.
"Apollo, you can't keep her with you," advised his stepmother, her deameanor having changed to a much more serious one, "You have a job to do and you can't get sidetracked."
"I'm not getting sidetracked," he argued calmly, "We're both headed in the same direction anyway."
"And what if she finds the mirror?"
"She won't."
"But what if?"
The mood between the two was tense. Apollo knew the woman had a point, but something told him he would need Keara, and to keep her around.
"If she does, I'll give her no reason to believe it's nothing more than a regular mirror." There was another silence as his stepmother took in his words. When nobody spoke, the man started again, "Trust me. I've come this far, right?"
"... Alright," she answered finally, "But be careful; don't get her into a dangerous situation. I already have one daredevil to worry about. And don't get too attached to her, either."
Apollo nodded. Of course, he didn't take the bit about dangerous situations as seriously as the woman wanted him to. He hadn't told her Keara was a bandit. ... Hey, make your way to me, to me

"It seems as though we have nothing better to wish for..." Ran spoke with a shrug, "I have nothing to wish for and most of Higis' ideas would surely blow up in our faces."
"Surely you do not desire such a worthless object?" the woman spoke, sounding quite bored.

"Hey I'm not saying I'm against anything. I would think that most people would wish for something of value. Jewels, money, love, whatever..." the woman responded in the same manner as before. Sure, she didn't want them to wish for the map, but she couldn't let them think that as well.

"Ran said he doesn't need money, and I'd rather earn those things than wish for them," explained the girl. Really, the main reason was not trusting the woman to give them what they really wanted, but that went unsaid. ... Hey, make your way to me, to me

"Uh-huh... well you know what you need to say in order to get your mystical item of wonder," the woman spoke, making sarcastic motions.

"You still don't want to do the wishing yourself?" the man asked, chuckling a bit.

She knew she was being stupid, but it was a matter of principle. Plus she was as stubborn as a mule when she wanted to be. ... Hey, make your way to me, to me

Ran laughed and shrugged before looking at the other woman. "Alright. We wish for the map... with the markings that other maps in Genesis do not have," Ran spoke, adding on the extra part to help keep it from being an ordinary map.
"Alright, alright~ Your wish is my command. Yadda yadda yadda... no refund... whatever," the woman spoke boredly before twisting her hand- the map appearing in her hand during the motion. "Here you are. A map with with unique markings."

"Oh good," spoke the fairy, "Hari wanted me to stay up here but it should be fine if we go in a group. They have food downstairs anyway, I think. Wanna go eat?" She had already stood up.
Mickey stepped up, a little hesitantly, to see the map. She didn't take it quite yet. "Is it the right one, Ran?" she asked the man. He'd been looking at it longer than her when they got to the room. ... Hey, make your way to me, to me
