Merging the seperate

She smiled brightly and if she was unsettled, her relief about being let close by him overshadowed it. Her question made him feel immediately like he was walking out onto thin ice. When had he become the man she thought he was, that was what she wanted to know, was it not? That was impossible to answer without dismantling himself in her eyes. "I suppose it became a vocation in Prague," is what he could say. He did not want to talk about Prague, or Paris. Come to think of it, he did not even want to get too detailed on his time here in Doubt Street.

"I suppose here in this place is where I stopped being an apprentice, in any sense of the word. I became an Alchemist in my own right and discovered much of it was to be about money," he answered carefully. Truthfully, at least. Something in him still held on to the principle of avoiding outright lies in her presence. "Across this desk sat many a familiar face, to whom I sold my creations. Can you guess who I am talking about?"

He leaned back against his desk and he pulled her in by the waist. A familiar position. But the light filtering through the cracks of the boarded up windows to the street was very grey. It had nothing in common with the shine that had clung to her in his office. In this room, both of them looked changed. It was off. He held on tighter to her. It was the only thing that anchored him to her in this environment—his wanting was consistent; it always was. All else was in flux and even this place turned foreign. The dark basement below them seemed ominous and upstairs, the bedroom and bath did not seem to belong to his person at all anymore. Made threadbare and brittle, their emptiness seemed set to attract in something else, something dangerous, that should have nothing to do with her. Perhaps it was not a good plan after all, to show her the rest of this place.
