Crossing Dimensions

TSL battle!

MONTH 2, WEEK 2, DAY 5 7:04 AM

You rushed through the RAD school halls, desperately searching for Solomon. After picking the book up, you described to Chara quickly what you thought you should do.

"We know that Levi's friends are Solomon and me, and with that, I can assume that he likes TSL. I'm going to lose, so..." You frowned. "Do you think Solomon has something to help me? Like a backup plan?"

"Probably, if he is that big of a TSL fan as he says he is. Not like he can beat me though." Chara shrugged, flipping her hair. You shot her a disbelieving look. She retaliated and sighed. "Okay, he might be a tiny bit better than me, but I'm still better!"

Which is why you're scurrying through the halls like a mad man. Finally, after 10 minutes of searching, you spotted a light-skinned, white-haired male talking to Simeon. "Solomon!" You called from afar. He noticed.

You stopped in front of him, trying to catch your breath. "Hi... Simeon... Solomon... morning..."

Simeon raised his eyebrows. "Good morning, Rubina. You're unusually early."

"Likewise, I have an unusual request for Solomon." You point-blanked your gaze towards the wizard. "Solomon, do you know what Levi likes most?"

Solomon nodded, almost too eager to spill. "TSL, or The Seven Lords. Have you taken a liking to him already?" You nodded and answered: "He's nice, if only a bit awkward." He reminded you of Alphys, but more 'Normies should die!' and all that.

Simeon laughed gently, like a saint (more like angel, but-). "I don't think he meant it like that." You stared at him for a few seconds, then reddened, shaking your head profusely. You saw Chara stiffen at the implication.

"No way! He's kind of cute but not like that!" You hurriedly explained. And it's true. This old-age demon is awkward, in the best way. Even in your first month, you are certain that he has no brain-to-mouth filter once he opened up about anime.

"So, why is it that you asked?" Solomon simply smiled at your poor attempt of casual talk.

"I do need something TSL related that he doesn't have. Do you have anything?" You asked innocently, crossing your fingers. You're sure he has something...

And... he nodded! YES! "I do. " Cyan light flashed in front of him, and there laid a wing pendant in chrome dangling from a chain. Chara's voice became shrill in excitement.

"It's the wing pendant, platinum version! I would kill to have that! That belongs to the Lord of Corruption and is incredibly legendary..." She groaned, hands buried on her face. "Why can't I take it as my own?!"

"Why would you need it?" Solomon asked, dangling the pendant precariously close to your face, which you pulled away from.

"Right, um... I need to borrow something of Levi's that's incredibly important, so maybe using something he likes will help me?" You said, hoping he took your made-up explanation.

Solomon smiled, not particularly wicked, but not nice either. "I see. You're using this as bait then, I assume?" Well, no, but I suppose you can think of it that way. You nodded.

He hands me the pendant."Here you go. Tell me what happens after that, okay?" He smiled, then walked off with Simeon, who watched our entire exchange.

You finger the pendant, tracing its beautifully designed wing shape. You then slipped it into one of your backpack's inner pocket. You'll be damned if you lost this.

* 4:12 PM | LEVI'S ROOM *

You rapped the door 3 times, with Mammon on your tail, even though I didn't ask him to come. It opens, and a seat has already been prepared for me, with Levi opposite of it. He looks serious, but at the same time, wanted to laugh.
