Nikolai
We are only haunted by the things we refuse to accept
-Bridgett Devoue
It takes a second for the name to register, for the title and stories to be processed. And when it does? Nikolai just blinks and gives a sharp nod. "I see." Both his face and voice come up blank while internally the young Ascended has descended into full panic. The Flood. Of course it's the Flood. Who else could I possibly run into tonight? Wait. Since when is the Flood a gangster? -Bridgett Devoue
After an awkward second, Nikolai gains some manner of control of himself. Enough to answer at least. "I'm Nikolai. Hi...uh...nice to meet you? Sir?" Fuck. Is he going to kill me? Wait. Isn't he married to Nate?! That thought has a glint of panic entering his eyes. "Nate's not here right now...is he?" The question is hushed as Nikolai eyes their surroundings with clear concern.
Resilience is born even when we feel like we are dying
