Lily's clever, she'd figure it out! Plus the idea motivates her more to try and get strong enough to carry him, whether he's asleep or hurt.
She opted instead to let out a small laugh, letting him move her hands as he pleased. "Only for a moment, to not completely blind ourselves." She hummed, following him to the crosswalk. "Besides, I like a challenge." She teased with a grin.
She did get her phone out though to check her map, humming as she double checked their path, nodding to herself. No getting lost today!
After spending the morning doing research on places in Linkon City that offer milk tea, Lily finally found a place that seemed like it would be a nice place to visit and had the coffee milk tea that Xavier mentioned. Plus it wasn't far from a few good places to eat so they'd have options based on what they were feeling up to without having to go all the way across town. Perfect.
Lily finally sent Xavier a text in the late morning.
'I found a place that has that coffee milk tea you mentioned! And it has really good reviews.'
After a moment of thought, she sent another text as well.
'And thank you for walking me home last night. I really appreciated it. It was nice, looking at the stars with you.'
If not for the sporadic texts, Xavier would still be asleep. Outside the birds that often bickered over his balcony were squawking at a volume loudly. The combination of factors is enough to stir him, just barely. He knows its her before having to unlock his phone.
↪[ Audio: I'm awake. I'm up. I'm coming. ]
↪[ It was nice. Let's do it again sometime ]
In a flash he rinses off, takes care of basic hygiene, and is donning a favored hoodie in spite of the weather.
By the time he gets downstairs, he's already rubbing his eyes again as he knocks on the door.
Lily was caught off guard for just a moment at his attempt to imitate her, but she was quick to start giggling, elbowing him. Though she ended up leaning against him again for support through her laughter that she tried to keep under wraps to not draw too much attention to them.
"Oh shut up." She snorted, shaking her head. "Besides I'd be more upset about missing an episode of a TV show than I would be some celebrity news." She added playfully, beaming up at him.

I got myself one of those little fake jellyfish lamps that changes color, and it is downright hypnotic-
"Right now?" She echoed, even as she was already shaking her head. "No, I don't feel lonely right now. Not anymore."
When she could finally see their apartment complex just a few blocks away, she stood up a little straighter. They're almost home, then she can finally give in to her fatigue. However despite trying to keep herself coherent a little while longer, she made no effort to pull herself away from Xavier.
She couldn't help but chuckle softly at Xavier's answer, figuring that she shouldn't have expected anything else from him. "Truly, the perfect Hunter." She teased affectionately, giving him just the tiniest of nudges. "I suppose I can't argue that answer though, so your turn."

Normally, Lily tries to be fully aware of her surroundings. Working as a Hunter means she shouldn't let her guard down, especially when by herself. Who knows what threats are just waiting for a chance to strike, after all?
Though normally, Lily doesn't have to resort to late night walks to try and clear her mind so that she can sleep.
Suddenly hearing a voice nearby startles her out of her own thoughts, immediately setting her on alert. Her head whipped around towards the source, her posture tense and ready for a fight. Once she finally recognized Xavier, she let out a slow breath that ended in a sheepish laugh.
"Xavier!" She half-greeted, half-scolded.
Once she finally processed his warning, she offered what she hoped came across as a reassuring smile. "I know, I know. But I'm a big girl, I can handle going for a little starlit walk before bed." She teased, running her fingers through her hair in an attempt to calm herself down further so her heart wasn't pounding so hard in her chest.
"What about you? You're out rather late too."
Lily thanked him for holding the doors for her, her shoulders relaxing just a little more at the familiar scent of the flowers that led to their complex.
"That would be nice..." She agreed quietly, covering her mouth to muffle a yawn as she walked into the elevator, selecting their floors. Honestly, she'd be more than happy if her dreams were just an extension of their time together this evening, to enjoy his company. Though, that's a thought she'll keep to herself for the time being.
"Let me know what you decide, and I'll see where we can go for it." She offered, giving him a soft smile. "We might as well get something to eat while we're at it, too." She mused.

💖a hug!
Lily beamed as she met Jeremiah partway, wrapping her arms around him and playfully doing her best to squish him with the hug. She's more than happy to give her friends hugs when they ask!
Lily snorted and moved to pat his back instead when he came closer, giggling quietly at his dramatics.
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry for being such a cruel bodyguard and attacking you," she teased, not sounding the least bit apologetic, "we can go get you some hot chocolate, okay?"
She didn't mind his exaggeration, if only because it was so clearly over the top. That, and she'd never turn down an excuse for a hot drink.
Send ❄️ to throw a snowball at Lily!
Lily yelped in surprise at the sudden impact before turning to Rafayel, seeming almost offended for all of... two seconds.
A wide grin spread across her face as she leaned down to make a snowball of her own. "Are you sure you want to play this game~?" she asked playfully, glancing up at him from where her hands were making quick work of the snow.
🪦 EPIC: The Musical: Act One: The Underworld Saga sentence starters. Going by the exact lyrics for the most part unless I'm making it less lyric and more dialogue. Definitely change things to fit your muse's situation<3
The Underworld
"No matter what we hear: full speed ahead"
"Full speed ahead until we find the prophet."
"This land confuses your mind"
"All I hear are screams every time I dare to close my eyes"
"I no longer dream, only nightmares of those who've died"
"Nothing's what it seems"
"The past seems close behind"
"Five-hundred fifty-eight men who died under your command"
"Why would you let the cyclops live when ruthlessness is mercy?"
"I keep thinking of the infant from that night"
"That voice, it can't be!"
"When you come home I'll be waiting"
"Even if you're the last thing I see, I'll be waiting"
"I'm right here, mom. Can't you see?"
"I took too long, and ventured too far."
"I'll always love you, I'll stay in your heart"
"Your past is always close behind down in the Underworld"
No Longer You
"I am the prophet with the answers you seek"
"I see past and future running free"
"There is a world where I help you get home, but that's not a world I know"
"I see the sacrifice of man"
"I see portrayals of betrayal and a brother's final stand"
"I see you on the brink of death. I see you draw your final breath"
"I see a man who gets to make it home alive, but it's no longer you"
"This can't be!"
"We've suffered and sailed through the toughest of hells, now you tell us our effort's for nothing?"
"I see your palace covered in red."
"I see your wife with a man who is haunting, a man with a trail of bodies..."
Monster
"How has everything been turned against us?"
"How did suffering become so endless?"
"Do I need to change?"
"I'm surrounded by the souls of those I've lost."
"I'm the only one whose line I haven't crossed."
"What if the greatest threat we'll find across the sea... is me?"
"What if I'm the monster?"
"What if I'm in the wrong?"
"What if I'm the problem that's been hiding all along?"
"What if I'm the one who killed you every time I caved to guilt?"
"What if I've been far too kind to foes but a monster to ourselves?"
"If I became the monster and threw that guilt away, would that make us stronger?"
"And now no one dares to piss him off"
"Who would care if we're unjust?"
"Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves, and deep down I know this well."
"I lost my best friend. I lost my mentor, my mom."
"If we must sail through dangerous oceans and beaches, I'll go where Poseidon won't reach us"
"I'll become the monster. I will deal the blow"
"I'll become the monster like none they've ever known"
"So what if I'm the monster lurking deep below?"
"I must become the monster, and then we'll make it home"
“I look forward to it.” She hummed happily, holding the door open for him as they finally entered the complex, relieved by how cool it was inside compared to being outside.
She snorted at his reassurances regarding her likelihood of winning, leading the way to the elevator. “That’s fair, I suppose. What, do you think you’re at risk of falling asleep mid-race since you’re full and comfy?” She teased lightheartedly, some part of her hoping that he’s not that exhausted... But if he does manage to, she fully intends to let him get as much rest as possible.
