She smiled with a slight blush, "Well, I hope we have enough then..."

"Oh don't worry, I have okay self control. I can usually stop myself if I need to." He grinned shyly as he went and sat at the table, just as Rachel emerged from the bathroom in her night gown and with her long red hair cascading down and over her shoulders.

Cassandra sat down with him, smiling at her aunt as she joined, then held her hands in front of her, about to pray, out of habit, before blushing deeply, "Um... I..." She fumbled over words, "I guess it would be weird to pray to you..."

Angeles laughed nervously, "Y-Yes... What do you usually pray for...?"

She thought for a second before shaking her head, "N-Nothing important, really..." She said, an obvious lie

"If it's important enough to say in a prayer, why not speak it directly to me...?" He smiles. "I don't bite."

She blushed furiously, "Well, um... Th-thank you for... For guiding me through life." She said, plucking the tiniest part of her usual prayer out. "The rest is... wrong, I think..."

Angeles smiled softly. "Well, thank you for the thanks, but I can hardly take credit for such a thing. I haven't really had interaction with you until now, I don't think..."

She bit her lip delicately, looking at her hands "I guess... I don't really know what to pray for then..."

"Well, maybe you don't have to pray for anything anymore. Maybe everything in your life is finally in place." He said as he and Rachel began eating.

She frowned, not sure how to take in what he was saying, "Do you not pray..? To the goddesses?"

"Of course not! They may be goddesses, but they are only our rulers. Think of them more like queens than they are goddesses. Lacrimosa is our version of Queen Victoria."

"But... Don't they help you? Do they love you?"

"Well yes they love us, we are their people. Queen Victoria loves you and she helps you. Lacrimosa is no different."

She thought for a moment before nodding, "I guess... I guess I can just talk to them then..." She said shyly before finally digging into her food

Angeles smiled softly, as he had already finished his food and was going for seconds. Rachel stared at him in awe. "You have quite the appetite don't you, Mr. Angeles?"
He quickly blushed and looked away from her, nodding shyly.

Rachel looked at her, eyeing the girl. "Oh yeah? And who might that be?"

She laughed again cutely and took another bite so she could avoid answering

Rachel chuckled as Angeles sat down with his second full plate, beginning to eat quickly. "I don't think I'll ever get tired of human food." He chuckled. "I'll have to thank Lizzy for introducing it to me so long ago."
Rachel looked at him with interest. "Lizzy?"
He nodded. "A friend I had a long time ago. The first human I ever really interacted with, actually."

For some odd reason, her chest ached with an odd emotion she couldn't place, but she feigned polite interest, "what was she like?" She asked, putting down her utensil after only eating half of her food

"She was the sweetest, kindest person. I'd known her since she was a little girl, she caught me sleeping in a tree near a lake that she visited. Her family owned a house near it and they visited every Summer, but I didn't know that."
Rachel furrowed her brow but remained quiet.

She looked down again, feeling foolish, "oh, I'm sorry..."

"Don't be. She's been gone for a long time now." Angeles laughed nervously. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to put a damper on the mood..."
"It's quite alright." Rachel said thr ok ugh clenched teeth, going to take her empty plate into the kitchen.

Cassandra watched her, noticing the strained speech as she got up to help her aunt. "I'm sure she was a good friend, that you still remember her so well..."

"She was the best and only real friend I've ever had. We spent every Summer together until she was twenty, then she went away and got married. She never came back to the lake house."

She nodded, doing her best to look sad for him, "hopefully she is happy in her marriage, at least..."

"She was happy, I believe... She and her husband really loved each other. They were the best human couple I had ever laid my eyes on."
