            good  lord   ,   not  again   —   you  never
            stop   ,   huh   ?   *   the  doctor  lets  out
            a  playful  sigh  while  eyeing  the  oldest
            drake   ,   arching  an  eyebrow   .   *   i
            have  no  clue   ,   samuel   .   what  is  it   ?

            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀well  —  tomorrow,  at  the  least.
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀which  is  why  i  didn't  have  the
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀time  to  convince  anyone  else..
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀trust  and  believe  when  i  say
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀you  were  the  second  person  i
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀came  to,  though.  nate  is  too
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀busy  living  his  normal,  boring
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀life.  *   momentous  silence
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀passed,  stuffing  the  air  with  its
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀depth.  almost  the  same  as 
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀that  smoke  if  he  didn't  throw
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀out  the  cigarette  not  even
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀being  put  to  use;  due  to  how
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀engaged  into  the  topic  he
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀currently  was.   *  forgot  to  tell
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀you  —  we'll  have  to  act  as  a
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀couple.  it  draws  less  attention..
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀do  you  have  any  objections  to
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀that,  mrs.  drake?   *   features
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀coil  into  a  slight  grin,  whilst
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀words  drew  out  in  a  playful
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀manner;  making  the  false
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀name  no  less  than  prominent.
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀he  was  going  to  have  a  little
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀too  much  fun  with  this;
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀especially  with  his  partner  who
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀didn't  seem  to  mind  being
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀roped  into  all  this.   *

            she  listened  the  way  he  attempted 
            to  reassure  her  and  the  female  gave
            him  a  nod   .   and   a  small  smile   ,   it
            didn't  take  a  lot  to  convince  her   .   
            mainly  due  to  the  childlike  glimpse 
            of  excitement  in  his  eyes   .    noticing
            the  way  he  talked  and  thought  about
            it  with  it   ,  just  made  her  accept  his 
            proposition  right  away   .   julia  was
            always  down  for  a  little  adventure
            and  since  if  it  was  to  help  sam   ,   
            she  would've  done  it  blindly   .   ❝
            you  can  count  me  in   .   plus   ——
            i've  never  went  to  italy   .   let's  hope
            it  won't  be  our  last  known  location   ,
            right   ,   sam    ?   ❞  .   the  doctor  then
            briefly  glanced  at  his  cigarette  and
            the  smoke  before  slightly  shaking  her
            head   ;   of  course  she  didn't  mind   .
            ❝   so   ——   when  are  we  leaving   ?  ❞

            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀lucky  for  you,  i've  got  all  of
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀that  covered.  even  someone
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀who  can  get  us  there;  and
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀hopefully  not  kill  us  along  the
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀way  —  trust  me,  i  never 
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀would've  asked  for  you  to
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀come  along  if  i  wasn't  at  least
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ninety  percent  sure  this  was
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀safe.   *    he  sends  the  girl  a
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀reassuring  enough  smile,
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀amongst  placing  a  lone
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀cigarette  between  parted  lips
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀and  letting  it  rest.  the  gleam
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀of  a  desk  light  illuminating
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀rough  features  whilst
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀mindlessly  letting  the  stick
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀move  to  the  side  of  his
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀mouth;  leaving  enough  room
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀to  add  on.   *   and  as  for  how 
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀the  whole  ❛   cursed   ❜  thing 
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀goes..  you're  the  archeologist

            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀who  dosen't  know  the  first
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀thing  about  that.  plus  —  i  don't

            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀buyer  have  all  the  karma  they
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀want.   *   shifting  his  form  to 
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀lean  on  the  armrest  of  the
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀chair,  a  lighter  was  brought 
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀into  vision  from  the
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀concealment  of  jacket  pockets;
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀before  coming  to  realization  of
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀where  exactly  he  was,  as  the
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀adventurer  would  suddenly
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀grow  timid  under  a  strong
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀gaze;  a  wide  -  eyed
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀expression  to  emphasize.  *
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀um..  you  don't  mind,  do  you?
            ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀i  can  take  this  outside.
