Lumiere & Lucretia Arc.

(POV: Lumiere)
"Hello there."
How exactly was I going to respond to her greetings.
"Hey," I said. Jeez, that's already a flop.
With a gentle smile, Lilith walked towards me. "Are you ready to head to the venue?" she asked.
Eagerly, I nodded in agreement. "Sounds good," I added.
We strolled down the lively night streets, illuminated by the vibrant glow of hanging lights, and then out of nowhere I wondered aloud.
"Why didn't you just wait for me at the venue? I could've flown there and met you, and then we'd have entered together."
While that was an important question, I only asked it was a little too quiet between us.
Lilith was a well mature woman, and as such was reserved.
It was likely that if I didn't start a discussion with her, then we'd be silent until we arrived at the venue.
Lilith chuckled softly, veiling a hint of exhaustion in her response.
