It was the day after the two had decided to spend the night at Lavinia's. They both just ended up laying down until noon, since today was a vacation day. Onyx finally got up around 1 pm to make late lunch for the both of them, making sure the blinds were closed.

While she was making something from a random box she found, there was a knock at the door. She ran to the closet while Lavinia went to the door, pretending she had been up for hours. It turned out to be Andrea congratulating her on completing the solar system and volunteering to help creating life on Earth.

Apparently, her husband, Abner, was on the construction team and had told her about the plan to make life on Earth. She insisted that she had plenty of ideas on what they could put on the blue marble. Lavinia declined her offer respectfully, then ushered her out the door politely.

Onyx grumbled while getting out of the closet. It wasn't difficult to leave the closet, but it was difficult for her to listen to Andrea. For some reason she had found the woman extremely annoying.

The food had finished cooking, so she went over to turn the stove off. Lavinia apologized, "Sorry, she was just-"
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuqAe10RL1
Onyx cut her off, "I know, it's fine. If you want to do it with her instead, you can."
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepciosFBwA
Lavinia poured her a bowl of the food and handed it to her. She took Onyx's hand and rolled Onyx's sleeve down. Lavinia pointed to her wrist while speaking, "See? You wrote down to come over to work on it with me. I promised and to be fully honest, I'd rather have you work with me than anyone else."
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXaf2ccQ8Q
She grabbed a bowl of food for herself while Onyx rolled her sleeve back down. They ate on the couch, talking about what they'd been doing for the past few days. Lavinia had been either working or cleaning and had been forgetting to eat. Onyx had been making what she called gems.

After they finished eating, they started coming up with ideas for life. Onyx took out a piece of paper and drew sketches of four people, two women and two men. Lavinia asked, "Will we make Gods on Earth?"
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xj9JNuVzF
Onyx shook her head, "No, these will be like us, but they won't live forever. At most, they will live to 150 years, but many of them will barely make it past 100 years old."

Lavinia wrote that down, analyzing what features they would have and asking about them. Once she had wrote down everything she needed, she wondered, "Do you think we could let them make things? I'm tired of thinking of things to put on there."
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6zlYoxb2Z
Onyx nodded, "That's actually a really good idea." She watched as Lavinia wrote more information down, then realized that Void would be over for one of her daily chats soon.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf30gPWFJR8
"You okay, Nyx?" Lavinia asked.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe1Clb9Ch2
Onyx confirmed, "Yeah, I am. Void's going to be over, so I need to go home. I'll be back at six to make sure you eat and return this." She plucked the other woman's sweater off the ground, then put it on. After, she ran out the door and flew as fast as she could to her house.

Her wings fluttered as fast as she could make them, trying to make it seem like she had been there all day. She reached her house and unlocked the door. In the few minutes she had, she made a couple cups of tea and quickly made some pastries before there was a knock on her door.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJr5Tcbd8wE
Before going to the door, she realized she was still wearing Lavinia's sweater. Panicking, she threw it into the open door of her room, then shut every door in the house. She fixed the shirt underneath it, then went to open the door.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLEoDlUR4Q
Outside was a ten-foot tall, black haired, purple eyed woman, wearing a long light purple dress with yellow flowers adorning her hair. Void ducked her head to get in, making sure she didn't hit her head on the door frame. One of her flowers fell out, gracefully landing on the floor while a new one grew to replace it.

She looked around, then spoke, "Well, you've surely decorated since I last saw you." The last time she had been over was last week at the exact same time. The Gods had found out she had a schedule that repeated every week, so they found out when to ask for things, when she was busy, and which day they were going to be visited.

Void sat down on the couch, grabbing a cup of tea. She asked, "So, first off, how are you? Has anything interesting been going on?"
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjo4TQGQk1U
Picking up a cup of tea too, Onyx replied, "I'm feeling pretty good, I don't have anything to complain about. Lavinia and I are making things for the solar system, which we finished yesterday."
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jCj1WL9eh
They talked for an hour, discussing everything that came to their minds before Void checked the time. She exclaimed, "It's been an hour already! I need to go check on Abner. Goodbye for now, Onyx. See you later!"
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAS7BrAVht
Onyx replied, "Bye, Void." She watched as Void leapt into the air, flying with wings of an albatross, speeding away.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprHXMgNNfP
Once she was out of sight, Onyx rushed to her room to grab the sweater. She picked it up off the floor, then put it on so she wouldn't forget it. When she looked at the clock, she realized it was only five.

Last night, she didn't sleep very well, so she went to her room. She pretended Lavinia was there while she hid in the sweater. Soon, she was finally sleeping after what seemed like centuries.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEx4FBj68zY
An hour later, she awoke from feeling someone poke her arm. Her eyes opened and she saw Lavinia towering over her. She stood up and let herself adjust to waking up, then took the sweater off and gave it to her, a little disappointed she had to give it back.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hQZSeLHlB
Lavinia handed her a box of beef stroganoff, watching as she made the meal, still half asleep. They talked together while it was cooking, making jokes and talking about what they thought of putting on Earth.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEnp0n8TeJ
Once Onyx had finished cooking, she scooped some stroganoff into a bowl and handed it to Lavinia, then got one for herself. They sat on the couch together, not even talking.
163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyCwsPPs9n
Onyx rested her head on Lavinia's side, falling asleep in the middle of her meal. Lavinia wrapped an arm around her, just spacing out while she fell asleep.
