Enelya noticed the young man fall asleep, and smiled. This would be a good chance to sneak away. Sure, he was alright, but they had gotten off at the wrong start, and Enelya wasn't exactly socialable. The bird still upon her finger, Enelya got up, and started to walk towards to the woods. Maybe she would get some peace and quiet there... And have a chat with a nice racoon or something. She wished Paul sweet dreams, and headed out.

Hey, moron.

No response. Except some snores.

Moron..?

Snores.

.........Hmm.. I wonder if I can do this without waking him up.. it's gonna take A LOT of skill.. carefully... carefully... carefully..

Corona took control of Paul's mind without waking him up. His eyes opened and he stood up, looking around and stretching a little. While Paul's mind was resting, his body wasn't. Corona would have to explain tomorrow when Paul woke up as to why he was body was so weak while his mind was wide awake.

Corona looked in the direction that Enelya went and decided to follow her. Why, you ask? Well.. why not?

Enelya continued into the forest, and came upon a familiar tree. She ran her hand over the bark with a melancholy smile. She whispered to the tree. and found an indention from where Kotah had practiced his needles upon it. She sat at the base of the tree, and crossed her legs, and closed her eyes. She hummed slightly.. And started to meditate, becoming one with Nature. She hadn't spoken to her in a long, long time, and felt a bit out of touch. Perhaps this would help.

Corona jumped up into one of the nearby trees when he finally caught up to Enelya. He watched her from behind one of the branches, quite confident in his stealth.

Her attunement with nature is phenomenal.. especially for a human, and especially especially for her age. It's a shame humans don't even live past a century. Unless.. she isn't human?

Corona began to wonder if he really was hidden from her. If she really had as great an attunement with nature as he believed, she would know where he is instantly. He didn't even bother to try and hide himself better.

Suddenly, the trees began to whisper to Enelya, and she grinned. Indeed, she knew exactly where Paul was. She let him think that he was hidden however, until she was ready to start another conversation. Enelya took a deep breath, and stopped her humming. She raised her right hand, which caused a tree brach, more specifically the one belonging to the tree Paul thought he was hiding behind, and it wrapped itself around Paul's body.

Enelya stood, and the branch brought him to her. However it wasn't very tight, and if he chose to do so, he could slip out of it. It was all in Enelya's good fun. She opened her eyes, and smiled. "Hello Paul." Though she started to look into his eyes, and saw them different. "Or... Corona?"

While he saw an opening to possibly escape, Corona decided to let Enelya have her fun. He sort of expected it, anyways, and didn't want to tire out Paul's body too much.

"You are quite observant, and are correct in your conclusion." He smiled at her. "I apologize for spying, I was merely curious of your abilities."

Enelya shook her head and laughed a little. She pointed her finger upwards, and pointed to the trees above her. "They told me." Her eyes then followed her finger, and she winked at them. Then, her eyes went back to Paul's face, being controlled by Corona... At least thats how she thought it worked? She gave him a small smile, and shrugged. "Does Paul mind you using his body? Or is he in there and... Oh, I'm not really sure how a split personality works, I'm afraid."

He looked up with an odd face, trying to think of how to explain it to her. He wasn't about to reveal what he truly was - for he had decided to let Paul be the one to tell people - but he figured he could be vague with his answer like he always was.

"Paul fell asleep and I decided to take control. His mind is still sleeping as we speak, so unless he wakes up during this conversation, he would have no memory of this tomorrow. But, while he is sleeping right now, his body isn't. It'll give him a bit of an awkward feeling of hyperness and exhaustion at the same time."

Enelya smiled slightly, realizing what Corona was doing. She nodded, and bit her lip. "Ah, I see." She figured that was all she was going to get out of him, and decided not to press the subject further... But she was devilishly curious. She looked up, and reached out to touch his face, but then retracted her hand again... She wasn't sure how open to the touch of others Corona was... And didn't want to invade his space... She had that problem sometimes.

She put her hand back in her lap, and with the other, played with a flower. "Umm Corona? Isn't that a little unfair to Paul though? Like... Do you two have a happy medium where you can do as you please... And he as well? I mean... You could go and murder people, and then Paul wouldn't know anything about it... And... It's so confusing to me... Forgive me and my curious nature." She looked down, and blushed.

"I am his friend yet also his mentor. While he doesn't always like my actions, he deals with it and sometimes realizes that what I do is for the better. In this case, it is merely out of boredom and curiosity. I would never harm another person for no reason, however. I have no reason to do such things. In addition, it isn't very often I do things without him knowing. This is the first time in a while. And usually when I do, I fill him in as to what has happened. On the same coin, I do not need nearly as much sleep as he does. I generally get around 8 hours of sleep per week, and will often do so when he is sleeping or otherwise busy with something and will not notice my absence."

He smiled at her. "Does that satisfy your curiosity?"
