(I return)
(Yay! also my hand is kinda better. It's actually deeper than I originally thought as the wound continued deeper under the skin, but so far it's still not infected)
(oh jeez, well at least it's not infected)
(what happened to your hand?)
(long story short I ripped it open while saving beached aquatic animals and now I can barely move my thumb and I had to pull a huge splinter from it before I put on anti-bacterial stuff)
(oooh, that does sound painful. But apparently it was for a good cause, yeah?)
(yeah. only two fish and one crawdad died during the relocation process so yeah)
(nice ^^)
(speaking of aquatic animals I finally have a design for an ocean themed monster)
(nice! what's the name/look?)
(their name is Cassiel and this is their design https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sQNguqZ1HmqWD-HaElVQR2PHVtAELzKL/view?usp=sharing )
(eee that is cool XD I like the face and horns!)
(thanks ^^)
(omg my hand is sliced open at the palm and my mom still trusts me to do the dishes and handle knifes, which I almost managed to cut myself open again whoopsies. i'm just a hazard to myself lol)
(also Cassiel looks so freaking awesome)
(you need to stay away from sharp objects child)
(well guys I have a little more than an hour and them I gotta go for a while. Are we still waiting for Jen, or is there something we can do in their absence?)
(idk, I think we're a little stuck till Jensen gets back)
(Kay)
(yup)
(I'm so sorry guys! I got sidetracked)
Asura was tense all over, and every nerve in his body was screaming kill him, kill Blake. But he held back, and instead followed him inside silently.
(It's okay Jen! ^^ I'm just gonna drop this here and then run to class)
Mike's office looked like it doubled as a meeting room, with a large table ringed with chairs in the center of the room and the papery remnants of last weeks council still scattered across it. A large map of the country was pinned to the wall, with notes and updates added in red pen.
Mike turned on the coffee machine in the corner and sat everyone down near the end of the room opposite the door. Blake took off his coat and hung it over the back of his chair, then thoughtfully ran his hand over the table in front of him. A cup of tea, piping hot, appeared before him, and he took an appreciative sip.
"So," he said. "I suppose you're wondering why I'm being such a bother."
"I'm glad to see you're admitting it at least." Red mumbled. She had long since given up on seeing through the sunlight and just held onto the clothing of the nearest person to lead her around. She let her arm down and began opening her eyes, getting used to the indoor lighting.
"Yes, finding out why you showed up at an ungodly time of day would be great," Pluto grumbled, sitting down next to Red
Asura sat down as well, eyeing Blake's staff. "And why steal my staff, of all things? You can't even use it."
"Primarily to get your attention. I know you are–for reasons best known to yourself–keeping your daughter in the staff at the moment. You were hardly likely to attack me when I had her at my mercy. But, that's neither here nor there." He sat back and laced his fingers. "At the moment, I shouldn't even be here, so I'll make this quick. In exchange for my help with your plans, I need you to help me break a curse."
"A curse?" Pluto asked. "If you're a god, why do you need our help breaking some curse?"
"The trouble is, the curse was administered by a goddess, only slightly less powerful than me. She decided that I was disobeying divine law recently, and banished me from this planet. Now, she's not really powerful enough to do that, so I am able to briefly and partially manifest here from time to time. But it's becoming very annoying, and I have work to do here. As powerful visitors from another dimension, you lot have the ability to aid me. And I, for one, am quite interested in you. Inter-dimensional politics are a hobby of mine, and I want to know what would happen if Lucifer fell from power."
"I know the feeling," Asura grumbled, shifting uncomfortably. "Lucifer did the same thing to me a while back, so I've got a bit of experience in curses like these."
