[video] open to both courts

[alikeness]

I'm looking for someone. [ no doubt, a tried and true phrase the lockets have played before. Connor tacks a piece of paper to the locket so that everyone can see his drawing of a demon. it's sketchy and messy, but a pretty good likeness considering he was being beaten up during his confrontation with it. guess he inherited one more thing from his father's side. ]

He's over seven feet tall and made completely out of stone. And he's mine. [ and by the look on his face and the tone of his voice, that clearly means MINE TO KILL >:[ !!!! but the sassmasters of eachdraidh are welcome to poke fun at him anyway. he lowers the paper, revealing the rest of him and the lovely decoration scheme caer scima's rocking. ] He'll try and kill you, but I don't have to really warn you guys about that, huh? From what I've heard of this place, that's what we're supposed to be doing.

[ killing each other!!! guess who hasn't been given the 'make love, not war' lecture of his life. there's no clear sign on his face that explains what he thinks of that exactly. He moves to turn off the locket and hesitates. ]

I want to know. [ how do I get out, who can I beat up right now, where can I find Angel -- ] Who's winning the war?

Did you just say he's--it's--yours?

[ Wow that is not terrifying in the least. ]

[alikeness]

[ kelsi, please!!! ]

Yeah, he's mine. [ TO KILL, says the brackets. ] From my world. Well, technically -- he's not really from mine, but he was there the last time I saw him.

[ pauses. He kind of squints at her, since Kelsi looks the farthest from someone trying to stake his kill. then again ]

You're not going after him, right? [ right ]

[playmakings]

[ oh my god this is not the conversation she was prepared to have. You see that deer in headlights look? It's real. ]

No! No, no no, I'm definitely not--He, um. He's someone precious to you, it's only fair he stays.. Yours...?

video; oh my god

[alikeness]

[ good, good, good, wait A SECOND ]

He's not precious to me. [ he doesn't like this assumption you've jumped to, kelsi. ] He's mine to stab. I'm the person who's going to kill him.

[smithwork]

You actually want to find that thing?

[ Sir, your priorities. :'| ]

video;

[alikeness]

[ look we don't all have adorable dragons to find?? ]

The faster I find him, the faster I put him down. [ even though, technically, he's not eager to see that stony face when he was thrown into a cement pillar last time.... ] It's better than letting him roam free, right?

[smithwork]

What did he do?

[ He doesn't look so scary now that a ??? fifteen/sixteen year old is all up in his monster biz. ]

video;

[alikeness]

[ excuse me, he's eighteen!!! ]

Killed people. [ it was very neat and ritualistic the first time ] The last time I saw him, he was in the middle of killing more people.

[ which is why he's trying to find him!! ]

[winterwork]

No offense, but that's not a very cute pet you've got there.

[Just being honest.]

[alikeness]

[ jack :| ]

It'd make things a whole lot easier if he was, but he's not. He's a demon. [ guys please!!! get with the program here ]

video;

[winterwork]

[Well, you said he was yours!!!]

So, what, is he a big bad or something? Causing havoc?

video;

[alikeness]

[ he didn't mean it in the adorable pet-having kind of way!!! ]

Yeah. [ DEMON!!! ] What, do demons not do that where you're from?

video.

[mdma]

[oh that's gross. is he really looking for that thing? has no one given him the run-down of how things work here?

still, she can't help but tease a little.]

Eugh. Is he your boyfriend?

video.

[alikeness]

[ o m g!!!! he just shoots her a grumpy look ]

No. [ guys don't make him regret drawing it ] More like a demon who's tried to kill me.

video.

[mdma]

Even worse.

[she crinkles her nose.]

Whatever's at home with you doesn't come here.

video.

[alikeness]

[ for a moment he looks faintly troubled, because that gets him to think of Angel. ]

[ why is he thinking of Angel. WHY ]

It doesn't matter. He's broken through dimensions before. This place can't be any different from Earth.

[herotypical]

Huh.

[ the locket's frame registers a tilt of her head. a wrinkle of her nose. ] Has anyone told your friend that he very probably has eczema?

[alikeness]

[ that's stone, he almost says before frowning. this is people being witty, isn't it ]

Dunno. Guess no one had the time to. Between getting killed and being sacrificed.

[herotypical]

I'm not really sure there's a difference between the two. [ getting killed and being sacrificed. but maybe that's the point -- only buffy's not so magnanimous to assume everyone else has her fantastic wit.

so, with a touch more seriousness: ] Looks kinda...demony. Unless you just really suck with the art skills.

Voice

[deadpoet]

Demon, is it? What did he do, piss in your soup?

[See, at least someone won't make fun of him for it.]

Voice

[alikeness]

[ god bless ]

He hurt someone I care about. [ darkly, then -- less darkly. ] And I think he's trying to start an apocalypse.

Voice

[deadpoet]

Another one of those? What's his name? I've had my hand in dealing with a handful of those before.

[It's tedious, but hey: Spike likes the world. He'd rather it not go ending on him.]

[gandere]

Oh, is that how it is? If something that is a creature belongs to us, we can declare ownership of them brazenly over this locket?

[ Even if she's being rude about it, the idea only cements in her head that she can do the same thing for a certain someone here. ]

I suppose in that we share a similar cause. I too have something that belongs to me that if let loose would kill everyone.

video;

[alikeness]

He doesn't belong to me. He's just mine to kill. [ because clearly, no one else can do it. except rin probably. she could do it. he squints at her. ]

What, are you some kind of demon summoner?

video;

[gandere]

[ Two can play at this squinting game. ]

Funny, I'm usually the one being accused of being demon-like, but in this situation you seem to think poorly of my familiar. What a terrible first impression.
