Patient....he'd been patient for too long. Not everyone would agree with or desire to join the organization, many actually laughed at the idea of a group that focused on peace, and he could understand.....the existence he lead had not always been a peace one. And it was to those roots he now returned, gathering a small but powerful army, to retrieve who had been taken.
A woman and a glowing mass of light and emotion are preparing as well, the only thing they didn't plan on bringing along was Mercy.
♡
A demon and a vampire sit in a coffee shop...the demon is filled with guilt, what occurred isn't his fault, but it doesn't stop the apologies. There's a contract to sever their acquaintanceship on the table next to a bagel and a iced latte, the vampire pushed it back to the demon, they don't want to be rid of him....they want his help. Given the circumstances, he's happy to do it for free.
♧
A young man is packing a bag in a room he's finally growing comfortable in, a couple posters on the wall, a plant or two growing near the window. He's not leaving permanently, but he is leaving soon.....a friend of his was in distress, and he wasn't going to leave him alone. He doesn't notice the figure standing in the doorway, the reason he had this room in the first place.

" have everything you need, boss? " " once again Ace, yes, I have everything " they were sat at a table, having tea with an older looking woman, the latter stared at her own cup of tea with a mix of fury and dread. Once again, it had occurred without fault from her end, and yet she blamed herself regardless " ......we'll get them back, ma'am " " .....I'll believe it when I see it "
| .....they remind me of her, sometimes |
Life tilted their head
+ ....Muirne? +
They nodded
| .....half my height and she lived twice as long |
They chuckled, theres was definitely a story behind that.
*definately sounds like it*
*there was a small smile on their face. Seems with the calm atmosphere they've mananged to find their safe space*
.....Deirdre?
|......yes?|
Would you like to tell this one?
| ....perhaps |
*the narrator had somehow forgotten that this manifestation of death could pick up on the 4th wall chatter. Beyond the veil, there is an unseen listener while the doctor sleeps*
| .....once upon a time, in a land now changed.....there was a girl. From birth she was an odd child, her body held together by string, her heart nearly falling out of her chest. Despite all odds, she grew into a woman...a strange woman, with strange ways. A healer, a midwife, a devotee of the dead, a student of land and the skies.......beloved by her village, even if she didnt notice. She went from being the youngest sibling to being the middle most.....and then the eldest, a responsibility she undertook without delay. The child that arrived after her was very small in stature, but her personality and care were quite large indeed, she often joked her elder sister stole all the height there was to be had |
They couldnt help a smile
(Tw: alluding to aortic dissection, drowning, child loss, and death)
*there was quiet, and then their hand was carefully held close to the sleeping doctor's chest, like they were holding someone small*
They watched quietly, feeling that same pull in their chest once more. They didn't dare to move though, not wishing to disturb their slumber. Life moved closer and carefully lowered death's hood, kissing the top of their head.
+ ....didnt do too bad then? +
They smiled a little
| i didnt explode in my grave, so no |
*the soft smile hadn't left their face and they curled up with said hand, giving a quiet hum of contentment as they stroked the top of it gently*
Their fingers twitched ever so slightly, their smile growing a tad nervous.
Life chuckled
+ sticky situation there, eh? +
| Éist do bhéal |
*they kept stroking, seeming to be trying to comb through someone's hair gently. It didn't hurt of course, though Isa didn't have their gloves on either, so their short and blunt nails probably weren't helping this situation*
It only took a moment before a few bubbly giggles, they put their free hand over their mouth to stifle it, not wanting to wake them
*they continued this for a little while, gently shushing the hand like they were shushing a baby to sleep, whispering the most affectionate of reasurances before seeming to fall deeper into sleep, relaxing. The stroking stopping, but the hand still cuddled close*
They managed to compose themself, trying to use their free hand to rub the back of the trapped one to get rid of any lingering sensation.
+ well, that was very sweet +
| tell no one that happens |
+ noted +
*they snuggled in. Whatever they were dreaming about, it at least seems pleasant in large part to the boney teddybear(hand) they held so closely. It was about an hour or so before they eventually showed signs of waking*
Death decided to pop the hand off for now, taking a moment to stretch and have some tea with Life. They were enjoying one of the biscuits when they noticed them stirring.
*they slowly stirred, giving a yawn as they held the hand close..wait, what were they holding? They squinted their eyes open. They blinked before giving a yelp, not yet recalling who's hand this was*
The hand gave them a wave as Death set their cup down
| it's alright, dear |
+ you kinda hand-napped them, lovey +
*stunned a moment they blink, waving back at the dismembered hand in their bewilderment* ..oh. Oh, oh dear!
*they flushed in embarassment at this realization as they held the hand carefully, sitting themself up with their free arm*
Apologies, boss. I, did not mean to disarm you
+ to be fair, they were attached to it for majority of the time +
Which meant they hadn't left their side for a moment, they still hadn't in all honesty.
| its quite alright. I'm just glad you got some rest |
*they thought about that, looking to them. They gave a soft smile, visiably touched*
..thank you. Both of you.. I know that was most probably quite awkward
Death shook their head
| not at all, dear |
+ it was a bit of a ticklish situation for a moment there though +
Life grinned, death shot them a look
*they looked between the two, tilting their head*
Oh? Did I miss something?
+ Earlier on when you were holding their hand, you were having quite the dream+
Death put their face in their other hand
*they thought, looking confused..they thought about what they remembered about their dream..the way they were cradling their hand by time they woke up. Still was, for the most part*
......*their eyes widened and their flush deepened, sitting up straight as they handed the detatched hand over to the robed figure* My apologies. Did I do anything untoward? Aside from the obvious?
*being that they kept their hand prisoner*
Death retrieved their hand, wiggling their fingers a bit as they popped it back on
+ i wouldnt say untoward. You were just stroking the top of it +
Life smiled, continuing
+ if you recall the Adventure you had on the way to retrieve sublime, then you may understand the predicament +
*they blinked. How would...oh. They smiled in realization, a bit of amusement, and a dash of apology*
Oh, I see *they chuckled* And they told you about that particular predicament, did they?
+ in the midst of being in it once more, by yours truly, yes. They happen to be rather fond of it +
Death rolled their eyes, cheeks flushed as they pulled their hood back up
*they hid a giggle*
Ah. That is really quite sweet. Not something to be embarrassed of, boss
*they smiled genuinely, any embarrased flush now gone*
| yeah yeah |
They took a sip of tea. There was another cup ready for isa, and some treats as well
*they looked over, putting a hand over their stomach to try and hide the way it growled. They weren't sure and they didn't want to impose*
..is there anyone else joining?
+ nope. Its for you, hun, and you can have as much as youd like +
*they paused before giving them a grateful smile* Thank you, Mx. Life
*they got closer, carefully retrieving one of the treats before taking a careful bite of it. It was gone immediately after. Seems instinct overrode practiced politeness in that moment*
They could inhale the whole tray and the two wouldnt judge, there was plenty more to be had.
+ do you have a preference for meals? I can set up a schedule for certain times and such to ease into things. You can have something whenever youd like of course, might be less overwhelming that way though +
*they blink before swallowing the treat*
I... That is alright, that isn't necessary. You've done far more than enough for me as is, which I am positive hasn't been easy or pleasant *they don't remember most of it, they aren't even completely sure how they got them out in the first place*
I am grateful, truely. But I wouldn't want to add on to it
+ it wouldnt be a trouble at all, love. We want to get you home as soon as possible....but you also need some time to heal, physically and mentally +
Even if the agency had reversed any physical damages /theyd/ caused, there was more than likely some prior things they hadn't quite healed from yet.
|....we're not trying to trap you here, but you know as well as we do that you'll just hop right back into work and chaos|
*they were quiet begore they rubbed their arm a bit slef conciously, accidentally touching the i.v. line and shuddered, squeezing their eyes shut a moment before mentally coming back. Their fingers noticably itched to just rip it out, but they barely held themself at bay by busying their hand with another treat, mostly for the sakes of the two beings in front of them*
....alright, you're right. And I know you aren't trying to trap me here..
Death glanced at the IV
| we can remove that now. It was put in place to ensure you wouldnt get dehydrated. |
Life nodded, carefully placing their hands on the doctors arm, it was out before they could feel a thing.
*they take a breath when they realized it was gone, opening and closing their hand a moment, visibly far more at ease*
Thank you *their deathgrip on the treat relaxed..It won't go to waste, but poor treat*
+ sorry for the discomfort, dear +
They pulled a notepad out of seemingly thin air
+ so! About those meal plans +
*they blink at the notepad*
It is alright.. *they thought* I am, not a particularly picky person. Anything would be nice
*they paused, amending their statement* Well, consumable for a human, at least. I cannot eat corrosive substances like my sibling can...heh *..they've missed them both* Do either of you know how they are?
| they're.....alright. the time disruption caused some memory problems around the center but people recognized that something was off, your lab has dissapeared but I believe the reversal should fix that as well as the memories. They both miss you terribly.....we'll try to schedule a visit |
*they paused before nodding, genuinely just trying not to start crying again*
I'd like that..I'm just glad they're okay.. the last time something happened, my son... *they put a hand to the side of their head..honestly, any time they weren't able to be around, or down for the count somewhere something went to shit, they think*
..is Clarence alright, do you know?
They were both quiet for a moment.
+ ....he's alive +
Not the answer they're looking for, but true nonetheless
*well, the sudden silence and far from descriptive answer did not inspire much hope, mostly just more anxiety*
....alive and.. is he alone? Is he safe?
| his dad and sibling are taking him out for a ride to get some fresh air. He's not alone, he's very safe.....he's just worried |
*they nod slowly, taking a breath. He and Juniper are safe*
...he shouldn't be..i'm alright.. It's my job to worry about him and Ko.. not the other way around
+ kids are going to worry regardless. It comes with caring about someone +
*they are quiet a moment before nodding*
...do you know if Ko is alright? And if Juniper is safe?
The two nodded
| most of the creatures in your lab appeared within one of the daycare rooms, your sibling Cipher and Juniper retrieved the others |
*they appear more relaxed at the assurances. They trust everyone in the daycare. They feel badly for not being there though..they can't imagine what what the little ones feel, their home gone..possibly not even remembering why they were there.. Well, they can, but it just breaks their heart*
...can someone let them all know I am alright.. that I will be back soon? *soon may be a relative term, but they don't want them worrying. Their kids consumed by the unknown, or thinking they may simply be no more like Ruby and Future James did*
Death nodded
| we'll have sublime send word about it. Especially Juniper and quinn |
Seeing as theyd witnessed it all on the footage
Thank you...
*they had no clue, a bit perplexed* Are they alright? I, honestly thought they would have forgotten about me.. I disappeared before I could even take them on a proper date..figured they'd be angry with me, thought I'd have run off, if they hadn't already forgotten
*it was a thought that hurt, but it made sense to them, considering they themself have been a flight risk most of their life*

+ to be fair, they were attached to it for majority of the time +
Which meant they hadn't left their side for a moment, they still hadn't in all honesty.
| its quite alright. I'm just glad you got some rest |
*they thought about that, looking to them. They gave a soft smile, visiably touched*
..thank you. Both of you.. I know that was most probably quite awkward
Death shook their head
| not at all, dear |
+ it was a bit of a ticklish situation for a moment there though +
Life grinned, death shot them a look
*they looked between the two, tilting their head*
Oh? Did I miss something?
+ Earlier on when you were holding their hand, you were having quite the dream+
Death put their face in their other hand
*they thought, looking confused..they thought about what they remembered about their dream..the way they were cradling their hand by time they woke up. Still was, for the most part*
......*their eyes widened and their flush deepened, sitting up straight as they handed the detatched hand over to the robed figure* My apologies. Did I do anything untoward? Aside from the obvious?
*being that they kept their hand prisoner*
Death retrieved their hand, wiggling their fingers a bit as they popped it back on
+ i wouldnt say untoward. You were just stroking the top of it +
Life smiled, continuing
+ if you recall the Adventure you had on the way to retrieve sublime, then you may understand the predicament +
*they blinked. How would...oh. They smiled in realization, a bit of amusement, and a dash of apology*
Oh, I see *they chuckled* And they told you about that particular predicament, did they?
+ in the midst of being in it once more, by yours truly, yes. They happen to be rather fond of it +
Death rolled their eyes, cheeks flushed as they pulled their hood back up
*they hid a giggle*
Ah. That is really quite sweet. Not something to be embarrassed of, boss
*they smiled genuinely, any embarrased flush now gone*
| yeah yeah |
They took a sip of tea. There was another cup ready for isa, and some treats as well
*they looked over, putting a hand over their stomach to try and hide the way it growled. They weren't sure and they didn't want to impose*
..is there anyone else joining?
+ nope. Its for you, hun, and you can have as much as youd like +
*they paused before giving them a grateful smile* Thank you, Mx. Life
*they got closer, carefully retrieving one of the treats before taking a careful bite of it. It was gone immediately after. Seems instinct overrode practiced politeness in that moment*
They could inhale the whole tray and the two wouldnt judge, there was plenty more to be had.
+ do you have a preference for meals? I can set up a schedule for certain times and such to ease into things. You can have something whenever youd like of course, might be less overwhelming that way though +
*they blink before swallowing the treat*
I... That is alright, that isn't necessary. You've done far more than enough for me as is, which I am positive hasn't been easy or pleasant *they don't remember most of it, they aren't even completely sure how they got them out in the first place*
I am grateful, truely. But I wouldn't want to add on to it
+ it wouldnt be a trouble at all, love. We want to get you home as soon as possible....but you also need some time to heal, physically and mentally +
Even if the agency had reversed any physical damages /theyd/ caused, there was more than likely some prior things they hadn't quite healed from yet.
|....we're not trying to trap you here, but you know as well as we do that you'll just hop right back into work and chaos|
*they were quiet begore they rubbed their arm a bit slef conciously, accidentally touching the i.v. line and shuddered, squeezing their eyes shut a moment before mentally coming back. Their fingers noticably itched to just rip it out, but they barely held themself at bay by busying their hand with another treat, mostly for the sakes of the two beings in front of them*
....alright, you're right. And I know you aren't trying to trap me here..
Death glanced at the IV
| we can remove that now. It was put in place to ensure you wouldnt get dehydrated. |
Life nodded, carefully placing their hands on the doctors arm, it was out before they could feel a thing.
*they take a breath when they realized it was gone, opening and closing their hand a moment, visibly far more at ease*
Thank you *their deathgrip on the treat relaxed..It won't go to waste, but poor treat*
+ sorry for the discomfort, dear +
They pulled a notepad out of seemingly thin air
+ so! About those meal plans +
*they blink at the notepad*
It is alright.. *they thought* I am, not a particularly picky person. Anything would be nice
*they paused, amending their statement* Well, consumable for a human, at least. I cannot eat corrosive substances like my sibling can...heh *..they've missed them both* Do either of you know how they are?
| they're.....alright. the time disruption caused some memory problems around the center but people recognized that something was off, your lab has dissapeared but I believe the reversal should fix that as well as the memories. They both miss you terribly.....we'll try to schedule a visit |
*they paused before nodding, genuinely just trying not to start crying again*
I'd like that..I'm just glad they're okay.. the last time something happened, my son... *they put a hand to the side of their head..honestly, any time they weren't able to be around, or down for the count somewhere something went to shit, they think*
..is Clarence alright, do you know?
They were both quiet for a moment.
+ ....he's alive +
Not the answer they're looking for, but true nonetheless
*well, the sudden silence and far from descriptive answer did not inspire much hope, mostly just more anxiety*
....alive and.. is he alone? Is he safe?
| his dad and sibling are taking him out for a ride to get some fresh air. He's not alone, he's very safe.....he's just worried |
*they nod slowly, taking a breath. He and Juniper are safe*
...he shouldn't be..i'm alright.. It's my job to worry about him and Ko.. not the other way around
+ kids are going to worry regardless. It comes with caring about someone +
*they are quiet a moment before nodding*
...do you know if Ko is alright? And if Juniper is safe?

Patient....he'd been patient for too long. Not everyone would agree with or desire to join the organization, many actually laughed at the idea of a group that focused on peace, and he could understand.....the existence he lead had not always been a peace one. And it was to those roots he now returned, gathering a small but powerful army, to retrieve who had been taken.
A woman and a glowing mass of light and emotion are preparing as well, the only thing they didn't plan on bringing along was Mercy.
♡
A demon and a vampire sit in a coffee shop...the demon is filled with guilt, what occurred isn't his fault, but it doesn't stop the apologies. There's a contract to sever their acquaintanceship on the table next to a bagel and a iced latte, the vampire pushed it back to the demon, they don't want to be rid of him....they want his help. Given the circumstances, he's happy to do it for free.

A young man is packing a bag in a room he's finally growing comfortable in, a couple posters on the wall, a plant or two growing near the window. He's not leaving permanently, but he is leaving soon.....a friend of his was in distress, and he wasn't going to leave him alone. He doesn't notice the figure standing in the doorway, the reason he had this room in the first place.

" have everything you need, boss? " " once again Ace, yes, I have everything " they were sat at a table, having tea with an older looking woman, the latter stared at her own cup of tea with a mix of fury and dread. Once again, it had occurred without fault from her end, and yet she blamed herself regardless " ......we'll get them back, ma'am " " .....I'll believe it when I see it "
| .....they remind me of her, sometimes |
Life tilted their head
+ ....Muirne? +
They nodded
| .....half my height and she lived twice as long |
They chuckled, theres was definitely a story behind that.
*definately sounds like it*
*there was a small smile on their face. Seems with the calm atmosphere they've mananged to find their safe space*
.....Deirdre?
|......yes?|
Would you like to tell this one?
| ....perhaps |
*the narrator had somehow forgotten that this manifestation of death could pick up on the 4th wall chatter. Beyond the veil, there is an unseen listener while the doctor sleeps*
| .....once upon a time, in a land now changed.....there was a girl. From birth she was an odd child, her body held together by string, her heart nearly falling out of her chest. Despite all odds, she grew into a woman...a strange woman, with strange ways. A healer, a midwife, a devotee of the dead, a student of land and the skies.......beloved by her village, even if she didnt notice. She went from being the youngest sibling to being the middle most.....and then the eldest, a responsibility she undertook without delay. The child that arrived after her was very small in stature, but her personality and care were quite large indeed, she often joked her elder sister stole all the height there was to be had |
They couldnt help a smile
(Tw: alluding to aortic dissection, drowning, child loss, and death)
*there was quiet, and then their hand was carefully held close to the sleeping doctor's chest, like they were holding someone small*
They watched quietly, feeling that same pull in their chest once more. They didn't dare to move though, not wishing to disturb their slumber. Life moved closer and carefully lowered death's hood, kissing the top of their head.
+ ....didnt do too bad then? +
They smiled a little
| i didnt explode in my grave, so no |
*the soft smile hadn't left their face and they curled up with said hand, giving a quiet hum of contentment as they stroked the top of it gently*
Their fingers twitched ever so slightly, their smile growing a tad nervous.
Life chuckled
+ sticky situation there, eh? +
| Éist do bhéal |
*they kept stroking, seeming to be trying to comb through someone's hair gently. It didn't hurt of course, though Isa didn't have their gloves on either, so their short and blunt nails probably weren't helping this situation*
It only took a moment before a few bubbly giggles, they put their free hand over their mouth to stifle it, not wanting to wake them
*they continued this for a little while, gently shushing the hand like they were shushing a baby to sleep, whispering the most affectionate of reasurances before seeming to fall deeper into sleep, relaxing. The stroking stopping, but the hand still cuddled close*
They managed to compose themself, trying to use their free hand to rub the back of the trapped one to get rid of any lingering sensation.
+ well, that was very sweet +
| tell no one that happens |
+ noted +
*they snuggled in. Whatever they were dreaming about, it at least seems pleasant in large part to the boney teddybear(hand) they held so closely. It was about an hour or so before they eventually showed signs of waking*
Death decided to pop the hand off for now, taking a moment to stretch and have some tea with Life. They were enjoying one of the biscuits when they noticed them stirring.
*they slowly stirred, giving a yawn as they held the hand close..wait, what were they holding? They squinted their eyes open. They blinked before giving a yelp, not yet recalling who's hand this was*
The hand gave them a wave as Death set their cup down
| it's alright, dear |
+ you kinda hand-napped them, lovey +
*stunned a moment they blink, waving back at the dismembered hand in their bewilderment* ..oh. Oh, oh dear!
*they flushed in embarassment at this realization as they held the hand carefully, sitting themself up with their free arm*
Apologies, boss. I, did not mean to disarm you
+ to be fair, they were attached to it for majority of the time +
Which meant they hadn't left their side for a moment, they still hadn't in all honesty.

A healer, a midwife, a devotee of the dead, a student of land and the skies.......beloved by her village, even if she didnt notice. She went from being the youngest sibling to being the middle most.....and then the eldest, a responsibility she undertook without delay. The child that arrived after her was very small in stature, but her personality and care were quite large indeed, she often joked her elder sister stole all the height there was to be had |
They couldnt help a smile
(Tw: alluding to aortic dissection, drowning, child loss, and death)
*there was quiet, and then their hand was carefully held close to the sleeping doctor's chest, like they were holding someone small*
They watched quietly, feeling that same pull in their chest once more. They didn't dare to move though, not wishing to disturb their slumber. Life moved closer and carefully lowered death's hood, kissing the top of their head.
+ ....didnt do too bad then? +
They smiled a little
| i didnt explode in my grave, so no |
*the soft smile hadn't left their face and they curled up with said hand, giving a quiet hum of contentment as they stroked the top of it gently*
Their fingers twitched ever so slightly, their smile growing a tad nervous.
Life chuckled
+ sticky situation there, eh? +
| Éist do bhéal |
*they kept stroking, seeming to be trying to comb through someone's hair gently. It didn't hurt of course, though Isa didn't have their gloves on either, so their short and blunt nails probably weren't helping this situation*
It only took a moment before a few bubbly giggles, they put their free hand over their mouth to stifle it, not wanting to wake them
*they continued this for a little while, gently shushing the hand like they were shushing a baby to sleep, whispering the most affectionate of reasurances before seeming to fall deeper into sleep, relaxing. The stroking stopping, but the hand still cuddled close*
They managed to compose themself, trying to use their free hand to rub the back of the trapped one to get rid of any lingering sensation.
+ well, that was very sweet +
| tell no one that happens |
+ noted +
*they snuggled in. Whatever they were dreaming about, it at least seems pleasant in large part to the boney teddybear(hand) they held so closely. It was about an hour or so before they eventually showed signs of waking*
Death decided to pop the hand off for now, taking a moment to stretch and have some tea with Life. They were enjoying one of the biscuits when they noticed them stirring.
*they slowly stirred, giving a yawn as they held the hand close..wait, what were they holding? They squinted their eyes open. They blinked before giving a yelp, not yet recalling who's hand this was*
The hand gave them a wave as Death set their cup down
| it's alright, dear |
+ you kinda hand-napped them, lovey +
*stunned a moment they blink, waving back at the dismembered hand in their bewilderment* ..oh. Oh, oh dear!
*they flushed in embarassment at this realization as they held the hand carefully, sitting themself up with their free arm*
Apologies, boss. I, did not mean to disarm you
+ to be fair, they were attached to it for majority of the time +
Which meant they hadn't left their side for a moment, they still hadn't in all honesty.
| its quite alright. I'm just glad you got some rest |
*they thought about that, looking to them. They gave a soft smile, visiably touched*
..thank you. Both of you.. I know that was most probably quite awkward
Death shook their head
| not at all, dear |
+ it was a bit of a ticklish situation for a moment there though +
Life grinned, death shot them a look
*they looked between the two, tilting their head*
Oh? Did I miss something?
+ Earlier on when you were holding their hand, you were having quite the dream+
Death put their face in their other hand
*they thought, looking confused..they thought about what they remembered about their dream..the way they were cradling their hand by time they woke up. Still was, for the most part*
......*their eyes widened and their flush deepened, sitting up straight as they handed the detatched hand over to the robed figure* My apologies. Did I do anything untoward? Aside from the obvious?
*being that they kept their hand prisoner*
Death retrieved their hand, wiggling their fingers a bit as they popped it back on
+ i wouldnt say untoward. You were just stroking the top of it +
Life smiled, continuing
+ if you recall the Adventure you had on the way to retrieve sublime, then you may understand the predicament +
*they blinked. How would...oh. They smiled in realization, a bit of amusement, and a dash of apology*
Oh, I see *they chuckled* And they told you about that particular predicament, did they?
+ in the midst of being in it once more, by yours truly, yes. They happen to be rather fond of it +
Death rolled their eyes, cheeks flushed as they pulled their hood back up
*they hid a giggle*
Ah. That is really quite sweet. Not something to be embarrassed of, boss
*they smiled genuinely, any embarrased flush now gone*
| yeah yeah |
They took a sip of tea. There was another cup ready for isa, and some treats as well
*they looked over, putting a hand over their stomach to try and hide the way it growled. They weren't sure and they didn't want to impose*
..is there anyone else joining?
+ nope. Its for you, hun, and you can have as much as youd like +
*they paused before giving them a grateful smile* Thank you, Mx. Life
*they got closer, carefully retrieving one of the treats before taking a careful bite of it. It was gone immediately after. Seems instinct overrode practiced politeness in that moment*
They could inhale the whole tray and the two wouldnt judge, there was plenty more to be had.
+ do you have a preference for meals? I can set up a schedule for certain times and such to ease into things. You can have something whenever youd like of course, might be less overwhelming that way though +
*they blink before swallowing the treat*
I... That is alright, that isn't necessary. You've done far more than enough for me as is, which I am positive hasn't been easy or pleasant *they don't remember most of it, they aren't even completely sure how they got them out in the first place*
I am grateful, truely. But I wouldn't want to add on to it
+ it wouldnt be a trouble at all, love. We want to get you home as soon as possible....but you also need some time to heal, physically and mentally +
Even if the agency had reversed any physical damages /theyd/ caused, there was more than likely some prior things they hadn't quite healed from yet.
|....we're not trying to trap you here, but you know as well as we do that you'll just hop right back into work and chaos|
*they were quiet begore they rubbed their arm a bit slef conciously, accidentally touching the i.v. line and shuddered, squeezing their eyes shut a moment before mentally coming back. Their fingers noticably itched to just rip it out, but they barely held themself at bay by busying their hand with another treat, mostly for the sakes of the two beings in front of them*
....alright, you're right. And I know you aren't trying to trap me here..
Death glanced at the IV
| we can remove that now. It was put in place to ensure you wouldnt get dehydrated. |
Life nodded, carefully placing their hands on the doctors arm, it was out before they could feel a thing.
*they take a breath when they realized it was gone, opening and closing their hand a moment, visibly far more at ease*
Thank you *their deathgrip on the treat relaxed..It won't go to waste, but poor treat*
+ sorry for the discomfort, dear +
They pulled a notepad out of seemingly thin air
+ so! About those meal plans +
*they blink at the notepad*
It is alright.. *they thought* I am, not a particularly picky person. Anything would be nice
*they paused, amending their statement* Well, consumable for a human, at least. I cannot eat corrosive substances like my sibling can...heh *..they've missed them both* Do either of you know how they are?
| they're.....alright. the time disruption caused some memory problems around the center but people recognized that something was off, your lab has dissapeared but I believe the reversal should fix that as well as the memories. They both miss you terribly.....we'll try to schedule a visit |
*they paused before nodding, genuinely just trying not to start crying again*
I'd like that..I'm just glad they're okay.. the last time something happened, my son... *they put a hand to the side of their head..honestly, any time they weren't able to be around, or down for the count somewhere something went to shit, they think*
..is Clarence alright, do you know?

Patient....he'd been patient for too long. Not everyone would agree with or desire to join the organization, many actually laughed at the idea of a group that focused on peace, and he could understand.....the existence he lead had not always been a peace one. And it was to those roots he now returned, gathering a small but powerful army, to retrieve who had been taken.
A woman and a glowing mass of light and emotion are preparing as well, the only thing they didn't plan on bringing along was Mercy.

They nodded

They couldnt help a smile
(Tw: alluding to aortic dissection, drowning, child loss, and death)
*there was quiet, and then their hand was carefully held close to the sleeping doctor's chest, like they were holding someone small*
They watched quietly, feeling that same pull in their chest once more. They didn't dare to move though, not wishing to disturb their slumber. Life moved closer and carefully lowered death's hood, kissing the top of their head.
+ ....didnt do too bad then? +
They smiled a little
| i didnt explode in my grave, so no |
*the soft smile hadn't left their face and they curled up with said hand, giving a quiet hum of contentment as they stroked the top of it gently*
Their fingers twitched ever so slightly, their smile growing a tad nervous.
Life chuckled
+ sticky situation there, eh? +
| Éist do bhéal |
*they kept stroking, seeming to be trying to comb through someone's hair gently. It didn't hurt of course, though Isa didn't have their gloves on either, so their short and blunt nails probably weren't helping this situation*
It only took a moment before a few bubbly giggles, they put their free hand over their mouth to stifle it, not wanting to wake them
*they continued this for a little while, gently shushing the hand like they were shushing a baby to sleep, whispering the most affectionate of reasurances before seeming to fall deeper into sleep, relaxing. The stroking stopping, but the hand still cuddled close*
They managed to compose themself, trying to use their free hand to rub the back of the trapped one to get rid of any lingering sensation.
+ well, that was very sweet +
| tell no one that happens |
+ noted +
*they snuggled in. Whatever they were dreaming about, it at least seems pleasant in large part to the boney teddybear(hand) they held so closely. It was about an hour or so before they eventually showed signs of waking*
Death decided to pop the hand off for now, taking a moment to stretch and have some tea with Life. They were enjoying one of the biscuits when they noticed them stirring.
*they slowly stirred, giving a yawn as they held the hand close..wait, what were they holding? They squinted their eyes open. They blinked before giving a yelp, not yet recalling who's hand this was*
The hand gave them a wave as Death set their cup down
| it's alright, dear |
+ you kinda hand-napped them, lovey +
*stunned a moment they blink, waving back at the dismembered hand in their bewilderment* ..oh. Oh, oh dear!
*they flushed in embarassment at this realization as they held the hand carefully, sitting themself up with their free arm*
Apologies, boss. I, did not mean to disarm you
+ to be fair, they were attached to it for majority of the time +
Which meant they hadn't left their side for a moment, they still hadn't in all honesty.
| its quite alright. I'm just glad you got some rest |
*they thought about that, looking to them. They gave a soft smile, visiably touched*
..thank you. Both of you.. I know that was most probably quite awkward
Death shook their head
| not at all, dear |
+ it was a bit of a ticklish situation for a moment there though +
Life grinned, death shot them a look
*they looked between the two, tilting their head*
Oh? Did I miss something?
+ Earlier on when you were holding their hand, you were having quite the dream+
Death put their face in their other hand
*they thought, looking confused..they thought about what they remembered about their dream..the way they were cradling their hand by time they woke up. Still was, for the most part*
......*their eyes widened and their flush deepened, sitting up straight as they handed the detatched hand over to the robed figure* My apologies. Did I do anything untoward? Aside from the obvious?
*being that they kept their hand prisoner*
Death retrieved their hand, wiggling their fingers a bit as they popped it back on
+ i wouldnt say untoward. You were just stroking the top of it +
Life smiled, continuing
+ if you recall the Adventure you had on the way to retrieve sublime, then you may understand the predicament +
*they blinked. How would...oh. They smiled in realization, a bit of amusement, and a dash of apology*
Oh, I see *they chuckled* And they told you about that particular predicament, did they?
+ in the midst of being in it once more, by yours truly, yes. They happen to be rather fond of it +
Death rolled their eyes, cheeks flushed as they pulled their hood back up
*they hid a giggle*
Ah. That is really quite sweet. Not something to be embarrassed of, boss
*they smiled genuinely, any embarrased flush now gone*
| yeah yeah |
They took a sip of tea. There was another cup ready for isa, and some treats as well
*they looked over, putting a hand over their stomach to try and hide the way it growled. They weren't sure and they didn't want to impose*
..is there anyone else joining?
+ nope. Its for you, hun, and you can have as much as youd like +
*they paused before giving them a grateful smile* Thank you, Mx. Life
*they got closer, carefully retrieving one of the treats before taking a careful bite of it. It was gone immediately after. Seems instinct overrode practiced politeness in that moment*
They could inhale the whole tray and the two wouldnt judge, there was plenty more to be had.
+ do you have a preference for meals? I can set up a schedule for certain times and such to ease into things. You can have something whenever youd like of course, might be less overwhelming that way though +
*they blink before swallowing the treat*
I... That is alright, that isn't necessary. You've done far more than enough for me as is, which I am positive hasn't been easy or pleasant *they don't remember most of it, they aren't even completely sure how they got them out in the first place*
I am grateful, truely. But I wouldn't want to add on to it
+ it wouldnt be a trouble at all, love. We want to get you home as soon as possible....but you also need some time to heal, physically and mentally +
Even if the agency had reversed any physical damages /theyd/ caused, there was more than likely some prior things they hadn't quite healed from yet.
|....we're not trying to trap you here, but you know as well as we do that you'll just hop right back into work and chaos|
*they were quiet begore they rubbed their arm a bit slef conciously, accidentally touching the i.v. line and shuddered, squeezing their eyes shut a moment before mentally coming back. Their fingers noticably itched to just rip it out, but they barely held themself at bay by busying their hand with another treat, mostly for the sakes of the two beings in front of them*
....alright, you're right. And I know you aren't trying to trap me here..

A demon and a vampire sit in a coffee shop...the demon is filled with guilt, what occurred isn't his fault, but it doesn't stop the apologies. There's a contract to sever their acquaintanceship on the table next to a bagel and a iced latte, the vampire pushed it back to the demon, they don't want to be rid of him....they want his help. Given the circumstances, he's happy to do it for free.

A young man is packing a bag in a room he's finally growing comfortable in, a couple posters on the wall, a plant or two growing near the window. He's not leaving permanently, but he is leaving soon.....a friend of his was in distress, and he wasn't going to leave him alone. He doesn't notice the figure standing in the doorway, the reason he had this room in the first place.

" have everything you need, boss? " " once again Ace, yes, I have everything " they were sat at a table, having tea with an older looking woman, the latter stared at her own cup of tea with a mix of fury and dread. Once again, it had occurred without fault from her end, and yet she blamed herself regardless " ......we'll get them back, ma'am " " .....I'll believe it when I see it "
| .....they remind me of her, sometimes |
Life tilted their head
+ ....Muirne? +
They nodded
| .....half my height and she lived twice as long |
They chuckled, theres was definitely a story behind that.
*definately sounds like it*
*there was a small smile on their face. Seems with the calm atmosphere they've mananged to find their safe space*
.....Deirdre?
|......yes?|
Would you like to tell this one?
| ....perhaps |
*the narrator had somehow forgotten that this manifestation of death could pick up on the 4th wall chatter. Beyond the veil, there is an unseen listener while the doctor sleeps*
| .....once upon a time, in a land now changed.....there was a girl. From birth she was an odd child, her body held together by string, her heart nearly falling out of her chest. Despite all odds, she grew into a woman...a strange woman, with strange ways. A healer, a midwife, a devotee of the dead, a student of land and the skies.......beloved by her village, even if she didnt notice. She went from being the youngest sibling to being the middle most.....and then the eldest, a responsibility she undertook without delay. The child that arrived after her was very small in stature, but her personality and care were quite large indeed, she often joked her elder sister stole all the height there was to be had |
They couldnt help a smile
(Tw: alluding to aortic dissection, drowning, child loss, and death)
*there was quiet, and then their hand was carefully held close to the sleeping doctor's chest, like they were holding someone small*
They watched quietly, feeling that same pull in their chest once more. They didn't dare to move though, not wishing to disturb their slumber. Life moved closer and carefully lowered death's hood, kissing the top of their head.
+ ....didnt do too bad then? +
They smiled a little
| i didnt explode in my grave, so no |
*the soft smile hadn't left their face and they curled up with said hand, giving a quiet hum of contentment as they stroked the top of it gently*
Their fingers twitched ever so slightly, their smile growing a tad nervous.
Life chuckled
+ sticky situation there, eh? +
| Éist do bhéal |
*they kept stroking, seeming to be trying to comb through someone's hair gently. It didn't hurt of course, though Isa didn't have their gloves on either, so their short and blunt nails probably weren't helping this situation*
It only took a moment before a few bubbly giggles, they put their free hand over their mouth to stifle it, not wanting to wake them
*they continued this for a little while, gently shushing the hand like they were shushing a baby to sleep, whispering the most affectionate of reasurances before seeming to fall deeper into sleep, relaxing. The stroking stopping, but the hand still cuddled close*
They managed to compose themself, trying to use their free hand to rub the back of the trapped one to get rid of any lingering sensation.
+ well, that was very sweet +
| tell no one that happens |
+ noted +
*they snuggled in. Whatever they were dreaming about, it at least seems pleasant in large part to the boney teddybear(hand) they held so closely. It was about an hour or so before they eventually showed signs of waking*
Death decided to pop the hand off for now, taking a moment to stretch and have some tea with Life. They were enjoying one of the biscuits when they noticed them stirring.
*they slowly stirred, giving a yawn as they held the hand close..wait, what were they holding? They squinted their eyes open. They blinked before giving a yelp, not yet recalling who's hand this was*
The hand gave them a wave as Death set their cup down
| it's alright, dear |
+ you kinda hand-napped them, lovey +
*stunned a moment they blink, waving back at the dismembered hand in their bewilderment* ..oh. Oh, oh dear!
*they flushed in embarassment at this realization as they held the hand carefully, sitting themself up with their free arm*
Apologies, boss. I, did not mean to disarm you
+ to be fair, they were attached to it for majority of the time +
Which meant they hadn't left their side for a moment, they still hadn't in all honesty.
| its quite alright. I'm just glad you got some rest |
*they thought about that, looking to them. They gave a soft smile, visiably touched*
..thank you. Both of you.. I know that was most probably quite awkward
Death shook their head
| not at all, dear |
+ it was a bit of a ticklish situation for a moment there though +
Life grinned, death shot them a look
*they looked between the two, tilting their head*
Oh? Did I miss something?
+ Earlier on when you were holding their hand, you were having quite the dream+
Death put their face in their other hand
*they thought, looking confused..they thought about what they remembered about their dream..the way they were cradling their hand by time they woke up. Still was, for the most part*
......*their eyes widened and their flush deepened, sitting up straight as they handed the detatched hand over to the robed figure* My apologies. Did I do anything untoward? Aside from the obvious?
*being that they kept their hand prisoner*
Death retrieved their hand, wiggling their fingers a bit as they popped it back on
+ i wouldnt say untoward. You were just stroking the top of it +
Life smiled, continuing
+ if you recall the Adventure you had on the way to retrieve sublime, then you may understand the predicament +
*they blinked. How would...oh. They smiled in realization, a bit of amusement, and a dash of apology*
Oh, I see *they chuckled* And they told you about that particular predicament, did they?
+ in the midst of being in it once more, by yours truly, yes. They happen to be rather fond of it +
Death rolled their eyes, cheeks flushed as they pulled their hood back up
*they hid a giggle*
Ah. That is really quite sweet. Not something to be embarrassed of, boss
*they smiled genuinely, any embarrased flush now gone*
Everybody STOP having a crisis, it’s now tea time
