“Nope, let my adrenaline run out, and then you can help.”
“You… you’re my friend… I trust you, and like you, you’re great.”
"Alrighty." he leans back, watching
"I consider you a friend too. You can come to the clinic anytime, okay?" he smiles
Saphuno is stuck with one of each of the eeveelutions.
He does what he can, picking up things and mopping before collapsing back onto the couch.
She crawls over to be face to face with them, smiling back, “Okay… I wish I could do something for you in return.”
Damian watches, he’s definitely jealous though he wouldn’t say this he is for a moment.
Zephyr crawls over to sit in their lap, smiling
"I don't see what, so its okay."
"My dearest husband... I got too many.."

He holds them their, warm arms wrapping around them.
She sighs, lying back down on their chest, “I’ll think of something.”
He raises an eyebrow, crossing his arms, “Did you dear? Would you like my help?”
"How was work?" he runs a claw over their cheek
"If you insist.." his breathing slows
"I certainly would..." she chuckles

"Well... they've found a way, but it isn't exactly safe."
"Well, you don't have to be Baptised to become an Arteist. You could accept a Nightmare as a familiar instead. One that could survive the real world, of course..."
"What is it?" She asks with genuine curiosity, though it's in a more serious tone than before.
"'Look upon all you have done. There is no forgiveness.'" She mutters under her breath, remembering the Nightmare that Felix gave her. "...And what would that entail?"
"Well, they need to be loved. Cared for by a mortal. That fulfils them. That's what being a Familiar is. Sometimes, an entire town can have a Familiar. I've always wanted to take one in, but I'm legally required to kill them on sight, so... yeah."
"Care for it. Love it. Make it whole in your arms. It will grant you its powers without question if you give it a life worth living. The life of a Nightmare is... well, a Nightmare, after all."

"Really? I thank you for your patronage then." He smiles faintly.
"No problem. I wanted to do something nice for you!"
"Nothing at all."
"I enjoyed the one about werewolves." she says simply, the shelf disappearing as well
"Well, I don't know how to return the favor." he chuckles softly. "any ideas?"
"You sure about that?"
"Lycanthropes. Sorry, I oughtn't correct you unnecessarily."
"The point of a favor is you do it without needing or asking for a reward. I'm completely and entirely fine."
"Yep."
"Careful now, I can kill ya at any time." she says with a teasing smile, showing fangs.
"Well, I still feel like doing you a solid too. But, alas, I know not how to repay you."
"Well, then sit. You're making me nervous."
He nods. "True, true..."
"I'm fine. The fact that you even want to repay me is more than enough."
"Nervous? Then maybe you ought to relax..." Rio smirks.
She sits down at a chair, cracking her neck. "Anyway.."
"Well then, i'll be good with that." he smiles. "Massage?"
"Why the smirk, hmm? What would your fiancee think? I cant relax with you towering over me."
He turns around. “So are you a goddess? Or some other force of nature? A primordial perhaps?”
“Still wouldn’t work, I think.”
“I don’t see what you’re saying here. Was not the Buddha tempted by demons as he tried to enlighten himself?”
"I am Time itself, and nothing more."
"Oh, right. How about tea?"
"Buddha was old and fat, and had not a god to find and track. Nor did he have the handsome demons around him"

"Hmmm... then I will make arrangements for you." Oris looks disappointed. "I do hope you understand that God made you, and He loves you. You are not allowed to hurt His creations, unless there is no other option. I must leave." He snaps his fingers and Oris follows him. "Do well, Misha."
"Because... I like you. I wanted you to meet my family." He looks a bit sad.
She watches him leave before turning her gaze to the cross she had pinned on the wall. It belonged to her mother and was passed down to her. She rubbed her thumb against the already worn wood of her rosary.
"Well I am happy to meet them." He smiles "Even if they nip me."
*Sad end?*
He looks down at it. "Would you like to keep him? As a familiar? He might be able to grow stronger if he had care from a real person."

He scratches Oris on the head.
"Oris looks like a friend in the dark, I'm glad you have such a thing." he smiles.
"Truly, they are filled with kindness and love that I don't fully understand. I am very lucky to have them." He picks up their upper body, and they look around with their long neck. "Would you like to hold them?"

"Interesting... what's so dangerous about that? Are Nightmares passively corruptive or something?"
She is silent for a while, deep in thought, before she speaks again. "...Could someone do both of those things? Could a Nightmare be a Familiar to someone who's already invited the Sea into their soul?" She asks, sitting down on the shore and watching the waves. "Maybe that way, I could keep my morality and still be as strong as if I had traded it away."

As soon as he is told to do so, he picks up the sword and assumes a fighting stance. He analyzes Eithan for just a moment, then swings wide in an attempt to maximize potential hit locations.
To Hit: 6 (he's not proficient in martial weapons and has a +1 to STR. Not even level one.)
Half-way through the swing, he thrusts directly at Eithan's stomach.
To Hit: 20
The moment he swings each time, he catches the blade with his armored hand, before pushing the blade to the ground “And there we have it, someone willing to kill to prove their beliefs, in the right hands, you are someone capable of taking down nations. A fanatic if handled poorly.”
*Good end? I can't think of how to continue this, really.*
