She takes it and stares at it for a moment, her eyes dilating back and forth. She is stock still before glancing up at him. She smiles softly and rubs her thumb over it, speechless.
"I am well sir, how was your day?" He asks.
Donn gently takes Egregore's hand. "You need hate, pain, nightmares to sate your hunger... I have nothing left to lose so take my pain instead." He chuckles, empty.
"When I was a child, I had a pet. It was an Otyugh named Apple Blossom. My parents used it as a garbage disposal, and once it no longer served its purpose, they killed it and canned it. I made that tie bar to commemorate its life. It was the only creature I had ever enjoyed the presence of."
"Pretty awful. I feel obligated to stay around here now and take over where Raphael fell, but technically I still have a job to do which conflicts with that."
Egregore squeezes Donn's hand firmly. More and more hands grip him tightly. He presses his skull against Donn's chest. He moves his head to Donn's shoulder and begins to chew, his sharp teeth grinding into Donn's tough flesh and leeching emotional anguish like a vampire leeches blood. The smog titan seems too tired to even chew properly.
Yuri listening to his story and nodded. "A beautiful way to keep it with you at all times.." she said softly. "Such a pretty creature reduced to a simple pet only to be killed when it was no longer seen as useful. It was always useful, just not in the right set of eyes." She spoke.
"What is your job, may I ask?" He meowed, ears flicking in curiosity.
Donn has to bite his tongue as to not since in pain, but that was all this was, pain. The pain of losing children, the guilt of doing nothing, the pain of sentencing someone else to that death all because of vengeance. Tears streamed down his furred cheeks on dripped out to his suit pants.
Jason smiles, "Whats the blood stock market looking like?"
"Woah..." kylar seems impressed by this, sitting on a mushroom
"There is one in town but it opens at night." He says and smiles "Maybe we could go there?"
"Aw, thank you for being impressed." Yuri smiles sweetly.
"Sure!" He says cheerily
"I mean, not just anyone can conjure matter like this." She says, "Or summon plants either." She nods
Kelipso hugs him and continues his work.
Yuri chuckles "I happen to be very powerful." She smiled.
Jason let's the fox go before hugging kelipso back, "Hey, did I ever feed on you?"
"Hmm, I think special grade." She says
"Many a time." He nods.
She raises an eyebrow.
"If worst comes to worse... could I do that again?" He asks, seeming to not feel the best about the request
"Just a classification thing, sorry" she laughs
He nods "Always. I would hate to see you starve knowing I could prevent it." He said.
"Classification? Are you a scientist of sorts?"
Jason nods softly, "Thank you."
"Kinda? I didn't make the system, but it's kinda like power scaling." She says
He smiled and leans his head against Jason's shoulder.
"Oh dear.." Donn mutters.
Jason smiles, putting an arm around them happily
"I shouldn't talk about it, apologies." She says sheepishly
Kelipso bits the string between his teeth and pulls it taut again the bowline.
"No no, please tell me what you mean?" Yuri asked.
Jason watches curiously, "Neat..."
"Its more of an agreement that you're strong." She says quickly
"Thank you. Tis now served me a good five years." He chuckles.
"My head hurts." Donn bemoans. Yuri smacks his shoulder again "Let her finish."
"Wow, I should get a weapon that can do that." He laughs
"Basically, we have multiple grades of strength, and currently special grade is at the top. Wether it's a weapon, creature, or general item."
"Don't you have your dagger?"
Both are seeming to listen as she explains.
"Yeah, a hunting knife. I can remember how to use it, but I don't have a magical knife" He says, tapping the sheathed blade, "And considering how many magical creatures there are..."
"This can range from the ability to simply copy another person power, to causing blackholes. The range is wide, and can encompass various levels of special grade iverall" she explains
"I could find a way to magically enchant it for you?" He said.
Donn tilts his head "I still find it rather weird that you have a scale for power."
"That'd be nice" He smiles
"Well its better than just saying 'yeah he's probably pretty strong, we aren't sure' and then getting your newbies cut in half"
Kelipso nods "I'll get on it tomorrow." He smiles.
"Oh dear." Yuri chuckled.
Jason hums, leaning on kelipso a bit in a hug
"For instance, I'm a low special grade, you're probably a medium, and my brother is a high." She says
*Might need to clip this again lol*
Kelipso chuckles and sets down his stuff. He picks up Jason and holds him close.
Yuri listening to his story and nodded. "A beautiful way to keep it with you at all times.." she said softly. "Such a pretty creature reduced to a simple pet only to be killed when it was no longer seen as useful. It was always useful, just not in the right set of eyes." She spoke.
"What is your job, may I ask?" He meowed, ears flicking in curiosity.
Donn has to bite his tongue as to not since in pain, but that was all this was, pain. The pain of losing children, the guilt of doing nothing, the pain of sentencing someone else to that death all because of vengeance. Tears streamed down his furred cheeks on dripped out to his suit pants.
"I want you to have it." He says simply.
He picks up a barbecued rib. "I'm, well, a High Critic for the Great Ones. The rulers of Great One society want to dine on the best, and they adore mortal cuisine. My job is to seek out the best of it and give my review."
Eventually, the grinding and chewing stop. Donn feels refreshed, even though his shoulder is nearly chewed through. Like how one feels after a good cry, but with more obliterated joints. The Egregore climbs down. He looks almost like himself again, although emaciated still. "You have more in you... but you need your strength. If I take too much, you'll die, and that would be a disrespect to your children."
*I actually have a character I think could interact well with Hanzo.*
A samurai of sorts wearing a wide brimmed hat is speaking with a ghost. He wears think, first green and grey plate armor, dual handaxes on his hips, and a long black scarf around his neck. His eyes and face are concealed by an oni mask.
Hanzo sheathes his blade and walks over. "Talking to spirits?"
The man looks up and nods quietly. "They need help returning to the afterlife." His voice was gentle.
"Ah...I'd be no help there."
"Most likely not. You seem to have an angry aura.." he said quietly.
His eyes tighten, clearly hurt by that
"I meant no harm by my words, I'm sorry if I unintentionally insulted you." He said, looking down
"Its fine.." he says with a sigh
The other simply stands there "My name is Shou." He bows.
He bows back. "I'm Hanzo."
He nods "I know.. the spirit's told me."
"How do the spirits know me.."
"You've killed quite a lot of them.." he said quietly "They forgive you though."
(well one more try?)
a shambling man walks up to you two and asks in a gurgly voice "could you point me in the direction of the nearest town?"
Shou tilts his head. "There is one being built right now. You will find it over the hill .."
"thanks" the man shambles on. he gives off an aura of death with something living inside.

Yuri snaps her head to the side and blinks "No.. no.. no no no no." She said "It is and was something special to you. I cannot take it from you." She spoke.
"Oh! Well, if you have a job, you may need to get going! Don't want you to lose it!" He said.
Donn smiles and wipes his eyes "I'm sorry I let it get this bad for you.." he said.
The dhampir snuggles against the tiefling, humming to himself a little.
"He's the head of my family, strongest person I've ever met. His technique is.... well, cutting things." She says simply
Kelipso leans back against a tree and smiles, starting to fall asleep.
"Cutting things?"
Jason doesn't fall asleep, but doesn't move, enjoying the moment quietly
"Yep. I guess in a sense the simpler it is, the easier it is to make strong. Mines really complicated, and I'm not good at using it." She says, messing with her hands, "He can cut a 2 story building steight down the middle in half, its kinda cool."

"Sounds violent" Donn spoke.

"Yeah, we try to make sure any actual fights with him happen outside..." She says with a half laugh
Yuri snaps her head to the side and blinks "No.. no.. no no no no." She said "It is and was something special to you. I cannot take it from you." She spoke.
"Oh! Well, if you have a job, you may need to get going! Don't want you to lose it!" He said.
Donn smiles and wipes his eyes "I'm sorry I let it get this bad for you.." he said.
"Too late." He smiles, a genuine one, as though she had told him a joke. "Rule of Reciprocity. Plus, I don't need it anymore."
"Eh, they can't fire me. They're too busy outbidding each other for my services. I've never been under a single one's command for more than six seconds."
The Egregore's eyes, now with a tinge of their usual gold, suddenly glare. "How the (GP) is that your fault? Your guilt is sickening." He slowly stands up from the floor, actually using his cane to support himself for what might be the first time. "Chin up. Things will only get worse from here, and if you give up now the world will be filled with people like those paladins. The people need you, even if they'd rather not admit it. (GP) whatever plans you have, I'm helping you from now on."
