[There might be the sound of flicking pages. Journal pages. And then -- the high-powered whiiiiirr of ... a hairdryer. It must have blown the journal to a recording page. Are you envious yet, Lucetians?Albert had arrived in his Malnosso-furnished quarters earlier and spent some time checking things out, and has been there long enough to relax. ( Read more... )

[Kratos arrived here later than the others, but he's getting the hang of the room quickly. There's a comfortable chair that he's sitting in, and one of the books among the walls of them open in his lap. On the other side are items specifically for the war, like something to sharpen his sword, training dummies that he's already dealt with, boxes of different varieties of gels, and his most trusted weapons, the Flamberge and the shield he always used. A bit nostalgic for him, but also handy. They're very powerful weapons.

With his journal open, he hears that... strange noise. It kind of sounds like a door in Welgaia opening, but it's much more prolonged. He stops his reading and listens for a while until it's shut off. Huh. Well, whatever. But then...]

You requested an owl?

[There's a prolonged silence before Albert responds.]

There is a giant owl in my room.

[... What. Okay, Kratos has to set that book down.]

A... giant owl. Hm...

[Quite honestly, Albert had been a bit facetious in asking for the animal. They were uncommon enough in his world, and he had only really read about them living in the southernmost reaches of the Scarlet Moon Empire years ago, and...

Well. He hadn't expected to actually see one. Ever.]

I suppose it hadn't sunken in just how abstract our requests could be that would be granted.

You wanted some kind of pet?

[There's a snort of almost-disbelief.]

Hardly. I was testing the buzzer we were supplied with. You haven't tried anything strange yet?

Nope.

[A shuffle, OH HE'S GOING TO HAVE FUN WITH THIS.]

But I think I just found what I'm going to do the rest of this wait.

Oh. Right, I'm Jacob. I've heard you around, never got a chance to properly introduce myself.

A pleasure, Jacob. I am Albert.

It's quite an opportunity. But I'm sure the Malnosso will have some restrictions in place. ...Not that there is much "place" for us at the moment. [White hallway to nowhere and all.]

You could have asked for anything and you chose an owl?

[The mocking tone, it burns.]

A giant owl.

You probably don't want that one perching on your head.

[There is a short, considering silence.]

It would undoubtedly crush me in the process.

An owl?

[He's instantly thinking of an innocent little creature, like Rune or Selene.]

...Well. [And you'll get treated to the view of ... a giant owl eye, Yuan. Isn't that creepy lovely?]

[Voice] fortunefail March 14 2010, 09:21:55 UTC
[That was... unexpected, to say the least.] What the hell is that?!

[Albert turns the journal back around, away from the humongous bird.] A giant owl. Apparently the Malnosso can grant even obscure requests.

Would you like me to deal with it?

[And by the way, Albert is invited into his room, he's the only person who will be.]

Reply

[Off Journal] chikaidestroyer March 14 2010, 09:53:43 UTC
...Hah. I believe it is fairly harmless. And you will have your bloodshed soon.

[Walking into the lion's den, right? Scary...]

Reply

[Off Journal] blackenedchaos March 14 2010, 09:59:44 UTC
But why an owl and not a demon to ensure your safety?

[For anyone who isn't Albert maybe, he at least doesn't risk too much harm.]

Even if I were able to request a demon, there is no guarantee it would obey me; they are usually demons under your control, are they not?
