Eclipse, Demon Diary.

Aug 21, 2006 23:39

Eclipse made his way into the Sorting Room, a dragon-like being flanking him. One might mistakenly assume the man to be Japanese based on his appearance - black hair, dark eyes, and attire that consisted of what looked like a plain rust-coloured kimono over a black linen kosode. He dismissed the large winged creature with a telepathic command, and ( Read more... )

application, eclipse

Rumpleteazer regards the man with suspicion. On one paw, he sounds like Coricopat and Macavity mixed together. On the other, food sounds terribly good.

'You evil?'

He stared down at the talking cat, curiously unfazed. "I'm a Demon. We're not meant to be very nice."

'Teazer considers his answer. 'Why not? Do you have a plan of revenge against somebody?'

eclipse_demon August 22 2006, 16:18:03 UTC

"No, not currently. Nearly all of my time is spent tutoring my ward, when he is... available."

cockneycat August 22 2006, 18:21:03 UTC

'Don't worry. I'm sure 'e'll turn up,' says 'Teazer. 'Most people seem to. What's 'is name?'

eclipse_demon August 22 2006, 22:53:25 UTC

"He will," he agreed. "The Seer has never been wrong. His name is Lord Raenef the Fifth."

cockneycat August 22 2006, 22:55:32 UTC

For the second time in as many days, she freezes.

'He's here...' she says cautiously. 'He was very kind to me...'

eclipse_demon August 23 2006, 00:08:37 UTC

He noted the reaction, but wasn't sure what it meant. He generally tolerated cats well enough - they could be downright demonic sometimes, which he approved of - but didn't understand them. "I see." He scowled. "Do you know where, precisely, he is right now?"

cockneycat August 23 2006, 00:10:12 UTC

'I think,' (cautiously), 'he's in one of the other Sorting Rooms. I could be wrong...'

eclipse_demon August 23 2006, 01:34:35 UTC

He nodded. Perhaps he could leave his own Sorting before it was over... "Very well. Are you going to accept any of my offerings?"

cockneycat August 23 2006, 01:36:10 UTC

Very well. 'Anything gold or silver or flashy, in exchange for whichever House you want.'

"I will return." He visualised one of the treasury rooms of Raenef Castle, murmured a word, and immediately disappeared from view. Within a couple minutes he returned the same way, holding a drawstring velvet pouch. Crouching down (but not kneeling), he opened the pouch and carefully emptied its contents onto the floor before the cat: an elegant silver chain bearing an emerald and diamond pawprint charm, and a matching chain of gold with a ruby and diamond pawprint charm.

"I'm unfamiliar with the houses. I'm told Hufflepuff is best suited for demons. Do you agree?"

cockneycat August 23 2006, 02:04:24 UTC

(( This is just perfect for a Plot I have in mind. Thank you!))

Confused at the way he dis- and reappeared, all bad feeling evaporates at seeing the chains. She tucks them together, next to her, with her paw.

'Personally, I woulda picked Slytherin. Which do you prefer?'

eclipse_demon August 23 2006, 03:45:35 UTC

((You're very welcome! ^_^ I love all the Cats characters running around. Thanks for daring to interact with grouchy Eclipse. ;) ))

Since the velvet pouch went with the gift, and not because Eclipse is nice or anything of the sort (certainly not), he takes the liberty of returning the chains to the pouch for her, and leaves it by her. He then stands back up. "Either house is adequate. Hufflepuff, I suppose."

Hufflepuff cockneycat August 23 2006, 03:49:00 UTC

She is sure he has a marshmallow centre.

'That's my house,' she admits shyly. 'Hufflepuff, then.'

She takes the pouch in her mouth.
