For those of you that have inquired, Georgie's doing much better. In fact, she's going to live. Future's been saved for the time being, all's well

Oh, so now you've nearly killed yourself twice and you're starting a war? You're just bound and bloody determined to send mum to an early grave, aren't you?
And what do you mean you've gone mad? That implies you were ever anything but.
...I'm really glad I made you up to be my little sister, Viv. Lovely Viv.
I won't argue that particular point with you, but eccentricities aside, I'm in real fear for my sanity. That might make me sane, though...don't crazy people think everyone else has gone mad? Yes, I think that's right...
Come on, you. Wanna help? Mum already knows who I'm fighting.
I existed first, makes me older, so stuff it, you.
Pick one and get with it, time is of the essence. And I'm not saying I won't go try to nearly kill myself again, there's plenty of time for that. But I do want you to help with this...dangerous business, though. We're going up against the thing that Mum and Dad won't talk about...the thing from twenty years ago. That's what tried to kill Georgie.
Good girl. Now to start: mind your hair more stringently than usual. This bloke's got hooks in every single one of our friends. Nettie and Felix are the only safe ones. Oh, and Cherie Lacroix. Don't tell her, but she's another temporal anomaly. I also hear the Langiers have a new older sister...must apologize to Mrs. Langier for that. Or not, she'll be cross if she knows it's my fault she had four children.
...but I'm babbling. Incubus I mentioned. Nahuel's his name, and after tea with Kalika I've decided to declare open war. Apparently gods can fight quite nasty.
Break out the metallic gemmed snoods that father enchanted for protection, yes, yes, I've got it.
Five, Magnus. Well, four pregnancies, but five children. And...oh, I should tell her. I should bloody well tell her it's all your fault. That'd be worth the price of admission.
Right, back to seriousness. War. Death. Gods. Tea. All of that. Yes, I'm in.

Good girl.
...what? Patrick, Emma, Evan...Izzie. This Bianca bird's the fifth, right. Told you I was going bloody mad.
Good. Now, first thing's first: we have to ambush our brother. He doesn't know I know this, but the demon...he hurt him, twenty years ago. Just about killed him. We need to know what he knows, and figure out how to stop him from joining this fight.
Re: [locked]its_all_goldJanuary 20 2011, 05:18:04 UTC
...Jed is infected with an incubitic parasite, Viveka. He was host to a non-corporeal, bioelectrically manifested demon that wasn't exercised, but killed in symbiosis, and it's all Nahuel's fault.
He turned our brother into an incubus, and nobody knows, not even Brooklyn. And considering that Nahuel has Brooklyn in his power, could turn her against us all at any time, allowing him to fight would put him and us in a very compromising position.
Re: [locked]its_all_goldJanuary 20 2011, 05:27:45 UTC
Felix has vetted everyone, and we're already too late. Nahuel's got them all...some by blood, some by vow, and some by sexual domination. That's how he got Nettie, Brookie was a blood bond. That's how you and the other anomalies were spared, your timelines didn't mesh properly with his because he's a demon. It's entirely possible he doesn't even realize he forgot you.
That's why he tried to kill Georgie. We're mated, bonded, he can't dominate our will because we've already got dominion over each other. Nettie and Felix have sealed their own mating bond, makes them safe. I almost wish you had a bloke of your own, dear, love is the only true deterrent against an incubus.
Re: [locked]its_all_goldJanuary 20 2011, 05:39:20 UTC
Oi! That's my little sister you're talking about, piss off!
I'm dead certain. Would've acted sooner, but he came after Georgie through me. Had to ask an incubus and a succubus to bloody kill me to fix that mess...on our side, no worries.
There's precious little question, Viv. Felix did the spell, and it's a good one. I'd have asked Dad to be sure, but I don't want to involve the adults in this unless we've no other choice. Too many bad memories...anyway, this is our war now.
Magnus, do you have any idea the level of trust it would take for me to be with someone the way that you mean? I don't...I can't trust anyone that isn't mum, dad, or...fine, you, that much.
...That's bloody disgusting and more than I needed to know.
Then we have to take his hole cards away, so to speak.
Re: [locked]its_all_goldJanuary 20 2011, 06:33:51 UTC
Same trust I put in my werewolf wife every time we're together...I get it, Vivy. And it is possible.
Right now, bastard probably thinks his hole card is Brooklyn. I survived him, I'm a threat, and she matters most to me. His greatest thralls, however, are probably Shayla and, previously, Nettie. We'll work on Shay...and we should investigate the guardians of the Sannan children. See if they've been targeted as part of this.
And what do you mean you've gone mad? That implies you were ever anything but.

...There are so many comments I could make I hardly know which one to grab on to first.
Oh, I get to help with this one? You're not just going to nearly kill yourself again? Well, strike up the bloody band.

We should take steps to protect the ones he hasn't gotten to yet. Are you sure he got to everyone? Absolutely positive, without a doubt?
