[for those that watched a particular memory broadcast, the strange, skeletal- and mechanical-like armor shirley wears should be familiar. even still, her own leathery, dragon-like wings shouldn't be a surprised, at least. if one ever thought her an angel, it would certainly be one of death in this moment. because if not the armor, then the look in ( Read more... )

[ Oh hey, it's video-- but it might as well be voice since all the camera's focusing on is plantlife in a small garden. From behind the camera comes Angeal's voice and it's normal enough, if... a bit flat and closed off. Dull. ]

Unfortunately, I won't be able to take care of my plants for a while. If anyone with some sort of experience in gardening ( Read more... )

[It starts with a heavy sigh before the sound of boots scuffing against the ground follows suit. He hasn't taken much part in any excavations, but his interest has been piqued in it lately.]Why do I get the feeling that digging up old 'treasures' is a bad idea? It can't be any worse than the Bone Village, right? Maybe we'll even find a flute here ( Read more... )

[The Forge snaps on, and all that greets the sound is the soft, repetitive clatter of what is assumed to be several supplies all tucked into something and the steady clack of... wood?

Then, after quite a long period of silence, there is but a rather haunting chuckle.]

Ah...

[Abruptly it switches over to video, and the sight of the man behind ( Read more... )

[Lovely footage of the sky this time. Hades is outside - where he is exactly is uncertain. It's certainly very quiet, with only the occasional bird chirping.]

The sudden infatuations with one another are rather [...] curious.

I had not expected people to be capable of developing such strong emotions in such a short period of time. Perhaps [a languid ( Read more... )

[There's a sudden sound of rustling cloth and a startled meow. Nero must have accidently turned the Forge on somehow.]

[A few more seconds of the rustling and then the feed goes quiet for a minute.]

I miss you. More than usual.

[It's Lucian. And he's pining. It appears he is indeed capable of feeling emotions that aren't anger-based - quite a shock, I ( Read more... )

I've gotten used to how bad people can be here, but you'd think someone could at least watch where they're going when they're walking down a crowded street.

[A huff.]

It wasn't just me he was rude to, either. I saw him glaring at a few of the locals too. I have no idea what his problem was.

[She shrugs, and then her face falls out of an ( Read more... )

[Wow, look at that beautiful window. White curtains, clean glass, a nice view of the street, the whole shebang.

It doesn't talk, though. Good thing Hades talks enough for an entire room.]

The life has left the stones.

Have they tired of control, perhaps?

[...]

Would you leave if nothing was left to gain?

I have empty time to give. [Is that an offer? A ( Read more... )

Stop it! [Hermione's voice is shrill and pained. Then again, one can hardly blame her. Before she arrived in Anatole, she had been held under the Cruciatus Curse by none other than Bellatrix Lestrange.]

Wh-Where am I...? [Her lip is bleeding and her face is the color of pale parchment.] Harry? Ron?! [She clutches her arm to her chest, ( Read more... )
