Hey, folks of Luceti. Lucetians? Lucetitarians? Oh, whatever.

[Sounds of rustling; Buffy clears her throat.] I need a priest--is anyone here a priest? Or know a priest? I need someone who can bless things. Watery things. Oh, and maybe a few crosses. It's sort of urgent. I'll supply the crosses and the water,

Lute's a priest and there is Sasarai who's a bishop.

[slaying]

Hmm. I might have to go look for them, then. I've spoken with Sarasai, but he's not a bishop in the same religion that would bless the water back home. Still, no harm in trying.

[broken_messiah]

Lute... should be around somewhere. I see. Though Sasarai might not actually be up to blessing anything in his current... state.

[slaying]

We had a card game in the clinic together--is he really still there?

[broken_messiah]

He's... terminally ill.

[slaying]

Oh my god. I'm so sorry--he never told me why he was there. We just played cards, and chatted.

Oh my god.

[broken_messiah]

It's alright.

He... doesn't want to make a big deal out of this.

[slaying]

I honestly had no idea. [She seems flustered.] I probably shouldn't go to him with my little holy water quest. Wouldn't want to be a nuisance.

[broken_messiah]

It wouldn't be a nuisance... He wouldn't think it is, just that he's not really up to it right now.

Why do you need holy water?

[slaying]

A little enchantment that I'm working on. A spell to take back an invitation given to someone--it calls for the sprinkling of holy water.

[broken_messiah]

A spell to take back an invitation?

... you're an exorcist?

[slaying]

[She laughs quietly.] What? Me? No, I'm not looking to uninvite someone from a body, more like a house. I don't want them actually physically walking in through the door-way.

[broken_messiah]

I see. So you're setting up a kekkai, I mean, a barrier?

[slaying]

Sure, that sounds like a good comparison. I'm trying to make a barrier but only against one person. This...barrier? It's supposed to exist already in the first place. But when you actually invite the person in, then they can always get in and you have to get the mojo out in order to take back that invitation.

[broken_messiah]

I see. I've never heard of something like that. I suppose that sort of like the job of an onmyouji.

[slaying]

An on-my-what-now?
