Right, you miserable lot. Let's talk about succubi. That's the plural of succubus, for all of you who wanked your way through classes

Then we're meant to understand that the taint was caused by these succubi.

[lullabyoflondon]

Something like that. Can't say for sure--I've never had to cope with splashed succubus entrails before. Goat entrails, a couple times before I found better ways of divination. But that's a bit different.

[scarredsight]

I'd suggest keeping those details to yourself, if you don't mind.

[lullabyoflondon]

Just adding a bit of flavour to things, mate.

It sounds like you got through the mess all right, anyway.

[Hey John? See that girl walking across the square at you? See her fist aimed at your face? Oh yeah. She found you.]

Happy fuckin' birthday to me.

[If he had less of a guilty conscience, he'd probably run. As it is, he merely drops his half-opened pack of cigarettes in surprise, spends a split-second looking like he very much wants to flee...and takes the punch.]

Where's me present yeh son of a bitch?

[He palms his face, checking for blood. He might have bitten his lip a little, but that's all right, he'll live. He crouches to pick up his cigarettes, not quite looking at Eden.]

What d'you want, flowers?

[glock30]

Is it like your MO to just pop in and out like a giant pimple?

[lullabyoflondon]

Yeah, that's me. But I prefer "like a bad penny."

[glock30]

I think the pimple analogy's a little more accurate.

For a pimple, you're pretty educated on this shit, though.

[lullabyoflondon]

You have got a way with words, love.

Yeah, well...I had to be doing something when I was supposed to be paying attention in school, didn't I?

[banditfox]

Delightful.

[lullabyoflondon]

You'd think so, but somehow I like the bints better when they're trying to seduce me instead of turning everyone evil.

[banditfox]

You're certain the cleansing is complete?

[lullabyoflondon]

You don't feel anything left of the taint, do you?

[venomouselle]

Someone likes the sound of his voice.

[lullabyoflondon]

I'll have you know the birds love the sound of my voice, too. Just ask whoever's left in the pub after midnight.

[venomouselle]

The most beautiful people that more than five drinks can buy, obviously.

[lullabyoflondon]

Don't underestimate my charm. I rarely need more than three drinks.
