"Hey Teja." Guppy approaches, looking at the green thing.

"It's still green, that's something."

[ostro_goth]

"Greetings, Guppy," Teja says, looking up from his teacup.

He looks as quiet and grim as always. Nothing gives away what kind of night he had.

"Why should a change in colour be bad?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"Thats a Sims diamond." Guppy says. "The colour relates to the state of the being under it. Green is good, orange is less good, red is bad."

[ostro_goth]

"You know what that is?" Teja says, amazed. "That must be made common knowledge immediately. All worry about it. Why is it here, and where did it come from?"

There's a rather perturbed looking McCabe sitting nearby. He's still a little hung over from yesterday's post-mortem bender. That isn't stopping him from working on another one. It's surprising how much a man can hold down when he's got a lot to regret and there's no risk of alcohol poisoning. He turns his head slowly toward Teja.

"Noticed it earlier th's mornin'," he mutters. "Thought maybe 'd had too much 'n was seein' things. Then I thought maybe it was Hell tryin' to break through 'n collect."

He takes a swig of whiskey. "Don't know what it is now."

[ostro_goth]

"The green thing?" Teja says. "Guppy just told me that it is a Sims Diamond, and it being green is supposed to be a good sign. Where it comes from or why it is there, he could only offer speculation of, though."

[gotpoetryinme]

"Is it, now?" McCabe says. "Well, if that's all it is, I'm sure it'll all be just goddamn peachy."

[ostro_goth]

"We still do not know the why and how, now we know the what," Teja says. "And if that thing changes colour, it will mean dire things."

"Greetings, Your Majesty." As usual, she just... is.

There, the next seat over, the Lightbringer, the Adversary, the Princess of Darkness.

Eshara, for her close ones.

[ostro_goth]

"Greetings," Teja says, looking at her with almost a smile.

The devil, as he knows her, has never been bad news to him.

[7twistedwishes]

Why would she? The Devil sincerely likes him.

Teja is... interesting. "How are you, My King?"

[ostro_goth]

"I am worried, as all are, about the fate of this place," Teja says. "But I have been to see my people, also, in case I may never do so again."
