"As were you, and I don't see you growing wings, unfortunately. 'Somewhat' will have to do for now, I suppose." He was definitely going to test these as soon as possible. Once Anndrea was better, probably. Tassek looked them over. Yep, definitely angelic and not demonic. That clarified that. He'd honestly been doubtful about whether Seculus was telling the truth about his origin, but the wings being white and not leathery were proof he wasn't a devil. With angels like these, who even needs devils though?

Terezi finished stitching and started to wrap the wound in gauze. "Did Rachael and Raphael follow you?"

"No, I believe they just assume we both are dead now, and moved on."

2015-06-14 03:42:57

🌀

"A reasonable assumption, really. We both almost were, after all....but maybe they'll leave us alone for a while."

"I hope so. Next time something worse might happen to you guys and you all will be dying as I'm screaming 'I told you so.'" Terezi tied off the gauze and set it down.

He lowered his head, looking a little depressed, and Tassek pulled on his shirt. Then he got up and went over, looking down at Anndrea for a moment, then up at Seculus, reaching over and running his hand down the feathers. Immediately Seculus straightened with a little yelp and the wings extended, almost knocking Tassek off balance.

Anndrea sat up slowly.

Terezi turned upon the yelp. "Well then, that's one way to say 'do not touch.'"

2015-06-14 04:10:32

🌀

The touch had sent a shiver down his spine. Not exactly a negative feeling, but it certainly wasn't expected. He put a hand out to stabilize Tassek. "Sorry, that was just..." He shrugged the hand off and crossed his arms. "I get it, asshole, you don't have to get pushy." "....I'm not...it was involuntary, I didn't..."

Terezi exhaled. Things do not change. Even if someone almost died.

"He did not mean to, Tassek. " She spoke up.

"...whatever." With one more look Anndrea he went and closed the door to his room behind him. Asshole. Not only did he have to be eight inches taller and kiss his girlfriend, but now he had to be a showoff and go and grow wings too? Okay, so that wasn't technically his fault, but whatever. Nah, it probably was, somehow. That jerk would do anything he could to one-up him. Seculus sighed. "...oh. How am I going to do anything at work?" Yeah, that'd be a problem. Or even getting there.

Cale pushed open the door to the wedding boutique. Nobody else was being helpful or cooperative in the slightest, so he was just moving down the list. At the very, /very/ bottom of that list was Spyders and Daniel. And Rati was down there somewhere, if she was even still around. Where had she even gone off to? Oh, the place was empty. Oh, there was the child of night. /Shit./ Nope, she'd already spotted him, too late.

Ivory somehow was given free run of the store. A horrible decision, honestly, but Lance insisted it. Of course he'd know /exactly/ when she would decide to do something stupid and come running back here. They weren't that far away. Now here she was. kneeling on a glass counter, and reading her current book. The door to the store opened. Oh god now she was going to act normal-Oh. It was just him. "Sorry Mister Cullen but Spyders and Lance are out getting a quick bite." She shut the book. "You can wait for them here or come back later."

2015-06-14 05:19:57

Mister--? OH SHE DID NOT JUST FUCKING PLAY THAT CARD. That last bit was a good pun, though, he hated to admit. "No way am I walking in on another of those greetings. Just don't talk too much and I'll deign to hang around."

2015-06-14 05:36:28

●

"Likewise. What the hell are you here for anyway." She shoved her book to the side. "Maybe I can help."

2015-06-14 05:43:43

🌀

"Doubt it, but maybe you can pass along the message if he takes too long. I gotta figure out how to convince Terezi that feeding off her boyfriend is one hell of a bad idea."

2015-06-14 05:48:34

●

Ivory paused before laughing. "HAHAHAHA! Good luck with that one, kid. Let me guess, you also confronted her and she screamed at you like always."

2015-06-14 05:50:05

🌀

"Fuck you, I'm pretty sure I'm older than you." Not that she hadn't. But hell if he was admitting that.

2015-06-14 05:53:28

●

"Oh and what are you going to do about it?" She leaned forward in a somewhat taunting manner, smirk plastered on her face.

2015-06-14 05:57:33

🌀

He should have smacked her in the face or something. But that was uncalled for, even he wasn't /that/ much of a jerk. "Raid your cash register." That was totally less of a jerk move. He was joking, though. Just joking.

2015-06-14 06:21:15

●

"Please do. That would give me something to tell Lance about. Hell, I would of done it by now if it wasn't for the fact I'd piss off Lance."

2015-06-14 06:22:34

🌀

"You're not getting me arrested, thanks. Or on his bad side. No thanks."

2015-06-14 07:01:09

●

Ivory giggled again. "He has a bad side? Now /that/ is something I'd pay to see."

2015-06-14 07:01:55

🌀

"How much, your left arm and liver? Because that's what you'd end up without."

2015-06-14 07:03:26

●

"Oh he can't be that horrible. I think you're just making things up."

2015-06-14 07:04:10

🌀

"I told you I was older. I've known him long enough to see him get pissed at someone."

2015-06-14 07:04:41

●

"And who might that be?" She grinned as she hopped of the counter. Holy shit she was short without heels. She had to look up to keep eye contact with him.

2015-06-14 07:05:49

🌀

"........me. But I bet you've come pretty damn close." He had his arms crossed as he glared down at her.
