Daniel's gaze went to Spyders. "Well, well, well, look at at what servant dragged in."

"Oh it was easy to be brought in. I just followed the smell of betrayal and corruption and well...look at where I am now. Word said that you were back, but I didn't just want to believe."

Well, they seemed rather occupied, unfortunately, Spyders was also blocking the door, so escape wasn't an option. Unless he took a page out of the DDD's book himself. He slowly stepped backwards towards the window, watching Daniel carefully.

Obvious, Daniel didn't notice Tassek escaping as he was preoccupied. "...Who turned Terezi?"

"I did."

"And you expect me to believe that."

"...You ran out her just to save your own skin. Did you honestly think that I didn't know I was serving a vampire for three years? Your masking abilities aren't THAT great."

"I'll fucking kill you."

"But you know if you try to hit me it will make me stronger."

He reached behind him and unlatched the window, sliding it open as quickly as he could without it squeaking.

Daniel heard the window unlatched and he turned to face it.

"You're not going anywhere." Spyders snapped before he pulled the taller male back by the collar.

2015-05-06 17:25:20

🌀

Tassek was relieved that Spyders was keeping him back, even if he wasn't entirely sure if he was on his side or not. He did, however, take full advantage of the momentary obstacle and pulled himself out the window, onto the fire escape. Oh God, had it always been this high up? Breathe. Just breathe. He moved quickly over to the ladder and began climbing down as fast as possible without falling and breaking his neck.

As Tassek descended, French could be heard from his apartment. Looks like those two had been taken back to their old roots.

He had to close his eyes partway down, and when he reached the ground he was shaking a little. Where could he go now? Terezi's dad knew where he lived and had said himself that he was intent on killing him. Her apartment seemed like a bad idea too, since he probably had figured out where she lived as well, and he didn't want to impose. He'd gotten the original information from Cale, so that was a bust. Who did he know who wasn't quite a part of this, whom Daniel couldn't track down as easily? Only two faces came to mind, and one was a much worse idea than the other. He'd rather not get assaulted in his sleep by an obsessive vampire, thanks. Not as if Ren was any more trustworthy. God, this was such a problem...he paced back and forth for a few minutes while he thought about this before going to find at least temporary shelter at the library. Ah, library, thou shalt never abandon me.

Tip tap. Click clack. That was currently the only noise being heard from a keyboard. I was currently playing World of Warcraft as I waited for some of my other guild-mates to come online. I received an incoming call from my skype. I really do enjoy the fact I forwarded my phone calls to it. I grabbed my headset and put it on before answering. "And what you might be calling this time for? You get locked out again?" I answered.

"Ha,ha very funny." Dameien greeted. "No, but this is actually important. Spyders is at it again."

I frowned while I kept my focus on my Priest. "And what did he do this time?"

"Terezi's dad is in town and Spyders found out about it. I can hear them about to tear each others throats out from here. I need your help."

"And why can't you do it yourself?"

"....Because I'm naked."

"Of course you are." I sighed and closed WoW. "Alright, what do you want me to do?"

"Warn Terezi that a shit storm is about to happen. Also mentioning the fact that my neighbor, which coincidentally happens to be her new fuckmate as I found out, has snuck out through the window. No idea where he went."

"Will do." So she's dating someone now. Huh. :"She still got a phone?"

"Yeah. "

"Even better. Let me get to work." I hung up the skype called and did some back tracing. Within a few minutes, I was able to find Terezi's phone number. I added it into my skype and relaxed in my chair as I called the number.

2015-05-06 23:34:36

🌀

I was trying to be constructive and clean out under the couch cushions when the phone rang. Terezi was currently in the shower, and I was grateful for the excuse to abandon the surprisingly filthy task. I picked up the phone and stared at it for a moment before tracking down the green button. That was 'answer', right? Seemed like it, because when I put it to my ear I could hear sound from the other end. "Hello? Terezi Pyrope's apartment." In retrospect, that may have not been the most intelligent of greetings. If it was a hostile, they would now know that they'd gotten the number right, and if not, misunderstandings could occur. Too late to fix it now, though.

I raised an eyebrow. Was this the boy Dameien was talking about. It didn't seem like it. "Excuse me if i'm interrupting anything, but are you the one who is Dameien's neighbor?" Though in the back of my mind, I knew he wasn't. Even more weird.

2015-05-06 23:43:16

🌀

Dameien? Was that our neighbor? They didn't seem like a 'Dameien'. "I'm afraid you may be mistaken, though I don't actually know our neighbor's name. Do you require something?" This conversation gave me an odd feeling, which settled in the back of my mind along with the vague wonder of how my accent sounded over the phone. These devices are quite odd. At least this one wasn't screaming at me.

2015-05-06 23:47:37

●

Our? Nope. Not him. "Well then that answers my questions. About a couple minutes ago I received a call from well...I guess you could say my other half." Wait, no, that sounded gay. "Friend, mostly. And he has informed me that Spyders and Daniel have both been found in a room together. It is more then likely these two will fight more then a warlock and priest do during a skype call. Though, my problem is that they were found in his neighbors apartment, and he mentioned something about warning Terezi about them, as her boyfriend, who IS his neighbor, was just fleeing from the apartment."

2015-05-06 23:52:16

🌀

It took me a moment to process that rambling wall of information. "I..don't quite understand your simile, but....wait, darling's -- good heavens, why both simultaneously?? At least he escaped, thank you for the warning, but do you happen to know where he might be...?"

2015-05-06 23:58:33

●

"Not sure. I wasn't given him enough information to track him either, sadly. And who might you be?" I asked.

2015-05-06 23:59:45

🌀

I ran a hand through my hair and thought about where he might be. The library, perhaps? It wasn't as if he had any other public places where he loitered regularly. Unless he'd gone to Cale or someone instead. Unlikely. "Seculus. Terezi's hopefully temporary roommate, no offense to her. And yourself?"

2015-05-07 00:03:52

●

"Eilliot. Terezi's....." How do I put this into human terms? "Friend's friend." Yeah, that sounds about right. "Though right before I called you I was Raphael-the-Great."

2015-05-07 00:06:23

🌀

"A pleasure to make your acquaintance, then, and.....what?" Did he change names on a regular basis? His status as friend once removed explained why I hadn't heard of him before.

2015-05-07 00:07:57

●

"It's a game term, thing." I gestured then realized he couldn't see me. "So how did you find out Terezi? I'm sure you two have quite the story."

2015-05-07 00:10:01

🌀

"....yes, you could say that." Was there any possible way to explain it casually? No, an alternate story would probably be a better bet. "I met her through...a close friend?" Not exactly a lie. Not at all, in fact.

2015-05-07 00:16:12

●

I reached for a pen and slowly started to click it as I swayed the chair back and forth. "Seems like Terezi has all the friends now. What is she doing, currently? I don't think she would of had you answer her phone for no reason."

2015-05-07 00:18:52

🌀

It seemed impolite to specify. "She's busy. And no, her amount of allies has been steadily decreasing."

2015-05-07 00:39:22

●

"Oh? And why is that?" What have I been missing out on?

2015-05-07 00:39:56

🌀

"Grudges and misunderstandings, mostly."

2015-05-07 00:41:27

"Yeeeeeeaaaah, she's wonderful at those." Another pen click. "Well, I'm sure it's nothing she can handle. " She has the help of me now, after all, even if she doesn't recognize me. I glanced at the clock. Guess it'd be time to better introduce myself. "Think she'd mind if I started to come over?"
