sometime by the end of the month
and all through the clinic,
not a creature was stirring,
Oh wait, Satan is.
Mostly on the lookout for her servant, she walks through the clinic popping her head into every room she passes.]
Hennnnr—uh, I mean, Edwarrr—wait, what am I saying? Berserker! Where are you?
no subject
Yes? In here, what is it?
no subject
...but barefoot. Lucifer always goes barefoot whenever possible.]
I was reading a book about the drabwurld earlier and I can't remember where it is. [She probably knows exactly where it is.] Have you seen it?
no subject
Hm, perhaps the bedrooms? Where have you been recently, shall I help you to look?
no subject
[From how quick that response was, it's likely she was going to ask him to look for it anyway.]
It shouldn't take long, so you can get back to all your science-y stuff in a minute.
no subject
[What is this. It's not as if Lucifer doesn't have all the time in the world, does she think 'Servant' is a literal title... But he doesn't really mind, so he smiles, and heads up the stairs to look there first, calling out.]
Would you like some tea, by the way?
no subject
Anyway, she leans out of the room she's in to look up at him ascending the stairs when she responds.]
First thing's first! [A beat.] We can have tea after.
[Then goes back to looking downstairs.
He'll find the book eventually in one of the upstairs rooms. At the very least she ain't no slob, so it's just sitting on a table by itself.]
no subject
Here you are, something from the library at Caer Scima...?
[And will get on making tea after handing it over. Always tea.]
no subject
Yeah. One thing that's got me is the monarchs; I've heard of all the other stuff here, but their names don't mean anything to me. I know Morla's a river on Earth, but I think that's just a coincidence.
And Reul...
(..."Hêlêl ben Sāḥar. Morning star, son of the Dawn. Fragment of Me."...)
...well, the less said about that imposter, the better.
no subject
1/3
[Considering...well, everything.]
Shade's still too general though...at least as a name—
no subject
It's not that her sentence finished; some sound trailed off at the end, so it's almost as if something interrupted her mid-sentence and she got distracted. But that sense of awareness plaguing her now, of all the bizarre things across the drabwurld, the connection that briefly links them all and speaks of conflict, of war between greater powers and the men below them, of ends.
The end is coming. The Shuck...the beast whose attention they sought to escape at Samhain.
And there will be war between us all. The Hart...the reason she'd spent a month as a cat.
But what shocks her senses the most is the fear instilled in her from all of this. Lucifer wasn't designed to feel emotions, and for all the emotion becoming a demon had given her...fear wasn't something she'd experienced before, simply put. It's the first time she's experienced this - the tightening in her throat, the anxiousness, every inch of her body wracked by this sensation...and being in this limited form it's a little overwhelming.
She really, really hates the drabwurld.]
no subject
Then there's a not-so-light THUMP, as Lucifer's entire body gives and she drops like a sack of bricks. The others experiencing this might not have this hard a time dealing with it, but the depths of Lucifer's emotional capacity is...tricky. Shoving this sensation on her so suddenly is difficult, and in the moment she didn't know how to deal with it, she effectively shut down.
But it's vivid even now in her mind. What she'd felt...it wasn't good. Even like this she feels a great distress she can't shake off, more than likely pinging Jekyll pretty hard.]
no subject
The moment he realises, he runs from the kitchen back into the other room, with all the speed of a Servant behind him. Well, as much as he can manage as a Powerless Shell. His Noble Phantasm is in the laboratory, in his coat pocket - but at least now he has learned to summon it to him, something he is very grateful for at the moment, as he is almost certain he'll need it, especially after hearing that thud. He rushes into the room with the phial in hand, stopper already pulled from it, ready to drink to defend his Master and his home from what ever threat there may be. Terrifying as it may be to imagine something that could harm the devil himself.]
Master--!
[He shouts to her the moment he leaps into action, and the word is hardly out of his mouth before he's at her side. There's nothing there, though. In one sense, that's a relief. In another, worse still. Kneeling by her side, Jekyll lifts her body into his arms, under her knees and around her back, holding her against his chest.]
What is it, are you alright?
[Whether or not he gets an answer, and no matter what that answer may be, he's taking her to a bed.]
no subject
The strangest thing about it all is...well, Hikaru was always meant to make people think vulnerability, sure. Like she was naive, too cheerful, too friendly or unused to the war going on all around them - but she always carried herself with such confidence it seemed like trying to instill this kind of fear into her wouldn't work. The kind of person whose head you could threaten to rip right off and she'd kill the tension by dismissing it with an inappropriate response.
But now, the girl he's carrying is a small, frightened thing. Unable to defend that image of That Which Is Feared rather than That Which Fears, it lays in his arms almost powerless and shaken to it's core, trembling and mumbling beyond it's control. Her eyes tightly shut and jaw clenched, alongside the distress clear in her expression, only now does "Hikaru" seem truly vulnerable. Lucifer just never wanted it like this.]
no subject
He holds the girl tight, whispering calm reassurances as he climbs the stairs to take her to a bedroom and lay her down on top of a bed. There he sits on the edge, placing a hand on her forehead to check for fever or sweat, free hand taking up one of hers to squeeze. With one last squeeze with both hands around hers, he dashes off for a bowl of water and a cloth. Berserker doesn't know if that even can help someone like Lucifer, but it's worth a try. Maybe it's more for his own peace of mind than anything. He's back in an instant, and folds the cool cloth to drape over her forehead.]
It's alright, breathe deeply and don't worry about saying anything, Master. You mustn't give yourself any more stress.
1/2
...raises her head. She's confused more than anything right now, and when she sits up the cloth on her forehead falls off onto her lap, but it appears to go completely ignored. Still trying to find her bearings for the moment, Lucifer lifts a hand and drops it on the cloth, acknowledging it finally, squeezing the material.
But she lets go of that pretty quick and looks around, taking in the room - recognizing it after not long. They're still in the clinic.
"How attentive-" She thinks. "-for one who was so devout when we first spoke".]
no subject
Bwuh?
[........not back to her full, eloquent form just yet.
She wanted to say something more appropriate but did the verbal equivalent of falling down the stairs on the first step.]
master, pls
He sits up when she does, watching her closely for any signs of - well, anything really.]
-How do you feel?
My noble phantasm: refuse to rp lucifer seriously enough
[His actual question goes ignored in favor of what she thinks is more important. Pragmatic as hell, you might say.]
A war between the gods. It's just over the horizon.
it's what hikaru's for
[His eyes widen, full of some sense of dread and horror. But this is more Hyde's territory. With the bedside manner no longer needed and talk of war, he doesn't care to sit around only listening secondhand. Between Jekyll's current weakness of mind for the shock, and feeling it to be a safe time and place for Hyde in general, there's no fight or sign of the change but for the simple facts of it. One moment he's Jekyll, the next, Hyde.]
A vision of some sort?
no subject
[She doesn't miss a beat, talking as if they're the same person.
...which they sort of are.]
It's hard to explain. But...there's no mistaking it. The Shuck, the Hart...countless others as well.
no subject
[Then they were both right to be afraid. No wonder it came as such a shock to her.]
no subject
["a god" she wants to say, but that's only an answer for people who mistake her for one. In terms of what she is, she's not that dissimilar from them...
Although she would never willingly use the term to describe herself.]
If I'm even to be involved, but...I'm not sure. Things like this tend to be infuriatingly vague. For now that's all I know.
