It's time for another FAMILY MEETING!!

[carpevinum]

[There's a sign posted on 3-C on the 27th the future is now indicating that it's that time of month! That's right, it's time for the family meeting!

Lucifer is in charge this time and he is holding a whip, so please behave yourselves or you might get a warning crack near your head. Or don't behave yourselves. He's not your dad. He will, however, try his hardest to keep you all on track.

As Lucifer is also one of the Team Moms Dads, he's also made everybody lunch as he is wont to do. The rather fancy-looking food is set up on a couple of desks at the front of the classroom to peruse at your leisure. There are cookies and muffins as well, but please try to eat a real lunch instead of subsisting off of sweets entirely.

On the whiteboard, Lucifer has written the following topics & talking points that he'd like to discuss with everybody, and has requested that you all raise your hands so that this can be done in an orderly fashion... Good luck, Luci.

• Who is missing? Who is confirmed deceased?
• The gladiatorial battle — is it possible that those who died previously may come back to inflict further harm? Any guesses?
• What the Hell was going on last weekend?
• The void in the auditorium is infinite
• Results of last month's investigations that we agreed on doing
• The imps plaguing the school have been removed (thank you to Clamor for his assistance)
• Have we discovered anything new?

Last but not least, the final bullet is one hundred percent something that Lucifer clearly wants to do, and it reads simply:

• Instating a chore chart

So that's... fun.]

Let's try to keep this more orderly than the last one, shall we?

[And yes, the cardboard baby jail is set up in the back of the classroom! Naughty children go to cardboard baby jail. Naughtier children get a whip cracked at them. Have fun, everyone!]



[[OOC: The usual rules of the family meeting posts apply, which means threadjacking/general mingling is allowed and encouraged! Please remember to only share information your character discovered ICly to avoid metagaming. Also no Lucifer will not actually cause physical harm to anyone's characters with the whip unless player permission is granted, I'm not as psychotic as he is, don't worry about it.]]

Yeah like what? [ Squints back at her. He hates kids. ]

[closewithnewintown]

Stuff.

[...] I don't want you running off and asking my questions! He has to be surprised; he won't admit anything good if he knows what's coming.

[dangernoises]

... [ He cants his head, and gets what he expects out of a answered question like that. ] You never even met him and youre already deciding what kind of person he is like? [ Rather darkly he leans forward and states in a sharp manner. ]

Do you really think someone who somehow always knows you kill someone and is apart of the system that rewards ya with merit points. To be someone to not understand or see your stupid shit comin'?

[closewithnewintown]

I have met him. And if he was dumb enough to assume I'd killed somebody then, he'll be dumb enough for it now. I wasn't even trying last time.

[dangernoises]

[ Hyde cant help but let out a laugh. ] What a fuckin' child!!! You assume people are they way they act when you meet them? You are soooooo!! Fucked youre gunna end up dead next.

[closewithnewintown]

Yeah, I'm a-a "fuckin' child!" A child that's gonna learn why we're all trapped here, and how to get us out!

What did you learn when you met with him, hm? Nothing, I bet! 'Cause you're weird.

tw threatenign a child with a knife

[dangernoises]

[ Only to make light on what she is accusing him of, Hyde flips his sword out in a flurry of golden colors. Summoning it with absolute ease and dexterous as he is. Manages to lean forward and press the NONSHARP edge of it along her cheek. Tapping it. Looking down at her. ]

I killed two people already, do you wanna see my tallies? I still have a meeting with him, I been avoidin'. Weird when, you do - which you wouldn't know. You start feelin' like shit.

[ This is hilarious when you realize Hyde got goaded by a child and is throwing a tantrum. ]

How about that for a little information for your stupid ass head. Go tell your little friends since no one here wants to play this schools freak ass murder game but me.

[closewithnewintown]

[she's just. still. maintaining eye contact, trying to school her expression as neutral as she can get it.]

Because it's a stupid game. It's a game you can't win.

[glances at the sword, then back at him.]

You already lost just by playing.

[dangernoises]

Hooooo...?

[ Hyde flicks his Knife - I meant knife. Not sword. Against her cheek over and over again. ]

The rules change depending on what player you are, just because you think youre on the right side doesn't mean shit. How about you come kill me next? Then go see counselor freak for yourself.

He'll tell you for yourself, that youre wrong.

[closewithnewintown]

[what is a sword but a knife what is long.]

I'm not letting anybody die. Not even people that deserve it.

... And you only half-deserve it, anyhow.

[dangernoises]

[ Baby sword. dodo dododooo.... ]

Awwww, youre like Master.

[ The knife flips and disappears into a flicker of golden sparks. Pats her head. ]

Okay, only because you reminded me of Master and I miss her. I will help, wanna go with me to see the counselor?

[closewithnewintown]

[exhales oh thank god she can breathe again. dealing with crazy people is stressful.]

I already went with somebody else to see him; that's why I know I need my own, real appointment if I'm ever gonna get anything. Anything else, and he'll just close the door.

[dangernoises]

[ He snickers. And beams. ]

Not unless... there is another way. You want in? Eh? Eh?

[closewithnewintown]

No murders. [WAGS FINGER AT HIM] Legion is already being really nice and letting me use them for a fake murder! We don't need one now!

[dangernoises]

... Eh I already murdered so its too late. Anywayyyyy, one question. Was there magic on your world?

[ Magic, is a false statement or claim really its more Thaumatic application of mana transfusion in many different ways. Magic, however was a simple way of answering these things to those who are not entirely acquitted to such things.

Hes aware there are people watching, as if to say.... They are watching what hes doing. ]

[closewithnewintown]

[a frown] Yeah, there's magic. I mean, I don't have any, but I've seen it before... Why?

[dangernoises]

Okay, listen.

[ He leans over with his hands in his pockets to whisper to her. Mun will message you what he says. ]

That good? Can you say that or are you gunna wuss out?

[closewithnewintown]

[the frown increases the longer he speaks.]

... Why are the words different? Those aren't the ones she used.

[dangernoises]

...

[ Thats interesting and it pauses him to look at her.... Funny how life works. ]

It's different, because I am different.

[ Thats the truth, and because he is rather surprised that she even knows what he said. As well as the fact, knew his own master. Hyde states that rather plainly and calmly. ]

Do you wanna help everyone here or not?

[closewithnewintown]

Unless that banishes you back to Crazytown, I can't see how it'd help anybody.

... You thought I didn't know what it was. You were trying to trick me. [...] What would have happened if I said it?

[dangernoises]

Crazytown - the fuck ...? Don't you know what happened after? Or no?

[ Hyde raises a brow questionably. ]

[closewithnewintown]

... When she said it the right way, it summoned a hero... Does the way you do it summon a villain?

[since he's obviously one of those. that must be what makes it different.]

[dangernoises]

I'm an Anti-hero. [ Again he's only compliant to such information because he is lacking the typical status effects that would make him more.... Genuinely out of his mind as an agent of chaos. So he's truthful, also because .... He kinda needs this. And because he is taking advantage of Stephanies age & lack of knowledge as well as their connections with those who would be able to do better. Putting himself in the hands of someone like... Lucifer... That was a horrible idea to him. ] Just because I dont do shit the regular way you guys do, don't mean anything.

[closewithnewintown]

Anti-heroes don't randomly murder people! They're just kinda sad and wear dark colors!

[still... she sighs, putting her hands on her hips, looking up at him, and reciting in a calm, clear voice:]

Heed my words: My will creates your body, and your sword creates my destiny.
If you heed the Grail's call and obey my will and reason, then answer me.
Let your eyes clouded in chaos,
Thou whom is bound in a cage of madness.
Do as I will, and I will guide your madness with my destiny.
I am she who will command this chaos.

[carpevinum]

[Lucifer has the whip out and is pulling it taut by the time that knife disappears. You were so close to getting a warning lash obnoxiously close to your ears, Hyde. So close. He's watching you. Like a hawk.

You're on the thinnest ice possible, kid.]
