Another voice test brought on by that stupid moon XD

[apprisingreaper]

[A very tall, very dark, and very sinister figure is standing on the tallest building it could find in the world, its four black wings unfurled as it surveys its surroundings.]

This is not Tartarus. I assumed I would be summoned there once the time came.

...Still, the world is the world, correct? And I must end it. It does not matter where the Fall begins, just that it does begin.

[The terrified mun squeaks from her spot hiding under the couch that maybe this isn't the world he was originally in!]

...

Other worlds?

It does not matter, which ever world I am taken to will end.

[Greeeeeeaaaat. Mun's starting to regret this.]

[afoolsjourney]

[Again?]

[apprisingreaper]

[Yes. Again. Haven't you heard the rumours, Minako?

The Avatar notices her, but isn't entirely sure what she is doing here. Last time it was Minato...]

... Is it your fate to stop me now?

[afoolsjourney]

[Well, yes, but she thought her mun was just being silly as usual.]

If it's really going to happen, then...yes.

[It's kind of sudden, but you have to do what you have to do.]

[trololoki]

Oh, hey Nyx.

[handshakegreeting]

[Weeeeelcome to the club.] They all so wish for the absolute end in their hearts, do they not?

[withthisherringseal]

...

[No words need to be said.]

[apprisingreaper]

[Oddly enough, muse took this whole thing much more serious that mun, which resulted in this journal.]

It's a shame. I did not wish for you to suffer as well.

[apprisingreaper]

[What? Someone knows this form? Odd. Although the Avatar does find this person slightly familiar...]

Loki. I am surprised that you are here. I would have assumed you would be in hiding at this time.

[apprisingreaper]

Of course. All of them, deep down, have called for me. And so I have come.

... Have you been summoned by them as well?

[apprisingreaper]

I still find it strange that you are alive.

[Geez Minato just stay dead so I don't have to kill you over and over.]

[trololoki]

Nah. I mean, it's the turning of a calendar. Not exactly a sailing-of-fingernail-ships occasion. The end of an era isn't the end of the world. But hey, humans are dumb.

Coffee?

[apprisingreaper]

I suppose they are... dumb. They are the ones who wished for this, and now so many of them are trying to stop it.

[...You just offered Nyx coffee? Um, its face is kinda stuck in a permanent grin, drinking isn't really an option. Nyx just... looks at Loki, that smile somehow looking disapproving.]

[trololoki]

*More for him, then. He puts up his feet and enjoys a nice hot cup.*

How are the kids? Death and that other one. The sunny one too I guess.

[apprisingreaper]

As far as I can sense, Hypnos and Hemera are fine, as are the others. I have borrowed Thanatos's form for now, until my power is completely called down.

[And boy, does Thanatos hate being body jacked. It's creepy!]

[big_blue_boyscout]

No one's ending the world. Not on my watch.

[apprisingreaper]

Who are you to believe you can stop me? The last one who tried to sacrificed their life to keep me sealed away. But that seal is gone now.

[thousandcurses]

I kindly ask that you not destroy anything.

[Post-true ending Izamommynami wouldn't like that.]

[apprisingreaper]

... Izanami. I thought you would be desiring this as well. Why do you wish for me to stop?

[thousandcurses]

I only wish to fulfill humanity's desires. And I have come to realize that above all else, they desire to choose their own paths. It is not our place to interfere.

[big_blue_boyscout]

Someone who won't quit fighting as long as I'm still breathing, and there's no shortage of people like me.

[apprisingreaper]

Just because there is no shortage of heroes, doesn't mean you will all necessarily survive. The Fall is destined to end everything... and everyone.

[big_blue_boyscout]

I don't care. We'll fight you, and we'll stop you. Bigger and worse have tried and failed.

[apprisingreaper]

But it has never been their place to choose their paths. It is why goddesses such as us exist.

[sealkun]

[ no. ]

[apprisingreaper]

I am a deity. I don't expect there to be many 'bigger' than me.

[It's not smug-sounding at all, just a statement of fact, like everything that comes out of this monster. The double-toned voice is almost completely emotionless.]
