homeless; canon is Animamundi: Dark Alchemist

[faustianpact]

What sort of nonsense are you dragging me into? You understand how important my business is. There are things that I can't simply stop because of your careless whims! I'm not one to be crossed.

There is something I do want to inquire about, however. What's this about this devil, this Lucifer, that keeps trying to see Lilith? He should show his face. To think that a devil is trying to corrupt my sister...

I won't stand for this.

[strippedofgrace]

Figured I'd meet y'eventually.

[faustianpact]

Aye, devil, I'm here.

[strippedofgrace]

So, got somethin' to say to me?

[faustianpact]

What are you trying to achieve by seeing Lilith?

[strippedofgrace]

Not leavin' her alone in a dark basement most of the day, for starters.

[faustianpact]

If I could do my research without the need for money, I would be at her side more constantly. For now, this arrangement is the best for her condition. I doubt a devil being by her side is any better.

[strippedofgrace]

Gets lonely, doesn't it? 's not like I'm gonna tell anybody else.

[faustianpact]

Are you in league with Mephistopheles?

[..well, he might as well ask.]

[strippedofgrace]

Nope.

[Simple answer.]

[faustianpact]

... Good.

[strippedofgrace]

Lemme guess. Asshole who likes to make deals?

[faustianpact]

Simply put, I wouldn't be surprised if he took an interest in Lilith.

[strippedofgrace]

I'd punch him if he showed up near me.

[faustianpact]

And Lilith?

[strippedofgrace]

Yeah, I'll defend yer sister's virtue for you.

[faustianpact]

I have doubts that her 'virtue' would be any safer with a different devil near.

[strippedofgrace]

Implyin' what?

[faustianpact]

Her soul, Lucifer!

[strippedofgrace]

Don't want it.

[faustianpact]

I have my doubts about that.

[strippedofgrace]

Yer a suspicious guy.

[faustianpact]

Is it suspicious for a brother to be worried about his sister?

[strippedofgrace]

Only if y'can't believe the truth when it's told to ya.

[faustianpact]

Is it so unusual to be wary of a devil?

[strippedofgrace]

Just 'cause it's usual, doesn't mean it's smart.

[faustianpact]

Blind trust is just as dangerous.

[strippedofgrace]

Y'could at least give me a chance.

[faustianpact]

You've seen her state--do you blame me for being careful?

[strippedofgrace]

Only in that it makes her life a little more miserable.

[stavros]

Though I understand the reasons why one would be suspicious of a devil, at the same time... *small sigh*

[faustianpact]

Given her current state, my sister isn't up to seeing visitors. A devil sneaking into our home to see her is rather concerning.

[stavros]

I am well aware of this. Generally, or at least in worlds such as mine, a devil appearing would be alarming, and I have my natural suspicions as well, although my mundane futilely assures me that this one is harmless and amusing. You do seem to care for your sister as well. That said...

[faustianpact]

Devil or human, it doesn't matter. A person sneaking into my home isn't going to receive a warm welcome.

[stavros]

*Little smile that she tries to stifle.* I thought as much. Forgive me -- I have an older brother as well, you see.

[faustianpact]

Aye, I suppose Lilith would react the same way if she were feeling better. She's rather ill at the moment, hence why she's staying at home.

[stavros]

A demon breaking in to see a sick girl who hasn't brought her any harm? I've never heard of such a thing.

[faustianpact]

You can see why I'm uneasy, then.

[stavros]

What do you know about him?

[faustianpact]

Lucifer is said to be the Prince of Darkness, the King of Hell. That he shows such an interest in my sister is alarming.

AND HERE I AM WITH MY RUSTIEST MUSE. Oh my god, it's been years since I last played.

[hellish_mephisto]

[You can just feel the malicious glee in the air as a familiar voice chuckles behind Georik.]

Who is Lucifer, Georik Zaberisk? How amusing that thou wouldst wonder about his interest in thy sister.

[faustianpact]

[He doesn't turn around. He doesn't have to.]

Mephistopheles.

[He sighs.] This devil enters her room without being detected. I would have assumed at least you would've noticed his activities.

[The irony is almost palatable. However, it isn't the King of Hell that they know that's been invading the Zaberisk mansion.]

[science_n_caramels]

Georik! Is Lilith alright? Is she hurt? Who is trying to get to her?

[His voice cracks a bit]

I-I will not stand for anyone, man or devil, to harm you...O-or Lilith!

I normally RP Lilith but I couldn't help myself

[faustianpact]

St. Germant...

[Georik sighs, he doesn't know how to explain this.]

A devil named Lucifer appears to have been sneaking into the mansion to see Lilith. She appears unharmed yet... No good can come from this.
