TrippyNightmareLiam Matthews
Liam watched Aloise for a moment or two as she asked him further about the shapeshifter, eventually he chuckles awkwardly, realising he had no real leads to give her. "Uh, no, not really..." He'd scratch at the back of his neck, shrugging. "I've only seen it once, at the town meeting yesterday, she complimented me for making the press take their stolen generators back to the hospital." He explained, watching her quietly afterward. While he was waiting for any further input from her however, his attention was stolen by something far more dramatic.
Turning his gaze toward Sariel as she appeared, he seemed confused at first, and a little nervous as he looked toward Aloise, as if to gauge her reaction. Looking back to Sariel as she spoke suddenly, he seemed still confused, not quite yet understanding the weight of her words. "Sariel, what do you mean, who has risen?" As he was speaking however, the thoughts became clear in his mind. Her brother could only mean so many people, and from how distraught she was, which one wasn't too far to put together. As the look of realization crossed his face, he gulped somewhat.
"Oh. Crap."
Darren Andrews
"Well, shit." Darren wandered back down the stairs in Howard's home, into the room where his body lay and he'd left Jade. He gave her a momentary look of concern, she was clearly different, certainly not as talkative as she had been in her previous life, but he supposed Hell sucked that out of you. Part of him wondered if it might've been cruel to bring her back, to give her a break from the suffering and possibly just damn her back to it. Now that the angel blade had eluded him, he had no idea where it could've gone, or where he could get another.
Sighing, he scratched at his chin as he looked over at her. "You manage to find anything down here? Any hints or..?" Again, he frowned as he watched Jade, he didn't know what to say to her in any situation, he hadn't known her desperately well in the first place, but it already seemed like he was back to square one. On one hand, it felt good to see her still alive, to know he'd done at least something to put an end to her suffering, but now he couldn't help but be racked with a different kind of guilt, the kind where he had to force himself not to admit that he may have fucked both of them over, put them in way too deep.
He already regret his deal, he should've bartered for some better deal than the reapers, something he knew he could kill with something else, he just needed something to make sure she wasn't about to get dragged back. But it didn't seem like he might've been that lucky. Sighing again, he stood there quietly, watching Jade and waiting for any answer.
Javier Crypt
Javier let the right corner of his mouth curl upward in a twisted smirk, his fingers trailing along he sides as she spoke. "Well my beloved, we'll just have to find ourselves a replacement for it, won't we?" He purred as he felt her finger running gently along the line of his jaw, the mere touch sending an icy chill down his spine. It was truly as if she was running an ice cube along his jawline, so cold, refreshing and even unnerving. He adored it.
Hearing the words against his ear only served to send another chill down his spine, his body pressing back against her own as he let his arms shift around her body, a finger trailing idly up the length of her spine in a feather touch, letting his heat burn through her slowly, spreading throughout her coldness in a flurry of passion. Slowly, he shifted his head down, lips brushing a mere inch from here own as he pushed forward, granting her a brief but passionate, firey kiss in the moments before the Cauldron bubbled over and exploded.
The walls were covered, as was the floor, and more importantly, the two of them. Javier didn't mind, in fact, he was more amused by the turn of events than anything. Grinning as he looked about for a moment, he looked back toward his love, leaning forward to steal another kiss, letting his tongue flick out to taste a bit which had landed just on the corner of her mouth, pulling back as he licked his own lips clean. "Delicious." He grinned in a coy manner, slowly letting his hands leave her as he moved to stand up straight, beginning to work off his coat as he knew full well it would need to be washed.
