[Action]

[For those in the town square this fine day, they may find a red blur falling out of the sky and straight into the fountain with a loud scream and a crash. Grell is back in Luceti, looking like a drowned rat, and none too pleased to be here.]

WHY CAN'T YOU LEAVE ME SOMEWHERE RATIONAL?!

[Voice]

...Does anyone know where I can find a good hair product? That bloody fountain seems to have ruined my beautiful locks and since I can't blow that thing up, I may as well take care of this.

And for those who are wondering? Yes, the parlour is still going up. Even if kills me. Or one of you.

Alright... That's a book, right?

Hmm. that does sound like a problem. It might help if you were nicer to it. Things like being treated well.

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

... [Oh my goodness, is this a child? Maybe it is. Would explain the strange questions and almost...saccharine naivety. Cute.]

Yes, a book. An important one. Perhaps looking into one would help you understand a little better all these wondrous things about you.

And your suggestion, while cute, is a little misplaced. I didn't choose to be thrown into that thing. It's out to get me.

[voice]

[angelicamber]

Oh, that sounds lovely. I'll go to the library later and see if I can find one.

Someone through you into the fountain? I think they're the source of your problems, then.

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

Yes, dear, you do that. Let me know when you do, hm? We'll make a party of it. [</sarcasm>]

It's entirely the Malnossos' faults, yes, but if that fountain didn't exist, perhaps they'd stop throwing me in it.

[voice]

[angelicamber]

Oh, all right! [< /sarcasm > is an unrecognized html tag. Uncorrectable error occurred.]

The Malnosso seem to make a lot of trouble for everyone. Between the experiments and the kidnappings, it can be very tiresome. But please, don't take out your anger on the fountain!

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

[/sob]

Someone has to pay for this, don't you agree? And if I can't reach the Malnosso, I may as well-- [Ugh, sigh.] It was hypothetical anyway.

[voice]

[angelicamber]

I don't know if anyone has to pay. It's just water, isn't it? I'm glad to hear that you were speaking hypothetically, though.

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

Water, when your hair is having a bad day, is no longer just water.

[voice]

[angelicamber]

Hair can have bad days? [Guess who has divinely perfect hair at all times.]

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

If I were home? No.

Here? Unfortunately, yes.

[can you hear the exasperation in her voice, kohaku? can you hear it?]

[voice]

[angelicamber]

Have you tried... um... brushing it? [That's something humans do with their hair, right?!]

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

Dearest, it's cute how utterly clueless you are, but don't you think I would have at least tried that?

[voice]

[angelicamber]

I'm not clueless! I'm just... not used to how humans take care of their hair. I guess I can't be of much help here...

[And now she feels bad for shouting, because she is kind of clueless when it comes to hair care.]

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

Tomato, to-mah-toh. It's all the same really.

Just help me curse the fountain and we'll be even, hm?

[voice]

[angelicamber]

I'm sorry, I don't know how to curse things. Attack magic in general is beyond me, I'm afraid...

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

...You are an innocent little thing, aren't you?

[voice]

[angelicamber]

People have said that about me before. I'm not so sure, myself. [She did kind of openly rebel against God at one point...]

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

Why not? You certainly seem the innocent sort--

Unless you have something dark you're hiding. Oooh, you're suddenly so much more interesting. Come now, out with it.

[voice]

[angelicamber]

N-no! Nothing dark! I mean, there were demons, but I was only loosely involved with them! And one of them was just there to bully me...

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

Demons, you say....? What sort of demons?

[voice]

[angelicamber]

Just... demons. Two cat-women, two people with black wings who eat souls. Kokuyo reformed, though, I think...

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

[Black wings? Eat souls?

well...

Wait.]

...Reformed? How does one reform from one's only food source?

[voice]

[angelicamber]

I'm not entirely certain myself, but he never ate anything except human food. Hisui-sama said that he agreed to eat with her after she gave up her position as an archangel, so that's probably why.

[voice]

[deadlyjuliet]

Darling, the way your world works is so strange to me.

Although it's rather nice to think there's one less demon we must battle for the fate of souls.

[voice]

[angelicamber]

I agree! Especially considering how powerful and scary he used to be. He's still strong, though, just not as scary... It's sad that Hisui left heaven, but I'm glad they're happy together.
