10: The hunt is on

[scaresplants]

[The SFC comes on, and Crowley looks a lot more serious than usual.]

...A few days ago, as you might have heard, a man named Aziraphale was kidnapped from his home by a man named Enjin. Right now, we have no whereabouts where he is, but before you lot go and do a search party, I have to give you a few warnings.

First of all, what Enjin looks like- well, he's a catboy. I mean, he has glasses, this really tacky fur coat, and these two cat ears on his head. And most of the time he looks incredibly smug. But don't let his ridiculous appearance make you think that he's not hostile.

Enjin is dangerous. Don't think that your mighty magical powers or prowess in fighting will be able to defeat him. He can read your mind like a book, and even cast illusions to make himself seem like he's your friend. Overall, he's not easy to beat, so don't go rushing onwards like chickens with your heads cut off, because it will not help you.

Akina Hiizumi knows about the guy- ask him if you have any questions.

Let's get Aziraphale back where he belongs.

Stay where you are and don't go outside unless you have somebody else with you. He came for Aziraphale first, he might come for you next. If you see him, run the other direction and don't look back.

...Once I find you, I will tear your head off and feed you your own kidneys. What you did to the angel will never be forgotten, you toerag.

[Self medication yeah!

She pours him a glass and hands it to him.]

Do you think your friend will be okay?

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

...

[He simply downs the glass in one go, looking particularly serious.]

I don't know.

[effier.livejournal.com]

[Cue Effy handing him the whole bottle.]

It'll be okay.

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

[Oh my someone, you are a lifesaver. He stares at it before taking a sip.]

That's what you say.

[effier.livejournal.com]

No, that's what everyone here says.

[She crosses her arms.]

Shit happens.

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

[He nods.] You are one hundred percent correct on that.

[effier.livejournal.com]

Just don't do anything stupid while it's happening, okay?

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

Who do you think I am, a guy who just gets himself into trouble whenever he can? Trust me, I'm looking out for myself, too.

[effier.livejournal.com]

Good.

[She's not fully understanding the whole thing, though. She hadn't seen Enjin's post yet. She didn't even know who he was besides Crowley's description.]

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

[Another swig of the bottle. Oh, that feels good.]

So, anything life-changing happen to you since we last saw each other? Or same old same old?

[effier.livejournal.com]

No. I mean, I stayed with Sadik for a bit, but that's all.

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm? Who's Sadik?

[effier.livejournal.com]

He's kind of new here? Lives in that new area, the Coral Corral.

[She shrugs.]

He's got a lion as a pet.

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

Oh. Lion. Sounds good.

[Oh, alcohol, how do we enjoy thee. Another swig.]

Do you like him?

[effier.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he's fun.

[She quirks an eyebrow at him, wondering where he's going with this, if anywhere at all.]

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

[He laughs as he leans against the kitchen counter to keep his balance.]

Good-looking, I suppose?

[effier.livejournal.com]

[She gives him a bit of a smile.]

Tony, maybe we should change the subject.

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

[Crowley just smirks.]

Sure, whatever you say.

[effier.livejournal.com]

Something on your mind about that, Tony?

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

Nope. Just curious.

[effier.livejournal.com]

[She shrugs.]

Okay, anyway, you can finish off that bottle if you want.

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

Thanks a bunch.

[And he really does. You see, Crowley doesn't cry or emote when things aren't going his way. He simply drinks.]

A-aren't you going to drink sssssomething?

[effier.livejournal.com]

No, not right now.

[She can't help but laugh a bit.]

If you puke, or anything, anywhere, you're cleaning it up.

[scaresplants.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, daemon- demons don't puke. Not that I know of.

[A laugh.]

...You're pretty.

[effier.livejournal.com]

Do they fall down, then?

[She's amused. Very amused.]

I know.
