Rhoxane

Well now the kitchen seemed to be teeming with life and activity from others! Where Rhoxane hadn’t even bothered to look and say hello when first walking in for a drink, now her attention was split between a small group. Light- whom she assumed to be Light from what Red had said- had now offered a salute which Rhoxane would acknowledge with a quick headbob. He seemed moreso focused on his cooking, and at any rate…

Oh, this little rat man was delightful!! Poor Yuvi had leaned so far back to make space between them that he’d fallen over!! Rhoxane’s eyes dilated wide like a cat fixated on prey but she would not pounce on the poor man-- oh, no! “Oh dear!!” She crooned, holding her hands up as though to insist she was harmless, “Don’t hurt yourself over me, You’re ah-- you’re Red’s father??” She’d called him ‘dad’ a second ago! “You’ll make my dear new friend worry with all that, won’t you?” Still he wasn’t quite done with his fuss- in but a moment he was behind her, holding the chair between them. Indeed she did turn around, trying her hardest not to snicker at the display. As if a chair would protect him, really… “Please, you’re safe.”

Dracula??? Okay-- she turned away, holding a hand over her face as she choked on her laughter. Her body jittered as she hissed out snickering, “O- Ohh yeahh~ Dracula, I think I’ve heard of him!” Snicker snicker-- Oh he was trying to tell Red to set her on fire! Good lord…

“Red..” She sauntered closer to the kitsune, “Red.. you were there when I joined Gluttony~ I don’t want you to worry I’m going to hurt you! I wouldn’t…” No confirming or denying if sunlight and fire would harm her. They didn’t need to know any of that. They didn’t need to know the specifics of how she’d come to be, either- that could be pillow talk for later~ Of course, before Rhoxane could veer into any further attempts to toy with Yuvi, a new presence emerged within the Kitchen.

The vampyre could only fall silent, watching Gluttony who now floated above them. At this point, Rhoxane still hadn’t quite wrapped her head around Gluttony as an entity. She wasn’t really sure she ever would, really! Rhoxane knew that, in some way she belonged to Gluttony now but she just didn’t really get what that might entail- what was Rhoxane doing here? Her head tilted back as she continued to gaze upon the Sin, eyes fluttering slightly as she seemed to address Rhoxane now. Off to the side in her peripherals she was aware of the kitchen magically seeming to make tea on its own, as though invisible servants were performing prep work on command. “Phoenix blood.” She echoed, something within her pulsated at the thought of trying such a thing- she did not know what else had existed in her own world, but here.. Well, her options had opened up quite a bit hadn’t they?

Her hands were careful now as she accepted the cup. Now that she was making sure to breathe for sake of chitchat she would inhale the aroma of the tea as it wafted up and around her head. It beckoned her, and in turn the vampyre lifted it up to her lips and took a sip. To Rhoxane it burned as it soaked into her- not quite the acidic, punishing burn that she had felt upon cannibalising her own sibling, no. It was as though she were drinking liquid life, hot and thick with an energy that felt alien as it flowed into the black depths of what made up Rhoxane. There was a slight gleam in her eye- she maintained her silence, actually taking a momentary step away, hands shaking as she painfully resisted the urge to take it all in at once. Rhoxane rarely savored her food. This- this she wanted to take her time with. She.. probably needed to take her time with it. It was almost reverential. Yuvi would at least get a break from the vampyre, instead now earning the focus of the Vampyre’s master.

This blood did bring glorious silence to the many voices which begged Rhoxane to feed.

*when red sees Zara enter the kitchen from seemingly thin air,her eyes light up as she scampers on all fours shifting to feral fox form running passed her knew friends Light and Rhoxane to jump on Zaras shoulder curling her fluffy self around her neck as if a scarf and nuzzling her cheek*

I've been doing my best to be good! ive made friends with mr. light and im getting better accainted to Rhoxane here

*red sways her tail to and fro along Zaras neck if she were super ticklish it might give her the giggles otherwise it was just a nice brush of her soft fur against her neck*

mr light is showing me how to make tamales with bleh......corn husks he assures me though one does not need to eat the corn husk its more for......what he call it......steaming!

yuvi is here for food and i think he likes light in his own way kikiki

whatcha give to Rhoxan? phoenix blood? thats a rare thing indeed i've shifted into those birds but they are tricky to maintain there body. i had to reach a high mastery level of concentration, for more mythical magical beasts like that to even attempt to shift to one has to have a lot of .......um....chi,spirit, technique points what ever you want t call it.

Light snickered to himself enjoying the mood in the kitchen became livelier with the additional interactions, he couldn´t help but to do so as he kept piling things in a more traditional way to set things, as he didn´t have any link to the kitchen and wasn´t sure it would entertain him more than it already is by giving him what he needs, at least for now he was considered a guest, if Light had to think for a reason, it would probably be becuase Red considered him one and for that he felt grateful. And then Yuuvi had to make a a Dracula statement and Red followed up on the almost comedic manzai thrope. He iddled between interrumpting and not out of consideration but this could be a sensible subject
"Ya kno´, for a world traveler, yer bein´ a lil´stereotypical, not ev´ry vampire has ta be linked to a Dracule or Vlad Tepes like not ev´ry buttler must be a Sebastian"
He teased at Yuvi as he witnessed Rhoxane engaging the rat-man with a sole chair as a physical barrier to stop an entity like a vampire, if it was your average stereotypical vampire it had to be at least lathered with garlic or have pointy legs to be used as wooden stakes and that is to say most Living beings were also woefully weak against a stake through one´s heart, regardless if wooden or steel, same thing with sufficient fire or firepower. It was funny how back in Earth a random vampire considered himself a mighty unyielding force of supernatural caliber when it came out of its slumber and remained standstill against a rocket launcher missile since /No weapon forged by man could harm him/ but well, that was back when they used swords and arrows that gave him the time to regenarate. Light was oddly being filled with these many daydreaming thoughts, was it some sort of influene on him or was it some sort of neurodivergence situation getting him distracted, he shook is head as if to get rid of the random thoughts before resuming his engaging
"Not ev´ry vampire shares da same weakness, I like yer paranoia tho, it kept ye aliv´up ´til now, den again, ye be also wary of lil´ol´me as a predator not too long ago, es dis a recurrent theme of sorts?"
He pointed out curious as if this could be something close to natural or instinctive to Yuvi, as far as Light has heard, they both have been targeted quite a few times so it is highly likely that it became second nature for this assassin to develop such reflex about questioning other´s intent before any sliver of trust is to be given, it would at least make sense to him that way, another possibility was that this was coincidental regarding the fact that one was a mix of human cat and owl, the other a blood sucking individual that was presumably a vampire that did mention wouldn´t target animals, humanoids being preferable.
"Red shouldn´t ask that much personal info, even if a fellow Sinling, at least not in the presence of a total stranger to her, much less two, it could lead to a breach of delicate info, potentially dangerous to your friend, she might be more willing if it were a private scenario but you should not push the subject that much unless she feels comfortable"
Light said in a tone similar to that which teachers teach students in a non-condescending way, rather composed and at a relatively slow pace to give her time to reason it on her own, he didn´t want to infer a thing but also didn´t want to let the other party feel any sort of guilt about not disclosing things, even if that were not the case to begin with, social pressure can be a thing that affects even those in positions of power.
He felt a shudder across his body as his hairs stood on end and the feathers in his tuckered wings fluffed up in response to the close vicinity of the Sin currently standing in the kitchen as Zara manifested out of nothing, he now got an idea of how others usually ask him for a word of warning before he does the same, though to be honest, even if someone were to attach a bell of sorts in his neck or a sound feature that foretells his appearance it has proven innefective in regards of avoiding his friends being startled in response to that trigger too. The thought only made him relax as he left things on the table before taking a moment to settle down his keratin structure be it hair feathers,making sure not to shed anything as to not compromise the kitchen itself while he groomed himself back into a presentable visage before reaching to the sink to wash his hands, it also served the purpose to get used to the Sin´s presence, it had been years that felt ages since he had been so close to one, even Van back in the throne room felt something similar, granted he wasn´t as close but there were quitea few of the Sins gathered at the same time and not in an amiable disposition. At least Rhoxane didn´t particularly target him at the moment and even more so she seemed mesmerized by the Phoenix blood taste currently lingering in her mouth, much more of a reason to not view him as a possible source of nourishment
He dried his hands before turning back towards Red now afixed around Zara´s neck and above her shoulders like a fur accessory. He took kindly that Yuvi was apparently more fond of him as Red stated, however it was as much as possible that it was her personal take on the matter ina delusion of everyone is friends now, as much as it could be truth since she knew him the best amongst everyone here, Light of course chose the later and felt flattered to a degree. As Red was perched in the coordinates of the Sin he would change his way of speech yet again as his second nature came by default in a formal-neutral tone. Greeting her with a polite bow, keeping is back straight as he inclined is axis 25-30 degrees forward, bringing his right hand forward against his waistwhile flexing his elbow, and likewise is left hand to his back before standing straight up
"The corn husks are a necessary evil if you wish to taste them as intended, you could in theory substitute them with parchment paper, but the taste and its scent will be different, and you wouldn´t eat it either so what´s the point if the ingredient is readily available"
He gave Red a smile to reassure it was meant as straight as it was said and there were no subtle jabs or condescending meaning behind his words, he just wanted to explain the need to not stray too much from the recipe
"In theory, its always easier to maintain another shape if it resembles your main, say adopting a fox or a human visage, a kitsune if you want would be easier regardless of amount of energy, whichever you choose to use, since its closer to your nature, deviating from it alters variables and makes it harder to hold it together, and the outcomes will vary, like the tamales with corn husks versus parchment paper, since the mass of the tamal is made by corn, it works better with it than it does with the other material, and if you wish to change it, something closer like a banana tree leaf would be a better substitute than the parchment yet again, since its fibers and plant nature are akin of that of the corn husk, even if the scent and taste may subtly vary. You may sustain the same shape for longer with the help of other supplements like drives, gadgets or accesories that help you alter that nature of yours, much like reseasoning or adding addtional or extra ingredients to the mass to compensate the lack of the original ones, that is why I choose to use gadgets and drive forms whenever I shapeshift into thigns that stray away from familiar things, and even if I am more accustomed to it by now, it still less of a hassle to use those aids in the process so I can focus on other more important aspects. If you´d like I could get you some of those next time I happen to visit here"

*yuvi assumed wrong but his information on vampires was only limited to rumers after all he had,to his knowledge, never met one before (little did he know his sin might be a vampire but yuvi was usually in the dark about things not the brightest of rat demons or patient)*

*yuvi didnt feel comfortable sitting down with this blood thirsty....demon vampire thing standing up untill he seemed to since her bloodthirst satisfied by......tea?*

*yuvi sees Zara make a flashing entrance and some how instantly commanding the rooms attention despite the chaotic festivities of tamale making before hand*

*yuvi wasnt the best at opoligiese and a sweat mark formed on his brow he knew he had to appoligies to the sin of gluttony*

um......errr....Zara was it? i might have upset the previous glutton named maw....i was being over protective of red......i shouldnt have released pests in your kitchen or name called.........um.......ya......sorry *though he was apologizing he was mumbling and couldn't look her in the eye not cus he wasnt sincere but he hated showing his weakness and bowing to others. even if he WAS in the wrong.

*but his next sentence he did look at zara in her eyes*

thanks for taking care of red you better.....i mean.....i hope you continue to......take care of red.

*yuvi wasnt a very particularly threatening demon but if the ones he gave his loyalty to or care to came to harm he'ld be sure to be as annoying to anyone who caused them harm as possible*

The Sidhe listened to his words carefully, her expression neutral as he explained the potential danger of turning away at the door. Admittedly, something she had certainly considered doing when she’d been there. It seemed that as things stood- with the information she had- Eibhe had made the best decision in moving forward. The uncertainty of what this all was and what her future held beyond Mag Mell was daunting to her. Still...

After what she had done this day, she was somewhat glad she could still make at least one ‘good’ decision.

“Seth.” She would not dare repeat his given name, it felt disrespectful for her to do so even if he had let it be known. Still, it was soothing that he had offered his name like that. She dipped her head in a more proper greeting to him, her hands folded at her front. She stayed there for a moment, eyes closed though sharp ears continued to listen to as he continued with his explanations. He'd answered a question she had not spoken aloud and now Eibhe wondered; was he able to mentally read her in some way? Curious now, Eibhe looked back up to his face as he explained what he was and confirmed that it was he whom she’d pledged fealty to. Of course there were plenty of questions that came with all of this, but as he had asked she was more than willing to be patient at this moment. Right now, all she wanted to do was listen, observe, and better understand what sort of environment she’d found herself within- it would make planning her next steps easier later.

In the end, she didn’t know what she wanted to do right now. Eibhe was uneasy here... but her heart did not currently ache for Mag Mell. Perhaps homesickness would come later, she did not know.

“I assume being shown to my quarters will come regardless, Lord Seth.” Well! He’d stated he did not require such a title- yet it slipped easily off of Eibhe’s lips. She was used to high courts and the noble beasts and fae within and the mannerisms which came with such environments. Interacting with the being that stood before her… it simply felt correct. “So for now, I will follow you to the throne room.” There was a short pause, she pursed her lips, searching his face- her eyes ached from trying to find suitable purchase in maintaining eye contact. Instead, she stared at his forehead to maintain the appearance thereof, “I was wondering if I had… come in the middle of something, perhaps. So.. if I have to wait, I can.”

His eyes searched her features, the glyphs engraved into his irises spinning about his pupils, ancient technology and magicks profane reflecting his racing thoughts...

Thoughts that contemplated Damien's current state, most importantly his lifebond's current status... and more immediately, seeing to his new charge's welfare.

Envy flared in strength at Seth's mixed feeling, and his stomach turned:
A familiar cold.
He ignored it as best he could, addresing Eibhe with a frigid, but not unkind, tone.

"Come, then. Let's see what trouble the other houses have stirred up."

Before he moved to lead the way, he glanced to her over his shoulder.
"If you insist upon using title, I would prefer Lord Envy."

Should she follow, they would traverse the lengthy, dark corridor leading to the Throne Room, lit sconces shifting their flame to iridescent green hues in the presence of the particular Sin passing them. Unless Eibhe voiced further questions, Seth would remain silent, much upon his currently-burdened mind. His lips parted, but teeth clenched, physical expression of a pensive consideration; no matter the circumstance, he had to pass on some belongings to Greed.

It would be better if Lani reacquired them from what Seth hoped would be a familiar face.

As they arrived in the Throne Room, Seth finally took notice of Lust's Lesser, impaled and worse for wear, unconscious.

Envy's essence permitted the Hybrid to recognize the weapon immediately...
And he finally, visibly scowled.
"Ugh... those old wards best hold..."
The abomination muttered under his breath as he looked about, taking stock of the current members in the room, taking a single step to the side in order to draw himself closer to Eibhe.

A protective gesture, as he had not yet measured her capabilities...

So, now they would go and see what it really had been that she’d popped up in the middle of. Her head bobbed once more in a quick nod, now watching to see when he’d move. Her eyelids fluttered for a moment as he spoke once more, “Ah. Apologies, Lord Envy.” She murmured, correcting herself now that he’d stated his preference. At this point she no longer felt to be in immediate danger, and Seth might note that her expression had somewhat softened, no longer steeled to guard her emotions. It was a sad, ponderous look- the corners of her lips drew down in the hint of a frown, her gaze which did periodically search him would stare off to the side, not quite taking in the environment. Most of all she just looked tired- as though she had come here after the culmination of something that had been wearing her down for a long, long time. Well, whatever it was, it was done for now. There was new chaos for Eibhe to become privy to.

She remained silent after speaking his title, following him now. As they walked, mentally she was stretching and reaching back into the reservoir of power she held- magicks that had previously been blocked off had returned since Envy had welcomed her and there was relief there, it no longer felt as though one of her limbs had been cut off. Quietly, not wanting to make a scene but not wanting to meet any more figures in the filthy state she had been in she worked to cleanse herself. When willed so, the blood, dirt, and debris which clung sticky and dark to her form would dissipate like mist, diffusing in the air. She would still love to take a proper bath later if only to relax, but this would do for now.

As soon as the last bit of red mist vanished in the air they would enter an area that Eibhe would certainly recognize as a throne room- ‘The’ throne room, specifically. Her brow furrowed as she scanned the thrones, seeing the small gathering of people in one spot though not quite sure what was ongoing there, she deigned to keep scanning only to pause on the impaled figure. She let out a soft breath, but did not yet remark. Perhaps out of concern Envy had taken a step closer and she looked to him now, pursing her lips together. She was close enough that sharp ears could catch his murmuring and her gaze snapped back to the weapon that was sticking out of that fellow. It was ominous- Eibhe could not quite comprehend what it was about that weapon that made her want to flinch, but she did at least find pity for the man she recognized as still living. What happened here?

Honestly, she didn’t even know what she wanted to say. She just looked to Envy now, waiting for him to make his own move here or speak first. When meeting him she figured she’d come in the midst of something that had happened but this was just.. A little bit more chaotic than expected. There was a heavy mood to the atmosphere that told her to just keep her mouth shut.

Zara petted the fox fondly, nuzzling her cheek into Red's fur. "You did a great job," she praised her. "A gift, for you." Zara held out what looked like a small bead, a pearl of condensed energy from Gluttony herself. She'd created this while drawing from the humans indulging in the hookah bar's she'd constructed on Earth. The essence of indulgence, sweeter than sugar, richer than chocolate, a treat made just for Red. It would not only fill her belly, but her spiritual energy as well. Whatever magic Red possessed would be overflowing with power, if she chose to eat her gift. While scratching Red behind the ears, Zara gave Yuvi a little wave.

"Hmmmm, your apology seems sufficient. Gluttony is at peace with you," she told him. "I will take very good care of Red," she reassured him, giving her a good pet. "Are you interested in phoenix blood? I can give it to you without the hassle of transforming," she giggled. "I am also a phoenix. And Djinn. I would let you or Rhoxy have a bite," she laughed. "But I warn you: If you think you are not satisfied now, you will be left desperate for more."

On a lighter note, Zara drifted closer to Light and his tamales. "Kind of how you'll feel after eating one of these made the right way." With a pleasant smile, Zara waved to Rhoxy. "How did you like the tea? I hear my brother is quite tasty."

The thought only made him relax as he left things on the table before taking a moment to settle down his keratin structure be it hair feathers,making sure not to shed anything as to not compromise the kitchen itself while he groomed himself back into a presentable visage before reaching to the sink to wash his hands, it also served the purpose to get used to the Sin´s presence, it had been years that felt ages since he had been so close to one, even Van back in the throne room felt something similar, granted he wasn´t as close but there were quitea few of the Sins gathered at the same time and not in an amiable disposition. At least Rhoxane didn´t particularly target him at the moment and even more so she seemed mesmerized by the Phoenix blood taste currently lingering in her mouth, much more of a reason to not view him as a possible source of nourishment
He dried his hands before turning back towards Red now afixed around Zara´s neck and above her shoulders like a fur accessory. He took kindly that Yuvi was apparently more fond of him as Red stated, however it was as much as possible that it was her personal take on the matter ina delusion of everyone is friends now, as much as it could be truth since she knew him the best amongst everyone here, Light of course chose the later and felt flattered to a degree. As Red was perched in the coordinates of the Sin he would change his way of speech yet again as his second nature came by default in a formal-neutral tone. Greeting her with a polite bow, keeping is back straight as he inclined is axis 25-30 degrees forward, bringing his right hand forward against his waistwhile flexing his elbow, and likewise is left hand to his back before standing straight up
"The corn husks are a necessary evil if you wish to taste them as intended, you could in theory substitute them with parchment paper, but the taste and its scent will be different, and you wouldn´t eat it either so what´s the point if the ingredient is readily available"
He gave Red a smile to reassure it was meant as straight as it was said and there were no subtle jabs or condescending meaning behind his words, he just wanted to explain the need to not stray too much from the recipe
"In theory, its always easier to maintain another shape if it resembles your main, say adopting a fox or a human visage, a kitsune if you want would be easier regardless of amount of energy, whichever you choose to use, since its closer to your nature, deviating from it alters variables and makes it harder to hold it together, and the outcomes will vary, like the tamales with corn husks versus parchment paper, since the mass of the tamal is made by corn, it works better with it than it does with the other material, and if you wish to change it, something closer like a banana tree leaf would be a better substitute than the parchment yet again, since its fibers and plant nature are akin of that of the corn husk, even if the scent and taste may subtly vary. You may sustain the same shape for longer with the help of other supplements like drives, gadgets or accesories that help you alter that nature of yours, much like reseasoning or adding addtional or extra ingredients to the mass to compensate the lack of the original ones, that is why I choose to use gadgets and drive forms whenever I shapeshift into thigns that stray away from familiar things, and even if I am more accustomed to it by now, it still less of a hassle to use those aids in the process so I can focus on other more important aspects. If you´d like I could get you some of those next time I happen to visit here"

Zara petted the fox fondly, nuzzling her cheek into Red's fur. "You did a great job," she praised her. "A gift, for you." Zara held out what looked like a small bead, a pearl of condensed energy from Gluttony herself. She'd created this while drawing from the humans indulging in the hookah bar's she'd constructed on Earth. The essence of indulgence, sweeter than sugar, richer than chocolate, a treat made just for Red. It would not only fill her belly, but her spiritual energy as well. Whatever magic Red possessed would be overflowing with power, if she chose to eat her gift. While scratching Red behind the ears, Zara gave Yuvi a little wave.

"Hmmmm, your apology seems sufficient. Gluttony is at peace with you," she told him. "I will take very good care of Red," she reassured him, giving her a good pet. "Are you interested in phoenix blood? I can give it to you without the hassle of transforming," she giggled. "I am also a phoenix. And Djinn. I would let you or Rhoxy have a bite," she laughed. "But I warn you: If you think you are not satisfied now, you will be left desperate for more."

On a lighter note, Zara drifted closer to Light and his tamales. "Kind of how you'll feel after eating one of these made the right way." With a pleasant smile, Zara waved to Rhoxy. "How did you like the tea? I hear my brother is quite tasty."

*when red sees Zara enter the kitchen from seemingly thin air,her eyes light up as she scampers on all fours shifting to feral fox form running passed her knew friends Light and Rhoxane to jump on Zaras shoulder curling her fluffy self around her neck as if a scarf and nuzzling her cheek*

I've been doing my best to be good! ive made friends with mr. light and im getting better accainted to Rhoxane here

*red sways her tail to and fro along Zaras neck if she were super ticklish it might give her the giggles otherwise it was just a nice brush of her soft fur against her neck*

mr light is showing me how to make tamales with bleh......corn husks he assures me though one does not need to eat the corn husk its more for......what he call it......steaming!

yuvi is here for food and i think he likes light in his own way kikiki

whatcha give to Rhoxan? phoenix blood? thats a rare thing indeed i've shifted into those birds but they are tricky to maintain there body. i had to reach a high mastery level of concentration, for more mythical magical beasts like that to even attempt to shift to one has to have a lot of .......um....chi,spirit, technique points what ever you want t call it.

Rhoxane

Off to the side Rhox could note the clear attempt on Light’s part to get the other two to maintain some polite boundaries with her. Perhaps in his eyes they were pushing a little too far in how they should react to a fellow within the castle, it was whatever to Rhox. The loudest prey was often what drew predators, those with exaggerated yelps of distrust and fear would be the ones she teased most often. As for Red… well! Red was Red, and Red was in Gluttony, and there… didn’t seem to be much else to Gluttony, so Rhoxane was fine with a friendly connection to the kitsune.

Granted, when Rhoxane thought of herself she understood why she’d been dropped into a castle devoted to the sins. When she thought of Red… well, she didn’t quite get it! Red just seemed so harmless. Maybe one day she would ask- but not right now.

At this point she was done eyeballing Yuvi, the rat was speaking with Gluttony now and Rhoxane simply decided to let the two converse.

As for her tea… Looking down at it, it was already almost gone. Her claws tap-tapped against the glass of the cup, red eyes staring down at the liquid that was left. At Zara’s mention of letting her have a bite she glanced up, her smirk returning, “I normally am not done with just a bite already- I think this phoenix blood will just torture me even if I drink more.” She could always eat more, honestly this would be a moment where it could be to her detriment. When asked, she would take one more sip of the tea before speaking, “It makes me feel good.” Taste mattered little to her if it eased her general, constant starved suffering. “I do promise not to go try biting your brother, of course. Does.. he know he’s been made into tea?” The vampyre asked, raising a brow with a grin, “That’s being served in the castle?”

*red turned to Rhoxane drinking the gift of tea zara gave her she didnt know much about rhox either but she was curious about her new den mate as well was she really a vampire? what kind of creature was she? she seemed hungry in a different way then red was not in the sense that she just drank blood but more that she didn't seem like she ate out of enjoyment or discovery it was like torment for her? but the tea seemed to at least calm her hunger. was it wrong to get enjoyment out of eating red thought for a sec if it meant ending other life? but only for a moment she thought of this and dismissed it. circle of life seemed natural this is just how things were why bother overly worrying about things.*

*one of the reasons red didn't want to just scarf down the precious gift Zara gave was because she wanted to have room for the tamales light was working on making they were starting to smell so good how could something she never had before smell like home? it was such a comforting smell maybe it wasnt just from the food she senced home but in the company she kept or maybe she was sencing how the smell made light feel? she wasnt sure but she couldnt wait to share a meal with all her friends even if rhoxane couldnt enjoy it physically maybe she could enjoy the company and the feeling of the feast*

Jovani was suddenly impaled by this unholy weapon and pinned against Lust's throne as blood oozed onto the blue throne as Jovani was completely unconscious. He had labored breath with blood leaving his lips dripping out. His bracelet glowed brightly to contact Lust for help as he was in no condition to even be awake.

From the point where the blade was rooted in the ground, a dark pool began to form, reeking of what most in the realm could instantly discern to be Ix's ichor. Something dark was now brewing.

*yuvi wasnt a very particularly threatening demon but if the ones he gave his loyalty to or care to came to harm he'ld be sure to be as annoying to anyone who caused them harm as possible*

Light made another Dopple pop up, one which would be i charge of mixing the batter of the tamale´s mass, focusing solely on sheer arm power, not stopping for a moment. He also made sure to make a barrier of sorts around the container, not so much as to actually protect it from anyone, much more of a warning not for people to approach, like drawing a line, just more palpable, otherwise if someone were to tamper with it for whatever reasons the batter would spoil and make tamales stale, chunky and rubbery in texture, which would not only affect texture but taste, it is a science and magic of old standing in the culinary arts not to let anyone else touch someone´s batter in the process until it is being split, Light didn´t know the actual reasons behind it but he would be a fool to question ancient knowledge, still it poised a a question that he would very likely try to figure through actual research in a short-to-mid therm.
Light on the other hand got himself busy preparing the fillings while chanting a spell so things ingredients and utensils would levitate his way for him to grab and handle the different dishes in various pans over the stove, making sure to get his hand on everything and not letting the magic do his work, just help him to keep everything ready and optimize the time and process, the simple spell would be a reprise from the previous one, customized for cooking purposes, both iterations of himself were chanting it cheerily tho on different notes, his being lower pitched and the dopple´s being on a higher pitch, the difference between his voices were subtle but did harmonize well, he made sure to keep an eye on Yuvi through it, to whisk him away if necessary.
"Higitus Figitus Zumbabazing, I want the attention of spices and cookingware, we´re on schedule for a full display course, Higitus Figitus Migitus Mum Prestidigitorium, Alakafez, Balakazez, Malakamez Meripides, Hockety Pockety Wockety, Skippity Cookity Dummity Dun"
The chanting much like last time followed the same funny musical notes from before.

Zara petted the fox fondly, nuzzling her cheek into Red's fur. "You did a great job," she praised her. "A gift, for you." Zara held out what looked like a small bead, a pearl of condensed energy from Gluttony herself. She'd created this while drawing from the humans indulging in the hookah bar's she'd constructed on Earth. The essence of indulgence, sweeter than sugar, richer than chocolate, a treat made just for Red. It would not only fill her belly, but her spiritual energy as well.

On a lighter note, Zara drifted closer to Light and his tamales. "Kind of how you'll feel after eating one of these made the right way." With a pleasant smile, Zara waved to Rhoxy. "How did you like the tea? I hear my brother is quite tasty."

Light then experienced a moment of piece knowing there would be no issues regarding Yuvi´s fate in a retaliatory situation from the Sin of Gluttony, she seemed a lot more ameniable and to a degree kind than the other Sins he had met, at least most if he recalled properly, other than that, he was sure she wasn´t the Gluttony he had met, or at least he felt confident with that thought. It was nice that he wasn´t persecuted in her domain, considering he was making use of the kitchen.
When the Sin moved closer a chill ran through his spine as his hairs begun to rustle on end but this time he managed to shudder off the feeling, not to be rude he tilted his face towards her with a toothy smile.
"Oh, I´ll take that as a complimenting challenge if I may"
He said without stopping his hands from moving around while his dopple kept the chant going and the wrestling of the mass for the tamales. His choice of flavors were meat, pineapple, corn (cornception), rajas with cheese (made with peppers, cream and cheese), pork and he cheese (solely), adding a spicy version for the meat and the pork one.

Does.. he know he’s been made into tea?” The vampyre asked, raising a brow with a grin, “That’s being served in the castle?”

It was pleasant to know there was one less ravenous hunger to deal with, it was better knowing from what he could gather from others and Rhoxane herself that she felt good about it, he knew what it was to be hungry, but also to be full and unsatisfied or eating out of need and not out of pleasantries or desires, those times were not only un-fun, they were also depressing and tiring, it was good news all in all, really.

"Am about done with the preparations, but here comes the fun part red, when we stuff the ingredients into the mass, would you like to help with that? Or rather can you? I don´t want to interrupt anything important but I figured you wanted to have a hand at it.
He said as the Dopple finally got a breather and got the corn husks, now wet and flexible, ready to be used to envelop the tamales once they were stuffed with fillings
"The procedure is simple, just do it like this"
Light placed the husk on top of a surface and only folded the a bit of the sides in a paralel direction of the fiber lines, then he proceeded to take some of the mass and spread it evenly on the middle of the corn husk and added a spoonful of thick fillings and then approximated both folded ends togther for it to get sealead, then folded the excess bit to the side and then twisted the upper end before tying it with a strap of corn husk that the Dopple was tearing from other husks to use it like a string and finally twisted the other end to tie it as well.
"At least this is the better way to get an even sized Tamal, buuuuuuut, if its too much of a hazzle you can do it on simpler ways, additionally you can add more of your fillings but you risk it pouring out from the mass, so I´d suggest thicker fillings having one spoonful and thinner ones two"
He spreaded the mass again this time all the way from the mid to one end and to both sides, added this time 2 spoonfuls, folded one side in, then wrapped the other side around it and then flipped the massless end towards the mass portion, leaving the top part uncovered tying it by midsection
"This version is faster, easier and only requieres one tie so it doesn´t fall appart, you´ll have to scrap some of the mass off from the folded husk or waste it tho, alrenatively, since we don´t lack resources here"
He said while prepping up a third option by repeating thie same process, but instead of tying it in the end, he placed the wrapped tamal into another husk and wrapped it much in the same mmaner but this time covering the exposed part with the base as he folds it up, tying the excess on top
"This way its still even, and much more presentable, after we do that we just put them on that huge steaming container over there"
He said pointing towards the Dopple already placing some of the tamales into a pot, brilliantly named Olla Tamalera which translates to, Tamale Pot.
"And then we wait"

Alice Everheart

Azzybelle

Jovani Joestar

Still snuggled into Alice, Lani glanced around the throne room, following her Mistress' gaze from face to face. Inquisitive blue eyes took in the slight changes in her friend: small differences to her physical appearance, an aura that radiated Wrath, and.. where were Zantsu and Shiba? The warrior was never without her swords!

"Wrath's mate and lesser," she repeated after Alice, and her head throbbed. Anise and Wrath? Absurd... wait.. no? Images of a blushing, determined Anise flashed in sequence through Lani's mind. A challenge.. and their bond. Now she remembered.

"Yeah, that's right," she laughed, but it sounded more nervous than anything else. "I.. I knew that." She hadn't known that. Not until she'd been reminded. Nervous energy welled up within Lani, its physical manifestation coming out in the dilating of her pupils, the digging of her nails into her palm.

Alice's reassurance that Lani had been asleep for a long time was a welcome sense of relief. An answer. An excuse. The throbbing in her mind eased up. "Asleep? Oh.. That explains why Cain looks like cotton candy," she sighed, feeling a little less crazy.

"Then, who is the hottie pinned to your throne? Wait, how long was I asleep, Mistress? What.. what did I miss? Can we eat that guy?" Lani squinted, taking a better look at Jovani, watching sloth bless him. Oh, Cotton Candy Cain had dibbs, she thought, disappointed. Upon further inspection, he seemed to belong to Lust. "Oh, he's yours. I won't eat him, promise." Lani stretched her body, draping herself across Alice like a lounging cat, expecting praise for her good behavior.

"Does he always do that, or does he need help? Seems a bit dramatic," Lani pouted, solely because he was taking some of Alice's attention away from her. She inspected her poorly manicured nails... nails that had spent weeks clawing out in pain. She clicked her tongue, disappointed by her current appearance.

[Pride the Ever-Living]

Pride the Ever-Living

This one did indeed belong to sloth, the slow wit was enough to tip him off to that, but her aura reeked of sleep in a more mild form. She had to have come from the sky-azure tower, he knew the feel of that place all too well since the previous holder of the throne loved to spread its reach deep into the castle during one or more of his waking moments. The eternal dreamer that he was, blasted sleeping titan of a man. Still this was no time for such things to cross his mind, nor remember former holders of a throne.

When she asked if he was ok that was a bit of a jolt. Normally those of this fold did not care one iota for the sake of others as long as it did not come between them and their restful natures. "I am just fine, kind of you to ask dear dreaming soul. I assume you are looking for your mistress? If so she is within the castle proper, just through the door way behind me, and two hallways to the left. Take the elevator to the 699th floor and go up one flight of stairs then you will see her no doubt." He was kind enough as always to give directions in fair detail to the sin of Sloth to one of their followers that was not their lesser. Granted he did not think for a moment that she would be able to remember any of those for more than a few moments, so he did what he always did to those of this fold. Not that she would really notice that he had done anything unless she had been watching his shadow closely. It's left arm reached out and it lightly poked her own shadow in the dead center of its chest, a small flicker of a purple light, to give her a bit of a wakeful energy and strength enough to move for a good 24 hours or so. As the old saying went, no rest for the wicked.

Now that he looked at her a bit better he shook his head. "Just pondering a thought to my self is all. A hunt of sorts if you will, for a target most deserving. Even your mistress, should she take the time to put the fragments together, would agree." After all the soul he was now after, the author of that cursed spell book whom had caused a great deal of harm currently to Lani, and even more so to Envy if he put two and two together, it would spill over into a terror within the realm, and that was not something the prime sin could allow to happen unless it was held in a relative check. "Though if you want you can always help me, instead of making a problem for your mistress?" Came the question and offer of sorts. Rare was it for the prime sin to go to the light blue fold.

Edha

Well, that was good. That he was fine- Edha had admittedly wondered what in the world would she even be capable of doing to amend the woes of a Sin if he had confided at all- for surely their own worries were quite burdensome. And Edha.. couldn’t do much about anything like that! She opened her mouth as he’d spoken of her mistress, though the slothling’s slow nature to speak meant before she could go, in any form, ‘not particularly at this moment’ he had already given her the directions she would need to find Sloth… The directions alone left her a bit dizzy! She blinked, scratching her chin, “Aaah, thank you…” No need to tell him she hadn’t needed those directions right now, maybe she should just go to Sloth after all…??

It wouldn’t be but a moment later that, but she would feel a bit more.. Awake, than normal as she listened on to him specify what he was out and about for currently. A hunt… something her mistress would agree with… Oh-- she could assist him? Her head canted to the side, it seemed like a wise thing to do, if she could ease the burdens of Sloth even a little bit. Edha did not have much faith in herself. Before coming to Valaura she had spent a long.. Long.. long.. Long.. long.. Long.. long time in a place cold and dark and quiet and isolated and while she was innately aware of her magic- it was not something she had expanded upon after coming here. Instead, her time had been spent largely hiding in her room, dreaming, whisking herself away to scenes and stories in the comforting manner she had grown used to when isolated- it just.. Seemed easier, that way.

So. She did not quite understand what her strengths would do for Pride. But it seemed fair to try- after all, her freedom and comfort here was something she knew she should not take for granted. So! Edha nodded- with the newfound bit of energy she had been given, she perhaps seemed quite enthusiastic for one of Sloth’s fold. “I will help you.”

He heard her response and smile a coy smile. There was no way in any of the realms, now, that Sloth could possibly be cross with him. She had after all just agreed to help him. "Wonderful! Well we shall not waste any more time. Come with me, we have some things to seek out, and so little to in which to do it." He held out his left hand to her, palm up as if offering her to actually take it. Already the magic he was calling to steal the two of them away to another location was starting to come in small bits around the two of them. The adventure and hunt were now underway.

Already the magic he was calling to steal the two of them away to another location was starting to come in small bits around the two of them. The adventure and hunt were now underway.

The want to be helpful to Sloth currently outweighed her desire to crawl into a hole and hide, though still Edha’s mind was somewhat lagging over the fact she was going to be quite busy assisting Pride for a little while. Boy… her bed sure did sound cozy right now. Her hand was careful, gentle as she took the hand offered by Pride, looking off and around herself as their scenery began to change. Even moreso since earlier, Edha looked awake. There were certainly questions bubbling up now. She wondered if she was foolish, agreeing to help without asking for the specifics as to what Pride would want her to do.

Well, what if she disappointed him? And… disappointed Sloth, in turn! Oh, dear..

“What are we going to look for?” She asked now, peering up towards the Prime Sin to whom she was going to be following for a bit. “You had mentioned a target.. Are we going to kill them, Lord Pride?” The word ‘kill’ felt alien on her tongue but she was aware… enough to wonder if a fight was going to ensue once they caught this person. Was she going to watch Pride explode someone?? The spacey member of the cyan fold was half in her mind envisioning the scenarios in which Pride was about to pummel somebody.

Jovani Joestar

Jovani's body slowly drips into the puddle of ichor and begins to slowly fade from the realm with the weapon leaving with him. He knows not where he is heading but it won't be good...

As the ichor swelled and enveloped Jovani, it would raise from the ground like a plant, forming a sturdy base before swirling into a cocoon like bud shape, sealed tightly and anchored near Lust's throne. The very moment that the ichor took it's grasp of Jovani, any enchantments cast upon him would be erased instantly, as easily as glass shattering. It would be at this point that Jovani would be placed into a state of cosmic uncertainty, both alive and dead, existing yet not existing; none would be able to interfere now.

Elsewhere within the deepest reaches of Jovani's mind. . . . . .

Darkness. When Jovani would open his eyes finally he would be greeted with endless suffocating darkness; the air heavy and not a sound to be heard. As far as Jovani could tell, he was awake in the actual sense and it would be indistinguishable compared to being in the waking world. A voice would query suddenly, loudly and without any regard for Jovani's disorientation.

((All other plots for the next 12 hours are paused and on hold for the Halloween Event! The Switched View is now in full effect with this post. The sins have all switch with no real reason as to why or how it has happened. The lesser sins are all confused but know that something is not right, only the normal underlings can tell the difference. Who will solve the mystery first?!))

It was that time yet again, in the mortal realm it was known as Halloween or to the few caster of magic who remain All Hallows Eve, among other names, and this year as every other was no different. The veil between the mortal realm and others was at its thinnest. Beings that were not normally able to cross over without some form of help, were now able to just walk right through in areas were holes had popped up. Magics that normally could not be cast correctly had a higher chance of working now even for those without any actual skill. All manner of fun and chaos was possible for the next 12 hours or so.

The prime sin knowing this, was set about his normal work early in the wee hours of the day recasting the protections over the castle as a whole and the rest of his own realm. As always preserving the balance to keep out all things that bothered him on some level, while allowing in new things that any would find interesting or fun, aside from normal humans on this day above all others. No one wanted a repeat of 876 years ago, when that small Russian army from Earth showed up trying to take over the castle in its supposed rise to power. While it had been some years if one looked closer at the swamps they could still make out one of the last tanks that had fallen, the shells fired at the castle still left small pock marks on the Damned Art, an eye sore to its crafter to this day. He would never allow that to happen again, so there he was reworking the wards, grand magics flowing below the tips of his fingers as he moved things here and there in the composition of everything. Later on that day the Halloween Ball was to start as it did every year, and he could not have anything out of place for it.

As spoke carefully incantation after incantation, laying the magics one after the other, the prime sin did not take any notice off, the amulet of change that had been left out from his last study of the whole mimic issue, laying closely to the edge of a shelf were one of the imps had placed it incorrectly. With a twist of his right wrist, and an oddity of motion as he layered yet another protective charm in place that just did not want to mend as it was supposed to, the wind movement was just enough to knock the item off of the shelf, allowing it to hit the stone floors and roll closer to him. After a moment of placing the ward firmly in place he could take a small break of his own before starting the next large spell work of his own. Such was the case that he did not see the amulet in question until his left foot bumped it, and he looked down, just in time to see the object start activating, within the confines of the warding circle around his self in order to stop any magical backlash. Unable to cast anything protective on his self, or do anything else he had only a moment to speak with the sin link to other six sins as if to warn them of something going on. All he was able to say though was a rushed message. ~EVERYONE INCOMING MAGIC! PROTECT YO-~ Before he was cut off from the magical change that overtook his form, the last sin to get his message via the link was Lust, which caused something odd to happen to the prime sin. There was no way any of them could possibly protect their self from the incoming magic as it sped down the sin link to all of them. A dull grey light seemed to wash over the castle as a whole as the magic took him into its forced embrace, all other sins effected as well.

A terrible and forced change, and what was even worse was the fact that none of the seven would be any the wiser that a change had happened to them all, it would be as if they had always been the sin that they were now changed too. Though what that was, would be a guess for anyone. The lesser sins in power even would have the memories altered to a minor degree. Only those not in power would remain not effected by the change much, but their words would hold no weight in changing the views of anyone else. This was going to be an odd Ball indeed. As the change completely took over the prime sin he fainted and hit the ground with a very hard thud.


Only seven minutes later the lady sin picked her delicate self up from the floor, coming to with an air of confusion about her. Perfectly manicured black nails, slipped through the dark hair of her head as she moved her bangs out of the way. Looking about she could not remember why it was she was in one of the many magical chambers of the prime sin, though knowing where she was, meant that she was looking for Pride for some reason. After a moment and looking down at her rather lovely gown, her memory came back to her. "Darkness! Where did Pride go?! I have to speak with them about the Ball! Where is that mage when I need them?!" She cursed to her self as she righted her self slender and form hugging deep blue gown with lovely accents spilling out behind her in a very fitting, alluring, and overly provocative fashion. She turned about looking all over the room, noticing a dull amulet at her feet. She bent down and picked up the listless thing, before slipping into her own ample cleavage which she had to rework back into her bodice before turning to leave the room in search for Pride, wherever the sin could be.
