Welcome to Gaia! ::

Azerim blinked, almost not realizing he was being spoken to. He looked out and spied an angel with blue wings and an eye patch. "Oh, I was looking at my owner over there." He pointed out towards Dark, still looking at Urcaquary's ring. "He just recieved a ring, just like you used to be! He's my little brother!" Azerim piped up cheerily. He coughed out a laugh though, realizing he hadn't properly introduced himself yet. Looking at the demon, he smiled and said "My name is Azerim! What's yours?"

It wasn't that Audric's mood had improved, it was that there were more people, and he didn't dare meander about looking depressed, it was unbecoming of the one who was supposed to guard the store. He peered at Azerim curiously. "You have a younger brother now?" His question was soon answered.

Azyre's ears flicked lightly at the chatter going on all at the same time, between angel and owner and oni and angel and oni and oni.
"Well Captain, it is safe to say I am indeed the owner of this little shop." The druid eyed her weapon fondly. She reminded him of the old world, and vaguely smelled of wood and wiskey. Ah, allure, thy name was woman.

"Adonis is..." He was interrupted by her continuing to speak and nodded, "But you see, he is exactly that. Adonis is a personification of your concience! I'm sorry, but there's no way to get rid of him." Azyre said, listening with amusement as Adonis himself jumped on Alex, in a tiff.

Actually, Azyre was lying. There was a way to be rid of both angels and demons, but he didn't care to mention it, as it would mean the death of another innocent soul, which he wouldn't allow. Adonis had chosen her, and with her he would stay.

Audric waved when pointed to. "I'm a demon, yep!" He turned to Adonis, still quite little but very feisty. "Mine? No. But mine doesn't care for me much. Gabriel's owner however has tried to kill him on numerous occations."

Azyre chuckled at the choice of clothing.
"Well, you do look rather dashing."
Already Azyre was calculating about Alexandria and little Adonis. Pirates huh? He'd imagine they'd require a lot to keep them occupied. It soon dawned on him with the opening of a swimming pool the next block over. He'd rent it out and wage a naval war!

Azyre whipped out a paper and a pencil and began to write a list out.

Alex looked to Azyre and looked disappointed. 'i thought my conscience would be more ya know.. fearsome and less. well " she sighed as the small ANgel was busy primping hismelf in Audric's little mirror. "Well less cute and cuddly?"

Adonis looked cute in his eye patch with his pirate hat. "ARGH!" he growled into the mirror "Avast ye land lubbers!"

Alex put her hand on her face and sighed. "SEE what I have to deal with? How can THAT be what's inside my head? I don't even say that kinda stuff!"


Adonis laughed and sat down on a small couch "I want one of these! PleasE?!" he grinned.

"Fine.. get whatever you want. I guess a happy conscience is a quiet one." she looked over to Azyre and then to the small creatures inhabiting the counter.

"Why do I have him?" she asked honestly.

Azyre smiled serenely. Alex seemed distraught now, but she would come to accept Adonis, and realize she needed him. He leaned back against the counter as she spoke, smiling at the tiny angel.
"Nobody's concious is fearsome, Alex. That's just not what they are." He said simply, "He's become the outer voice of the inner thoughts that you too often have ignored, when they could help you. You have him because his base spirit, his body if you will, discovered your concious and sought you out."

He smiled happily at Kamuzu's emergence, though Kori's obstinance was discouraging, despite all she had seen, she still refused to believe any of it. Kamuzu's ring had molded to fit onto his arm, he still had it, though Azyre doubted he'd part ways with his Halo. Each angel wore theirs a different way. Some had theirs hover over their heads, others still wore them as bracelets or jewlery.
"Kamu, you have your work cut out for you with this one." Azyre said sympathetically.

Audric peered at Azerim, beginning to laugh quietly as he took the smooth violet stone ring and hooked it to his suspenders, creating a nearly comical hoop skirt appearance. Audric for the life of him could not understand why Azerim never opted for normal clothes. Well, his bartender attire wasn't exactly normal, but Azerim didn't even wear pants, or a shirt, or shoes. He called down to the oni.
"Be careful you don't warp the ring! It is stone, you know!"
Audric shook his head at Azerim and wandered over to Adonis.
"I think you look rather dashing." He admitted with a smile, his tail flicking back and forth.

Melek who'd remained quiet and doing his own thing for the first little while was getting bored and needed something to do. Growling at nothing he walked across the table then back again, there were so many new Oni's and angels it was driving him alittle nuts.

Frowning he did the only thing he could think of practice his powers...yes he'd promised to behave, but that was before he got bored... Touching his small hand against the wood of the counter he waited, not long though after a few mintues green vines started to appear causeing cracks to form in the counter.

Melek just grinned at his handy working.

"Yup. Accepting him for who he is and listening to him is the best way to happy coexistance. Ignore him, and he'll never ever ever shut up." Azyre said with a laugh. Oni used force to get their way. If they wanted something and their owner didn't comply-- too bad. Angels preferred non violent but highly irritating tactics to be heard.

"When did you get him?" Alex asked, motioning to the blonde ice oni.

Azyre shook his head. "He isn't mine. I just let him hang about here and run the shop with me. He chose his owner, just as Adonis picked you, but it seems neither needs the other as much as they originally thought."
Azyre gently patted Tsurara's head as the boy grasped him in a quick hug. "Take care," He said to the boy, glancing at the clock as the lad ran out. "It's an hour until closing time." He said quietly.

Audric meeped at plastic sword point, holding up his blue hands.
"Don't keel me!" He squeaked. Reaching down to rifle his hands in his pockets, he realized he only had some lint, and by the look of the pirate, that wasn't going to be good enough. Smirking, Audric reached for his hip for an imaginary sheath, forming a small rapier out of ice in his hand. Pulling it out, Audric challened the young pirate.
"Haha! You had to try and rob a royal knight! En Garde, you fiend!"

((It just happened coincidentally. I had Azyre since I first joined in March '03, and when I first got Audric I named him by what I thought would be a fitting meaning for when he got older. It means 'old and wise rule.'
Dark named his Azerim, after a creature he'd had before in a different game, and then you showed up with Alex Drake, and named your angel Adonis. XD *shrugs* it's so hard to make sure you're writing out the right names.))

Adonis laughed at Audric. "En Guarde Demon scum!" he said in an awefully bad pirate voice. He lunged out at the demon pet only to fall on his face, tripping on his own lacey hems.

"OOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW" he whined loudly tears spilling out of his eyes. "ALLEXXXX" he sniffled wiping his tears on his sleeve.


"OH walk it off" she groaned "I'm talking here."

Adonis grew angry and stood up. "She's so mean!" he looked back to audric. "Is your master mean like this? I don't understand why she won't listen to me!" he was frustrated and sighed. "Let's get back to the battle at hand! If i win you'll tell me the secret of happy living with her!" he joked and started to sword fight with audric.

Suddenly he realized that Audric was playing with a sword of ice. He dropped his sword and wowed at it. "HEY.. it's ice! that's neat!"

Audric's sword didn't stop as it smacked him in the head. "OW!" he groaned rubbing his head...
