// Buh...buh-but...Reaper wanted to show off his awesome and never before seen skills with dominoes... *pouts* //
Reaper glanced back to watch the two leave and nodded at them. Really...he wasn't much of a reader either. Still...that would be something to do. He paused a moment, blushed again, then shook his head and muttered something to himself. First the kid made him human enough to need actual food...now this woman...ergh.
He plopped back down onto the couch and sent one of his shadows back into the kitchen. Once he was comfortable again, the shadow returned with another thing of blood.
He paused a moment and stared at the shadow, then made it move onto the ceiling where he could see it. It then changed into various shapes, and he went about entertaining himself. No tv, or anything to play with...shadow puppet show was the only other thing he could think of doing...coloring maybe.

((Maybe Cat just didn't look hard enough. Actually, I'm thinking that she'll probably come back with a portable DVD player and a bunch of gory movies. ^_^))

// Yay! //
The shadow puppets worked for about ten minutes...then he lost complete interest in them. Strangely enough, it was almost too quiet now. He needed something to do.
Discarding the package on the ground, letting it fall through his shadow and into the garbage can, he hopped up and out of the couch. Since there was no one around, he reverted back into his boney Reaper form. After a moment, he decided to walk around for a bit in one of his newer forms. A few seconds later, his new Blood took over and engulfed his entire form. Leaving and inky black form under a tattered jet black cloak. A moment later, green jems began to grow through the cloak and potruded out of him like spikes. He began walking down the hall to explore a bit, stopping and glancing at a few things that caught his eye, then moved on. After a while, he became bored with walking as well. Being a bit random may be more entertaining. With that, he fell into his shadow and reappeared in some random part of the complex.
A hallway. A very long hallway. Nothing but closed doors. Reaper stood there a moment and stared at each one with a slight frown. There were a few movies and cartoons that came to mind about something like this. Open a door and find it to be a doorway to a rather unpleasant world with a dinosaur or some horrible thing on the other side. After a small pause, he started for a few of them, letting his shadow beat him there and slide under the door. Nothing. Should be fine then. He opened a few, and found very little of interest. Pretty much just spare rooms and closets.
After a while, he got to thinking of things he'd rather be doing, and things he could be doing. The whole dominoes thing didn't sound so bad. When he was a kid, he used to make long trains all over the house and tables with his fa...well he used to mess around with them. He wouldn't mind even haveing a handfull of them to play with. Put them down the stairs or something and watch them-
At about that time, he opened a door and was burried from his knees in a pile of dominos that had suddenly flooded out of the small closet. He stood there, hand still on the doorknob, simply staring in at the huge pile in front of him. He blinked. Looked down at the pile around his legs. Then began chuckling to himself. "I'm not even going to ask." he mumbled to himself as he made his way out of them.
He bent down and picked two of them up. One he dropped on the ground. Then dropped the other on top of it. Satisfied that they weren't going to blow up or anything if he used them, he wrapped his shadow around the entire collection of them and made his way back down to the livingroom. He had nothing else to do...time to decorate the house.

After quite some time, the Sanctum had been practically over run with dominoes. They trailed throughout the halls, split off, curled, zigzagged, ran overtop of things, positioned to launch each other onto another line out of reach, simply a massive and carefully layed out array of things to happen once the first dominoe was tipped.
With most of the open rooms in the house invaded with the small toys, reaper was now in one of the upper rooms, trying to finish his creation. He only had another room to go, then he would run out of dominoes.

{Enter Dr. Strange from Gotham}
Unfortunately, before he could finish, the owner of the house appeared... right in the center of a spiral of dominoes. They instantly started going off in two different directions, and Strange blinked. "Um..."

A set of chain reactions then occured. Two lines soon turned into seven lines, then back into two, then three, then dominoes started flying up in the air, landing on lines sitting on tables and couches. After the entire floor was done, the line moved towards the stairs, where dominoes began flipping up them, knocking other ones over to cause them to flip. Once reaching the top, two more lines split off into opposite directions. Clattering could be heard for about a minute longer. Then there was a faint "No, no, no, no, NO." heard from somewhere in the house.
A second later the clattering stopped, but was soon followed by a rather angry "I only had FIFTEEN left."
A minute or two later, Reaper made his way down the stairs with a rather annoyed look on his face.

Strange was still standing in the center of the fallen spiral, looking rather taken aback. "... Dominoes?" he asked finally.

"Yeah." Reaper half spat, half growled. At least a half an hour of setting all of them up and he didn't even get to see any of it. "I found an entire freaking closet of them. I got bored, alright?" he said.
He paused and looked around at the mess of black all around the house. He muttered something to himself, then moved back to his couch. He brushed off the lines of dominoes littering that and plopped back down, still grumbling something.

Strange blinked again."Ah." A muttered word later, the house was once again completely clean. "No need to get upset." He glanced around, and then frowned. "Where is Black Cat? She didn't leave by herself, did she?"

"She left with the man she'd come here with a little while ago." Reaper replied, still a bit peeved. "He came back for her."

Strange seemed to relax a bit. "Oh," he replied somewhat absently, "Alright, then." Without another word, he walked into his study and shut the door.

Reaper held back a growl of frustration and contented himself with slamming a pillow over his face, then let out a muffled growl. He didn't have to put them all away...jeeze. Now what?
