Come Around Again
Feb. 3rd, 2011 11:54 amWell, I have to say, I wasn't expecting the rabbits to set me on fire. There goes another jacket- but the City gets points for originality.
Even I'm starting to get tired of this weather. It was nice seeing a real winter, for once, but now I'm reminded of why I was always so glad when they were over with.

This is a message out to the deities. Do any of you remember that deal I made a year and a half ago? Where I lost my powers for a month and you were supposed to give someone's life back?

[it's either hilarious or disconcerning, but he's using the same tone of voice you heard him use before on yourself, Gabriel. XD]

Date: 2011-02-03 08:19 pm (UTC)Apparently it's my thing. And Donatello could use some company now that Rudy took Alexander and moved.

Date: 2011-02-03 08:58 pm (UTC)I'm good. Not even hurt much.
[text]
Date: 2011-02-03 09:13 pm (UTC)That doesn't exactly inspire confidence, you know. Do you need help? Are you burned?
[text]
Date: 2011-02-03 09:17 pm (UTC)Just a little, nothing serious. If I needed help I'd see a doctor. I'm friends with one.
[text]
Date: 2011-02-03 09:33 pm (UTC)Okay, if you're sure. I'd come by and check on you, but I'm not very good at keeping these things calm. I suppose I startle a little too easily myself. Still, I hope they stick around after tonight. [he's going to find you another rabbit if they don't, Anthony. He's already decided.]

Date: 2011-02-04 05:11 pm (UTC)Well, good luck. [he could always end up with two?]
By the way, I'm talking to the deities today. I've put it off long enough. I'll let you know how it turns out, okay?

Date: 2011-02-04 05:19 pm (UTC)She's returned now, but she's dead. I want to see what it would take to arrange for her to get her life back, like she should have.
deity filter;
Date: 2011-02-04 05:21 pm (UTC)What would it take? You ask that as though you don't already know the price.

Date: 2011-02-04 05:30 pm (UTC)Okay.
...
Please don't trade your memories... I don't know what you want from them, but... Don't trade your memories, okay?
[you see the puppy eyes through the text, that's how strong they are]
deity filter;
Date: 2011-02-04 05:41 pm (UTC)Things change so often here that I wasn't sure if that had changed, too. But considering that I've already paid for this, it shouldn't be for as long this time.
deity filter;
Date: 2011-02-04 05:42 pm (UTC)But that deal... it was for that Elle Bishop. Do you think this one is the same?
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-04 05:48 pm (UTC)I don't expect they'll want my memories. But I wouldn't trade any of you for anything. I promise.
They'll want my abilities, though. They had fun taking them the last time.
deity filter;
Date: 2011-02-04 05:55 pm (UTC)The same deal as before, but for two weeks instead of a month. Is that acceptable?
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-04 05:58 pm (UTC)Giving away your abilities shouldn't be that hard. I mean, they are fun, but you don't really need them, do you?
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-04 06:04 pm (UTC)That's the thing. Last time, they left the side effect of one of my abilities that makes me crave more. It's difficult to ignore. So no, I don't need them. But it feels like I do.
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-04 06:11 pm (UTC)Well, I'll do my best to help you through it. I know some effective distracting techniques, after all.
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-04 06:19 pm (UTC)That's true. This time shouldn't be so difficult. Thanks, Anthony.

Date: 2011-02-04 06:43 pm (UTC)Don't mention it. I wouldn't let you deal with this alone. Especially if you feel it's going to hit you that bad.
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-04 10:44 pm (UTC)It was bad last time. But this will be entirely different, not being alone. And I need to do this. It doesn't come close to making up for all the things I've done, but it will at least set one thing right.

Date: 2011-02-05 08:16 am (UTC)Only two weeks? The desire for a discount is one thing, but such a steep reduction is out of the question.

Date: 2011-02-05 03:08 pm (UTC)All right. How about three weeks, then?

Date: 2011-02-05 03:36 pm (UTC)I'll see you after today's over, right? I want to hear how things go with the rabbit.
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-05 04:15 pm (UTC)I think he's going to be okay. I'm bribing him with Donatello's lettuce stash.

Date: 2011-02-06 03:40 am (UTC)Ah, I imagine that's calming him down considerably. Good idea. I was never very good with pets, I suppose.

Date: 2011-02-06 04:25 am (UTC)Thank you for being so accommodating. When exactly should Elle be getting her life back?
deity filter;
Date: 2011-02-06 04:34 am (UTC)I will file the paperwork. In three days' time.
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-06 12:58 pm (UTC)I can show you how to handle them. It's not so difficult.
[text, private]
Date: 2011-02-06 05:44 pm (UTC)I'd appreciate that. I guess my abilities don't extend to animals.
