They'd spent a lot of time sleeping recently. Phantez tried to give them some bass lessons too, but they just weren't up to it. Their hair was starting to grow out, and they were trying unsuccessfully to tie it back when their phone rang. They hesitantly picked it up, but relaxed a little when they saw the number, holding it to their ear. "Yeah? We're ready to do the thing?"

"Yeah, Madison has what we need at his apartment in case nipple-man decided to go through my stuff. He should know you're coming so just retrieve the stuff from him. He and Seculus can come along too if they want, not really a big deal as to how many people are here, might be better though."

"Better to have more or less? Because last time I did this we had too many people and it went bad."

2016-12-02 06:47:17

●

"More. In case we have to hold them down. Satan is going to be here but, they're more so going to show up at the last second just in case."

"Ick. Great. Okay, okay, I'm on my way." They sighed, hung up, and abandoned the hair tie on the bed they'd been sharing with Phantez to pull some pants on and head out the door. They stopped at the angel apartment, almost forgetting where it was -- they'd really been there so few times -- and picked up the guys and the supplies, both of them deciding to come before they made their way to the house. Seculus flicked Madison's hand when he reached habitually for his pocket and Ren knocked on the door.

Lance answered the door, only opening it a few inches. "Oh the three of you are here? We're ready, Zane's just luring Ivory into the basement."

2016-12-02 07:12:48

🌀

"'Luring'? What, is he offering an orgy?" Madison muttered. Ren pushed the door open further and moved inside. "Why the basement? So they can't make a run for the door?"

2016-12-02 07:20:16

●

"Pretty much, come on in." Lance opened the door all the way.

2016-12-02 07:21:26

🌀

"Maybe we should've waited until daytime..." "No. I'm not staying here any longer than I have to," they responded to Seculus, who sighed and followed the other two in.

2016-12-02 07:35:52

●

"Plus it could injure Ivory if he ran out into the sun." He shut the door behind him and locked it.

2016-12-02 07:42:30

🌀

"...would he really do that?" "Do you have any reason to believe he /wouldn't/? You can't seriously trust him." "Ugh. So everything's set up in the basement?" Now they were ignoring the two. They were being obnoxious in different ways and they didn't have the energy to put up with it.

2016-12-02 07:50:16

●

They could already hear Ivory. "FUCK YOU I HEAR REN IT'S NOT MY IMAGINATION LET ME GO!"

2016-12-02 07:51:44

🌀

They flinched and tried to ignore that too, staring at Lance. "....how long will it take to set up?"

2016-12-06 06:01:45

●

"Not long at all."

2016-12-06 06:02:53

🌀

"...that's good. And it /has/ to be down there?"

2016-12-06 06:09:06

●

"Rather it be somewhere where it'd be easy to block Ivory from leaving, but if you know of somewhere better I'm open to suggestions."

2016-12-06 06:09:48

🌀

"No, I just meant in the same room as them..." They sighed again and started shuffling towards the stairs, motioning vaguely for Madison to follow.

2016-12-06 06:10:44

●

"Well yes, but you have my word that they won't do anything to you."

As they moved downstairs, Ivory was pinned to the couch by Zane in a quite awkward position. "Oh hey guys!"

2016-12-06 06:14:24

🌀

"That's not the point." Zane smiled and waved, receiving only one in return from Seculus before he had to return his grip to its previous position.

2016-12-06 06:16:42

●

"Here, let me help. Madison, put the stuff in that bag in the bowl on the mantel." Lance moved over to Zane's side.

"Fuck you guys I'm not /that/ bad to the point you have to get rid of me." Ivory stated as face first in a pillow.

Once the mantel there was a copper bowl next to a purple, blue, red, and green candle that surrounded it. A pentacle was made in salt. to join the bowl and candles with the purple candle bigger than the others.

🌀

Ren covered their ears while Madison aggressively dumped the bag of out-of-place looking objects into the bowl, not even acknowledging her presence. Seculus kept glancing at her and away again, looking increasingly uncomfortable.

"Thanks," Zane grunted to Lance and loosened his hold slightly, moving out of the awkward position.

2016-12-06 06:25:33

●

Brightly colored flowers and glowing plants of different hues fell into the bowl, lighting up the room that was lit by a few candles. The smell of cinnamon lingered from a scented candle in the corner.

Ivory of course struggled. "Oh come on, really?"

Lance of course, was tired of this, and held her down by the wrist before moving her into a sitting postion. "You know the incantation Ren?"

2016-12-06 06:30:33

🌀

"I want to make sure first, it might be different the way you know."

2016-12-06 06:32:52

●

"I can't really repeat it right now, just light the plants with the purple candle, say the incantation, then blow the ashes in her face. If it's wrong, well we'll go from there."

"I'll give you a scooby snack if you let me go."

2016-12-06 06:35:56

🌀

"...the silver too?" They eyes the contents of the bowl dubiously while Madison flipped her off.
