[It was the middle of the night, or middle of the morning, whichever you want to call it. For most here, the art of sleep may have been... sort of an odd ritual than normal, with the constant reoccurring dreams. Emizel had been good about it not bothering him that much for quite some time. Many demons had a habit for staying awake for days on end and then sleeping all that time off later. Which may have been part of the case here, only now, this time the dreams were really starting to get to him.]

[Getting to sleep wasn't the hard part, it was trying to stay there. Rolling to a different side, curling up, straightening out, lie on his back, neither of those things were making anything different. Still the same dream, still the same memory. Being abandoned was bad enough just the first time, of course he didn't want to be reminded of it another twenty times more.]

[The next time Emizel woke up he got so fed up that he chucked the pillow across the room, disrupting the Spirits. From there he sat up and brought his knees to his chest.]

... I'm not allowed to forget, am I? [Buries face.]

[... Alright alright. Maybe there was something that could distract him from this. A minute or so later he looked up to the nightstand and grabbed the device, and clicked it open. There had to be something else going on..]


((If I know whenever or not Emizel is freelancing hotels again, or if he's staying with the Tea Shop gang or Days Trio by now, this post may double as an action one too))

[Then act like it.]

No. [At least he's never set his Spirits on fire.] I think he just wants cake.

[Offscreen, Fang squeaks excitedly. Yes! That's exactly it! He wants cake, please! Below him, Melody yowls unhappily and swats at Fang. Shut uuuuup she's trying to sleeeeep]

[Not really, no.]

Yeah, I don't think so.

[He grabs Fang, hauling him out of Melody's reach and placing the bat on the floor next to him. He fishes a cookie out of his bag and places it in front of Fang, who squeaks happily and snaps it up. Cookies are like tiny cake! Yay! He squeaks his thanks and returns to munching on the cookie. Melody, meanwhile, has climbed into Wash's lap. She kneads his lap a few times, settles down, and rolls on her back. She doesn't want cookies; she wants belly rubs. Wash reaches down and obliges her.]

[This is much easier than managing Blue Team, actually.]
unrecovered: (Well...)

[It took fifteen seconds, everyone's happy, there is zero property damage, and nobody died. By Wash's standards, that's a huge success.]

That was nothing. And you can't tell me your Spirits are perfectly behaved all the time.

You have a bat and a Meow Wow. There's no way that's true.

Huh. You've come a long way from setting him on fire. [Slightly backhanded, true, but still a compliment of sorts.]

[personal profile] unrecovered 2013-05-01 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
And that was a compliment. [He's bad at those okay]

[personal profile] unrecovered 2013-05-01 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It was. [You are really, really bad at this, kid.]

[Well, evidently this is how you shut the kid up. Good to know.]

[And Wash of all people knows that one good thing does not erase all of the bad. He's got a good amount of experience with that.]
unrecovered: (Oh well damn)

[personal profile] unrecovered 2013-05-01 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
Forget sarcasm - you're just bad at listening.

[Oh, hello, status quo.]

Says the kid that didn't recognize a compliment.

Never heard of a once in a lifetime experience?

Possibly. Depends on how you act.
