Savior orders two cups of Tea, leaning back in his seat
"Well, answer enough."
Sometimes it best to leave the lights OffShadow looks at his stained gloves, his eyes fogging up.
The Savior slides Shadow's steaming cup of tea towards him
"You are supposed to be some sort of God, wonder what could have shaken you this much.....?"

Sometimes it best to leave the lights Off@Psyco:See you later. I'll see if I can't bring in Loki tomorrow to meet Picky.
Thor flies out of the Arena.
Switching avatars.
Shadow stares at the tea, then looks up at the Savior.
"You don't even want to know..."
He then grabs the tea, and begins sipping it, still hot, and refusing to elaborate on the matter.
"I understand.....care to talk about anything else, like that girl in the bandages?"
The Savior sips his tea slowly to avoid any burns
Sometimes it best to leave the lights OffWillow arrives on the rooftop of a building near the cafe that Shadow and the Savior are in. She notices the two chatting through the cafe's window, but decides not to go join them.
Shadow, his hearing sensitive due to his agitated state, hearing Willow, jumps back away from his seat, tripping and falling backwards over a table.
He hisses a curse in a forgotten tongue, then goes to one of the windows, trying to locate the source of the noise.
The Savior stays in his seat, drinking his tea
"Have fun with that."
Sometimes it best to leave the lights OffWillow's still sitting on the rooftop, drinking some Sanguine and unaware that Shadow heard her arrival.

Shadow flits to the window, attempting to scope out the sound. He hesitates, then risks calling out.
"Who's there...?"
"Hey," Willow replies, having decided to risk facing Shadow's wrath.

WAR appears beneath the central tower
My game. I reckon it's gonna be a big oneShadow falls back again, startled, horrified, angered, and excited, all at once. Shadow finishes his tea, then flits out the door, bounding onto the rooftop near Willow, his eyes narrowed scornfully.
"They didn't deserve that...nobody does..."
"They did, and you know it, Shadow," Willow replies. "Especially after what they did to Masc. Though if it's all the same to you, I let them live. Mainly because I decided to give Claus, the one who apparently cared for that girl, one chance to redeem himself. Lucas, I spared, because Claus wanted to see if he could be redeemed as well, though I'm doubtful it'll work."

Shadow laughed harshly.
"You know something? I shouted that you were becoming like them, and behind your back, Lucas GRINNED. He knew I was catching on. We all have our dark sides. Heck, I'm 99% dark side. NOBODY deserves being mutilated. 'Tis paying evil unto evil."

WAR knocks one of the tower's supports loose causing it to fall towards Willow and Shadow.

My game. I reckon it's gonna be a big oneREALLY?!? Doesn't some map-altering attack like that have to get cleared first?!?
No... the idea is that when the battle ends everything returns to normal.
My game. I reckon it's gonna be a big oneWillow, not in the mood for a big fight right now, offhandedly uses her telekinesis to catch the tower and hurl it aside, annoyed by the unprovoked attack.
"Well, bad people deserve to have bad things happen to them. Plain and simple," she says to Shadow. "They mutilated poor Masc, so I simply returned the favor. They're lucky I didn't reduce them to mindless vegetables. Besides, I'm sure Masc will thank me for standing up to his tormentors for him."

WAR, sensing to no inherent strife to exploit... vanishes
I'll come back later.

My game. I reckon it's gonna be a big oneShadow's eyes surge with a vacant white light, and his voice becomes one devoid of softness, sounding like some abyssal fiend.
"Really, then? Would he rejoice in the fact that you tore the Twins' eyes from their sockets, and reduced Lucas to a squirming wreck? Would he enjoy the sight of all that fetid blood spilled upon the reddened ground? Would he trust you knowing that the phantasmal presence of the one you know as Tenebris wormed its way into your brain and puppetted you, playing out your worst emotions as you tore those children limb from limb? Because, if he were like me, and I DO have a lot in common with him, I'd be horrified! You know when I told you my mind records events? This is going to play out in my mind whenever I sleep for ETERNITY!"

"You know what those wretched twins did to him, Shadow. So yes, I do think he'd enjoy watching me tear his bullies apart," Willow replies. "And like I said, I let both of them go with their lives intact despite my greater judgement telling me to do otherwise, not to mention that I stopped torturing Claus after he proved that he truly cared about that girl, so you don't need to get so upset with me."

"REALLY? You TRULY believe that? Or are you just betraying your own feelings, your innate humanity, what makes you a force for GOOD? Because you certainly seemed to blossom in fighting prowess when that foul thing got inside your deluded SKULL!"
Shadow's eyes blaze with the power of spotlights, and he marks his final word with a stomp of his boot, cracking the roof under him.
I also kinda have to go. Tomorrow, I might bring in Picky, depending on if I have enough inspiration to write for him. I'll put his avatar on right now in case I forget. See you later.
