Farrah knew he was going to be in so much trouble. But what was a little bit more?
"Wait," Farrah called as he dashed to keep up, "Let me get something to help you walk."
Quickly he crouched and started scribbling in the dirt. With a "Lurra ibiltari" there was a rumble and a stout looking man of earth appeared. Following the spells orders, the gnome trod over to stand in front of Elijah, arms out-stretched.
"The gnome will give you a piggy-back ride and will respond to your directions," Farrah explained, "Don't worry he'll hold onto you safely."
Speaking of safety, he probably should summon some kind of bodyguard. Well the easy summon for the earth around here was tapped, tapped! Water, where to get water. Farrah dived into one of the garden beds, gambling that there was a tap hidden in there. There was, so turning it on slightly and scribbling in the puddle it formed he summoned a water bodyguard. With an "Ura babesle" the water started to fill the outline of a humanoid figure, though it lacked any defined legs.
Farrah turned off the tap and returned to the group.

You must agree, my plan is sheer elegance in its simplicity! My TumblrFarrah looked really sheepish, "Ah that would have been me. Farralai Ta'roven. I got what happened after I called my phone if you want it."

You must agree, my plan is sheer elegance in its simplicity! My TumblrColico stopped short of entering the building as he heard the sound of sirens. Now that the police were here, going after Beatrix would probably have to wait.
No sense hunting down a demon that didn't pose a threat to him...yet.
He jogged over to the police, wondering if he would need to give a statement or be free to go.
Elijah turned round worriedly when he heard the police cars coming, and decided that he should make for the building as quickly as possible. He didn't want to speak to the police, not like this. His nudity, his poor state of health, the fact that someone looking exactly like him had participated in the attack... it wouldn't look good for him. He walked towards the building as fast as he could (not very fast), ducking behind a bush so that the police wouldn't see him.
Roy approached the group, nodding to himself. He hadn't felt compelled to enter the fight, particularly since his ward had not been among the combatants. Now, however, a person matching his description had turned up. As he got closer, he seriously considered turning the guy into something a little more manageable. Like a ferret or something else small and easier to protect, but no, even if he wanted to, it wasn't an option. Thrice said and done. It was a pain in the ass, but then again, so was gravity some times.
On another note of annoyance, the ward seemed busy with the human authorities. Mortals and their authorities. He sighed, and stopped up a good few paces from the group, hands in his pockets. He could wait. If there was one advantage he had over mortals, it was that he had oodles of time.
Liveblog | DeadblogFarrah explained everything to the cops, with Jamie adding a thing or two here and there. After taking a look at Farrah's video, they were willing to take everything at face value. The man with the daggers and the wizard were loaded into an ambulance, the man with the pistol was loaded into a body bag, and the woman with the sword was fished out of the pool of jello and loaded into a police car.
As the police were leaving, Jamie tracked down Ion and Ish. He turned to Ion. "Thanks for protecting my friend. I owe you one. And I'm not just saying that. If there's ever anything you need me to do, just ask."
Bigotry will NEVER be welcome on TV Tropes.Ish looks around for Jamie's silhouette so he can give him a stern look. When at last he finds it, he takes off his glasses and looks him presumably in the face with the meanest scowl he could possibly try to imagine.
"What the hell, man. You kicked the damn jar straight into my pelvis. Did it not occur to you to at least try make it roll dammit!?"
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's meanThe faun seems to be getting irritated as the two humans went on with their annoying ways.
"Look, Mister human, I'm not a post to lean on. Although I appreciate your thanks, I don't want my shoulder to smell of humans all day long. I still have work to do."
Ion yawns again, not only was the insomnia was getting to him, the firefight had really done a number on him. Not only that, but unknown to Ion, his toolbox was stolen during the panic. An odd kleptomaniac had gotten his hands on it while the faun escorted the blind man.
Deer"Oh. Sorry. I guess."
Ish detaches himself from Ion's shoulder and leans heavily on his walking stick, still in an awkward pose.
I'm riding this Groin Attack joke all the way through.
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's meanFarrah heard someone mention "Child" and since that other guy had transformed back into an adult (damnit he'd like to be able to pull that off), they were probably talking to him. Stupid retarded aging.
Farrah turned and said with every ounce of formality his mother would demand at a state function.
"Yes? I'm-" But before he could continue his customary explanation of his real age, he noticed that the speaker was a fae. So even if he looked eighty he probably would've been called child. Great. So he switched sentences, "- Farrah and who may you be?"

You must agree, my plan is sheer elegance in its simplicity! My TumblrElijah was glad that the police had gone, and hadn't wanted to know anything about the attacker. Peeking out from behind his bush, he noticed that a fae had arrived, and cursed his bad luck. Demons, police and fae. It just kept getting better. He'd had his problems with the fae before - he couldn't speak for all of them, but the few he'd met didn't approve of the pacts the Order made with demons, no matter how much he'd tried to explain that the demons they bound themselves with were benign. Best not to get involved with him - knowing the fae, he'd end up in some sort of pact before he could blink. He continued into the main building, calling out, "Beatrix? Beatrix? Are you there? I'm here to protect you..."
Roy bowed. "I am Roy of the Seelie Court, envoy of Lady Iadrivi" The inflection on final part of the name sounded odd, even as far as faerie names went, as if at least one syllable was missing. When he was on the clock, Roy preferred to use as much of his liege's True Name as he could get away with. He knew a few syllables more, out of how many, he knew not, but using more than that was risky on several levels. "She has sent me to grant a boon on thee."
Liveblog | Deadblog"Oh."
This could be problematic, Farrah's father had warned him about the fae. And the risks of dealing with them. He'd have to ask him about this Lady Iadrivi went (and if) he got home.
"What is this boon, and what was done to warrant it?"
Hopefully those were safe questions to ask.

"What leads you to believe I require your protection, mortal?" she said, with a hint of anger creeping up in her voice.

Need a tall, brawny fella to come by and inspect your pickle? Perhaps I may be this fella.Elijah bristled at that. "You otherworldly creatures - you always say mortal is if they were dirt on the bottom of your shoe. But aside from that, there is a very good reason you need protection. Sar'thariel is gone, but he will reform himself soon. And knowing Lucifer, the next time he tries to recapture you, it won't be a lone demon and his thugs - he learns from his failures. We need to get you out of here, and make sure Lucifer cannot track you down again."
