ITT: We're in Hell

So? What's in a name? I knew a guy called Jesus, damn near the sickest motherfucker I'd ever seen.

Seriously, parents shouldn't name their kids Jesus, they tend to get bullied like crazy.

I know a Jesus. Kids pronounced his name like that even though it was supposed to be pronounced "hay-soos". He never seemed to mind too much.

I also knew a Dorcas, reasonably intelligent man in spite of his name.

HOT ENOUGH FOR YA?

Quite, yes.

...have any of you guys ever felt like you've fallen victim to Buu Syndrome down here? It's the strangest thing...

Hopefully a subversion is waiting for us at the end.

Yes. Pain, love it.

Not pain, just something that actually looks like it should be reigning over the nine halls with an iron fist, not a guy in red pajamas with a twirl-capable mustache and goatee.

Well, I'd suggest we go deeper, but I don't know how long I could stay with you guys. There's still something keeping me from going too far down.

But, if you wanted to go on ahead, I might be able to catch up later.

Hmmm... How about we carve out a path of blood and fear, hacking and looting our way through the lands, creating a wide swathe of destruction that a blind man could follow?

I figured that's where we already were. -smirks- Well, Hell has already gone to Hell. If there hasn't been anyone to run this place for a while, it shouldn't hurt to pander around for a bit...

YOU ARE GOING TO WORK OFF YOUR SINS BY ATONING! FOR YOUR FIRST TASK, YOU SHALL... CLEAN UP THE JUST BUGS ME PAGES! BWAHAHAHAHA! -gives everyone a mop and bucket-

-a strange instinct taking over, creates to holes in the bucket and removes the strands from the mop. Then wears bucket as helm and wields mop as quarterstaff.-

Chabal? You in the running for ruling the Inferno too?

Ruling? Nah, just causing chaos, mayhem and general discomfort to whoever wants me to clean the place out.

-looking into the pit- At any rate, I want to get down there. Just a few more circles and we're out...

Wait-a-minute, what's all this I hear about Hell invading Earth?

What? -looking to him- Satan hasn't been overseeing the place...I didn't really think he could be up on the surface, but...it could make sense since there's been chaos down here without him.

Yeah. You think they'll win?

Olbaid: Satan prefers to do things on his own, I know how he would think.

I don't know...but I think I remember reading about something that could tether Lucifer back down here to the Inferno. -leans over the edge of the circle to look deeper into the pit- If we could just get down there to find it...

(I suppose it's a double sin for a necro and a double post, then)

-walks to the entry of the seventh circle where the Minotaur has resumed his post- I just need one person to help me go on. -cracks my wrist and stares him down- You ready?

*pops in*

Whoa! So what am I to do here? I seemed to have died in a police shootout.

(under his breath) I knew I wouldn't have slit the throats of two hookers.
