(no subject)

Right. Summary of Lucifer's Crazy Evening - as I was raving to various people on various IM services, I played four different versions of the devil for eight hours straight. Ahaha. Fun.

All of these threads occured more or less simultaneously, causing havoc in both my brain and my inbox, but I've shoved them into a vague order to preserve contuinuity for myself and Adam-mun, whose evening was almost as mixed up.

Lucifer's post is here.



Part the First - Sario

A while ago Lucifer asked to see the painting that Sario had done of him, and he now reminds him of this. They discuss the logistics of bringing the paintings from the House Of Arch and Lucifer tells an outright lie. Sario returns with the painting, and Lucifer asks to buy it from him. Sario asks for Lucifer to retrieve his most precious painting in return. After this moment of politeness, Lucifer gets bored and resumes bastard mode. Sario is forced to examine his morals, and Lucifer is cryptic at him. Repeatedly. Sario has unpleasant deja vu, and asks Lucifer to move his painting into his room before he leaves.

Part the Second - Kassandra

Kassandra appears, covered in Odysseus' blood, and they enquire after each other's health. Lucifer tells the truth this time, even if only part of it. Kassandra asks after Billy, and makes the mistake of revealing a vision. Lucifer gets pulled into it, and things quickly turn nasty. Lucifer mentions Sirius and makes a very cruel dig about Odysseus. (Meanwhile, Selkie The Sadomasochist is having the time of her life...)

Before things can get too violent, Crowley limps over to interfere, Sariel in tow. They have a muttered conversation about Crowley's lack of a solid plan, but the demon ends up going with sheer bravado. Lucifer releases Kassandra and threatens Sariel, and all three of them beat a hasty retreat.

Part the Third - Adam

Adam comes over to confront his father, who is understandably surprised to see him. Adam obviously has Issues regarding his lack of a father-figure. Lucifer challenges Adam's judgement of him. It all sounds rather explicity Freudian. Lucifer then dumps logic on his son's head, but is distracted when Adam mentions Crowley. Adam proceeds to be amazingly hedgy when it comes to saying what actually happened, and is his usual obnoxious bratty self. It is revealed that Adam blames Crowley for the whole Apocalypse debacle, but Lucifer displays vague feelings of approval for the demon. To change the subject, he tries to read Adam's emotions, and is very amused by what he sees. Adam goes into Denial Mode, and Lucifer cheats. Adam tries to protect Paul, and it's all rather sweet in a disturbing way. Soon enough Adam tries to get out of the conversation, but Lucifer offers him Atlantean and makes a shot at being fatherly. They talk about mortality and the fact that Adam doesn't care for his humanity any more. The boy displays attitudes from his father's side of the family. Finally, Lucifer gives his son a condesned version of the Talk and makes a bad joke that I swear wouldn't have sounded like such a clever idea if I hadn't been braindead at the time.

Lucifer then goes back upstairs to the room. This next part can be excused by the fact that Hob-mun and I were desperate to RP our characters together again and the fact that one of them is currently comatose was not going to stand in our way, dammit!

Part the Fourth - Hob's Dream

(In which Fahye and Art display exactly how weird narrative can get when both participants are suffering from sleep deprivation, and why online dream dictionaries are handy things indeed)

I tried to summarise this and failed miserably, because it's a story rather than a conversation. Basically? There is a lot of symbolism, imagery and lazy conversation. Also kissing. Also pyromania.

Keep an eye out for the hysterically appropriate dream-meanings of guitars and fireworks. I almost had a fit when I looked them up.

...that was exhuasting. Kudos to Rami, Ashie, Selkie and Art for putting up with my erratic replies as I scrambled to keep up with all four conversations, and sorry again to those players who I had to ignore.

In conclusion: Milliways ownz0rs my soul. The end.

*cheers*

Well done, Frar! It was fun, and Offically started Sario's Worst Day Over.

Plus, I love Lucifer. The father from hell *nods*

What. What. What. Were we thinking.

No, that's a lie. I know what we were thinking: OOOOOOOH PRETTY SHINY WOAH.

And, you know, it kinda was. *grin*

And the truly hilarious part? NO IDEA which particular mind-breakage that's in reference to. Although I have a pretty good idea.

Awww, everyone loves Hob. And he was just so broken. You know what makes the whole thread creepier? Listening to punk rock while reading it.

Yeah, I was listening to John Mayer's "Neon," and somehow that makes it all okay.

(Seriously, that was a kickass dream. ^.^)

Thanks!

Although its natural soundtrack at a certain point is unavoidably the Pixies (...) I really feel the Buzzcocks also do quite well.
