[ The ritual, the sigil, the blood— all of it was ultimately unnecessary. All it took was Asmodeus's name being expelled from his lungs into the air and time, it feels, crystallizes around the moment. 99 and Anubis are still there, but they're so much less immediate than the feeling of eyes on your back. Someone watching you, waiting for you to turn around. ]

[cutting it close yeah, so:]

What about ones like me and Mars--Warden. That just a coincidence?

... do you even keep track of the idols, actually?

If it's not, Pythia chose a very trivial point to break terms on.

[ Raises an eyebrow ]

Are you feeling neglected?

So neglected, my face just stopped feeling like it was getting shoved into the wall.

[sarcastic as fuck]

I was just asking because I doubt demons recognize the differences between one idol over another, let alone bother with names. Since we're basically just commodities to you.

I could happily reintroduce the two, if you were feeling lonely.

[ Smooth, as if it was an actual offer ]

For most, you'd be correct. But once you catch my eye, the trick isn't keeping it.

Should I ask who has caught your eye so far?

You've seen him around.

[YOU'RE NOT FUNNY]

... is there any advantages to catching your eye before graduation is an option, is the real question.

I'm willing to make it worth the while.

[huffs at that]

Vague. Too soon to ask for a phone number?

Quality as your drunk texts must be, I'm not in the habit.

[rolls his eyes]

Guess I'm still not quite on the mark to think of anything myself.

Any final words of wisdom?

Strike three.

[ you must have been expecting that, really.

and there's a boot on Boss's backside, kicking him out the door that's materialized in the wall ]
