LIAR HELL OR BUST

[iamverybadass]

Who: More Idols
Where: Liar Hell
When: Tuesday Morning

[ What's everyone up to this morning? Still stuck in Hell? Busy doing crimes? Maybe, like some people, you hopped on a train from Vengeance Hell to get over here! Hope you didn't have to give up anything too precious for that.

In any case, however you've ended up here there's still plenty to do. Shopping, restaurants, movie theaters, maybe you can even find a tour bus to make the rounds of some of the other shows being filmed here! ]

Yes, go on.

We poked around trying to find a hidden door or something, but there wasn't nothing, so we were gonna head out. Only on the way out, I touched the carvings? And there was this real bright light, and this sound like metal grinding, and then Mehniel showed up. Arariel, they called themself, before they knew we were there.

They were pretty upset. Calling for the general not to leave and stuff. They were all cut up cause they'd been fighting demons, too. Guess they thought we were the other angels coming back, and got their hopes up and rushed home.

Anyway. Then they said they had something I'd wanna see, and took us to this place called the healing room. It looked kinda like a bunch of hot springs, in an underground cave. The pools were all marked with more stuff I couldn't read, and the angel said the water was set to exorcise angels with demonic infections, and maybe it could purify me, too, without it needing to take the whole forty days.

[rollplayinghouse]

Calling for the general not to leave? What do you mean? They were talking to themselves, or trying to contact someone...?

[crossmyheartandhope]

They came running back, thinking we were some of the other angels they'd been looking for.

[rollplayinghouse]

I see...

Requiem and Intensity already mentioned the purification part, so I gather it worked.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah. Felt kinda bad disappointing em when they saw it was just us.

But, uh. Yeah. Back in one piece.

[rollplayinghouse]

...I knew the holy water burned you, before... but I don't actually know what hell effect you had, or how you got it.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Got a one-way ticket to go see Lilith. She, uh. She charges for the trip back.

[rollplayinghouse]

I know that much, from C, Nya and Yasuragi. I didn't know you'd managed to get yourself in that much trouble.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah. I, uh. I made a dumb call, is all.

[rollplayinghouse]

That's pretty vague.

But if that's not important right now, go on.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Uh. Right.

I mean, after that, the angel asked some about the people who were in jail, and the ones who were in the city. It all moved pretty quick, but the plan was, the angel was gonna go do a jail break and bust everyone out the city. Then we were supposed to round everyone up so we could get picked up.

[rollplayinghouse]

...And what exactly do "round everyone up" and "get picked up" mean?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Get everyone together in one spot so the angel could show up and take us from here to there.

[rollplayinghouse]

"There" being back to their spaceship or whatever? That's why you had Prim gathering everyone together?

"One spot" is going to be a bit hard, though.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Back to heaven, yeah.

One spot's a no go, I think, with the way they split us up. Pretty sure it's gonna have to be two.

[rollplayinghouse]

Even two might be hard. Especially if you're not telling people why they need to gather.

...I don't mean to just naysay everything. But if you really want to get everyone together it's going to need a pretty serious plan.

[crossmyheartandhope]

We got a bunch of people working together to get people out there. I think... I hope it'll be enough.

[rollplayinghouse]

That's way too optimistic. I wouldn't come based on the amount of information you're giving people. And that's assuming you even manage to communicate it to everyone, which is already a big assumption.

[crossmyheartandhope]

So what would you do?

[rollplayinghouse]

There's just no way trying to herd cats is going to work on literally everyone. If I really thought it was the right thing to do...

[she's quiet while she considers it for a while]

There's other ways to get people in one place. The demons have some magic that can do it, right? That pulls us to games and that kind of thing. We could try to get a hold of it. Or even when people ended up on busses... It would be a risk to time it, but you could do it right when they're ready to ship us back out.

[crossmyheartandhope]

What if they don't get us all together? Just... poof, grab us from wherever we are, the way we go to games.

If we could get that magic, though... that could work.

[rollplayinghouse]

That's why it's a risk. But if we don't have anything else figured out by then, it would be good if your angel could be prepared to respond quickly if they start loading us up on busses.

I'm not sure where to start with the other option, but there's got to be something...

[crossmyheartandhope]

You wanna look into that?

[rollplayinghouse]

...I can try. I have a few other things on my list too, though. I'm taking information over to the vengeance side for Talon, and running an errand for Intensity. Maybe AlcheME could get something out of Exael...
