[homicidalrage]

[ they're doing great ]

Given how social we are I'm surprised you know anyone at all from us. Who is it?

[rainshaveceased]

Vergil. We happen to have some associates in common, so he has been somewhat willing to make an effort at socialising.

[homicidalrage]

[ hold on. That's odd. Who even knows Vergil outside of Baritones ]

... Do you. And who are these associates? We happen to be close as well.

[rainshaveceased]

Cosmo and Alexander. Do you know them?

[homicidalrage]

[ he doesn't answer, hold on, give him a moment. He's grabbing his phone to check people's profiles because he's getting suspicious. Emet did talk to him after all ]

—Shit. You're Elidibus.

[rainshaveceased]

[wait

hold on]

...Are you Five?

[homicidalrage]

[ this was the worst first impression he could give, oh no ]

... Yes.

I'm glad you already heard about me. It's good to meet you.

[rainshaveceased]

[elidibus is getting such good impressions of his stepdads]

Emet-Selch told me about you, and how important you are to him.

[homicidalrage]

[ his face does go a little red at that, and he clears his throat, trying to push the embarrassment away ]

He's just as important to me. And both he and Lahabrea have told me quite a lot about you as well. How important you are for them, and their hopes for the future. A future they want you to be part of.

[rainshaveceased]

[makes an attempt at a smile]

That future is very important to me, as they have surely told you as well.

[homicidalrage]

[ he nods ]

I know all three of you have worked tiressly to save your world. And I know you will continue to do so. But if there's an advantage to this place is that it allows you to seek out paths that weren't available to you before, so ... you can count on Vergil and I to help you with as much of that as possible.

Come to Taisho when you have time. We have a few notebooks to pass on to you.

[rainshaveceased]

Yes, Emet-Selch already shared some of your research with me. I have been meaning to discuss it with you.

[homicidalrage]

Then we can go after this game.

[ which he will start now ]

Not that I have any intention of letting you win still. But we can talk more openly once we are in private.

[rainshaveceased]

Of course.

[time to play some cards! which he will probably lose because he was given a kind of shit explanation of the rules]

[homicidalrage]

[ look if he knew it was elidibus he would have made a better effort! But he will not go easy on him because five is a sore loser so he'll take the victory even if it's a easy one. But once they're done, he'll gather the cards and just hand them to him ]

Try and win against someone else for that request of yours. If you're ready, then let's go.

[rainshaveceased]

Indeed. Lead the way.

[homicidalrage]

[ he'll lead him back to Taisho, and because he's terrible at making small talk, he won't even try. But when they are close, he does speak again ]

Right, just in case you were wondering, I've taken an aging up potion. Normally what you've met before is how I usually look. A time traveling accident — but I know pointing out my age is not exactly worth much when it comes to your kind.

[rainshaveceased]

Considering my current size, I am in no position to make any remarks about anyone's appearances. I have already been mistaken for a child once.

[homicidalrage]

Well I did imagine you a little less childlike myself. Is that your actual form or an accident of this place?

[rainshaveceased]

...It is an approximation. Of course, my original form was taller.

[homicidalrage]

Oh. So it's only the size that is different.

[ once they are at Taisho's landing he will open the door and gesture for him to go inside ]

I'll be sure to keep that in mind for when I end up seeing your true form properly.

[rainshaveceased]

[going in!]

It hardly matters much.

[homicidalrage]

Well. Considering I do plan on living with you once your world has been saved it will matter to me - if only so I will be able to recognize you.

[ he'll lead him to his room because he's rude and he's not giving the Taisho dorms toor, it's fine, w/e!! And then he'll gesture for him to sit down while he goes to gather all the notebooks and things they've collected thus far. There's an entire wall that is a giant blackboard and there are of course all sorts of mathemtical equations written in there ]

I know Emet-Selch has told you some of our plans, how much did he go into and do you have questions?

[rainshaveceased]

[it's fine because he doesn't actually give a shit about the taisho dorm anyway. the blackboard wall, on the other hand, does get a curious glance]

He gave me some of your notes. The plan itself seems fairly straightforward, but I do have quite a few questions.

[homicidalrage]

[ once he's gathered the notebooks and books they have used as studying material he just drops them right next to Elidibus one after the other. IT IS A LOT OF STUFF ]

I've been studying your world's magic - the arcane, to translate my own methods of time traveling for you. The bulk of these are about that - ways in which we can adapt my abilities to something more suited to yours. But we are working on trying to find a stable way to travel between our worlds easily. If our primary plan is to succeed, then you would first come to my world, and avert your final days after we've secured a few pieces of technology.

Now's your time to ask your questions.
