Golden Age: Revival

*Allina leans in on the cell phone.*

Allina: <HI EURYALE!>

=====

Ari: <It doesn't... but... isn't your goal to defeat the Illuminati as well? Perhaps constantly making them see you as another enemy isn't the most effective way to achieve it.>

<What they do is none of my concern. If they DO kill Nobunga, it just means one less enemy for me to worry about.>
==========================================
E"Umm...okay? ...Hi, Allina."

N"There, you heard the girl."

"All righty then."

*He hangs up.*

Allina: <Let's go then!>

=====

Ari: <I think... I think you do care about them. What's the point in making them think you're an enemy?>

*A few minutes later, Euryale opens her door while Nero's still bent over with a lock pick in his hand.*

E"...What are you doing?"
=======================================
<It serves my purposes.>

"Something that would normally get people hit. Also being dumb."

*Allina walks in past Euryale and turns around to face her.*

Allina: <Where do you keep the food?>

=====

Ari: <You're more like Master Lilith than T-Thiera, really...>

*He sits down on the sand(?) next to her.*

<I HOPE I'm not secretly being lusted after by a vampire. We have chairs, you know.>
==========================================
E"You're not eating all of my food."

*Roatha slips in while she's addressing Allina.*

N"Can we order some pizzas?"

E"I guess. But anyone who plans on eating has to chip in."

*She looks back.*

E"Hey...is he avoiding me?"

Allina: <Pizza sounds awesome. Even though I just had pizza.>

*She takes out her phone and calls her usual pizzeria.*

Allina: <How many and how do you want them?>

=====

Ari: <Yes.>

*Ari sticks his sword in the sand in front of him and starts drawing circles on the blue blade with his fingers.*

Ari: <They could need our help.>

Taiyo:<Pineapple!>

Azuma & Mimiru:<"Pepperoni.">

Taiyo:<Eeee, you two are so cute.>

Mimiru:<Sh... Shut up.>

N"One with everything, one with pineapple, & one with pepperoni, then."

E"Stheno only eats cheese."

N"So a cheese too."
========================================
<I'm not going to be an accomplice to an assassination.>

Allina: <Three with everything, one with pineapply, one with pepperoni, and one with cheese only. Yeah. Yes, to... (....) Okay. Thanks, good evening.>

=====

Ari: <...But aren't their intentions good?>

"Good God. First you say you already had pizza and now you're ordering two more. Do you have kids to feed or are you just horribly gluttonous?"

Allina: <I just really love pizza.>

*She shrugs.*

N"She has to feed that brain parasite. It's running out of brain. Euryale. Give Stheno the pizza & tell her to eat in her room.*

E"What? Why?"

N"We came here to talk about our plan to kill the Emperor of Japan."
========================================
<That's not how it works in the real world. The only way they MIGHT have a chance at being aquitted is if they somehow manage to prove that Nobunga is an evil sorcerer. Good luk with that.>

Ari: <Maybe they can, with your help.>

=====

Allina: <You guys are real jerks.>

*She leaves enough money to pay for all of the pizzas on the table and fucks off.*

"Real classy, Nero."

E"Whoa, whoa, you want to fill me in, here?"
====================================
*Roatha follows Allina out a second later.*
====================================
<Not terribly likely. Magic is something you kind of have to catch somebody doing. And even then, they can spin a story about it being some kind of trick.>

"Nero added a bunch of things up and came to the conclusion that Japan is out to get us. Logically we have to kill the emperor."

*She walks down the street looking mighty mad.*

=====

Ari: <Perhaps... but...>

*He sighs and looks at her.*

Ari: <W-When the other Thiera and I first officially met Lady Kelphy, Thiera was glad she wasn't the only wizard in the group.>

<Technically, she wasn't a wizard, she was a diviner.>
========================================
N"You're not doing it justice! We get attacked by a bunch of JAPANESE monsters & the Emperor just HAPPENS to play host to Koshkey after you guys boot him out of Russia? Come on."

E"The Russian guy? I wondered what happened to him."
========================================
*A ghost white, faceless, genital-less, nude androgynous person runs towards Allina from the opposite side of the street.*

"That wasn't exactly a grand adventure. I went to Russia and I didn't even get a lousy t-shirt."

*Allina shrieks and readies a fist.*

=====

*Ari looks at her like 'C'mon.'*

N"Guess you should have bought one, then."

E"Well, before we go killing people, we should probably make sure they're after us."
===========================================
*It turns around, kneels down, & pries open its ass cheeks to reveal a bloodshot, yellow eye glaring back at her.*
===========================================
<I fail to see the relevence.>

*He shrugs and shuts up.*

=====

Allina: <EW, what the fuck is going on?!>

*She readies a kick.*
