[Final Day] The Crow

[arsgoetia]

"Found you," says the feathered demon with the notebook, snapping it shut. He smiles at you too widely.

The demon's eyes brighten. "I like secrets," it confesses.

...

I have lots of secrets.

[arsgoetia]

"Like the stray over there?" The demon's gaze goes sharply towards the gravestone behind which Kit is hiding. "Is he a friend? Is he a secret? Hm, hmmm . . ."

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

He's one but not the other.

[arsgoetia]

Kit thinks something like, "Oh no, not again."

[arsgoetia]

"Which is it?" the crow asks. "Tell me."

Who says I give information for free? ♥

[arsgoetia]

The demon's smile widens uncannily. It flips open its notebook.

"I trade," it tells her.

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

What a coincidence! Me too.

[arsgoetia]

The demon reaches in a pocket and pulls out a gold piece about the size of its palm.

*WAIT WAIT NO BAD ANISE*

Nuh-uh! I meant information for information.

[arsgoetia]

The demon tilts its head. "A little bit of both?" it suggests, producing a second coin. It is so shiny.

*dlkjsf;kgHfg*

Just information!

[arsgoetia]

The demon pulls a glittering white stone out of its other pocket. It may be a sweet-ass diamond.

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

Please stop.

[arsgoetia]

The demon smiles wider :)

Okaaay, I guess you don't want to deal after all!

[arsgoetia]

"I guess you don't want to deal after all," the demon mimicks.

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

That's just so sad...

*walks toward the graveyard entrance*

[arsgoetia]

There is a crow blocking your path. It cawwws loudly and fluffs its wings.

Meanwhile, the demon has gone for Kit.

[arsgoetia]

Kit clearly needs to learn some kind of spiritual self-defense at this rate, good God.

*ARRRGH looses an arte at the demon*

LIMITED, YOU BASTARD!

[arsgoetia]

The demon doesn't move for a long moment, then, much like a crow in the face of oncoming traffic, it performs some sort of bizarre last-minute maneuver and hops just out of the path of danger.

[arsgoetia]

Kit says, "Look, can we not do the hostage thing..."
