11th Spell

Don't be mad at Sylvanas, everyone. It wasn't her fault. I think Arthas used his magic to hypnotize her into doing his bidding and laid his mind eggs inside her patterned brainwaves - all metaphorically, of course. It happens sometimes.

That was fun, though. I've never banished a demon before. I didn't think it would be so complex.

[Private to the dinner crew]

I'm thinking something with molasses. Are any of you good with molding?

Mr. Creed?

Blindness isn't always a bad thing.

[broughtwhiskey]

Then you've been lucky.

[whatthewrackspurt]

Exceptionally.

Why don't you like looking on the bright side of things?

[broughtwhiskey]

It's better to prepare for the worst. People die otherwise.

[There's also possibly a piece in there about getting your hopes up, but you're not gonna hear him say that out loud.]

[whatthewrackspurt]

People are dead here.

[broughtwhiskey]

And they can die again and again.

[whatthewrackspurt]

They get chances to live again and start over.

[broughtwhiskey]

They don't always deserve it.

[whatthewrackspurt]

Then this might be their time to earn it.

[broughtwhiskey]

There are some things you can't come back from.

[whatthewrackspurt]

Sorry, were we talking about you, or someone else?

[broughtwhiskey]

Someone else.

[And him.]

[Shut up, Luna!!]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Someone on the Barge or someone at home?

[broughtwhiskey]

I'm talking in abstracts. It's no one specific.

[whatthewrackspurt]

Sorry. Only it sounds very...personalized.

[broughtwhiskey]

Then you're reading too much into it.

[whatthewrackspurt]

I'm sorry. You're a curiously closed-off individual.

[broughtwhiskey]

Meaning?

[whatthewrackspurt]

Meaning it's hard to read your emotions. You don't let people in.

[broughtwhiskey]

And why should I?

[He has no use for people. And generally speaking, they have no use for him either. It works better this way.]

[whatthewrackspurt]

It might mean you stand a better chance of graduating sooner.

[broughtwhiskey]

I don't care about any of that.

[whatthewrackspurt]

It's all right by you to stay here forever?

[broughtwhiskey]

Doesn't make much of a difference.

[Not his preference though.]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Are you a prisoner in your world, too?
