<Snipped quote by Artifact>

It’s fine. Please. Stop.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I—Uh—Do you think he’s really after you?

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Turns to my curtains and looks into the hazy view of outside*
I don't know. It wouldn't be unlike him to toy with me until I lose it. And it wouldn't be unlike me to inflict that on myself for him.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

If he’s some mastermind, why would he worry about you?

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

He’s cruel. That’s it, he’s cruel and wants revenge.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I mean, it feels like if he wanted to hunt you down you'd already be dead.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

That—
*Pinches the bridge of my nose for a few seconds and then smiles*
You know Isis, sometimes you have your own special way of making people feel better.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I'll take that!

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Here’s the thing: if you ever notice anything weird—shadows or somebody following us—you need to let me know right away, okay? It could be life or death.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Now I'm going to be paranoid all the time.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

That would at least be an improvement.

<Snipped quote by Nemeses>

*Holds both of my hands out toward the chunks of rock barreling toward me and as they draw near, one crack forms, and then another, before finally the remains of the asteroid crash into celestial rubble, filling up the area*
Enough of the grandstanding, both of you. We have a job to do, and we're going to finish that job.
*Magic circles form in sequence above me, and I rocket into the air, ping-ponging between unpredictable points in space as I spiral toward where you stand*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Stands still amidst the chaos, unharmed and seemingly unperturbed*
It's a job to you, and a point to me. I'll do the grandstanding, and you two can do the failing.
*Flashes a smirk and a glance directly at your current position as I finish my statement, and an invisible pulse creates a shockwave through your position and blasts you out of your current trajectory*

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Hey, wait a second!

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Laughs*
Never change, Isis.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Speaking of, have you seen Avis?

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Mmm, no, not really. She's been uncharacteristically quiet.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*opens the door with a couple of large boxes of pizza and a slice in my mouth*
