A collaboration between AngelofOctober and Spiffy
Damien shoved the door open with a push from his telekinesis. It swung open and stayed that way as he strolled in. He wore a fine suit and sported a golden mask over his face, cigarette in the mouth hole. He took a long drag and blew a large cloud upward. It spiraled toward the ceiling like it had a mind of its' own and remained.
The door finally swung shut after Swarm made his way to an empty booth. He was waiting for someone to arrive. A new ally who would further his own goals as he would further theirs.
Wearing his cracked mask with a suit it was an odd sight to behold, however, he shuffled over calmly towards Damien who was smoke per his usual. They were going to an event. Something he could use to gain a foothold into the world of villains. Something perhaps that could give some connections. Having Swarm by his side was a good start, now it was time to think bigger and bolder. While still being cautious and aware.
"I got your call," he says calmly.
Damien took another drag and slowly exhaled before replying,
"No. That wasn't me, that was Gabriel. He does all the communications." As far as communicating was concerned, having
Gabriel do most of the talking was always a good idea.
Damien had the awful habit of making negotiations sour very quickly.
Swarm eyed the other villains with an air of superiority. They could be of use, but they would have to prove their worth first. Affliction had done so in the past, showing Swarm the extent of his capabilities and impressing him with his meatspace.
Right, Gabriel. He was still getting use to the fact that this man had different people inside of him. Something he should have known considering the name Swarm could tip him off.
"Ah yes," he replies, "Gabriel." he acts like he knew that the whole entire time though the truth was far from it.
"What are we doing here?" he adds.
Damien looked at Affliction and replied,
"The villains of Denver are meeting to take on The Community. You know, the ones who have been on the news for taking over most gangs." He looked up and saw things were starting to proceed,
"Looks like they are starting this pow-wow." He exhaled another plume of smoke into the air.
