The Abandoned Bar the Creation of Order

I'm wallowing in procrastination right now, probably wait until the weekend before I post anything.

EDIT: nvm just checked my assignment due date and its a month from now not tomorrow LOL sigh, pulled an all-nighter for nothing.

That may be awhile, since its not really on Clara's immediate to-do list.

it should be, I'm pretty sexy you know. The faster you figure it out, the more you get to be with me. It's a win win situation right?

I'm not going to post for a while unless something major comes up, so I'll be at the same place at the bar until you come to me with the sigil figured out rune.

Is Joshua going to be included in the butt joke? I feel like it's needed.

The Abandoned Bar the Creation of Order

oh no, conflicting posts. I can't change mine because it's before yours. maybe change it so you talk to Clara after I leave? I don't know

EDIT: well I could just make it an N/A post and repost if that'd work?

I sigh, noticing Joshua enjoying the little scene playing out. He looks at her, and I shake my head, telling him quietly she's off limits. I look back at her, still fuming, and sigh again.

"Who does she think she is-" Grim starts before I cut him off, "quiet Grim."

I stand up, unfazed by the threats directed at me, "Well, let's start with who I am. My name's Shitsubo, formally the Reaper, and someone who's done far worse things then you've imagined in your short lifetime. What do I want? two minutes ago nothing. However now I think you need to learn a bit of humility, arrogance only shortens your life, it doesn't lengthen it. Who am I working for? well that'd be myself. You're worried how I found out about your apartment, how about I let you in on a little secret?" I Shadow Step, dissapearing from view before appearing once again at the door, "gauge your opponents strength before you threaten them."

Just before I leave through the door I pause, "Oh and if you stopped to listen to what I said, I mentioned a forbidden book of sigils. The one you're deciphering is just a small fraction of what the book possesses. It's in your own interest to do what I said. Hate me, curse me, wish me dead, do whatever you want Clara. Yet remember, it's your fault if you miss the opportunity of a life time. I have high respect for you, so I'm willing to give you a second chance. Take as much time as you want, but don't expect a third one." With that I walk through the door, nodding to Joshua before I leave.

"You know she's just going to be more pissed now, right?" Grim says.

"Exactly. Being strong willed is a requirement, but if you can't control your own emotions, you don't deserve this book. If she can swallow her pride and learn some humility, it is only then that she can truly unlock the powers hidden within this book. It was meant for a Sorcerer after all, not just anyone can learn these sigils." My mind drifted to the other necromancer I'd seen out and about. It looked like a necromancer was experimenting and performed the Living Death experiment, not a pleasant way to live. Perhaps he deserves to know that there is a way to reverse the effects. Yet that's for another time, Clara's more important right now.

I laughed after Clara finished, "well I wouldn't want it any other way. You've passed with flying colours, consider the second test fake, the real second test was your reaction. Can't have a timid easily influenced person getting a hold of a forbidden book of sigils. However," I say, lowering my tone to express my seriousness, "you still need to decipher the symbol or there's no point in talking about this any further. Take as much time as you need, then come to me when you're done. I'll need to see an example when that time comes." I pause for a second then click my fingers, making the paper dissapear once again, this time in a different spot. "The papers now in your apartment, take as long as you want, I'll be at this same place every day from dawn to dusk."

Can I create a side character? specifically a character that provides me intelligence (as in information) at the bar, she/he will make small appearances when I interact seeking intelligence.

I paused, she's the third one to trust her instincts. "You pass the first test, Clara," I say as I click my fingers in the still air. Suddenly, within a split second, the paper dissapears from her hand and appears into mine, as if it was always there to begin with. "Intrigued now, I wager, let's see how you fare on the second one," I tell her. I click my fingers and the paper once again dissapears from my hands into hers, seemlessly as if it always existed there.

"Three hours. You have three hours to figure out not only what that symbol is, but what it does. No, before you ask, it is not teleportation." With that said, I twist my chair around and head off, quietly slipping another piece of paper across the bar. If she's the one, I need to know how much danger she's in. I settle back into my original spot, finally relaxing a bit. Too many people looking at me, it's always uncomfortable.
