[alephbet]

[Aleph interjects.] Well, would you start a conversation with him normally?

[xroyal_bratx]

[ Ishtar spoke to strange things, so-- ]

Well...I can.

[ nervous laugh here. ]

[alephbet]

Not quite the same.

[xroyal_bratx]

I've spoken to monsters before if that helps? I mean he's just different from the ones I've talked to, but they've got some similarities....

[alephbet]

What are the monsters you know like?

[xroyal_bratx]

They're scaly, have slimy arms or legs... I don't know for sure which are the arms or the legs. I think there are some pretty ones.

There was monster with wings like an angel.

[alephbet]

So varied, huh... Like demons.

[xroyal_bratx]

Yeah, it varies. Some of them are pretty nice though....except not many understand human language.

[alephbet]

Must be difficult to get to know them.

[xroyal_bratx]

Yeah, you ca say that.

[alephbet]

So do you have any friends here like that?

[xroyal_bratx]

Well, not here right now. I mean I've had demon friends, but they look nothing like the ones from home or even yours. They look well more human...but with different parts, like say...ears and a tail?

[alephbet]

I've seen some demons like that.

[xroyal_bratx]

Oh yeah?

They're kind of powerful and sort of scary when they're mad.

[alephbet]

I can handle them.

[xroyal_bratx]

Really....? There's not a lot of people I know that can take on demons, but I guess you would be more knowledgeable about that than me...huh?

[ She could handle vampires pretty well...demons well... that's another problem. ]

[alephbet]

I have a bit of experience. It's not that uncommon in my world.

[xroyal_bratx]

That sounds pretty cool. What do you really do in your world?

[alephbet]

I'm a demon summoner. Do you mean besides that?

[xroyal_bratx]

Yeah, some people do more than one thing. I was just curious.

[alephbet]

Messiah.

[xroyal_bratx]

Oh....wow.

[alephbet]

I don't like to get a big head about it...

[xroyal_bratx]

Ah, I see. Well it sounds like you did a lot in your world.

[alephbet]

Always busy. It's kind of frustrating in this tower that there isn't much to do.
