[ The pain surged throughout his physical form. Where an arm and a good chunk of body once was now hung only tattered bits of cloth and a gloved hand gripping the gaping wound. The staff dropped to the ground with a clatter as he fell to his knees on the Astral Plane. Seething in pain his body hunched over, allowing his violet hair to fan out on the ground. Up and down his back moved, gasping for air through gritted teeth as blood trickled down the corner of his mouth.

His cloak tattered from the attack so graciously caste upon him by Gaav, Xellos was unaware of the fact that this trip to the Astral Plane was unlike any other he had been to before. All of his attention was focused on the pain that surged through this human-like body. But anyone watching would notice that there was no sign of blood seeping from the gaping injury - not a single drop. Instead there was nothing but nothingness.

No, really, it was black and empty, void of all physical being. ]

D- damn it... !

[ All the while he grunted and cursed the Demon Dragon King for this. It was going to take time to heal this injury, let alone grow back his arm. Had it not been for the fact that he had recognized the Hellmaster back in the physical plane, he certainly would have been a goner. But his task was finished the moment he caught sight of Phibrizzo.

And here he was, writhing in pain, blissfully unaware at first what was going on around him or the fact that this astral plane was not the one from his own reality. ]

Oh, good. It'd be a shame to die right away.

[cankeepasecret.livejournal.com]

Of course it would-- where would the fun in that be?

[madamemoiselle]

There wouldn't be any! Ne, but there's no blood, so that's especially not fun! Nothing to eat. ♥

[cankeepasecret.livejournal.com]

Well then, my apologies to you.

[madamemoiselle]

How sweet~ But you don't need to apologize for what you're lacking, now do you? What are you?

[cankeepasecret.livejournal.com]

Now, you see... [ Despite being in excruciating pain he manages to wink at her, bringing his index finger to the side of his face with a smirk. ] ... that is a secret.

[madamemoiselle]

Ah~ Really? That's no fun, though!

[cankeepasecret.livejournal.com]

Secrets are always enjoyable.

[madamemoiselle]

Oh, not always! I found that out recently, after all.

[cankeepasecret.livejournal.com]

That's quite a shame! [ Grits his teeth as he's still focusing on his injuries. ] I find them to always be amusing.

[madamemoiselle]

You must have not had any big ones, then.

{Smiles; she is so not concerned about your pain, Xellos} Or maybe you have.

[ Chuckling through his teeth, closed eyes were focusing on the gaping wound. ] Always questioning, eh?

[madamemoiselle]

Mm, not always! But it's curious. We have incredible people here, but I don't think there are any that can stay alive with that kind of injury.

[cankeepasecret.livejournal.com]

I suppose I'm not like many others-- after all, I am merely a mysterious priest.

[madamemoiselle]

Very mysterious! Ne, but I guess you're suited to the Astral Plane, then. It's pretty mysterious too.

[ Focus on the shoulder. Focus on weaving it back together-- ] Is that what this place is named?

[madamemoiselle]

{Nods} It is~
