stung

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[Here, have a Milo. He's back in his cloth, all shiny and proud but he actually looks more irritated than when he was stuck in another reality. Anyone who's sensitive to aura's and such can have a blast of nasty Cosmos as he enters. If you get too close Milo's Cosmo might even paralyze you a bit. It's sharp, cutting, kind of like being cut by the wind. Milo's not going to hurt anyone though unless you piss him off. Appearing with him is a chunk of a pillar at the perfect size to use as a stool.]

Fate so hates being tempted. I need to learn to remember that. My temple fell quite literally, besides that it still stinks of roses.

And Leo has volunteered to "observe" me. Goddess give me patience so that I don't end up murdering him in his sleep.

...this is perhaps a sign that I need a vacation. Someplace miserable maybe, Delos better yet Erimomilos. If only it wouldn't be taken as a sign of running away. As it is this place is my refuge for the moment and it doesn't even pass time.

No one tell me to meditate.

[Milo sits down on his pillar and glares into space.]

[Here's Shun wanting to say something to Milo, but he's wary of the Scorpio Saint's cosmo.]

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[Milo gives Shun a slightly annoyed glance.]

Speak up and stop hovering, Andromeda. I don't bite.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

[Jumps a little, he hadn't realized he as being that obvious] Umm...if you really want to go on a vacation, you can ask Saori-san for some leave time. After everything that's happened, I'm sure she would understand if you wanted some time...alone.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

Athena isn't the problem. [He almost sighs but instead just closes his eyes, brows furrowing.] I will have to deal with Aioria eventually.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

[Has come a little closer] Is Aioria mad at you or something?

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[Milo arches an eyebrow.] ...no. He's...on edge because of the coming war.

[He does sigh now because as annoying as having Aioria doubt him is he can understand where it came from.]

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

[Very softly] Oh. I guess that make sense. [Shun is now trying not to think Hades]

[leschath.livejournal.com]

What will be will be. We have all been prepared for this, there's no need to grieve our passing. [This is as close to comforting as Milo gets.]

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

[That last statement startles Shun] How did you know that you..?[Shuts up]

[contract_star]

[Keeping his distance because, yeah, it feels a bit like standing under an overloaded transformer. Also because he's not entirely sure how to approach Milo. So he just stands there, being inconspicuous, sorta.]

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[Milo turns sharply to look at Li but then just leaves him because he really isn't in the mood to confront him at the moment if Li feels like being a coward.]

[contract_star]

[Cowardly? Yes. All a Contractor really has is his survival instincts. Still, everything that's happened since Hei arrived on the Plane has challenged everything he understands about reality, particularly when it comes to relating to other people. So, another moment passes, and then Hei sighs and smiles a little.]

I hope I didn't leave to big of a mess for you.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[It takes Milo a moment to turn to him, honestly he wasn't expecting Li to say anything.]

Well I have a roommate now.

[contract_star]

[Oh boy, if Hei had any talent for jokes...]

Aioria? He seemed the most suspicious of me. He must know you pretty well.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[Well the lack of talent there saves him from Milo being a prick on purpose again. Milo thinks about whether he's close to Aioria for a bit.]

Out of the ones still alive he knows me best.

[contract_star]

That explains it then.

It'll be alright, won't it? I'd hate for there to be infighting.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

If we fight we fight. It will pass.

[lamb_of_gold]

[OW. Cosmo. Ow.]

There are worse smells than roses.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

No, I'd disagree.

[Frowns and reigns his cosmo in somewhat out of consideration for Mu.]

[lamb_of_gold]

I'd rather roses than blood, but I suppose that's preference.

Do you have any idea as to why Scorpio collapsed?

[leschath.livejournal.com]

Perhaps a rose ate the keystone. Or the universe just didn't like Li.

Well...I don't think it'd be surprising which I prefered between blood and roses.

[lamb_of_gold]

I would think it the roses that caused the collapse - it seems every 'wrong' that occurred in our absences instantly righted, so unless Scorpio was in the process of falling as Li left, I doubt it would have fallen on you purposefully.

Regardless, how long do you think it will take to repair? More importantly, how long will you be stuck with Aioria. You two don't always get along...

[leschath.livejournal.com]

It didn't fall on me, it was just a pile of marble when I got back. It was probably falling as Li left. Or Fate saw it fit to taunt me.

...Perhaps a month? The foundation is still there, I need to clear it out and rebuild it.

[lamb_of_gold]

Hmm. Well then I suppose it doesn't matter then.

A month with the lion, hm? Good luck.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

Thanks Mu, your well wishes will do me wonders.
