twelfth pact ❖ {my apologies}

[pactum.livejournal.com]

[It's been a while, Plane. Emil appears cautiously, not accompanied by any beasts. Or girlfriends. It's just him. He glances this way and that, as if afraid of being attacked, and then he simply sighs and flumps down where he is, his back against the wall of the old movie theatre.]

Have I changed that much? Maybe I've changed too much...

[He pulls his knees to his chest and rests his forehead on them.]

How am I supposed to save the people in front of me if I can't even save myself?

I'm so pathetic...

[ooc: Itty bitty canon update! Emil has started on the Rosemary quest in order to free Regal. Hooray for ten minute canon bumps. Hope that's okay, Maggie. ♥]

[The Master looks down at the little guy]

As Tim Hann put it at Leeds, I concur.

[Emil knows that voice, and the Master is met with one of those heroic determined glares (that really just covers up the fact he's scared shitless).]

What do you want?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Apparently, not you. Hello, Hero. Killed anyone lately?

[Emil flinches.]

... Just go away.

I saw the effect of that. You hurt a very old friend of mine. And that's my job! Did your worse half get the better of you?

[Emil pulls himself up to his feet.]

... Are you done?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Usually. I'm also just getting started. I could get into esoteric technical temporal discussion, but I don't think you'd appreciate the mathematics.

[Emil decides he's going to stand here and glare at the Master 'til he gets the hint, or Emil gets the courage to drop, whichever comes first.]

Received and understood, commander. [the Master gives a salute] But then, I've been a renegade for a very long time. Contrary as a Catallan, that's me. Now are you leaving, or will you waste my time here?

[pactum.livejournal.com]

Y-you're the one wasting my time!

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Nope, definitely you doing the wasting. I'm the innocent victim here!

[pactum.livejournal.com]

Just go away!!

As the Devil said to Faust, "As you wish."

[with a laugh and a bow, the Master disappears]
