Re: Another Way

Sean seemed to have a rather exciting life and has many topics he can talk about when speaking about his past, opening a portal over a small town in Georgia certainly caught his attention, Sam hadn't heard anything about that and Sean seemed to speak about it nonchalantly as if it was one of those things that he did every day.

"They want to make Earth look like this place? At least we will be able to name it whatever we want, so I say that Super Happy Fun Land is back on the table" Sam wasn't really sure how to feel about the possibility of making Earth look just like this place, his whole life he has spent saving and helping random people and now he was a part of a group that planned on destroying all of those people as well as the wildlife, civilization as a whole would be gone.

"Well you probably heard me talking a little bit about myself back in that big room, but I'll go into a bit more detail. I come from England, nice place, crap weather, rains pretty much all of the time, it's pretty miserable around there, your race will love it. I went into a forest for fun with a bunch of friends one day and I was seperated from them, this weird spirit flew through me and I woke up in a hospital with the powers I have now, i found it soon after that the spirit was a women that was killed by her crazed husband in the same forest, I was also the only one out of all of my friends to escape from the forest. I didn't really know what to do then, I panicked and ran away from my home and left my family and moved into an abandoned house somewhere around London. I met this girl, she was really nice, she was from America so I showed her around the city a bit and treated her really nice, she was the one that gave me the stray cat... Hmm what else... Oh yeah! I was pretty much abducted by this company called Abraxis and they tested me for a bunch of different things leaving me with some bad scars on my back, I stayed in America since then... Found the girl that I met back in England, kissed her, she didn't kiss back blah blah blah, not important... now I live happily with another woman who pops in and out because of her... erm... work." At this point Sam realized that he had pretty much been rambling about his entire life story, he hoped Sean didn't mind.

"That's pretty much everything about me..."

So they were talking origin stories now? Sean was never really one to give away dark secrets, and all of that other nice stuff, but not like it would hurt any. ”Believe me, I would rather make this place more colorful….but then again anything colorful around here becomes monochrome or dark as hell before long.” Even if it was expected of Sean, he knew that was only while his foolish ancestor was sitting upon the throne, where he seemed to have absolute rule or something like that. Hell, he would have rather lived on Earth without this place, considering that atleast he would not have to eternally hear such beaurocratic bullshit forever, with eternal monochrome around him.

”A girl? Well this raises a thousand questions.” Sean said raising a single brow, now more interested than before, and perhaps a little intrigued about who this mystery woman was. ”As for me, can’t really say I have too much of an interesting story. Didn’t really get evil demon ghost lady powers, just touched a weird artifact, lost my water powers or something, and now I had this weird dark energy. It was alright, and then I met someone, they had the strangest energy and it brought something out in me. Before I knew it, I had hurt everyone that I had ever cared for, and now I’m here, though there is also the person who caused my life to spiral out of control.” Sean chuckled lightly.

”Instead of trying to kill the person that managed to ruin my entire life, I don’t know what they are to me. I occasionally live with him on this large island with giant worms, a dragon and other things, and its overall nice. Prettier than The Abyss anyway, you might like it actually.” His mind thought over it, mostly what exactly Ouroboros was to him, and nothing really came of that thought process other than a headache.

by **Samify** September 26th 2013, 7:49 pm

Sam was slightly confused by this story, Sean claimed to live with the man that ruined his life, it sounded extremely strange to him, if Sam was in this position he would move to the other side of the world and try to be as far away from them as possible. The island that Sean spoke of did sound quite interesting though, giant worms and dragons? Sounded like a strange array of animals to have but it would be a fun experience he hoped.

"As for the girl, I haven't really seen a lot of her lately, we seemed to be on ok terms though, I was pretty crazy about her when we were with each other though, it did take me a long time to get over her but I think i have done it now, this other woman has certainly helped me move past it although I think it's going to take some hefty persuasion skills to try and get her to come into the Abyss, even if it is only for a short visit, I'm still trying to get used to this to be honest..."

by **Arcana** September 26th 2013, 8:12 pm

So she was some kind of romantic interest, or something like that? If so, Sean wondered if this woman was even worth being something to a member of his race, one that was as powerful and ancient as the Titan’s. ”You’re worried about her not wanting to come here?”Sean wondered raising an eyebrow alittle confused, though it could be that he wondered if she would even survive it. Any normal human would find it difficult to survive here without special apparatus, but then again that was when most of them had that special collar around their necks. Sam was strong enough to survive without needing one, and he would only become stronger now that he was a Titan.

’Don’t worry too much about that, I’m sure someone as…. charming as you can talk her into coming here, the cat can come to. If anything, we Titan’s are rather attached to our felines, though they are mostly hidden around the castle. You might find a few on your walk through.” Sean added seeming to make some small talk. After all, if he was planning to let this one serve under him, and perhaps at a higher rank than your average Half-Titan, then he would need to know him a little better, the vine like tattoos that covered his body would glow for a moment, and then retreat back to the left side of his body.

In short he had reverted to his half form, and the aura of Nether around Sean had grown lighter, and more warmth had returned to his body. ’Well I’m hungry, aren’t you? Don’t worry though, we have normal food.” Sean added with a wink, not really moving from his position.

by **Samify** September 26th 2013, 8:38 pm

Sam went slightly red, he appreciated that Sean thought that he was charming, although the way he said it did creep Sam out ever so slightly. He was also relieved to hear that Titan's were fans of felines, he was wondering whether taking care of a cat would make him look weird and weak to the rest of the members, all he really wanted to do for the first few days was fit in with everyone else and make acquaintances.

It had been some time since he had last eaten and come to think of it, his stomach was rumbling quite substantially. "That's good to hear, the berries only last for a short amount of time, I could do with some food." Sam was expecting Sean to get up and show him to wherever they could find some food, but he was still laying his head on his lap, Sam couldn't exactly move so he just had to sit there until Sean decided to get up.

by **Arcana** September 26th 2013, 9:10 pm

”Yeah, eating only berries can get rather dull.” Sean added pressing his hands to the bed spread, and pushing himself up from his sitting position, though that was only after he was pretty sure circulation was being cut off. ’Hey, servant people!” Sean said out loud as one of the human servants was sheepishly open the door. He was a male around his early twenties, with short hair and the body of a jock. Sean had chosen him personally from the human world, and now he lived in a nice castle, with all the nice stuff. ”Get me and my friend here something to eat. For me I was thinking some kind of Italian pasta thing, like spaghetti. No, ravioli full of all the cheeses possible, and the finest wine you have there.” Sean would let Sam say what he wanted, and then the male would nod, and walk out to get their food from an expansive kitchen. ”Now all we can do is wait.”

by **Samify** September 26th 2013, 10:19 pm

Sean finally lifted himself off of Sam's lap, causing it to remain quite warm shortly afterwards. He then called for a man to enter and he seemed to enter rather reluctantly, he looked slightly dirty with some black marks on his face, he looked to be around the same age as Sam though and was larger than he was. Sean made it clear to him what kind of food he wanted, he then looked over to Sam and waited for his request, "Erm... I'll keep within the Italian theme and take a pepperoni pizza if you don't mind" Sam felt very weird about asking this man to make his food for him, but if he was to live in this castle, he would probably have to get used to it.

"Asking for food and waiting for it to come to me is making me even more hungry, sooner or later I'm going to start smelling it from wherever its being made and I'll want to eat a pillow or something... Although I am interested to see if Abyss Pizza is nicer than the pizza I've eaten back in the real world." Sam assumed it would be infused with some kind of Nether energy to make it nice, everything in the abyss seemed to have some kind of Nether energy in or around it so it wouldn't surprise him. The more time he spent in the castle, the stronger he really felt, he must have been adapting rather quickly to the energy that surrounded him.

by **Arcana** September 26th 2013, 11:08 pm

”Well all of the people preparing the food know what they’re doing, so the taste should be excellent. At least I think so, haven’t tried the pizza yet.” Sean admitted with a shrug. It was likely that they would add a small bit of Nether that would keep the Half Titan’s strength up, as well as filling their bellies with some actual food, seeing as he was still partially human. It was true that within this world that Sean felt stronger, but then again that was any Titan that was in their home world for a certain amount of time. ”Eat a pillow?” Sean questioned with a chuckle, smirking widely. ”If you want to eat one of those rough things, be my guest.” He said falling back on the bed, and rolling around so that he was still looking at the male that was adorned with the markings of his new race. It felt nice somewhat, having someone to talk with, even if this was something that he wasn’t sure would last for too long.

by **Samify** September 27th 2013, 12:08 am

Sam looked to the pillows sitting beside Sean as he rolled back onto his bed, he leaned over slowly and patted one to see what he meant by his statement, they were rather rough and heavy and seemed impossible to sleep on, the thought of bringing in his bed from home and replacing it with the one in his room was beginning to sound good, at least it was something familiar, at the very least he could just exchange the pillows. Sam began to move around the room, looking at some of the decorations on the walls as well as some of the items that were lounging around, "So what are we supposed to do all day?... Sit around? Because that doesn't actually sound like a bad thing" he said with a small smile.

Sam stood by the side of the window and looked out of it, pretty pointless to have a window in this place, what was there to look at? The view simply showed the grey plains as far as the eye could see, looking at it for too long would cause Sam's vision to go funny so he rubbed his eyes as he moved back to the bed. Sam laid down on the bed this time, but kept his feet off of it, he was still wearing his shoes and didn't want to make it look dirty, everything felt quite hard and Sam wondered how anyone could be comfortable on something like this.

by **Arcana** September 27th 2013, 12:57 am

”What are we going to do?”Sean parroted for a moment, rubbing his chin as if he had no idea what they would be doing all day, but maybe Smoke was not interested in doing what Sean did when he was bored, and in The Abyss. Sean did have those servants for more than cleaning up after him and fetching him dinner when the mood had arisen. It seemed that Sam had seen how horribly uncomfortable the pillows were, and how his bed was not anywhere as good. Sean rolled about until he could get more comfortable on his own bed, and crossed his legs, as the markings now only adorning half of his body. Silver pools would follow the subtle movements of the male as he meandered over to the window, one that would only look out to a forbidding wasteland.

He noticed a slight change his disposition after looking out for too long, and then he returned to Sean’s bed, one that would have to be changed out for something better soon enough. Slamming his knuckles lightly against the bed, he could feel it hard against his knuckles, and experimentally he let some Nether course through the material, spreading evenly as it seemed that the whole bed grew softer. His body sunk down slightly, as he poured alittle more of his energy into it, and seemingly adding the modicum of comfort to this otherwise hard bed.

”I prefer not to look through the window, seeing as how there is nothing worth seeing, except gloom. Grates on you after a while, and with all of the strutting assholes around here, grows boring when you have to be here. If anything, he was somewhat happy to have Smoke around, to break the monotony, and whatever else. A knock would come to the door, and the male they had sent away would return, with what looked like the food they asked for on a silver platter. Desolate eyes would look up to Sean, though they did not really bring any sort of pity from the Titan.

”Thank you.” Sean said running fingers through his hair, and not even causing him to flinch. He would leave the cart that the food was wheeled on in the room. It was reminiscent to a simple hotel cart, with the food steaming fresh. "Well Sam, we have our food.” Sean said with a certain amount of cheer as the servant would take their leave as quiet as they came in.

by **Samify** September 27th 2013, 1:14 am

Sam's vision shifted as he heard the door open, the servant that was in before had returned with a tray with some food on top of it, the food that they had asked for minutes earlier. The man looked up to Sean for approval, he had moved over to the tray by now, he said thank you ran his hand through the servants hair, this made Sam shudder slightly as he thought it was a very odd thing to do, but they both watched the man leave the same way he came in. Sam was staring at the plate that was just across from the room, the pepperoni pizza looked delicious and the smell was even better, smoke lifted off of it showing him that it was at least warm.

Without wasting any time, Sam vanished off of the bed in a cloud of black smog and reappeared by the tray, he leaned down and smelled the fresh cheese, tomato and pepperoni sizzling on the doughy base as he lifted it up and returned to sitting on the side of the bed. He turned his head to Sean before saying "Apologize if that startled you Sean, I've been told that when I poof around it tends to make people jump, but it makes everything so much easier I just cant help myself sometimes" Sam turned back to more important matters, the pizza that laid on his plate. It had already been sliced for him, so he lifted up a slice and watched as a strand of cheese tried to hang on for dear life, but eventually fell off, he slid the slice into his mouth and took a bite... it was delicious in so many more ways than he had ever experienced pizza before.

by **Arcana** September 27th 2013, 1:58 am

Part of Sean wondered who had hit the young man in the first place, but then again it was not likely that it mattered, seeing as he wouldn’t tell Sean who it was anyway. What perhaps caught his attention, and slightly surprised him even more was Sam’s sudden poofing trick that ended up with him next to the cart, and nomming on some of the pizza. He however found himself intrigued more than anything else, and that could be taken as a bad thing when dealing with someone like Sean. ”No, its fine.” Sean said with a grin, as he grabbed one of the utensils and dug into the food placed before him, which was warm and rather cheesy once he took a huge bite out of it. He could also taste the smallest hint of Nether, something that only made the food better than it normally would have been, and that only improved his mood exponentially. ”So, you like it?” Sean asked taking another bite from his own food, eyeing the black bottle of wine which sat there.

by **Samify** September 27th 2013, 7:58 pm

The smell of both of the foods mixing in the air was amazing and possible one of the nicest scents that he has ever smelled, perhaps it was the food or maybe it was the Nether just making it smell good, Sam did not care either way. He had already eaten half of his pizza in a few minutes, a lot quicker than when he usually ate pizza, he did not even feel very hungry when he began to eat it, there was just something about it that made him want to devour it as quickly as he could.

"Delicious... Possible the best pizza I've ever eaten, this Nether stuff works wonders in a variety of ways huh? I'm beginning to really like it" Sam only thought that Nether was something he could feel around him to make him feel better and stronger, but now it was even in the food that he ate and made it all delicious, his views on Nether was beginning to change, he started to think that it is one of the best energies to have around. Thoughts started to creep in about how much this energy would benefit everyone if it was around, he was already starting to think like a Titan; adapt Earth to be surrounded by this energy, force everyone to become a Titan in order to survive around it and everyone can prosper without any issues, the plan was for the greater good in the end, but others may not feel the same way.

by **Arcana** September 27th 2013, 8:26 pm

”You could say that, and there are some pretty amazing cooks here.” It was true that Nether could make anything better to someone with Titan blood, he was sure that Same had yet to know what true Euphoria was. Not that he would allow the new Titan to go anywhere close to his Ethereal Being, seeing as he found himself rather protective over that one. Though considering that he was only a half breed, his addiction to the energy would not be as dire as Sean’s was when he first met Ouroboros. Sean mused over this eating the rest of his still warm Italian dish, which was nice. The spices were right and they put the right amount of that dark energy in it that sent a jolt through his body, and made him hum contently. ”Believe me though, Nether isn't the only energy you will find yourself loving.” Sean added, letting the fork clatter against his plate, as he reclined against the headboard, and let his legs sprawl about.

by **Samify** September 27th 2013, 9:16 pm

Sean claimed that there was another energy that was even better to be around than Nether, needless to say it certainly peaked Sam's interest, although the first thing he thought about was how nice a pizza would taste with said energy laced into, but that wasn't very important right now. He finished off his pizza and gave out a relaxed sigh as he leaned back on the bed, his stomach was now fully and he wouldn't need to eat for the next few hours, Sam was almost quite sad at the fact that he wouldn't be able to experience a nice tasting pizza such as that for the first time again, and he found it extremely ironic that the most tasty pizza he has ever had came from such a dull and dreary place such as this.

Sam was happy to just lay back and have a nap after a meal that amazing, but he assumed Sean probably had a couple of things that he needed to show him. Without moving from his laying position he asked "So is there anything that you need to show me or are we just going to spend all day in here?" he stretched as he said it which caused his voice to become slightly rough.

by **Arcana** September 27th 2013, 10:11 pm

Sean exhaled contently, a small cloud of Nether being exhaled from his mouth along with that breath. Strange unlike normal humans, anything not used for nourishment simply managed to come out as small mists of Nether. It was perhaps a cleaner alternative, and one that was much preferable, and seemed to add a modicum of coolness if anything to his image. Sam would ask him about if there was anything else that Sean needed to show him, and for a moment the Titan was not sure what there was. it was then that a horrific, if not somewhat twisted thought entered Sean’s mind and he decided to run with it, considering that it was not likely he could be denied anyway. In an instant the Titan was a blur of movement, perhaps too fast for even the one that was still gorged in the food that he had just eaten. In an instant he was now straddling the perhaps now bewildered Demi –Titan, a quizzical look on his face. ”There’s a few things I can show you.” He noted wryly pressing one hand near each side of Sam’s head, keeping perfect eye contact.
