[ There is some time before he appears again. ]

Yes he's here.

[ Which means that Lucifer is going to lose it at any point. Istredd sighs and takes a moment to sit, rubbing at his eyes. They're all covered in dirt so at this point it's impossible to be clean. He thinks through what he saw in the Horizon, and the fact that he obviously went there looking for Lucifer. Who intentionally was not there, but changed it in case he did go.

Privately, to himself, he smiles. ]

You made something of your own.

[ The falls being lava instead of water. A small change to what God created, but still a change. ]

[thedevilwhorose]

[don't make a big deal out of it jeez]

I did.

[magicalarchaeologist]

[ He will always make a big deal of it. ]

Did you name the snake yet?

[thedevilwhorose]

[The delay draws on for what is a barely-there response.]

No.

[Yes.

If Istredd tries to name it, it will not respond. Although to be fair at the moment it isn't responding to anything, much as Lucifer himself.]

[magicalarchaeologist]

Eating snakes in here.

Should I feel guilty?

[ He's joking. ]

[thedevilwhorose]

Yes.

Super guilty.

[ Istredd laughs for the first time since this all started and it sounds so strange to his ears. It echoes in a way he wasn't prepared for and he goes serious again right after. ]

[magicalarchaeologist]

FUCK THESE PEOPLE.

[ See, frustrated. ]

[thedevilwhorose]

I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. It's impossible to put down.

[magicalarchaeologist]

[ Istredd's unsure if it's actually funny or if he's just slipping into delirium. ]

Did you know knights are known for wearing dishware? That's why they call it plate armor.

[ Definitely delirious. ]

[thedevilwhorose]

[that's the problem with puns]

Go find yourself another snake to eat, man.

[magicalarchaeologist]

Not my turn.

[ Rationing and all. But he ends up passing out instead of saying more. Apparently bad jokes lull him into some form of unconsciousness. ]

[He might appreciate the bond a lot more after all this. The puzzle at figuring out what was said without making Istredd completely repeat himself is the worse.]

Wrong how?

[magicalarchaeologist]

[ He focuses very hard and blocks out what he can of the noise that distracts. ]

Drugged. Paranoid, aggressive. Growing fungus. Bad.
