[Event]

[azuremagma]

If you're in Domino, there's a man sitting on a bench downtown or in the park, resting his head in his hands. He looks. Strained? Upset? Tired? He also looks... Familiar? He could be mistaken for the now older Geo, if Geo shaved his stupid beard and let his hair go free. If approached by someone who is familiar with the blue flame prince, he'll give a small grin and motion to the empty seat next to him.

He can also be found in front of the now probably now rented out building he had called his office/home looking similarly distressed or smoking a cigarette around the police station, if you're keen on those areas as well.

I agree.

If you feel you can't get along, it might be best to just agree that you dislike each other and move on.
No amount of fighting is going to change anything, nor make either of you feel any better.

[Desdemona glowers at Cyril, then she turns her glare on Juudai for a few seconds. On some level, she knows she's being childish, but that doesn't necessarily mean she can stop it. She is, after all, a dragon. And no matter how nice they are, dragons are pretty prideful creatures.

After a few seconds, the vines unwrap from her arms and slink back into the ground. She lets out a grunt of assent and says something through almost definitely grinding teeth.]

"Don't throw around Isabel's name that casually."

[She spins on her heel and starts to walk away before she can decide to do something stupid anyway.]

[azuremagma]

He opens his mouth to look like he's going to yell at her or throw a fireball, but he just sort of deflates and looks back at Juudai.

"Thank ya."

*Juudai stays silent for a while watching Desdemona leave, before turning to look at Cyril.*

I was just defusing the situation. These kinds of things are pretty much my job to deal with.
I can understand Desdemona's anger, but a scene didn't need to be made.

Thanks for backing down.

*He then leans back on the bench, placing his hands behind his head.*

Haven't seen you around for a while.

[azuremagma]

"Yeah, I mean. I probably deserve ta be pummeled, but, not 'ere." He sighs, then waves a hand.

"Yeah, I uh. Left ta fight the numbers, an' it kinda got a lil' outta hand."

[i_like_red]

The Numbers? I see.
I guess that couldn't be helped. It's easy for stuff like that to get out of hand.

[azuremagma]

He opens his mouth, closes it. Figures Juudai's got enough on his plate.

"Yeah. Gone fer... Much longer than I wanted ta be. Not like I was 'spectin' e'rtyin' ta be the same when I got back, but it's still kinda jarrin'."

[i_like_red]

Heh, I guess so. Hopefully you'll get your bearings back soon enough.

[azuremagma]

"...Pretty poorly, if I'm gonna be honest. Didn't go well, an' me nearly dyin' was why I was gone fer so long."

[i_like_red]

Sounds like you had it pretty rough, huh.

So what are you planning to do now you're back?

[azuremagma]

"A lil', yeah." He shrugs.

"No clue. Maybe sign up for people who're 'elping with the spirits, find some o' the numbers that're still floatin' 'round."

[i_like_red]

Well, my organization is concentrating on both of those, though at the moment we're in the middle of a big merge with the Arcadia Movement to take on the responsibility of also guiding people with powers, but you're welcome to join us.

Thooough... *He thinks.* ... Desdemona is actually one of my employees, though she's concentrating more on teaching about spirits at the Island Duel Academy at the moment, but could be a problem...

[azuremagma]

"Iunno. That'd prolly be a huge issue, 'less ya can convince 'er I dun need ta be killed. I'll find somethin' else ta do, dun worry. Ya dun need ta stress that we're gonna be constantly killin' each other all the time."

[i_like_red]

Heh, I guess that does make sense. I doubt there would be any way to convince her sadly.

[azuremagma]

"I'll maybe try an' talk ta 'er online a bit. When I left we 'ad some crazy bad blood goin', so. Maybe we'll figure somethin' out an' I'll get back ta ya."

[i_like_red]

Alright then. It's good that you want to try and make amends with her. Just try not to push too far it if she's not interested.
I know how stubborn dragons can be.
