So this is awkward and I don't know how to explain this, but it seems like my sigil is still being passed around as a good one to use if you want an easy deal to bring people back from the dead.

I don't do that anymore. Obviously.

But I'm kind of in the middle of California now and I would appreciate it if someone could summon me back or something?

Thanks.

It'll be around the usual time. [The usual time being late in the afternoon and pushing into early evening, after she's done with her classes for the day.]

good luck dumbass the faculty can’t do shit to harm students I know my rights

[nor_iron_bars]

[In fairness, it's Jail. The fact that Hieke might want to legally purchase this food instead of stealing someone's wallet to cover the costs probably never occurred to her.]

[Exactly forty-three minutes later:]

beep beep, bitch- your ride's here
am i close or do i gotta try the other end of town?

[Accompanying the text is a snapshot of a street in LA, visibly taken from Jail's car. The cloud cover was decent today, she made better time than she thought.]

[inflictwounds]

It's not that big a deal!

[Yes it is.]

I'd say it was worth it, even if it wasn't ideal.

[inflictwounds]

I'll see you then.

Unless Jailbreak crashes.

[inflictwounds]

There's more than one way to skin a student.

[inflictwounds]

No, you're close. I think that looks familiar, anyways.

[A scant few minutes later, a not-very-impressive shadow falls over Jailbreak's car.

Hieke knocks on the window, like an asshole.]

[deuteranope]

oh yeah? and how many of those ways go over well with daybreak code of conduct

[inflictwounds]

You'd be surprised! Besides, I'm sure the worst torture for you is simply being in my presence.

[deuteranope]

damn dude that's a grim fucking observation
should we have a contest? who hates you more, yourself or me?

[lifeforced]

[Unless Jailbreak cra—]

HEY

Don't jinx it.

[inflictwounds]

Am I wrong?

[He's just. Going to ignore everything else.]

[inflictwounds]

It'll be fine!

[spelleton]

It is in fact a sizeable deal. It's a rare power even if you have the strength for it, you know. It's why so many people make deals with daemons or turn to necromancy.

So it was extremely difficult and probably almost fatal. Noted.

[deuteranope]

nah sounds like we all know what's up

[inflictwounds]

It might be rare for humans, but I've never claimed to play by human rules.

It wasn't that bad.

[Says the lying liar who lies.]

[inflictwounds]

Oh, good.

[spelleton]

Really? I've met a few daemons myself, and researched more. They vary in power, but not many are healers, and of those, I've met none on your level.

But there's many daemons in the world, I suppose. Perhaps I didn't meet the right ones?

I'm sure it wasn't and that's why you're being so evasive about any details. Worry not, I believe you.

[ LIKE HE'S NOT GOING TO PRESS BUT

HIEKE. ]

[deuteranope]

hey since I apparently gotta fucking spend time with you as punishment for heckling wanna grab me a taco too

[inflictwounds]

[He didn't ask to be called out like this? What has he ever done to deserve this?

He's distinctly embarrassed and uncomfortable, but he's not going to say as much. Because he's a moron.]

There's tons of daemons, and all of them are different. I'm sure there's plenty of powerful healers out there.

And... Well, thanks for believing me.

[inflictwounds]

No.

[deuteranope]

bitch
this is why I hate you

[inflictwounds]

I'll just have to live with that.

[deuteranope]

boooo you suck

[inflictwounds]

Not the first time I've heard that.
