Have you ever hunted anything in your life, dear new member Mnmosyne? Asks Lelantos. Mnemosyne shakes his head. Well, not to worry. The one we are going after is called Carvaggio, a real scumbag. A mob boss that now pretends living in the woods is soothing and not something absolutely fucking insane. He puts his bag down and opens it. Here, this is yours, says Lelantos with a crossbow in his hand and a smile on his face. What? I thought you’d be more excited. It’s a crossbow, he says as he pulls out a shotgun and closes down the bag. I mean… That’s not why I joined this cause. I’m simply tired of living this horrible life. I didn’t think we’d hunt people for sport. Lelantos starts laughing at what Mnemosyne just said. I understand. But, we need to be swift and effective. Mnemosyne quickly stops him. Pretty sure, Z said that we should be discrete. Lelantos slaps him on the back. Potato, potato. If you move fast, act fast, get it done fast, it is going to be discrete as hell. Besides, we’re not the only ones doing such a thing. Pretty sure when we were young we’d shoot each other with guns and roleplay wars and stuff. Man, you must have had a boring life until now, says Lelantos looking at Mnemosyne’s disgusted face.

Selene, is this really the place we have to find Mary at? Asks Dione. Yes. Now please, lighten up a bit. Let’s have some fun. Remember who you are doing this for and for what reason. Dione nods as Selene holds her head into her hands. Good. Have you brought anything with you? Asks Selene as she shakes her bag. Yes, says Dione as she pulls out a small revolver. You are an adorable idiot. This is supposed to be discrete, remember? Dione starts giggling. And I thought you were a bit of a wild one. Selene looks at her with a confused expression on her face. I am… But that doesn’t mean I’m a dumbass. Damn, I really ought to spend more time with you all. Cause after twenty thousand years, y’all don’t seem to know me that well, says Selene as she opens her bag and takes out a paint gun. Here, take this. It’s light and should be fun. Does quite the damage too. Who knows, they might just faint from the pain and we’ll get her that way. Now dear, let’s open this baby up and let’s follow her into the sewers. From shit she was born, into shit she’ll forever return and live. Let’s give that pedo what she truly deserves. By the way, how come you decided to join me? Asks Selene. Well, I didn’t want to be a third wheel…

Tethys, my dear, says Oceanus, let’s find this filth named Brutus. My horns ache for violence. She turns towards him. Well, darling, do I have the surprise for you. You’ll finally get to use these big, brawny, shiny, beautiful muscles. You’ll get your horns dirty and your release soon. I got you a match with Brutus. Oceanus with a big stupid grin on his face puts his arms on his shoulders. I see you are full on ready and excited just by the thought of it. My, my, what am I to do with you. Oceanus kneels down, puts his hands on Tethys’ shoulders and looks her in the eyes. My dear, we’ll bring this monster down, together. There’s no excuse for someone that takes those he doesn’t like and throws them in the ocean tied to rocks to lie there for thousands of years. And I promise you that after, you’ll have your release too. She looks down between his legs. Well, we still have quite a bit of time before the match and you seem ready and more than capable to fulfill that part right now. With a red face and the same grin on, he stands up. No, my dear. I must use this excitement in the fight. I must punish. I must crush him. And once I do, you’ll get yours. I promise. Now, where will this match be? She smiles. Here. They both start laughing.
