Note: Aim thread. Sorry if the formatting isn't what you're used to.
[20:03] chaosismycrack: *Cassie was getting fed up with Leo being holed up in his lab so she had decided to bug him into being sociable. Checking Shawn wasn't too near she went to the door and knocked* Hey! It's your favourite demon, come out or I'm coming in.
[20:04] xelikzap: Leo stood in his lab, looking up at the stairwell and smiling at the closed door. Of course she would, it was Cassie after all. "I have work to do Cassie! Go bug Shawn into being social!"
[20:06] chaosismycrack: "Shawn is already social, it's you who is being antisocial.... which sounds wrong.... but still." She complained a she opened the door and walked in.
[20:09] xelikzap: "Watch your step." He said, without looking up from what he was working on. "The fourth step from the bottom is a little broken." Explosive chemicals tended to do that. As soon as the stairs ended, the books and papers began. There were stacks of books and piles of paper throughout the lab, wherever wasn't needed for actual lab work. Some had sticky notes posted throughout them, like demented hedgehogs out for blood.
[20:11] chaosismycrack: Her reaction to that was to jump from the fifth step to the floor, skipping the broken step and the ones below it. "You seriously spend too much time down here from the looks of it" She commented as she looked around and worked her way over towards him. "Come on, a little break? I came all the way here to see you boys. Pleeeeeease" Cassie pleaded complete with cute voice.
[20:14] xelikzap: "You know that voice never worked on me." He said, not bothering to contain his smile as he made some notes in what looked like a leather bound journal. "And you see me all the time. You came out here to see Italy." Leo didn't want to admit that he really did spent way too much time down here. There were dirty dished and half full glasses throughout the lab, and a small cot that had no less than ten books upon it. He hadn't slept in it in a long while.
[20:17] chaosismycrack: "That's because you're a freak." She said sulkily, picking things up and putting them down again. "I am going to have to start employing other tactics to make you get out of here if you don't give in soon, and I play dirty"
[20:20] xelikzap: "Mhm." Leo said, taking what looked to be a seed into the center of the lab. The only area that seemed completely clear. He held it in his clenched fist for a bit, watching as a deep forest green light escaped whenever it could. Then, he threw it on the ground expectantly. Cussing when nothing in particular happened.
[20:22] chaosismycrack: Cassie did watch in silence for those few seconds, waiting to see what would happen, not that she had a clue what was meant to happen, but when nothing did come from it she crossed her arms and spoke again. "Are you even listening to me?"
[20:25] xelikzap: "Yes yes." Leo said, writing something in the journal and then looking around the chaos that was his lab. "You play dirty." He found what he was looking for, a bottle of soil. He picked up the seed once again, and poured some dirt where it had been. "Shawn." He said, in a normal tone of voice, as if his brother was standing right next to him. "I need your help." He appeared almost instantly behind Cassie.
[20:29] chaosismycrack: "Typical man. Only here the bit about being dirty" She muttered, amused, but slightly miffed since he obviously wasn't paying proper attention to her. She was about to start up at him again when Shawn was called and appeared, making her jump. "Geez, you need a bell." Cassie sulked, taking a couple of steps away from Shawn and towards the experiment. "You're not getting rid of me that easily! Leo you need to stop being boring!"
[20:37] xelikzap: "Of course." Leo said, slipping her a sly smile and a wink. He laughed heavily at the bell comment. Although, Shawn did not seem as amused. It had been a previous topic of conversation. "I'm not being boring," He said, repeating the process with the seed, but this time throwing it into the dirt pile. "This is interesting." As soon as he said that, a vine started rapidly emerging from the pile, wrapping itself around Cassie's legs and climbing upward. Shawn's eyes grew wide, looking between his brother and Cassie. He was not allowed to interfere with experiments.
[20:41] chaosismycrack: "I swear if dirty is the only way to get a reaction I am quite prepared to strip to make you leave this-" She didn't finish her threat (if you could call it a threat) before the vine started growing and she stopped, staring at the plant wrapping around her. "Get. It. Off. Me" She said to both of them. "This is not the sort of situation I want to be tied up in.Bedroom? Yes. Lab? No." Yes, even scared she had to joke.
[20:47] xelikzap: Leo walked up to her calmly, touching the vines that were quickly wrapping themselves around her chest. There was a deep green glow and they disappeared as quickly as they had come into existence, withering away to ash. "Do understand now, that I'm not trying to get rid of you? It's dangerous down here." The vines had been tight, and a few places looked as if they might bruise. Demons had accelerated healing though, if Leo remembered correctly. "Now, why don't you take Shawn and go somewhere a bit more fun?" He tried to keep the annoyance out of his voice and face, instead going to write down the results of his interrupted experiment.
[20:50] chaosismycrack: She looked a lot more relaxed once the vines were gone, although she did take a couple of steps away from the dirt now. "I wouldn't have had to come down here if you'd come out!" She argued, resisting the urge to rub at the spots where she would probably bruise. Well they were going to be hard to explain in public.
[20:58] xelikzap: "Lets go Cassie." Shawn said, looking nervous. His eyes were large and rounded. Even he hadn't spent much time in this lab. "I'll take you somewhere really fun." He had the sound of urgency in his voice, like a panicking child trying to lie to his parents.
[21:01] chaosismycrack: The problem with the demon was that she really didn't have enough fear. "Why are you so nervous?"
[21:07] xelikzap: The footsteps were close enough now that even Cassie would be able to hear them. "BOY!" Came a voice from upstairs. There was fear in Shawn's eyes as he phased upstairs. And angry words that one couldn't quite make out too clearly.
[21:09] chaosismycrack: "Boy?" She repeated with disdain, waiting to see what was going on, but a little worried by that look of fear Shawn had before disappearing.
[21:13] xelikzap: Leo shrugged, a sad look in his eyes. "He thinks elementals aren't worth naming". Normally, Leo would have gone upstairs and attempted to convince Julius to leave his brother alone. But his grandfather was adamant about Leo's new training regiment, and was particularly nasty if anyone interrupted it.
[21:15] chaosismycrack: "I really don't like him already and we haven't even met." She muttered. "I wonder how many times I can call Shawn his name while the old man is around?"
[21:20] xelikzap: The angry words had gotten louder at some point. "Boy! What did I tell you about interrupting my grandson while he's working?" Julius was angry, but not quite yelling.
[21:21] xelikzap: "Don't you interrupt me!" Came the same voice, in response to something quiet Shawn had said.
[21:24] chaosismycrack: "Wow, he needs some lessons in manners. I should really take responsibility for this,right?" She shrugged and headed for the stairs, and Julius. "Actually it was me who was trying to get Leo to take a break." She said to the old man, with a sweet smile. "Shawn was trying to convince me to let him keep working."
[21:30] xelikzap: "You really shouldn't be down there." Julius said sweetly, turning to smile at her and catching sight of the red marks the vines had left behind. "As you've probably already figured out, it can be quite dangerous." He took a step away from Shawn and towards Cassie. "Hello, I''m Julius Dorian, Leo's great grandfather." He extended a hand towards her.
[21:33] chaosismycrack: "I like danger." She replied with a shrug, taking the hand to shake. "Cassie Blake" Her accent VERY English to go along with her sickly sweet tone. Cassie turned to Shawn and leant in to kiss him on the cheek. "Sorry I got you in trouble there."
[21:34] xelikzap: Julius raised an eyebrow at her kiss, looking amused as Shawn blushed and phased out completely. "Go get lunch started boy." He said to the air in general, like Leo had a habit of doing. "It's nice to meet you Cassie. Are you a friend of Leo's from school?"
[21:39] chaosismycrack: "Shawn" She said automatically. "His name is Shawn." Then she tried that speaking to the air thing too. "I'll come help you in a second Shawn." Aaand back to talking to Julius again. "Nice to meet you finally too. Yes, I'm a friend of theirs from school. Chaos demon."
[21:44] xelikzap: He merely smiled at himself at her corrections, and her eagerness to help the elemental. "Chaos demon huh? That certainly explains quite a lot about your friendship with Leo. That boy certainly likes his explosives." He said it fondly, like a proud father might brag about his son.
[21:47] chaosismycrack: "I wouldn't know, he doesn't tend to share the explosives with me. Probably for the best of the school, that's how I got kicked out of my last one." She laughed softly. "This holiday with Shawn is probably good for me in the eyes of some people, calming influence."
[21:52] xelikzap: "Smart man, my grandson. Although, I'll keep you in mind in case I ever need a building destroyed." He smiled as he sat down in the living room in an expensive looking chair. He mused at the "calming" aspect of the elemental. That boy was nothing but trouble in his opinion. "Please, have a seat. Can I get you a drink?" It was Europe after all, and Julius didn't care much for laws either way.
[21:54] chaosismycrack: "Biodad would probably like the idea of me wrecking buildings. He thinks I'm too well behaved." Cassie said, rolling her eyes at that thought. "No thanks, I should probably be heading for the kitchen soon to help Shawn."
[21:58] xelikzap: "Suit yourself." Julius said with a smile. Frankly, he couldn't see why that elemental was worth the trouble. He could handle it by himself fine.
[22:00] chaosismycrack: "He's already been such a sweetie on this trip. I can't let him be my slave or something." She laughed, showing that was a stupid idea. "It was good to speak to you though. Very.... enlightening...."
[22:03] xelikzap: "I'm glad I taught the boy some respect." If he'd been anything but kind, Shawn might not have lived to regret it. "It was a pleasure speaking to you as well Cassie. I hope the rest of your trip goes well." Silly girl, thinking she could 'save' Shawn from some undetermined fate.
[22:05] chaosismycrack: "Thank you, and don't work Leo too hard. He needs some time off." She said with a smile before wandering off to find Shawn.
[22:07] xelikzap: "Any work Leo's doing, is of his own volition."
[22:07] chaosismycrack: His last remark was just met with a raising of her hand.
