Who: Mephisto, Mary, Ariel and Ikuko What: Some really weird sort of family get-together. Where: Mary's apartment When: Tuesday Warnings: Sweary demon, antiquated sweary angel, over-exuberant nephilim, overtly friendly virgin mother. So basically no.
Mephisto had been told about Ariel's issues regarding the relationship between himself and Mary, and while he really couldn't care less about what Ariel thought of himself or his relations with the reborn mother of Jesus, he was still somewhat looking forward to meeting him again. They both, for what it was worth, hadn't seen each other since large changes of status on both sides had occurred. He had been fumbling rather gracefully in the kitchen, helping Mary prepare ice cream and cookies in preparation for the arrival of the newly-born angel and his lover, and once Mary shooed him out of the kitchen for being more of a nuisance than a help, he went to go make himself more useful for his own purposes. He had been working on trying to implement a new way of at least letting his eyes seem more natural in look, without the use of sunglasses, which had become a useful tool in masking it, while not completely disguising his clearly unnatural pure-white eyes.
It was Ikuko who hopped up the stairs to the apartment first, excited to meet Mary and see Mephisto as he'd become. She had no predisposed opinions of Mephisto other than what she'd made for herself when Mephisto and Raziel were still in the singular, so she wasn't really in any sort of wary state or even remotely worried. She'd already scolded Ariel for worrying too much, in fact, telling him that until given a clear REASON for worrying, that he oughtn't. "Thanks for bringing me with, Ari," she stated brightly, "it's really nice of you to let me meet this Mary you've told me so much about!"
