Simwe Institute

[meinwaifu]

[As a demon who really only needed an hour of sleep per night, Mephisto spent plenty of time wandering the halls of his workplace. Though he rarely did so as himself -- it was far easier to get around while taking on the form of a small bug, or even a mouse. But he didn't explore too far... at least, not yet. He still needs to learn more of this world's magic first before he does anything to risk losing such a prime location for his research.]

[But when he sees an unfamiliar face walking down a restricted hallway... well, he can't simply ignore him, right? But for as much as it was certainly a face he's never seen around the institute proper, there was something oddly familiar about it...]

[He debates what to do for only a few moments, whether to let the man escape and follow him outside, or confront him here... or he could mess with him. Actually, that sounds like more fun.]

[Which basically means that as Duo starts to walk towards a door, he's going to find the hallway has suddenly stretched, putting him nearly 20 feet away from the door just as he was about to pull it open! ...or at least, that's what it will seem like. In reality, he's just been quickly teleported backwards in the same moment he blinked, with only a little puff of smoke around him to hint that something must have happened.]

Altar of Volkra

[meinwaifu]

[It was unusual enough for Mephisto to visit Wyver, but he didn't think he'd find himself seeing the Altar of Volkra again so soon. But he's not here with a partner this time. Really, he's not sure what possessed him to come up here... nostalgia, perhaps? Or was this simply easier than facing Jae-ha's cold, sleeping body within the stasis pods up on the station?]

[He really has grown soft, hasn't he? Strange to think that all those years on Assiah weren't enough to warm that cold heart of his, but one little apolcalypse later, and suddenly he's having feelings.]]

[It wasn't exactly safe for him to be here either. Though he didn't exactly have a reputation, his usual choice of fashion made him a obvious Olympian. And so for now, he's opted to wear a black cloak over himself, the hood even up and obscuring his face. As such-- when he hears one of the priests coming up behind him, there's no real way of telling who he is. But then, he doesn't know who the "priest" is going to be either...]
