==Gods, Spirits and the Meaning of Life==
Astra: ... I'm tempted to have Cassidy and Liz meet up, with her face and hair and clothes covered in gore and dead flesh.

Dakkareth: Liz already got the spell-implosion and possibly now fire anima. Amusing image to have them meet like that. "Oh dear. Fire isn't fun, but I wouldn't want to switch with you." 

Cassidy: "Well, at least I killed a few more zombies like that."

Cassidy: "Not too pleased what happened beforehand, but all and all, better me against the zombies..."

Liz: "That's ... good, I guess. Not really liking what they leave behind, though." 

Cassidy: "Better than the blood of our friends."

Astra: (ironic, she would have had blood of her allies on her; she got hit in the face with blood)

Liz: "Oh. Yes. Better than that." 

Liz: "I suppose I wouldn't hesitate if the situation was like that, but ... I don't know, maybe I have a weak stomach or something." 

Liz: "One more reason to cleanse them all, with fire preferably?" 

Cassidy: "No, I just have a really strong one. :D"

Cassidy: "Robert almost vomited when we found one back in Henderson."

Liz: "It bugs me, too. I mean, I'm not afraid of them, but somehow, somehow the smell just gets to me." 

Cassidy: "They scare me, but honestly, I just... have to suck it up and fight."

Cassidy: "I'm more frightened of fur.  :S"

Liz: "Yeah. No way around our responsibility. But from now on I'll have nose plugs prepared for the next time." 

Liz: "Fur? Why fur?" 

Cassidy: "... You know how Sui Mae was crazy?"

Cassidy: "And trying to kill you?"

Cassidy: "Well, guess what."

Liz: "Yeah? Not fun, that." 

Cassidy: "He tried /crushing/ me in his arms.  D:"

Liz: "Ouch. That must have been a nasty surprise." 

Cassidy: "Not... as much as throttling one of the wolves.  :S"

Cassidy: "And killing several before trying to kill me."

Cassidy: "I did shake him out of it..."

Cassidy: "My brother would be sympathetic to him, at least."

Cassidy: "I kicked him in the... um..."

Cassidy: "*cough*"

Liz: ":eek: Shit, really? And they were putting all their hopes into him as well. That craziness thing must have hit him hard." 

Cassidy: "They still do."

Cassidy: "And are a little unsettled that I smacked him and told him to stop mourning."

Liz: "Sui Mae was pretty out of it as well and she almost killed Darius, but at least no one actually died." 

Liz: "Oh, there? Did it work ?"

Cassidy: "That did, but it that was after I kicked him as hard as I could, screaming for him to snap out of it."

Liz: (insert an amused eyebrow raise there) 

Cassidy: "I sort of have done it to my little brother before too."

Liz: "Not the nicest move, but in desperation who judges the means?" 

Cassidy: "Yeah..."

Cassidy: "It's sort of funny though.  It made me miss Nathan."

Liz: "Me and my sister, we didn't fight much. Not like that anyway. And after her accident I had this irrational fear that if I brought her along to the dojo she'd get hurt again." 

Liz: "Where's he now? I take it he doesn't live in Las Vegas?" 

Cassidy: "Nah, I'm not a local here.  I came about two years ago."

Cassidy: "Nate would be about 18 by now."

Liz: "Funny that, Julia just turned 18 as well. We're a little less apart, I guess." 

Liz: "So, where do you come from?" 

Cassidy: "I'm actually a Southern girl.  I don't wanna give away where, though." 

Cassidy: "I worked on the drawl so that no one figures it out."

Liz: "Heh. I probably wouldn't anyway. Not without some more time spent here anyway." 

Cassidy: "Heh."

Cassidy: "Well, Nathan was a little snot sometimes, but everyone liked him.  XD"

Liz: "Some people have all the luck. Not that I always was a saint, and yet here I am, with gods and cosmic forces liking me enough to make me all shiny." 

Liz: "So I guess, maybe I'm one of them. :p" 

Liz: "It might just be my weird luck though. Who knows? Well, I *want* to know but I'm not really sure who to ask ..." 

Cassidy: "I was the stubborn one of the family."

Cassidy: "I guess it's just we had the potential of being heroes?"

Liz: "Or maybe that. That is a more comforting thought." 

Cassidy: "Um...."

Cassidy: "I met one of the gods at fault?  :D"

Liz: "So did Darius apparently. And some other cosmic bigwigs as well. Of course, assholes that those seemed to be I can understand he didn't ask them many question." 

Liz: "I just got a mean old spirit of fear." 

Liz: "Working for that eeeeevil demon guy as well. He probably wouldn't have been very helpful and we were in something of a hurry anyway." 

Liz: "So, a honest to god, um, god? What did he say?" 

Cassidy: "... I can't remember."

Cassidy: "I was sort of in a weird state of mind."

Liz: "Oh. :(" 

Liz: "But yeah, that spirit layer realm world thingie does weird things to your mind." 

Cassidy: "O_< that is all I'll say."

Cassidy: "Oh Sun, tell me about it.  D:"

Cassidy: "I was in fucking Greek goddess clothes."

Liz: "Apparently I spent some time as a big glowy set of scales and I talked all formal and courtroom-like." 

Cassidy: "... You?"

Cassidy: "... pffffttt.... XD"

Liz: "Yeah. As I said, weird things. At least sometime during that semi-blackout I knocked Brown on his ass. That's something positive about the whole embodying abstract symbols thing, at least." 

Liz: "Palmer was a pair of giant hands when I first saw him over there. He changed back rather quickly, so I'm not sure how strange he was. Johnny just called everyone 'my lord' and 'my lady' even when he remembered to speak English." 

Cassidy: "Um... He called me Holy One."

Liz: "Strangely enough I was 'my lord' to him. Considering the stuff I must have said, I won't hold it against him, though :p." 

Liz: " 'Holy One', that's nice. The next time we go on a quick spirit realm joyride we should bring a camera. That would be fun!" 

Liz: "I can just see half the internet scratching their heads about that." 

Cassidy: "Fuck no."

Liz: "Huh? Why not?" 

Cassidy: "I... I got too fucking unsettled in there."

Liz: "Well, we'd need a reliable way back and ... *shrug* Maybe not immediately. Eventually people have to know about this, though. We can't leave them in the dark about something like that. Just like with vampires and all the other stuff." 

Cassidy: "I heard prayers."

Cassidy: "And no one else can hear them."

Cassidy: "There's no one out there who hears."

Liz: "Prayers? Like voices talking to you?" 

Cassidy: "Yes.  And it wasn't just one."

Cassidy: "I heard all of them."

Cassidy: "Anyone in Vegas begging to a god."

Liz: "Wow. That's ... I'm not sure what that is. It would certainly creep me the hell out." 

Cassidy: "Here's the kicker, I got hit with them the moment I went in."

Liz: "Oh :s. I can see why you wouldn't want to return then. Must be harsh." 

Liz: "All those people asking for help. I mean, in my most grandiose moments I like to think that I'm meant to save the world. But having that responsibility dropped on you all in one piece? That must be hard." 

Cassidy: "I... ended up singing back, at least."

Cassidy: "I don't know if it worked."

Liz: "A bit of hope? Just knowing that someone's out there? I figure that would be nice, if it worked." 

Cassidy: "And inspiration.  :D"

Liz: "What is hope without inspiration anyway?" 

Liz: "Maybe that's what you're meant for." 

Cassidy: "Maybe."

Cassidy: "I... I think I have another purpose as well, but we'll see."
