10: Shedding skin is easier than most people suspect.

[scaresplants]

Who: Anthony J. Crowley and YOU.
Where: Hanging on a tree in the park
When: All day, man.
Style: Any you want!
Status: OPEN LIKE YOUR HEART TO TEMPTATION i mean what

[So, Vatheonites and new arrivals, you might be wandering around the park, exploring all it has to offer, when you might come across a tree in the middle of the clearing. For some reason, this area is quiet- no birds sing, no squirrels chatter. The tree just stands there, looking rather ordinary.]




[And hanging from a branch of this tree is something long and vivid green. A small snake. Which is odd, because if you've been in Vatheon before, you probably haven't seen any snakes around here.]

[It just sits there, red tongue flicking out lazily every so often. Approach it? Try to pet it? Talk to it? See what happens. Crowley won't bite...if you don't make him angry, that is.]

[ooc: Anthony J. Crowley is in his snake form and hanging out in the park, basically, because he is the Serpent of Eden and he does what he wants. And yes, he can speak. Just not yet, because scaring you all is a much better use of his time than just acting dumb. People who can detect demonic powers and such will be able to tell that he isn't just an ordinary snake.

[But he always has so much fun with these conversations 8D

He lights up a cigarette, letting that take his attention for a moment.]

You know....you make for a really cute snake~

[scaresplants]

[Okay, that's it. He will not be called cute. Not by Johnny. He turns and gives Johnny a very deadpan look, before:]

I'm not cute.

[not_heavens_adam]

[His face brightens and he smiles.]

So you can talk.

And you are~ I don't think I've ever seen such a good looking snake.

[scaresplants]

Yesssssssss, of coursssse I can, you moron.

[He lets out a little "hmmph", burying his nose into the coils of his tail.]

Really? You're having a go at me even now?

[not_heavens_adam]

Why not~? You're still you.

[He smirks.]

So, Snake of Eden, waiting for an Eve to come along or are you just enjoying the sunlight?

[scaresplants]

Yes, but I'm a snake now. Besssssssstiality is frowned on in most cultures.

[A huff.] Just looking for people to observe, that's all. Besides, there aren't any apples here to tempt people with, ssssso no going with that plan.

[not_heavens_adam]

I wouldn't sleep with a snake, but that doesn't stop me from complimenting one~

Hnn~ Observation...you have a lot of patience.

[scaresplants]

Good. Looks like you do have a few morals up your sleeves.

I've been around for over five thousand years, patience is sort of necessary for that.

[not_heavens_adam]

I'm a 16th century guy~ I still have some morals lying around.

Heh~ I'd imagine so. Must get boring after a while.

[scaresplants]

16th century, huh? That wasn't a bad century. Now don't get me started on the fifteenth...

Not at all. I keep myself occupied.

[not_heavens_adam]

Aaahh~ Now I'm curious~

[scaresplants]

About what, the fifteenth century or how I keep myself occupied?

[not_heavens_adam]

Both~

FFFFFF just checked by copy it's the 14th not teh 15th I CAN STILL WORK WITH THIS

[scaresplants]

The fifteenth century was incredibly boring. But what led up to the fifteenth century was the fourteenth which... [He pauses, giving a shudder.] Which is one that I have wiped out of memory and never hope to experience again. So, I like to say that the fifteenth is the worst, when I really know the truth.

How I keep myself occupied? Tempting people. It's my job. Can't exactly abandon that, now can I?

I...was wondering. |'D Because I've read that far! I thought I might've just been confused >>;

[not_heavens_adam]

Aaah~? Really? I only ever had history books and it never seemed all that bad too me. Of course that's two-hundred years difference from when I heard about it....history was very biased~

And, no, I suppose not~ See? That's what I find fascinating.

/facepalms I AM THE WORST GO PLAYER FORGIVE ME

[scaresplants]

It really was. I wanted to kick all the rats into the sea and such but my superiors wouldn't let me because "plague is good for creating evil" or something. Idiots.

What's fascinating? My job?

IT'S OKAY. I still love you <3

[not_heavens_adam]

Don't know about evil, but it certainly thinned out the population..and made my immune system stronger as a later generation, so thank you for letting the plague commence~

Mmmhm~ Just as long as you stay away from Rayfell.

/sobsssss

[scaresplants]

Eh, don't thank me for that. I wasn't glad to be assigned to that.

Rayfell? What, what will I do to her?

/snugs

[not_heavens_adam]

Tempt her, of course~

She is eve...of hell's variety, anyway.

She doesn't need any help falling into temptation.

[scaresplants]

Eve? Of Downstairs? Well, then, guess I don't need to work on her, like you said.

I'm big into large-scale temptations, anyways.

[not_heavens_adam]

Oh~

What kinds of things~?
