[Immediately post-Wonder Quartet]

[Private Message to Reiji:]
I protected your Keystone, like you wanted. You can consider this the end of our arrangement.

[Private Message to Hibiki:]
Hey. I'm gonna do my own thing from here on out. Take care of yourself, okay?

[Event:]
[Alexandra is immediately approaching a few people after the climax of the Wonder Quartet and Yuya's duel with Reiji. Top of that list includes Yuya, Yuma and Labrys. Before, in between or after she's spoken to those people, she's open to be approached by anybody else who was present in the Quartet.]

... I do agree that Tartarus more dangerous than the other demons I've faced. Perhaps due to the lack of fear against me, but also by the fact that they had plans and protection.

Some demons can be manipulative. Perhaps smarter than the usual ones, but it is always going to be based upon their primal needs.

Tartarus didn't need to specifically target you, nor did he did, as I said before, need to try to make a deal with you to have you act of your own accord.

Well, it was also weird that it had allies that were willing to face anyone in place of it, right? And try to open the way?

Some demons can work together, but loyalties are usually not so tightly wound. Whatever Tartarus is, it's got a pretty unusually high amount of influence.

More than manipulation. Or influence. Tartarus' forces. Loyal to the death. Willing to sacrifice themselves. Hierarchy unlike any other. Ever observed among their species.

[Another Barian is right behind Alex.]

*the others are far less surprised-- though Lancea totally has a look on her face that Cestus succeeded in legitimately surprising Alex*

Hello, Cestus.

Are you doing alright, today?
spectrecestus: Not eavesdropping. I'm pretty sure you invited me here. (Watching.)

[personal profile] spectrecestus 2017-11-30 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Fine.

Heard talking. Came to see.

Also heard commotion earlier. In the direction of the city.

Yes. An attack happened. Invaders from another world.

*... pauses, since she knows that passed through Failnaught's mind before with his reaction* Doesn't seem to be related to those of Ettosyleit or the Astrals. But they're still a threat.

Skadi.

Still out there. Still searching. Trying to find a way to open a door. Bring her master to this world.

Will use anything. Anything. To advance that goal. Invaders from another world. Must use some method to move across worlds. Some technology. Or magic.

Such things can be taken. Tuned. Changed. Method to allow a human or monster to move from one world to another. Can be changed. To allow a demon to move from Warp. To Earth.

Until Skadi and Tartarus are dead. Any threat is related to them. Because they will use any threat to advance their goals. Especially this one.
spectrecestus: Not staring at you. Staring through you. (Wide open.)

[Cestus looks at Alex. Then stares at her. Very closely.

She's getting pretty close.]

While that's true, at the moment, I detected no signs of their influence upon those who attacked.

*putting a hand onto Alexandra's shoulder, squeezing a little in an attempt to comfort, but also saying that she's here, don't worry.*

Cestus. Please meet Alexandra Grant. She was involved in our attempt to save what we could of our world.

Is she the one that struck me with lightning?

[personal profile] all_for_not 2017-11-30 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
I think that was Koyo, actually. It was part of the program we were both running, once the code was corrected.

*... well, he's at least correcting it*

But no, she was not a part of... the move itself. She had a more pressing concern to help with on our parts.

She was a part of stopping Caduceus' intentions, and helping Labrys, Lancea, and Chakram.
spectrecestus: Not to you. To the whispers. You were kind of boring. (Listening.)

[personal profile] spectrecestus 2017-11-30 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Ah.

...

Thank you.
spectrecestus: Not staring at you. Staring through you. (Wide open.)

[personal profile] spectrecestus 2017-11-30 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[And then Cestus gets real close.]

Don't. Make. Any. More. Deals. With. Them.

[Hhhhooow the heck did she know about that.]

Would be bad. For everybody.

[personal profile] tachyonparticle 2017-11-30 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
We would certainly hope so. *keeping her hand on Alex's shoulder though.*

Cestus, you shouldn't lean in at people like that.
spectrecestus: Not to you. To the whispers. You were kind of boring. (Listening.)

[personal profile] spectrecestus 2017-11-30 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
...

[Cestus leans back.]

Who are the invaders.

They're called "Academia". From what I can tell, they specialize in Fusion tactics.

Apparently, they're from another version of the Earth we are on now. They attacked, causing the commotion you heard before. They feel that they're doing this for a greater good. That they'll save everything, but what everything is, is another question in itself.

*she shakes her head* But that's only in so far as I've been informed about this.
spectrecestus: Don't worry. It's not anything bad. And even if it is, we'll be long gone before we realize how bad it was. (Planning.)

[personal profile] spectrecestus 2017-11-30 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Hmph.

Attacking for greater good. Foolish. Logically unsound.

[Well, for inherently defensive beings like the Barians, that concept would be hard to swallow, wouldn't it.]

Will help. If they're using dimensional travel. To attack others. Skadi could eventually become involved. Must stop them before that.
