Atop the towers of steam

Rick popped back up, "SOMEONE ANSWER ME."

"Clearly he changed his race to that of the indigenous people here, Rick." Cyril said, he continued his conversation, "You see, the author wrote the book without any words containing the letter 'e'. When other authors translated this book to different languages, they also did it without using the letter 'e'. It's very impressive because this has a cohesive and kind of interesting plot. It's all very poetic in a way."

Emily leaned into Ama a bit, still reading, "Hello sweetie."

Zero turned very seriouse, "Because I won't let you, whatever they have done I'm sure can be made right."
Kabuto and Kobushi stood beside Cyril, still listening.

How could you stop me?" Asked Makoto. "And I don't think you can figure out how to repay this. They kidnapped my son!"

Amaterasu kissed Emily's neck. "Watcha readin?" 

Elucidia bashed Ryuzaki again

"GOD FUCKING DAMMIT."

Cyril was enjoying his audience, "You see, the original author's parents died in a war. The absence of the letter 'e' meant he could not write the French words for mother or father or parents. The absence of a word often signified an absence of something in his life. It's interesting to pick through books like this." Cyril called over to El, "Can we please not murder someone in somewhere as culturally important as this?"

"Les Miserables," Emily sighed, "You know, I've picked this up a few times and just never finished it. It's supposedly a very successful musical. Ever heard of it?"

Zero was shocked, he looked up to see his sons with Cyril, "Thats imposible," Zero became angry, "KABUTO, KOBUSHI GET DOWN HERE NOW."
Kabuto and kobushi jumped the rails of the floor, "Yea?" Zero hovered over them.
"Did you seriously kidnapp one of Makotos sons, what the HFIL is wrong with you that would posses you to do such a thing?"
"well, we were boured so we took your ship out for a spin and one thing led to another, the next thingwe know we have some random kid in the ship with us. we took him back though as soon as we realized what had happened."
"huh, idiots, see Makoto they took the kid back, so no harm done."

Makoto thought for a moment. "How about they have to fight me once. That seems like a reasonable tease."

"My dad read it to me when I was young.."

Elucidia continued beating Ryuzaki "he isn't dying is he?"

Rick sighed, "How's being a widow?"

"Really?" Emily, absently played with a lock of Ama's hair that was hanging over her should, "Don't you just adore the Bishop?" Emily was on literature now, no distracting her now.

Cyril lost his audience. Damn.

"I think that is fair, teach them that their actions have outcomes."Zero looked out the window, "how about we take this on the roof."
Kabuto and Kobushi looked at each other, they knew they were screwed.

(Topic is now lethal)

Elucidia began slicing Ryuzaki apart bit by bit.

Makoto followed them upstairs

((Nope. I have to give consent, too.))

Rick got back up.

How about we as a staff decided you deserved itso it took effect?))

((That's ridiculous.))

You do deserve it.))

((For snapping after you incessantly knock be out for the duration of this topic?))

You made fun of a woman's dead husband...WHO YOU KILLED! That's just a really really dick move. Kinda beyond that))

((By "staff", do you mean two moderators or is Cyril in on this, too?))

Cyril said it was fine as long as you can continue the topic on heaven, which we agreed to))

((You still can't... you can't just... UGH))

Ryuzaki cursed you all as he died. He was just going to leave the damn topic and not go to fucking HFIL.

((Fair enough. Rick leaves the topic as he didn't consent.))

Cyril forgot what he was doing.

((I was hopeing to avoid an argument in this topic but..., things are now back to normal with the exception of Rick. Topic is no longer leathel.))
As the brothers stood atop the library in the rain they prepaired themselves to fight a man they could not hope to defeat.
Zero watched from the side with arms crossed.

Makoto motioned for then to come to him.

Cyril joined them on the rooftop, "Don't suppose you'd do me a favor and not damage the library?" Cyril liked this place, despite being less complete than his own library at Heaven, it had a certain architectural beauty his own did not have.
