Shade smiled and nodded. "Sad to say but that makes two of us. I can't remember a time when people just, you know, knocked on teh door after taking a car, train, boat, or plane to get from point A to point B." she said, though upon further thinking of that statement, she realized she was guilty of the same thing. Shaking her head with a smirk she set her empty plate down and lied back on teh old wooden floor. "I'm just looking forward to some normalcy for a change. I mean, other then the crap thats going on with Spiral, and Angel boy, there's finally some downtime since we got out of Site 1." she closed her eyes for a moment then moved to sit up again, propping herself up on her elbows. "By the way, you mentioned voices in your head, whats that about?"

"I took planes. Not sure the targets appreciated the part where I got off ta kill em'. Same deal with gettin' outt'a cars. N' I ain't got much of a choice n' usin' doors less I wanna make somethin' explode. Guess that makes me some sorta twisted form a' polite." He'd finish the Sandwich on a Stick and sigh. He'd move his hand a bit, the one he'd used to hold the fork, Narcissa's ability having been the only reason he could. Once she mentioned the voices in his head he'd shrug. "Nothin' new there...Zadkiel's voice still resonates now n' again, but it's been a while since he's spoken up. But there's another ******** like Ishado, Kain's brother, but it ain't him. Don't cuss enough to be that dead b*****d."

"Can't say I can help in figurin out who it is in there." she said, tilting her head to one side. "I don't know who Ishado is, so I don't know who to compare him too." she moved and got to her feet going to the window and opening it to let a breeze in. "As far as angel boy goes, pisses me off he used us like that, and it bugs me that I know somethings going on and don't know what." She looked at him. "How are your hands? Can't say we got much in the way of painkillers other then good ol fashioned alcohol. People around here about as close to naturalists as your going to get without them being all weird about it."

"Went most a' my life without painkillers, y'know. Opium was good n' any sorta alcohol I could get my hands on. Point is: Don't much care about big white pills. 'Least if I'm drunk n' you can have fun, too! Endless possibilities there, trust me." He'd offer her the most sincere grin he could, then rub the back of his neck. Which hurt. "Ain't the first time these things have hurt. Usually means they're caught in a loop of trying to close off 'cause I went n' used all the power, sometimes more, I could with em' n' yet the curse/gift-thingy ain't letting them close. So, I just get ta wait 'till the power's restored, basically. Doesn't take more a week or so. As for Zaddy n' the Irish ******** talkin' in my head faster n' I kicked Kain's a**...I was the one dumb enough to open up to em'. Price I pay."

Shade snickered at the comment of her having fun with him being drunk. "I'm sure there's a bottle of somethin or other in the cellar. I'll go look in a second." She moved from her spot at the window and reached around to undo her necklace. "Back when I first started out as the ferry person, I had to manage all the different voice in my head too. It's probably not the same as what your going through, but Death gave this to me to make sure I had a good enough handle on my mind so that I didn't go crazy like my mother." she tossed the necklace to Lucian. "I don't need it now given my new role, So maybe it'll work for your voices."

He'd catch the necklace and smile. He'd manage to get it around his neck and begin to wave his hands to try and rid of the bit of pain. "Ain't gonna complain; anythin' that could help's a friend a' mine. Even if I could just bring em' down to whispers 'er keep em' from forcing me into excruciating pain each time I tried to do somethin' to make myself happy..." He'd sigh and sink as deep as he could into the bed. "Just the fun I get ta deal with for denyin' every mortal's fate...at Migoto guy, he'd got the same problem. Probably sees it as a gift, but I guess at' just makes em' an ignorant fairy..."

Shade nodded in understanding. She'd seen the effect teh voices had back at the in in Romania. "I'm curious about that Migoto person as well. I wonder what he's got up his sleeve with bringing some form of Vincent back. She frowned. "I feel like I should help in getting rid of that kid, it's more or less my job given he's suppose to be dead." she surmised.
She went to teh far end of the room and thunked the heel of her boot down on a couple of boards. "I'm also curious about that second voice of yours. Given it's not anyone we've met if it doesn't sound familiar." she moved and repeated teh movement with her heel. She did this a couple more times till she was in teh adjacent room down the hall. "Ah ha!" there was a loud and long squeak as something was opened. A moment of silence other then dull shuffling noises. Another long squeak and a latching noise and a moment later Shade was back with an old dusty bottle of something dark and alcoholic smelling, the cork in her other hand. "Not sure what it is, other then home brewed."

"I wanna punch myself for not figurin' the fairy ******** was up ta somethin' when we still coulda done somethin'. Too caught up n' the bullshit that's raining down...'least it was then. N' that kid's...I dunno. He ain't right, but I don't think he needs ta die just 'cause he's some sorta half-assed reincarnation 'er whatever. He needs ta die 'cause he'd too freakin' chaotic n' powerful." He'd sigh and punch himself in the thigh which hurt his hand a hell of a lot more than his thigh. He'd wince a bit then look to the bottle and shrug. Drink was a drink, thus he'd take it and again the pain would return to his head, though not nearly as bad. He'd more or less shrug it off and take a long drink before forcing the bottle to retreat from his mouth and sighing. "That other voice...dunno what to tell ya there. Spent some time n' Germany n' got myself caught by the wrong people...mighta had something to do with that. Thing is I got all these memories that I don't remember having experienced. All ******** up, but I got em' and each of seems warped, like it was twisted to fit me..." He'd look to the bottle, now questioning if he ought to be intoxicated, then look to her. "You're the one that's seen it. What, I pull some Dr. Jekyll n' Mr. Hyde s**t; Bruce Banner n' the Hulk? Or am I ******** up n' my own special way?"

Shade took a seat on the bed as he asked if she remembered his switch-a-roo at teh Site before. She leaned over and plucked the bottle from his hand and took a drink before handing it back to him. "Yea, I wasn't too sure on what the hell happened to you. I had to go and bring you back from the Old death so I figured maybe you'd picked up a lost soul on teh wayout or something. I've never heard of that actually happening before, but odd s**t has happened lately."

"Can't say I remember much a' bein' dead. In my mind, I was n' then I wasn't, though I got fuzzy images n' scrambled words. 'Sides, I think the old Death would'a kept somethin' like that from happening, or fixed it on the spot if it did. Doubt that kinda crap would get by em'. Tell ya what though, feels like a separate soul. Friggin' annoying...maybe I'm just...man I hate to even think a' this as a possibility, but maybe I'm freakin' nuts? I mean, I hear voices n' got that schitzo-crap goin' on..." He'd look to his hands and sigh as she drank, then take the bottle back as soon as she went to hand it to him and chug it damn near empty. "Affiliatin' myself with weird dead guys promisin' me the power ta become a God which no Merc is gonna pass up...n' Zadkiel promisin' to show me this n' that and given me somethin' to live n' fight for...n' now I got you n' now that I got somethin' I can be at piece with, it's like the chaos is tryin' to kill me off."
Raziel would keep himself silently perched atop there cute little abode, his aura and all other "sensable" things completely suppressed. He'd also created a barrier around himself that would allow people to see what would be there if he weren't; a sort of invisibility though he was actually affecting the body neurologically, not just in the form of the senses. He'd tap directly into Lucian's mind, not exactly a hard task and allow him to again hear the second voice in his head, once again ditching the accent. "You are crazy. You haven't gone crazy, you've BEEN crazy. Zadkiel was erased from your mind and yet you still hear him; FEEL him. And who am I; who is it you're hearing at this very moment? You know the Lich would never use a conjunction, so who am I? Tell me, no, don't answer, just think: When did you start hearing me Lucian? When did you first begin to feel ME? Haven't you felt me; heard me more and more as you've been around this woman...Death?"
"SHUT YER ********' MOUTH!" He'd rise from the bed and quickly move to the door. He'd look about frantically, including up at the roof. The voice had left his head; he couldn't even feel the presence that usually went along with it. If he hadn't chugged down whatever the hell she'd given him. He'd finish the rest of it off and toss the bottle aside before hanging his head and sighing. "Bad when the voices n' yer -hick- head 'er tellin ya yer friggin' crazy..."

Shade nodded. "Even worse when you know it ain't true, but start believing it anyway." she watched carefully, a bit unsettled by his sudden outburst. She was starting to get flash backs of her mother in the loony bin, and made promise not to stick Lucian in one unless he asked her to. She wasn't entirely convinced he was crazy yet. Stressed to the point of being such possibly, but not full blown nuts. "Why don't you lay down and try and get some sleep. I mean actual sleep too. No making stuff appear out of nothin this time around." she said, refering to the crystal ball he'd made earlier. "I got no were to go, so I'll stick around and re-acquaint myself with layout of the house or something."

If not for the alcohol interfering with his system he'd of no doubt reverted to the side that ran off of his mind as opposed to the heart, or rather emotion. The complete inability to use his mind, for once, would prove useful considering all he could do was feel and react. He'd begin to breath steadily and look out into nothing while slowly removing the bandaging from his right hand. His palm would look much better, but still swelled with some bleeding. In an instant he'd remove one of the hand cannons from his coat and fire directly at the presence he felt on the roof. The only reason he could feel was his connection to it, the one left open by Raziel. He'd watch as the bullet sped and just stopped, seeming to just poof out of existence. He'd holster the gun allowing a now heavily bleeding palm come into view, his hand obviously not ready for the kick. He'd laugh a bit and shake his head. "N' now I'm thinking there's invisible s**t on the roof n' bullet 'er dis'pearing. ********." Sadly, he didn't have the ability to think this situation through, thus he just stroll into the house and collapse on the nearest thing he could plant himself on.

Shade moved to stand and ask him what he was doing, only having to stop a few feet from him and cover her ears as he fired a shot at the roof. She looked up, expecting to see damage done to the roof or something. No damage though, in fact, there wasn't so much as the sound of crumbling rocks from the cliff behind them, or birds on the cliffs flocking about at the sudden shot, that should of hit the rock wall, had it missed the roof.
She had half a mind to say something to Lucian about him not being crazy, and that his bullet obviously did disappear, but his bleeding hand kept her from saying much, as if there was anything on the roof, he wasn't in any condition t o do anything about it. She moved and walked out on the patio the was the roof of teh room below and stared up at the roof that was shot at. Unknowingly she'd lock with Raziel, unaware of who was on the roof or why. A set of stone stairs framed the side of the house that led to teh roof, and Shade moved to walk up them.

"Lad's a damn drunk...hard be it to blame him, though. Not all of us can be cursed with the privileged of havin' Death loom over us each each morn n' night. Now n' again I catch myself thinkin' whether it really be me who's messin' with em' or if yer somehow playin' with em'." He'd rise up from his perched position and grin, turning to face her in white and golden robes as opposed to the usual armor. "Tell me, what do ya plan ta do now? Are ya gonna try n' lecture God himself, or even try n' pick a scrap? Ya might be Death, but ya ain't got experience nor the brass. That n' I know ya wouldn't want ta be reapin' yer lover boy 'cause I'd have to kill em' if I weren't made happy; I've had enough bad news, or rather lack of ANY news for one sittin'. Unless ya want his mind turned ta lethal mush I suggest ya be nice n' civil...n' if that beast comes roamin' on up I suggest ya silence 'er. Are we in accordance or do ya need to see the wrath n' such?" He'd rip the bullet from his gut which would seem to heal rather quickly given Lucian had nearly blown a hole through him. He'd toss the metal to her and grin, arms behind his head.
