  1. "Alright. What do you intend to do with what you make?"
  2. "Even still, I standby what I said. What do you intend to use the sword for?" --------- Early that morning, Nicolae stirred, waking. The effects of a hangover made his head feel like a marsh; stuffy, wet, and humid, crowded with fog. It was miserable and the deep gash on his torso did nothing to ease that. For a moment he lay half in dreamland, suspended in misery, unsure why other than the nebulous idea that this was what he deserved. As he emerged into wakefulness, however, memories began to return, last of all his conversation with Fischer. The memory - clouded by alcohol as it was - felt far away and formless.
  3. “Yeah, no. If we’re going to work together I need to know why. This is an organization that has condensed demons laying around. I don’t want you using the sword for evil.”
  4. “I’m not particularly interested in ruling myself. Why do you want the sword?”
  5. “You’re really serious about her heir thing, aren’t you? I’m sorry, I just find it hard to believe that you’d just let someone rule. You don’t even know me.”
  6. “I don’t know, maybe I can just go to the palace and find the sword. I don’t feel comfortable breaking in. At least not…. If I’m going to break in, I’d rather know where it is I’m going in order to steal.”
  7. “Last time I was with him, he offered me a favor. Maybe I should go back and collect on it.”
  8. "Unlike my brother, I don't need to sneak into the castle to get anything." He sighed. "The king knows me and trusts me. If I request an audience, I can get in without any trouble."
  9. "I'm sorry, I'm not putting a demon in my body. I think I can just get the sword without it thank you very much."
  10. "And what good will stabbing myself do, exactly?"
  11. "Oh, Fischer. She... She..." Nicolae blacked out.
  12. Maverick's eyes widened mockingly. "Excuse me?"
  13. "Yeah, I thought so too." He smiled. "Names Wendy. She's a waitress." "Well, yes, I heard that much."
  14. "I think... I think I's in love with someone else, Fischer. A... a girl."
  15. Nico stayed silent, his vision and hearing dimming.
  16. "Just tuh make up for 'ow 'orrible I am."
  17. "I ain't worth crem..." "You're disturbing, you know that?" He sighed. "You probably do. What do you want from me?"
  18. Maverick caught it carefully, then gave her a flat look. "Throwing sharp objects is frowned upon, child," he said.
  19. Nico allowed himself to be dragged, mostly because he was so tired. "I'll just find another way to die when ya leave," he said.
  20. "I'll stand in Mal..." Nico muttered. He closed his eyes.
  21. Maverick raised an eyebrow, thoroughly annoyed by this woman. "If you offered more respect, I might actually be more inclined to call you master. It's backwards you've chosen the form of a child to reside in. You practically breathe opportunity to be disregarded." "Iffin' 'at's true, why was you so furious with me at the bar?"
  22. "Yeah, you's better 'an me Fischer, always 'ave been. Doesn't have to rub that in."
  23. "An edge?" Maverick repeated. "What's that?"
