[sathan]

Help you how?

( she's curious about what other people believe about this place )

[laminae]

Uhhhhh.

[Good job, Fern. He should've kept his mouth shut.

He slouches in his chair, scratching his head as he looks away.]

My, uh. Anger. Feelings and junk. It's not worth talking about.

[sathan]

( he's right, feelings are gross.

except-- )

But you have.

( at least she's not prying into the junk )

[laminae]

Uh huh. He's a good guy.

[A good guy who he has opened up to because Will is very good at dadding problematic adolescents.

It... feels awkward to say that, though.]

[sathan]

( a good guy. oh, sweet child )

Well, that's everything.

( she also uses a tone that hides how she may really feel. is she glad or is she sceptical? )

He's in FEAR?

[laminae]

He is.

[He isn't sure how much of Will's life he should be keeping private, so better to be safe than sorry.]

He's got investigative skills from being a cop.

[sathan]

Perhaps he is a good man.

( though she knows that not all cops are. power could get to some people )

[laminae]

No 'perhaps' about. He's one of the best people here.

[He's very attached to his not!dad.]

[sathan]

( she'll see. not that she should be judging but he's not tangently related to her business. she's careful )

We'll see depending on what he does. Or gives.

[laminae]

[Man, why isn't she trusting his judgement on random guys in this town?]

What do you mean?

[sathan]

( oh, sweet child, lilith doesn't really trust anyone )

I'd like to know if he's useful.

[laminae]

Can't he just be nice without being useful?

[It's called having friends, Lilith.]

[sathan]

( does not compute.

men are rarely nice never mind just nice )

If he's as good as you say he'll be both.

[laminae]

Guess we'll see.

[Though he doesn't think Will needs to be both.]

So what's your kingdom like?

[sathan]

Hell isn't a simple place to describe.

( though if it had to be described she would be the best one to do so -- anyone else would describe it in fear )

Though perhaps you should rest more first.

[laminae]

[Aw, he frowns at her.]

I feel fine. [Mostly.] You can tell me if you don't want to talk about it, I'm not a kid.

[sathan]

( don't you sass her, child. you are absolutely a kid in her eyes )

I've never had to describe it before. Most have an idea of Hell or some imagination of it.

[laminae]

[He's sort of seventeen, he's practically an adult!]

It must be a common thing in other universes then, huh?

[sathan]

( 17, over 7000-- )

It's a part of Earth. Heaven and Hell, angels and demons. Though mortals don't believe it exists even knowing of its name.

[laminae]

[Details!]

I'm from Earth. We've got demons, and maybe angels, I don't know. [He's met demons, and they've got a general concept of angels floating around, but he's never met one.] No Heaven or Hell, though.

[sathan]

At all in your history or not one that you know of?

( because if he's from earth that makes it sound really strange )

[laminae]

I don't know. Maybe stuff was different when humans lived everywhere?

[He shrugs.]

That was forever ago, though.

[sathan]

Perhaps it's simply a belief that has been lost.

( though they wouldn't know unless someone could come and tell them )

It matters little.

[laminae]

Maybe....

[He sounds skeptical. What a weird belief to lose.]

Do you miss it?

[sathan]

Hell?

( she missed it an unholy amount. she'd longed to be recalled there and escape the mortal life when she'd served lucifer. now-- she'd ended up finding a few things in greendale that she did enjoy even if the majority of it was still tedious )

It's perhaps the closest 'home' I would have. I grew tired of the mortal world.
