A. Around Town
[There's a young, blonde haired boy simply going about his way in the snow. More accurately, he seems to be busy either building snow men or finding snowmen that have been built by others. And once he finds one or has finished building one himself?
He turns to
a small, pumpkinheaded figure that has been floating beside him.]Burn

Pyro Jack, brother to Jack Frost, hm? Well, well. You're regaining your army little by little.
[Kashihara, wearing his black, pinstripe suit and long, red scarf around his neck, approaches Lucifer and his little minion. He gives a similarly fond look at the snowman Lucifer quickly built and melted away. It's been quite some time since he saw their antics. They used to be quite common around colder areas where rumors beckoned them.]
A belated Merry Christmas to you.

At the Merry Christmas however, Lucifer stops. And turns around, hands still patting down the snow, smiling.]
Merry Christmas, Nyarlathotep.
Despite what it's been transformed into to serve His purposes, I quite liked the Nazarene himself.

[But indeed, humans have gathered together an absurd collection of rumors that changed the purposes of this time of the year. Whether it was purely for His purpose is something that Nyarlathotep cares little about. Either way, the words of humans who feared, hated, or were generally indifferent to YHWH have served his own purposes quite well and provided him an invaluable weapon in his latest game.
Kashihara returns a smile to Louis if only to keep up appearances.]
I wonder if he enjoyed those three days as much as you might have.

I sometimes wonder if he might have been onto something, considering the pains Father and His servants took to have him killed and the religion perverted.
[Lucifer continues to pat the snowman down, pat pat pat, though his smile fades as Nyarlathotep continues to speak, and Lucifer shrugs.]
Man dies, demons die, all things will eventually die. It's just that each leaves something behind, and those that come after them will see what it was that was wrought.

This seems like a horribly counterproductive activity, you know.

Perhaps a little. Rather though, I find it to be the way of things.

Still, are you truly at a loss for a good use of time, or are you just enjoying the spoils of Christmas? [he inclines his head toward the strange pumpkin thing, assuming it to be a recent regain like his own.]

[The Pyro Jack floats a bit closer towards Charles. As far as it knows, Charles is just a human, and stares at the boy with weirdly flickering eyes, tittering laughter escaping it for a moment.
Lucifer laughs, as well.]
I'll admit it. I'm glad to have back what is rightfully mine.

[Well then, small world. Or multi-world, whatever the case may be.]
So you use Personae too?

Persona.
[He sounds the word out, rolling over it. Pretending like he's never heard the term before, that he's entirely oblivious to what it is.]
Is that what they're called? I didn't know. It's just something I've always been able to do.
[The Pyro Jack titters, laughing crazily. But of course, that's just naturally for one of the Jack Brothers, who seem to have an inability to shut the hell up at any point in time.
Certainly it couldn't be foreboding in any way.]

It's what we call it. Some people here use different names.
[He approaches Pyro Jack, pulling out the Jack Frost doll he got in his Christmas stocking.]
Hee-ho.
Reply
[He's curious to see if there are any others in town that had escaped his notice that would call themselves "demon summoners" in specific. But even if they don't call themselves that, it'd be interesting to know what there terms were for any other summoners.
The Pyro Jack gives a Hee-Ho! of its own before looking at the doll, chittering happily.]
Master! Master! Look! Look hee-how small Frost is! Why doesn't he move? Why doesn't he-ho move?
It's a doll, fool. It can't move.
[Mm. Perhaps it was a bad idea to be as sharp with one of his minions as he was just now in front of Minato, but he couldn't help it. The ignorance of some of the lesser demons always annoyed him, at least to a small degree. Their memories, at times, would prove pitiable, and things they had known would quickly escape them.]

She notices but she doesn't really seem to mind period. Believe it or not, she's seen worse. Like a human who could stretch his neck the same amount of length. Her speech seems to be slightly slurred, and her movements are a bit sloppy. It's a clear indicator that this may not be her first drink! ]
Heh. Hope you're enjoying the holidays yourself. I never celebrated Christmas but if it comes with free drinks than I think it should be held a little more than once a year. [ She raises the glasses cheerfully waving at the man as her left hand flops over the bar. Did I forget to mention that right now, Tsunade is physically looking like she's eighty? I did? Well, my apologies but that is something definitely worth mentioning! ]

Mmm. I find them quite quaint and entertaining, myself.
It depends on the company you find yourself with. I'm sure there are many who'd say to drink is a sin on this day, though they're those who'd say it's a sin any day.
Reply
Well, minus the part where everyone was erased [ sarcasm. ] and we had to kill them, today wasn't really that bad.
Tch. Drinking isn't a sin, and I'm sure we all have our vices anyways. [ EXCEPT HER HER DRINKING, RAGE, AND GAMBLING HABITS ARE NORMAL AND SINLESS!! ] Those that criticize are no better than those who are condemned. [ except if it's killing and other generally terrible acts of villainy! ]
Reply
Well, that is the way of curiosity. I suppose some of them just couldn't resist to know what would happen, on either end.
[And those who were foolish enough to take the deal in the first place, let alone if they were too weak to defend themselves? Deserved whatever befell them in the killing game that just transpired, as far as Lucifer was concerned.]

What are you doing?
[omg wtf.]
Reply
[And he just manages to say that so innocently. The Pyro Jack titters a little.]
Playing! Playing! Playing heat-ho the snowmen up!

[She points at the Pyro Jack.]

Jack! Pyro Jack! At your service, hee-ho!
