Must be Tuesday

[xp_daytripper]

Well, good to know we're on track for October being the hell month. One serious injury, one teacher gone evil and one kidnapping, not to mention the FOH kid left on the doorstep.

Let me know when the grand rescue's been made.

And before people jump on me saying I don't care, I do. I just know there's not a thing I can do, there are people on it who are much better at this sort of thing than me and really? It's not like we haven't been through this before and mostly everyone come out all right. We live in a house with a bunch of superheroes and secret agents, after all.

So will you be providing the demon attack this year or is it Yana's turn?

[xp_daytripper]

Yana's turn, I think, Mine was Halloween last year. Tho' we're probably due for the military-style attack too.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

Aye, so we are.

I was under the impression it was Jubilee's fault last year.

[xp_daytripper]

Well, sort of. But it was me it was after, so technically 'my' demon invasion, I suppose.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

Ah.

Right then.

[x-snowflake.livejournal.com]

Well, if anyone wants, I can get one to chase them around for a while, but I promise I won't be providing any surprises this year.

[xp_daytripper]

Well, I'm out of Deep Dark Secrets, so if people want their demon-y fun, they'll have to see you. *grins*

You know, and here I thought everyone was just playing a joke on the new girl with the demon thing.

Not that I'd really like to meet one. Seriously. I'll take everybody's word for it.

[xp_daytripper]

Ask Jubilee to show you the scars on her shoulder from the last one. 'S definitely not a joke, as much as I might wish sometimes. *wry*

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

You'd be surprised how well makeup hides those things. And so glad that it does. They are seriously fugly.

[x-snowflake.livejournal.com]

You probably don't want to meet one. A real demon, that is. They tend to greet with evisceration.

And no, we weren't kidding. Well, we're kidding about the next invasion. In that we don't know when it will be. But there are demons. I own some. Quite a few, actually.

[xp_daytripper]

It's amazing what you can get on eBay... *grins*

[x-snowflake.livejournal.com]

! Maybe THAT'S what they're good for! I knew they had to be useful for more than giving Limbo that homey atmosphere. There are loads of dark sorcerers hanging around waiting for the chance to buy some demons! Brutal dictators of small countries! Agents of espionage! Supervillains! I'm going to be so rich.

... this is what they're trying to discourage in my personality, isn't it.

[xp_daytripper]

Um, yeah, they tend to discourage arms dealing in the shape of demon peddling for some reason. Something about not encouraging the bad guys.

Maybe we should write a book. 101 Uses For Demons Around The Home.

[x-snowflake.livejournal.com]

I look at them as morally-challenged and in need of a unique pet to speed them on their road to success. You know, I think you've struck something brilliant for once.

I can think of some uses, but they all involve getting rid of people I don't like. Which is really only one use. 100 more to go.

[xp_daytripper]

Note to authority-types: It was a joke! Honest!

I can think of a couple. Getting rid of unwanted homework (since what teacher's going to argue with "a demon ate it" when you've got one sitting next to you large and life and twice as ugly?). Home heating (for the fire-imps). Target practice for leather brigade trainees (okay, not a normal household use, but hey, that's our house).

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Amanda!

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

One was summoned using my blood by a very nasty man in the worlds ugliest hat. It was something of a learning experience. The kind with 'Do not ever do this again, or you'll end up being evil and wearing black leather' type signs attached to it.

Although...I seem to be wearing the black leather anyway. *eyes her other trainees* Did you realise we're evil? See, says so right here in the evil manual (tm) Point # 1 (Fashion) Must wear revealing leather clothing.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Technically, Jubilee, we are only morally dodgy. Our leather is grey, not black yet.

Besides, some of us have had black leather in our wardrobes for quite some time. Doug has black leather pants, and he is not evil...

[xp_daytripper]

Yet.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Doug is shaking his fist in protest. I have no idea what this means.

[xp_daytripper]

He's not evil yet? Or maybe he needs the bathroom?

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

... I think he's -trying- to say that he's only a little evil. It is hard to tell sometimes, espically since all he is really doing now is humming Disney villian songs.

[x-snowflake.livejournal.com]

You know, it's odd, I haven't had very many queries. Must be the slow season.

[xp_daytripper]

Been there, done that, maybe? Demons could be passe now, like disco and Furbies...

[x-snowflake.livejournal.com]

We can only hope. If it's not so trendy, maybe they'll keep to themselves.

[xp_daytripper]

No arguments here. I'm done being a trauma trend-setter.
