Prompts

• FULL VIEW - The Observers really do their best to make each villager's wrist device as user-friendly for them as possible, but with all new tech, sometimes there's a learning curve... And sometimes, you just screw up. Like now, when you've accidentally triggered the video option and called someone completely random on the network without realizing it. Yep, you're just going about whatever, totally oblivious. Here's to hoping that your clothes are fully on, and that the person on the other end is nice enough to speak up sooner rather than later.
• SHADOW OF A DOUBT - Being the intrepid (or just bored) villager you are, you've gone exploring and found yourself a very interesting (if moderately spooky) cave. What lurks in the dark? Might it be some shadow dust to turn you intangible? Or perhaps a cave wolf with all of its little goblin-monkey friends? Maybe, just maybe, it's both.
• ILL AT EASE - 'Tis the season for the common cold, and you've got it. Unfortunately, the village doesn't have a corner drug store, so you're achy, miserable, maybe a little feverish. The good news is a little time in bed should do the trick. That is, if you're not the sort who has to be bullied to take care of yourself anytime you get sick. Either way, maybe you'll be lucky enough to find someone to tuck you in and bring you some chicken soup.
• WILDCARD - Choose your own adventure. Maybe play powers roulette.
• NETWORK - All characters are fitted with a smart watch-like device on their left wrist, which they can use to send text and video messages to other villagers. Text and/or video are allowed, any length. Display names may be changed by characters on the fly, but anyone can tap to see someone's real full name.

Please list your CHARACTER NAME, CANON & PROMPT NAMES in your SUBJECT LINE.

Well, at least she's not hitting him with it.

"I didn't ask for you to be brought here!" he protests, and only belatedly does he hear how that sounds. It's not that he doesn't want Maze here with him, because at least it will be good to have someone who understands him, but dragging her to purgatory is the last thing he's after.

Especially when things are so complicated. "This is absolutely Mum or Dad's doing," he says, sure of that. "Some sort of punishment or revenge, but it's never stopped me before and it won't this time. We'll find a way out."

It may still happen. He only just arrived, after all.

Maze sits listening, taking a swig from the bottle while her knee begins to bounce impatiently.

"Oh, come on!" Maze abruptly interrupts as soon as he says it, standing now because her anger is mounting again. "You said it yourself - I'm your demon. I can't do this without you, Mazikeen. At least we have each other, right, Maze?"

After she's done impersonating him she leans forward and points a finger into his face.

"Yeah, sure, I know it's them BUT ALL BECAUSE YOU PISSED THEM OFF!"

As soon as her voice switches to a yell, the tip of her finger ignites into a flame.

Lucifer may not jump back, but he does lean a touch backwards in wariness. He'd bought himself several handy little powers, but he'd skipped right past the pyrokinesis. He points to her, to the finger, to the fire, and decides that diplomacy will be best suited here.

"Maze," he laughs, trying to calm the situation down. "Yes, I admit, things may have grown out of my control," he replies, his tone stressed, "but what was I supposed to do? Cain is the Sinnerman," he says heatedly. "He could destroy everything. Isn't it better to help him, stick it to Dad, get some leverage?"

This is a pit stop, they'll find their way out of it, he truly believes that.

[preciselyoneofus]

For the moment, Mazikeen doesn't say anything about Cain because she knows how she helps him and betrays Lucifer. So the distraction, as momentary as it might end up being, is welcomed.

Freezing in place, her eyes go from his face to her finger and then grow wide looking at the flame dancing on her finger. "I thought we didn't have powers here," Maze says, leaning back again. Not that it was an ability the demon had before. As she stares at it, the fire grows in size. "Are you doing this?"

It was a fair question to ask.

[sonofthedawn]

"I bought myself a treat or two from a quaint little machine that the humans usually use for snacks," Lucifer admits, but none of it had anything to do with flames. He gives Maze a delighted laugh as he looks her over, eyes bright. "I think you may have earned someone's affection if they're courting you with literal firepower."

Maze with the power to fling fire.

It's a dangerous thing all right. "This should be fun."
