"Well, you have to be able to save ass in order to kick some."

“Yeah. Especially when the odds are stacked like 50 to 1 in their favour.”
-
"They never are..."
-
“Well, I know your friends will be glad to see you again. Possibly a little angry if they think you faked your own death, but happy.” [b][i]He said, smiling a bit. It was strange though, that Angelo didn’t even know James, yet he treated him as if they were good friends.[/i][/b]
-
"Why would I fake getting my throat slit?"
-
“No idea. People don’t exactly think straight when you come back from permadeath.”
-
"Well, I don't know how I came back. I was chatting with Ulysses S. Grant. Then suddenly, I'm back in my own body and this magic-wielding girl was standing in front of me and gave Delphi back to me."
-
“Yknow, if I hadn’t been in this place for a while now I’d say bullshit. Now that just kinda sounds normal...”
-
“Last time someone did that two fools owed me drinks for the rest of the night, so I’d be careful with that.” [b][i]He said laughing a bit. After a moment the gates of the Dojo were in sight, as Angelo took out his phone, calling Blake.[/i][/b]
-
"Nah, I'll bet my glimmer on bullshit," he said.
-
“Dude, my job before this was to kill Demi-god like mages, now I know people who come back from the dead, are possessed by demons, and more. It’s all starting to sound like normal.” [b][i]He said, before calling Blake again, hoping he picked up.[/i][/b] “Cmon man, pick up the phone...” [b][i]He murmured to himself[/i][/b]
-
"If you're trying to contact a Guardian, you ping their Ghosts," Delphi suggested.
-
“And how exactly would one do that?” [b][i]He says, looking over to the ghost.[/i][/b] “I’m not one of you guys, don’t know the tricks and shit.”
-
"Leave that to me," Delphi replied.
-
“Good. I need you to contact Blake’s ghost.” [b][i]He said. He’d leave James to ask Blake about that later if he chose to.[/i][/b]
-
"Already on it," Delphi replied.

-
"Open the door?" Delphi asked, "I'm not going to question it." "Blake... how has he been doing?" James asked.
-
“I meant the gates to the Dojo. It’s -blam!-ing freezing out here and they shut the gates.” [b][i]He said.[/i][/b] “Blake was doing rough, though he’s better now. He missed you, to say the least.”
-
"Transmat would be faster," James said. Soon, they were outside the door of Blake's apartment.
-
“Again, I don’t know these things. Not a guardian.” [b][i]He says, laughing a bit. Angelo knocked on the door, speaking.[/i][/b] “Blake, you home?”
-
The glasses-wearing Titan opened the door. "Angelo! And--" He paused, looking to James. His eyes widened. "Nu-uh. JJ? Is that you?" Blake asked.
-
“Oh so he gets a nickname but I don’t? I see how it is.” [b][i]He said jokingly.[/i][/b] “But yeah, as far as I know it’s him.”

Edited by Splashback77: 1/31/2018 1:24:38 AM"Heh heh," Blake laughed, nervously, he stepped to the side, "Come on in."
-
“Thanks.” [b][i]Angelo said, smiling a bit as he awkwardly assisted James inside, setting him down in the nearest couch or chair[/i][/b]

He sat down. He shivered from the cold. Blake seemed to be causual. He wore a long sleeve flannel short and jeans.
