LILY

[You're suddenly surrounded by shadows and howling winds, and feel a slash across your cheek--shadowy claw marks. All your powers, original, sheep, or otherwise, have been sealed off. You also find yourself shackled; shadowy tendrils keeping you in place, wrapped around your wrists and ankles.

And one of you, in the center is contained within an orb. You're free to move around, or maybe you fall asleep, as a small of amount of nightmare gas sedates you somewhat.

There is only one person allowed to move around freely--A Weed. Or if no Weed is present, one of you is released form your shackles, but chained at the throat.

A voice booms through the shadows. ]

You will tell me who deserves his Vengeance.

[he's used to gore. he's seen a lot of shit but.

he did this. ultimately.

he still stands there with an unreadable, darkened expression.]

Bombay. We need you to focus; the time is short.

Please.

Then think of something that doesn't involve sacrificing people here.

...

Flock members that have returned home and are dead are far out of a demon's reach.

Are you willing to input a past Lily?

It's worth a shot.

'Chronos,' then.

Got it.

Bombay...

[ he hates this look ]

[he wanted away from this life. of doing what he's told. hurting people.

but here he is.]

Look at me, Bombay. We'll... we'll finish this, go home. Make some french toast. Talk about Miri's pictures on my phone.

Hold it together until the end.

[he will. and is. but he doesn't have to like it.]

Understood.

[he doesn't have to like it!]

Thank you. I know you're not exactly in the best position here.

Oye!

[ Snaps his fingers to get his attention ]

Don't flake out on us. Look at us, not Perci.

I'm fine. But you're all idiots.

[and he's no better for listening.]

... We just don't want to hurt our friends.

They probably don't want you hurt either.

[also him. he doesn't want to hurt people here.]

And they can choose for themselves not to hit us. Just like we're choosing not to hit them.

You really think all the other flocks are sacrificing themselves like this?

Some of them, yes.

Which ones wouldn't?

Uh...I'd only be guessing. A few of them have had a lot of turnover since the last time we had a ritual like this.
