WHO: Hermes and Hecate (possibly Kat working?)
WHAT: Talking about Clio's revenge
WHEN: Wednesday time
WHERE: Hecate's shop



There were not many siblings Hermes would do almost anything for, but Clio was one of them. He couldn't put his finger on exactly why, he just appreciated her company and it pissed him off when people messed with her. When Clio asked him for help, Hermes was more than willing.

He headed to the shop of his sometimes-wife, a spring in his step. He liked messing with people, especially Christians. Working something with Hecate would be really nice. He made his way inside and headed up to the counter.

Kat was still half distracted with the thoughts of her last date, and Victor by extension, she'd hardly noticed the bell over the shop going off. So she was half surprised to see her grandfather, but it didn't stop her from smiling at him.

"Hi Papou," with a smile she set her phone down figuring he wasn't truly here to see her. She figured if that was the case, he'd be at the apartment. "This is a surprise. You need anything?"

"Hello, my darling!" The Lowsley girls remained some of his favourite grandchildren. He liked them so much that he not only claimed them, but he appreciated their company rather than simply tolerating it. He went to hug her and then he planted a kiss on her hair. "I was actually looking for my sometimes-wife. But I do love seeing you."

She smiled into the hug and the kiss, returning the hug, before letting him go. "You're always welcome Papou you know that. We have loads of turkey too." Smiling she motioned to the stairs. "She's on the roof. She's there a lot lately." Kat didn't know how much of a normal Hecate-like thing that may be.

"I see," Hermes said, quirking an eyebrow up. "I'll come by later for some of that turkey!" Then he let himself into Hecate's apartment, knowing she would feel him coming.

He let himself out onto the roof and he smiled at the sight of her. "Hello, beautiful," he said warmly.

She had felt him coming, and turned away from the faint stars to give Hermes a smile. Winter always made her closer to him. "Hello." She didn't rise to come greet him, but she did shift on her seat to give him room.

"I'm getting a lot of visitors lately. I should show Zeus his place more often." Grinning she set her hands on her lap. "Is this because of the Muse?" She hadn't responded, but she had seen it.

[ever-mercurial.insanejournal.com]

Hermes sat beside her and he leaned over to kiss her forehead. "Not going to argue with you there," he said with a smile. "It is because of the Muse. Some Christian devil is threatening the man she loves."

[torchywitch.insanejournal.com]

"Hm," she didn't mind the Muses, but they weren't hers either. Then again, if someone would threaten Hermes or Peitho, they'd be in a box before long. "Depends on how strong he is, I could probably affect him." She wasn't, however, very fond of Christians. Too many had burned witches, her included.

"It'll probably be very draining though. What do you want to do? Kill him or just make sure he's in a place he can't leave from?"

[ever-mercurial.insanejournal.com]

"Clio said she just wanted him gone for a little while so there's no need to kill him. You and I could lock him away. She said he is known as the antichrist." Hermes didn't like the Christians either, even if he did tolerate Saint Patrick. Patrick didn't seem like a prude, and that made Hermes laugh.

"Wouldn't want to drain you too much though," he said, rubbing her arm.

She didn't immediately recognize the name, but that meant very little. She didn't keep up to date with the Christians.

Smiling she set her hand on his, "I should be okay. Having Medea is helping quite a bit." She tilted her head, thinking of ways to put something like that in something. "Besides, showing the Christians they aren't the be all and end all to this world pleases me. I'll need a place or an object to put him in though. And this antichrist thing. I'll need his blood, but I can get that if he's in front of me."

She shrugged and set her head on Hermes' shoulder. "If I knew more about him I'd send my ghosts for him. But I don't know what this thing is. Oh," she remembered then, "Khaos asked my help. It wants more turmoil. You may want to get your grandchildren out of the city."

[ever-mercurial.insanejournal.com]

Hermes looked over at his sometimes-wife and he smiled warmly at her. "A place shouldn't be a problem, I have several properties around the city. Does that work for a place to lock him in? Luring him out to get his blood shouldn't be too hard either, if we need help I can ask Clio's lover to act as bait." Surely that was fine, right?

"More turmoil sounds like fun to me, but you're right. If you tell me when, I'll make sure to get the girls out of dodge. Thank you for the heads up."

[torchywitch.insanejournal.com]

"It can, yes." She raised her head and grinned darkly. "We can put him in a place, and a casket? Bury it under the place? I'll find a way so no one can feel him out either." This was turning into more of vengeance for her, but she figured that was alright. She'd get joy out of taking some old grudges out.

She nodded to his suggestion. She hardly cared for the Saint. "do that. Blood is very good for these kinds of things. I'll get Medea to help us too." As far as she was concerned Medea would always help. The witch belonged to her.

"My thoughts exactly. And I'll let you know. It hasn't told me yet. I can afford to funnel some of the power I've been storing for that to this. And I'll collect a debt from the Saint. He isn't family."

[ever-mercurial.insanejournal.com]

"I love it when you're wicked," Hermes purred at her. "A casket sounds perfect. And I am sure the saint will pay up. It sounds like he wants this devil taken care of as much as Clio does.

He wasn't worried about what Khaos was planning. He liked a bit of chaos. As long as his grandchildren were safe, he would enjoy the city in upheaval.

"Do you want to come home with me?" Now that she was beside him, there was basically one thing on his mind, and it involved threesomes.

[torchywitch.insanejournal.com]

Laughing she kissed him, then rose. She did miss Peitho, and she was sure the other woman would want to give her due reward as well. "I'd love to. And shame Hermes. I'm always wicked." She smirked at him and patted her leg, smiling as Hekuba came up to her. She never went anywhere without the dog.

"Come, take me home and I'll get everything rolling."

Hermes kissed her right back and he grinned, pleased that she would be joining them. "You are, as ever, beautiful and perfect."
