Arden and Isaac would be refueling after one of their usual surprise sparring sessions, Isaac taking the W this time as they'd get their usual beef bowls, Isaac humming

"so, arden-chan, when are we gonna go track down dario? Apparently the whole Brando empires shaking something fierce after Darius got blasted ta' smithereens?"

(( @zagreus-the-black-dog-jojoocblog ))

Arden would stop having his beef bowl. “When we actually get an idea on where the hell the bastard is hiding because from what it looks like, even the Shadow Troupe has gone off the radar and their usual hiding spots are empty.”

“Hmm… That won’t Do…”

Isaac would scarf down the rest of his bowl, nearly unhinging his jaw to finish it fast

“maybe…crazy idea here…we ask Darius himself…because Rivera-San seems to be sure he ain’t dead…he said “I remember seeing him when I was thirteen, he’s not dead” …whatever that means, cause isn’t Joseph in his ..like, forties?? Plus he’d have no choice if we’re helping him catch the guy who hospitalized him!“

“Sorry to tell you, but the bastard is either as dead as hell or incapacitated. That and I doubt that he’ll be that easy to find. Still, we can give it a shot or we can run to his ‘most trusted’ servant.”

“oh yeah? An’ who might that be?”

Isaac would curiously tilt his head

“Shogekia Shiona, a.k.a Thunderstruck, a shapeshifter from what I’m aware of, and the creator of the Tyrants, patchwork human replicas and literary every bioweapon under Darius’s command.”

“aaah, so it might be best to take him down regardless huh?”

“Yeah. It’s always best to take down the supplier, besides I’ve been itching for a rematch with him.”

“Nyeheheheh, I’ll show him what being truly thunderstruck is like~”

Isaac would cackle

“So, we go ahead and find the one eyed bastard?”

“Hell yeah, let’s go!”

“Alright, he’s usually somewhere in Italy, so we’ll start there.”

“Alright, you got all your shit ready?”

“My stand is a walking arsenal. I’m always ready when I know what I’m up against.”

“Alright, then let’s go!~”

He’d grab Arden and turn into pure electricity, taking the two to Rome airport

“Aaand here we are!”

The mercenary looks around and sees that he is indeed at the airport. “That was certainly fast.”

“how do you think I always get the job on you, arden-chan?…now any idea where to start?”

“Most likely the main city.” The mercenary suggested, fixing his coat. “We’ll start off there.”

As they’d leave the station, Arden would run right into a man in a cream colored suit, with white hair and golden eyes, knocking him straight to the ground

“Aagh! Fucking hell! Try and watch where you’re going, i just got this suit cleaned!”

Arden turns over to the man, giving him a downright death stare, matched with his signature grin. “Sorry sir… I’ll be more careful.” He then turns away and continues his search.

"You smiling at me?...you thing this is a joke?!"

The man would get up, brushing himself off, he was not intimidated by Arden at all, but Isaac seemed terrified of the man, tugging on ardens sleeve suggesting he'd apologize more genuinely

Cres

A sudden chill passes over Latte, as if the world itself seemed to cool within seconds. Something seems to be placed in his hand by freezing cold fingers before the chill suddenly disappears as quickly as it came.

When inspected.. a singular deadly nightshade blossom was placed in his hand.

Has something happened?

Latte wasn't a flower expert like esmée, but as an assassin he sure knew what nightshade was

"hmm...maybe esmée would like this for her garden?..."

He'd finish cleaning glasses and text esmée a picture of the flower

garden-of-the-valentines

No response.

"that's weird, whenever I mention flowers she texts me like five paragraphs about them... Maybe it's nighttime back in italy?..."

garden-of-the-valentines

The longer he contemplated over the flower and held it, the more the cold returned along with this sense of dread.

The flower was absolutely freezing, frost could just barely be seen lining the petals.

"this isn't a normal flower..."

He'd mutter as iris would pass by the bar, causing latte to follow as she was carrying the same flower

"Salvio! I need your advice"

This has to be an imposter or something latte would never ask that

(( @latte-the-part-5-oc ))

Who the hell...? Latte doesn’t respect Salvio enough to want his opinion on anything! Salvio doesn’t trust this at all, but isn’t going to go jumping into a fight just yet.

“Uh... Sure. What is it...?”

@latte-the-part-5-oc

"bow ties or neck ties which are better for a wedding?? Cause I don't wanna screw up my look for my son's and you're the only other guy I know besides Joseph"

“Latte.

Do I look like a man who can tie anything.”

"no but you can still have an opinion can't you??"

@latte-the-part-5-oc Our daughter got a giant Valentine’s bear, it’s only fair that you get one too.

",,,god dammit you're so sweet to me I don't deserve it"

Ok I’m packed, are you ready to do an investigation?? -beccablakerivera

“…I have been waiting since you could talk to ask me that, sis”

(Continued)

“So, uh… Does that mean you know why he just disappeared into the sky? Because I sure would like to know why that happened!”

“I think whatever deity he made a deal with to keep my body wanted him to pay it back, since he didn’t have my body anymore it came to collect…”

“Oh… That’s how he did this? That never ends well.”

Becca scratches the back of her head. “So, uh… Now that you’ve got your body back, when you’re up to it, I think you should probably go check on your people to make sure he didn’t pull anything weird… And give your girlfriend that christmas present. Assuming again that he didn’t ruin your love life. Speakin’ of which, I gotta go make sure Iris is okay… Where’d your friend go with her?”

"he left her with crescenza and i, she's ok...no injuries thankfully"

Ok I’m packed, are you ready to do an investigation?? -beccablakerivera

“…I have been waiting since you could talk to ask me that, sis”

(Continued)

“Wh- Mr. Antony?! How the hell… Whatever, not looking a gift horse in the mouth… And nah, this isn’t foundation work. This is on my own time.”

Becca nods. “Yeah, he’s… Sort of possessed, I guess that’d be the best word for it right now… I’ll explain later. I hope you came all the way here because you have some sort of idea.”

“I do!”

He pulls out a revolver

“we just…y'know…shoot him a bunch”

“Excuse me???”

“I’m just fucking with you, years ago your dad helped us pull a friend who was trapped in their own stand using his requiem, since BBR can make a portal anywhere, I was thinking we yank mordred outta zag and beat the fuck outta him”

“If… You say so. I didn’t even consider BBR, I didn’t think it’d cooperate with something this small-scale… But if you think it’s worth a try, then I’ll… Try, I guess.”

Becca concentrates for a moment, before summoning forth BBR. She doesn’t have much time to be surprised that that worked before the stand punches a portal in the air and reaches into it, grabbing something.

“g-grab a little to the right Becca!”

Zags voice would ring out

“Crap! Sorry, Zag!”

BBR follows his instructions, and grabs something further to the right, before yanking it upwards.

A large black spirit with piercing red eyes would be pulled out, glaring at becca

Mordred: “RELEASE ME!!!”

BBR does not. Instead, it yanks him the rest of the way out of the portal, up into the air, and then slams him down into the ground as the portal closes.

“ERYYYYYY!!”

“GRAAAAH! YOU BITCH!!”

Mordred spirit would lunge at becca

It’s job complete, BBR reverts into its original form as Backstreet Boy, but the stand does not stop its assault. When Mordred lunges, it punches him in the face… Or where Becca assumes the face to be.

It’s time for part two of Latte’s plan.

"get his ass!!"

Latte would unceremoniously scream, summoning nightmare who'd assist BB in beating up mordred

(Continued)

Becca starts running, briefly stumbling and catching her balance on the side of a building, before taking off again.

“Yeah, that’s right! Come get me, if you can!!”

mordred would give chase, still struggling as Zagreus was fighting internally for control

“I’VE COME TOO FAR TO BE UNDONE BY ANOTHER GALILEI AND HIS BRAT FRIEND”

“I think you’re gonna have to go a little farther.”

After leading Mordred further away, Becca stops. With a cry, Backstreet Boy punches the ground beneath Becca, and she disappears into the resulting portal, reappearing back where she touched the building.

With yet more space in between her and Mordred, she races back to where Iris is lying and attempts to rouse her. “Hey Percy, could you do me a solid and keep my girlfriend from getting killed while I distract this very large angry man??”

“yeah, sure”

He’d take iris up to the roof of the place they were staying before mordred catches up with becca

“I quite tire of this chase, Becca…”

“Do you? Gee, I wonder if that’s why we’re doing it?!”

Becca jumps back to regain some distance before running away again. Maybe if she could get him back there…

“ENOUGH OF THIS!”

he’d grab her with four tendrils

“Say your prayers, I’m going to tear you apart…”

So much for that… Running could only work for so long, Becca supposes. She attempts to fight the tendrils off, to no avail.

C’mon, Zag, she thinks, this is the point in the show where you conveniently regain control before I’m ripped limb from limb… I can yell your name dramatically if that’ll help…

“ZAG!! C’MON, MAN…!”
