Yeah know what? More Blood Demon Pearl and Gem but now with a new person!
Impulse was just traveling! He didn't realize that he walked into the Peril Forest! And he was lost until he saw a house... weird. The house seemed old and weird. It was the house with an open out door area in the middle and outside the house were swords stabbed into the dirt. Then Impulse being the dumbass he was knocked.
Gem heard a knock. She was just cleaning the dishes when she heard it... people don't knock when they want to face Pearl... weird. So she answered it was a downpour so it was very cold. She opened the door to find a weird short man. He wasn't in armor at all, not even a little, so Gem concluded he wasn't here to fight.
Impulse looked up at the tallish lady and told her what was happening. He was lost and needed a place to stay. The woman "Gem" told him he was welcome to come in. So he did
Pearl immediately felt a second life force enter her home and got up. It wasn't an animal, no, it was a person. Pearl got out the room she was sleeping in and saw a frankly pathetic human man. And when he looked at her he froze. Seems to not be used to Pearl or demons.
Impulse stared at the woman in front of him. Her skin was grey, and her eyes were void with an island of red and coal black hair. Everything about her said, "Demon! Run or your soul is done for!"
Gem just went back to her affairs. And looked between her wife and the man "Impulse". Pearl clearly didn't like him and Impulse was scared. Hope nothing bad happens
Impulse knows better than to piss off the demon who's house he appears to be inside of. He was welcomed in, unless they're planning to sacrifice him. What if they're planning to sacrifice him?! Gem seemed like a reasonable person, but he's only just met her!
Thunder cracks through the sound of pounding rain. His clothes are soaked through and sticking to him, the water dripping onto the floor silenced by the rain. The trees outside were sparse, and had few leaves, creating a strange paradox of being mazelike yet providing no shelter.
He thinks he has to take his chances - there's no way he'll survive out there either.
The demon points into the room off the hallway, saying simply, "Sofa."
"Pearl, stop being rude to our guest!" Gem's voice calls from the other direction. "Get some blankets and pillows down from upstairs."
The demon - Pearl - groans in a way more akin to a sulking teenager than a force of evil, and trudges up the stairs in a sulk. She returns with two pillows, a thick blanket, and a towel. After thrusting them into Impulse's hands, she disappears into the kitchen.
That's as much invitation as Impulse thinks he's going to get. At least if he dies, he'll die cozy.
