Ooooh, Siren's Port! Hel~looooooo! ♥

I've got a job proposition for some lucky person. You too can be - a Magical Girl!

Fight witches! Wear ~adorable outfits~! And gain fantastic powers! For instance, I've got HUNK RADAR, if you know what I mean - and I know you doooooooo! ☆

[ WINK ]

Sadly, however, I've got to resign my position. I just don't have the time for it anymore. And, quite honestly, I've gotten a bit bored with it. I'd just quit, but…

I'm helping to write a book on workplace etiquette, and I'm told it's best to at least try to find a replacement. Not that anyone could really replace me, ahahaha!

But anyway, if you want the job, make sure Kyubey gives you a ~real~ gemstone.

[ Grell holds up his Soul Gem necklace. ]

I thought this was a ruby, but now it's gone all cloudy!

Tch! I'll show you to fool a Death God, you stupid CAT!

You better have.

Why are you suddenly backing out on your contract? Not that I object, at all. But, I have never heard of a demon revoking one.

[deathknellgrell]

Eh--

[ SHRUG ]

I got bored with it. Besides, I won't have time to hunt witches, planning for our wedding!

Oooh, and I figured out what to do if you lose your memory again.

[ Because, in Grell's mind, this would be the sole consequence of backing out. ]

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

Honestly, I believe the bigger issue is whether or not that demon will even allow this. I highly doubt it.

[deathknellgrell]

All you've got to do is write yourself a note, you see, explaining what's happened, and--

[ Grell pulls a face. ]

Pffft! I'll kick it out of him.

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

[ William ponders the idea for a moment. It's actually brilliant in its simplicity. ]

I suppose that could work. I will write one, just in case.

[ William knows it is not going to be as simple as kicking Kyubey. He's well aware of what that "ruby necklace" contains. He can feel Grell's soul contained within it, and it's made him feel uneasy ever since his memory returned.

He reaches out, taking the orb in his hand, noting the tarnished look it's taken on. ]

[deathknellgrell]

You'll just have to be thorough, so you'll know it's not a--

[ He blushes as William reaches for the Soul Gem. ]

Nnnnn.

I think you'll need to write a book~♥

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

It looks worn.

[ There's an actual, detectable amount of concern in his voice. ]

Have you been holding up your end of the contract, at all?

[ Grell disappears out of the flat so often, William couldn't say if he's out hunting witches or simply bugging Keigo. ]

[deathknellgrell]

Yes, of course.

I mean.... Er. I had been. Well anyway - that's why I want to get out of it!

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

[ William grips the orb tighter, protectively. ]

I should have reaped that wretched demon the moment I found out about this mess.

[deathknellgrell]

Nnnnngh~!

[ William holding his Soul Gem like this... Grell feels all warm and soft and blushy inside. ]

Ahahahaha, do you want to? We could do it together. It would be fun!

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

[ He finally lets go of the gem. ]

Your soul needs to be back where it is supposed to be. I have a feeling that simply reaping the demon would not remedy this situation.

[deathknellgrell]

[ Awwwww ]

Can't hurt, can it?

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

Yes, it could hurt. The necklace may disappear with the demon. And then what will happen to your soul.

I only have the ability to reap souls, I have no knowledge of how to replace one back into its hosts body.

[deathknellgrell]

[ Now if only we had Undertaker here... ]

It'll be fine!

[ Grell has no ability to sense his own soul, and as such has always been skeptical about the soul-in-the-necklace thing. ]

Besides.

How can this really be mine? It shouldn't look so dull and dirty, I've been such a good Grell lately.

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

I can sense your soul inside it. I could from the beginning.

You may have been good according to my standards, but I am not the one who put your soul in this orb.

[ All set to drag Grell out to fight witches. ]

[deathknellgrell]

I have?

You really think I've been good?

OoooooOOOOoooooooOOOOoooh~! Will! ♥

[ And that's all Grell got out of this exchange! ]

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

Unless you have done something I am unaware of.

[deathknellgrell]

I haven't!

[ For once, he's actually telling the truth! ]

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

[ William scrutinizes Grell's face, looking for any telltale signs of lying. He pulls back after a moment, content. ]

Good.

[deathknellgrell]

Anyway!

[ Reaching up and draping his arms about William's shoulders. ]

Don't we have some work to do?

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

The book?

[ They do need to work on that. William frowns at the soul gem, one last time before nodding his head. ]

Yes, we need to actually write something this time.

[deathknellgrell]

Good! So we can--

[ POUT ]

But idea gathering has been so much fun! I really think we need to do more ~research~!

[gtfo_mypersonalspace]

Fine. But I am in charge this time. Understood?

[ And he drags Grell off to the Chez Grell and Will post! ]
