[Filtered away from Angel/ Angelus]

I need any information on magic pertaining to souls, unleashing or releasing them. Any information would be helpful.

This is not the first time Angelus has been released. The first time it was released by ancient Asian magic. It took a powerful witch to get it back. And in the meantime, he went on a rampage.

I don't care if he's on some bounty. This isn't who he is, and I'm sure it's to be said for the other vampire. I'm not the most skilled in magic, but I think I could do this. I simply don't have the right resources.

If any need information on protecting yourself, holy water and crosses will fend him off, but I advice staying in your house or apartment.

My son, I'll deal with him.

[whycantistay]

Don't worry about it, Michael. It's my fault. I should have warned him.

Re: private

[magnetic_magpie]

Not the point. I didn't know he was injured.

private

[whycantistay]

Angelus must have gone after him looking for me.

Re: private

[magnetic_magpie]

Probably. I left him a voicemail warning him.

Re: private

[whycantistay]

God, this is my fault.

Re: private

[magnetic_magpie]

Did you remove his soul?

Re: private

[whycantistay]

It's a really long story. Of the Apocalypse variety.

Re: private

[magnetic_magpie]

I meant this time.

Re: private

[whycantistay]

Why would I release it? I'm the one trying to find it. [Don't start with her, Mags. She's not exactly stable right now.]

Re: private

[magnetic_magpie]

Then this isn't your fault.

[He's making a point.]

Re: private

[whycantistay]

I should have been in closer contact with Angel. I should have told Griffin.

Re: private

[magnetic_magpie]

Perhaps on the former and yes on the latter. Does it matter now? No, not really. The past is the past. We can't change it. Learn from it, move on.

[paterelohim]

Until I see your name on him, I'm allowed to be a decent human being at him too.

[magnetic_magpie]

You know I actually will write my name on him, right?

[paterelohim]

To keep me from being decent at him? Father of the year, bro.

[magnetic_magpie]

To keep people from yelling at him because he just won't listen if you do.

[paterelohim]

I'm not yelling!

[magnetic_magpie]

He won't hear it that way.

[paterelohim]

Then he needs a friggin Xanax.

[magnetic_magpie]

Yes he does.

The boy's been hunted his entire life Chuck. Watched his parents murdered when he was just a little boy, been on his own since. Because he was born different. Born with a special power.

If he lives long enough, he'll learn not everyone is out to hurt him. But it takes a long time.

[Not like he has personal experience.]

[paterelohim]

[That's super interesting and tragic and stuff, Erik, but Chuck is still tweaking mildly from the echoing void of Anna disappearing and is resisting a more or less constant urge to tell everyone around him to fuck the hell off. So he struggles to keep looking as engaged as he probably should.]

I get the tragic backstory and it's awful, but he needs to not get his issues all over Fred when she doesn't need that shit. That's called being a decent human being with a grain of empathy.

I'm gonna go make more coffee.

Re: private;

[magnetic_magpie]

[Sadly, because he knows this reaction.]

He's not a decent human being Chuck. He's a frightened, angry boy who has had his place of safety violated. That makes him violate and reactionary, dangerous, and lashing out at those who would help.

That doesn't make him taking it out on Fred all right, it doesn't. Nothing does.

But that is why I said I would handle him.

private;

[paterelohim]

I'm agreeing with all of that? And I'm also gonna stop talking about this and go make coffee, because I have too much on my mind right now.

How d'you want it?

Re: private;

[magnetic_magpie]

I'm just clarifying. I was worse at his age.

[Much. Much worse.]

Depends on what kind you are making. I've been on a Turkish kick lately.
