• messages will be sent to all involved parties at 1:00pm with coordinates to meet up at 2:00pm.

• everyone will be briefed again on what to expect, shown where the healing spells and supplies are, equipped with magic defense boosting accessories (rings, pendants, bracelets — whichever you want)

• after the briefing there will be a short period of time to warm up

• PHASE 1 begins at around 2:30pm, and all participants can join in for the fun.

• Phase 1 will last for 20-30 minutes

• There will be an intermission of 5-10 minutes for people to recover with potions and spells. At the end of this break Era will shift into Dark Knight and trigger Living Dead, prompting Phase 2 once her soul has left her body.*

• PHASE 2 will last for 5-8 minutes. Hades will be focused on killing Era, so will not actively target anyone else. This is where everyone plays their part to distract him and protect her body while her soul does the thing.

*Her soul will be visible and look something like this, until she hops out of sight.

• The entire fight will be finished by 3:30pm at the latest, with Era having trouble figuring out how to get back inside her body (Hades will shove her back in. thnx bae), and the combat 'arena' will be vacated by 4:00pm.

• Lup's mansion will be nearby and ready with enough rooms for everyone to rest, a spa/bathing area, food, etc., for recouperation.

• Everyone is free to top level and tag around as much or as little as desired. Any questions can be directed to the relevant Plurks!

• Ardbert will send out a message to relevant parties that Era woke up for a bit on the evening of Wednesday June 9th

Is that the point? Here I hoped the point of this was secretly that you simply enjoyed my company that much.

I would be quite surprised if you thought that was any secret.

I've not quite lost my common sense that badly just yet, my dearest.

Well, it would not take so long to knock it back into you it you'd had.

[ She holds the brush out, giving a playful flicker of the wrist to give the brush a small shake for emphasis, before returning to reigning in his hair. ]

Not long at all, with you around to aid me.

[He gave a contented hum at the brush in his hair, whatever tension was left in his back and shoulders gradually leaving it.]

Good.

[ For a moment, the conversation reaches a natural pause while she continues to brush his hair out to make it suitable for braiding, though she takes it to mind to hum softly as well. ]

[Ardyn seemed content with the quiet; for all that he had reacclimated to touch, it was still easy to let himself get lost in it. The light pull to his hair was a comforting thing, especially paired with the presence of someone he trusted at his back.]

[...It would have been far too easy to just fall asleep right then and there, honestly.]

[ She keeps it up; once she can tell he's relaxing, she takes more time and care with the brushes so he can get the full benefit of it, till his hair is soft and no hints of anything tangled.

While making an efficient braid, she then might attempt to sneak in a light massage to the back of his head if she can get away with it. ]

Mm...you're spoiling me terribly, Honerva, my dearest.

[nowhere in this sentence, of course, was the word 'stop']

If you find this spoiling, then clearly I am not yet doing enough.

[ But since he has not said to stop, she will be less tentative about her intentions. ]

I will surely remember this. My vengeance will be swift and terrible. Possibly a shoulder rub, if you are inclined to suffer so under my hands.

[Nefarious.]

Is that right? Don't think you'll get away from my magic fingers so quickly, if it will inspire even more such possibilities from you.

Oh, I'm in immeasurable danger, then. I will have to get creative with my eventual retribution.

Well, you will have plenty of time to plot it if you so wish, now that I almost have you where I want you.

'Almost'? And just where specifically is it you want me so utterly defenseless?

My, so demanding all of a sudden. Clearly, you are not relaxed enough yet.

Me, demanding? Perish the thought, love, I would never dare.

That would be a shame, because I was enjoying it. Even if you'll just have to bear with being at my mercy for a little longer.

[ Her gentle massaging has continued, from the back of his head to seeking the tension spots in his shoulders. ]

For you, I can suffer so terribly at your hands for as long as you like.

[Heaven forbid he object to something so nice, practically melting under the touch to his shoulders.]

Then I hope you do not have any plans any time soon.

[ Well, relative to the time that yet remained for the mansion spell's duration, of course, but they at least could have the spa to themselves at this point. ]

I almost never have plans. And if I did, I can think of none more important than the time I spend with you.

[what a charmer]

I know you have other more important priorities, but it is sweet of you to say otherwise.

[ Charmer he may be, but she knows that line. ]

Well...if nothing else, I've nothing even remotely more important at this particular moment.

Good, because there is nothing remotely more important than making sure you get the care you need right now.

I really will remember this and be sure to do the same several times over when next I must convince you to take a break from your work.

[he will rub your shoulders, gods help him]
