“Asswipe,” Anthony thinks as Scrag leaves. “Why did we create that piece of shit,” Anthony whispers to Dr. Hoito as he passes to lead the news crew to interview him on his other creations.

All this talk of scrag is making Charon's head spin, his anxiety is taking control of his body. He pushes himself up from the from the table. "If you'd all excuse me" He says calmly as possible. "I find I must use the rest room" please continue on without me for I shall return shortly"
Charon steadily walks to the bathroom and washes his face off, he exhales and looks at himself in the mirror. "Not now" he thinks to himself "Why must it happen now?'

I return a little while later after finishing my phone call and resume my seat next to Ronja.
"So we talking about Scrag? I've heard interesting things. He seems to be good at what he does... Shame about that name though. Terrible, terrible sounding name... And names are so important!"
I drink the tea Hilja brought in for me contentedly and cross one leg horizontally over the other... I watch as Charon leaves but don't think much of it.

Anthony leads the news crew out of the building and says, "I'd love to show you our little secrets and whatnot, but you simply don't have the clearence." Anthony returns to his lab a sits in his chair, staring at the television and munching on a bag of chips.

Ceph doesn't flinch, still having questions for this man. "Why are they fighting each other?" He spoke, knowing that it would probably be valuable information.

"Scrag is very ambitious and well repected man." Ronny reply. "He took me in when I was around 8 or 9. I kinda think of him as my father."
Ronny did not had any choice when she was younger because Scrag only gave her two choices: go to prison and died or dropped her previous beliefs and become a Manalist.

I watch Charon go. Maybe we somehow upset him. Maybe Calithin upset him by saying that Scrag was a bad name. Although I think Charon left before Calithin said it.
"Well, Scrag is not so bad of a name. It fits ..how he looks!" I say cheerfully. "Why, if he was named Joe or Larry...or Lovelial ...it just wouldn't suit him."
"Anyway...it means...a dead standing tree. Like in some of the swamps here. A dead tree that hasn't fallen yet."
"I read too much." I add.

"Well, who knows. Communists and anarchists and rebels of all different sorts have always fought each other. It isn't anything new. I guess if you wanted to know, you could probably go up to them and ask...hey, why are you fighting, or rioting and stuff." Dinari replies to Cephrien.
He yawns and decides that it is time to feed his fish. He starts to sprinkle fish food in the tank as they talk.

"I don't think you read enough... Or atleast not enough important things... Economics... Ayn Rand... Cookie recipes... Etcetera."
I drink some more tea and stand up, walking around the room as I talk.
"I guess Scrag must be a more compassionate man than people give him credit for, if he took you in, Ronni... And obviously raised you fairly well. I'm not getting over the name though. It's still horrible no matter how great he is. I don't care."

Anthony watches himself on the television news. "I wonder how they're going to screw this up," he asks out loud.

Charon takes a deep breath and departs from the bathroom. He returns to the table and smiles "I'm sorry friends, I think I must have eaten some bad potatoes recently, But don't worry" He says waving his hands apologetically. "I'm sure the rest of my food is safe to eat"
Charon stands up once more "I'm going to grab some crackers, would anyone else care for a bite to eat?"
(I'm gonna get some food irl be back in 6..yes 6)

Anthony watches the television for a while and gets out a book to start reading.

"I don't need anything, but I do hope you feel better." I say with concern. As for my reading, I enjoy reading and do it as much as I am able. I am just a very busy person! I say nothing to Calithin about this, but I do find it interesting that Scrag took this woman in. It seems like an un-Manalist thing to do.
"That is nice that he took you in. Did he treat you well?"

"No thanks," Ronny reply says to Charon about the snacks before looking at Hilja.
"Yes, he did treat me alright, but I should be going now." Ronny reply and stood up. "But thanks for the orange juice."
Ronny slightly smile at them before she quickly left Charon's house and walk down the street. After walking for 10 minutes, she manage to find a teleportation booth and teleport back to Rome.

"I'm not into politics, so that question is irrelevant to me." He replied.. at least the 'Rioting and Stuff' part was.
"I fight to live, that's all I really do in this world." The white haired demon man spoke this very casually as if his life-style was completely and utterly normal.
"In that case. Do you know where I can find the Rebels?"
His golden eyes watched as the fish snacks fluttered down the water tank, only to be taken in by the small fish bodies.
