The Grandfather of the Reunion

Act 1-3

The Prime Tech Deserters

Starting first memory playback with: memory of certain day

[It was daytime...well... They still can't tell except for their watches, but it's daytime. Hosea has...overslept, like, until 9 o'clock, but give a man a break, he basically had to sit inside a car and drove around for a few minutes, and just did nothing during guard duty, of course he'd be tired.]

[But with great fatherly instincts, comes great children intuition. Unbeknownst to Hosea, because he was still deep in his sleep, Mephisto snuck into his room, and tip toed his way towards Hosea. He kneels before the sleeping old man, who can be seen drooling. He must've been having a good sleep.]

Mephisto: "Hosea... Hey... Hosea... Wake up..."

Hosea: "Zzzzzz...."

Mephisto: "Hosea!... Wake up!..."

Hosea: "Zzzzz... No, that coat is fine.... Zzzzz...."

Mephisto: "Hm... He's out cold...." *He pokes his cheeks to be sure.* "Really out cold... How can I wake him up without him whipping me to shreds?..."

*The kid ended up standing and pacing around in his room, trying to find ways to wake up Hosea without him being mad as fuck, for fifteen minutes. It goes to a point Talulah had to butt in and help. Some of her hair is entangled in her horns, but she's too "Groggy" to care about her hairdo.*

Talulah: "What's happening here?"

Mephisto: "Oh! Ma'am! I...was, uh...trying to...wake up Hosea, he's...really deep in his sleep."

Talulah: *Her eyes widen in surprise, she then smirks maliciously.* "Oh is he now?"

Mephisto: "Yeah! I've...been...trying to...wake him up and... Uh..."

Talulah: "Step aside, Mephisto."

[Perhaps leaving the dragon woman who's unbelievably pissed off at Hosea for basically undermining her abilities unintentionally is a bad idea, but Mephisto is a kid...yet... Talulah walks close to Hosea, making sure her steps are as quiet and subtle as the voices in her head, grabs a bottle of water from his bag, spills some of the contents on her hands, warms it up, and splashes it on Hosea's bare feet.]

[As expected, Hosea spasms and jumps out of his bed, screaming all the while amusing Talulah, and horrifying Mephisto.]

Hosea: "Ah! Fire! Fire! Wait!..." *He glances at Talulah, whose expression covers subtle mischief as she hides the bottle of water behind her back.* "Very funny, Talulah."

Talulah: "What?"

Hosea: "Don't think I know what you're doing!"

Talulah: "What?!"

Hosea: "Ugh... Mother of fuc—oh, hey kid."

Mephisto: "Um... Hi?..."

*Talulah giggles uncontrollably, desperately trying to hide it as Mephisto attempts to help him up. Hosea brushes himself off and stretches, and continues giving Talulah the "I'm not furious, I'm extremely disappointed in you" look.*

Hosea: "You must be really proud of yourself, aren't you?"

Talulah: *She stops giggling, only for it to continue.* "Indefinitely."

Mephisto: "Are you okay?"

Hosea: "No, I'm not. I was having a good dream as well. I dreamt I was dead. And I much prefer that reality. Escape this chaos called life, and this bimbo called Talulah."
