Spectre comes across Dahlia with in a ebony and gold armor and suit. Greetings Dahlia, it's been way to long.

Fenris comes across both Dahlia and Spectre in his normal attire Hello, and welcome.

Some people just refuse to stay dead. *Sam chuckles* Good to see ya again, Dahl. It's been quite a while.

A pair of green eyes watches from the shadows. Welcome back, nya. Their owner smiles, a flash of sparp white teeth in their hiding place, before silently departing.

Spectre smiles behind his helmet and gives Sam a firm handshake. How are you Sam? Working in the lab as usual?

*Sam shakes his head.* When am I not? As for you, I thought you were also supposed to be dead. How'd that work?

Dahlia giggles at Sams remark. Dahlia: I told you it was just a simple vacation. now that im feeling a lot better, i decided to come back as i felt I couldn't leave you guys hanging.... just as she said this, a familiar purple haired lady comes charging at her, tackle hugging her. It was Medea, the "witch of betrayal" that she summoned to the nexus. Medea: Ah, Dahlia-sama! Welcome back! long have I awaited your return! Dahlia: Ahaha... hey medea. Sorry bout bein gone for so long...

Long vacation. Could've assumed you'd moved there. *Sam sighs.* Heh. Well, that ain't my business, I suppose.

An awkward laugh comes out of dahlia Dahlia: Yeah, sorry to make you guys wait so long. She then turns her attention to fenris to introduce herself. Dahlia: Hello there. My name is Dahlia. Sorry for not introducing myself earlier. Medea: And I am Medea, A magus that has sworn her loyalty to Dahlia-sama. 'Tis a pleasure to meet you as well. Medea curtsies from within her long cloak at them as Dahlia bows politely.

A 7 foot tall giant of a man in ancient Chinese armor and adorning his head is a ornamenti wth two very long feathers flash into existance from red lightning and looks at Madea and Dahlia with bold burning within his eyes. Lu Bu: Good to see a ally of Lord Spectre. Spectre: So Dahlia. Meet Lu bu my persona... kind of.

All you people and your stupid summons. Lu Bu. Medea. Caeser. Hades. Mayu (Comms): Jealous Boss? Please. I have Raijin under contract. I just have the tact to not have summon him if I need his help. He just has to send me one bolt of lightning and I can handle the rest.

Dahlia: You as well lu bu. Glad to see you’re holding up well, spectre. Medea: Likewise. then in comes ratatoskr, dahlias persona, evolved from the pirate anne bonny. Rata: Yo, wassup. Its been way too long since ive been here. Names Ratatoskr, but you can call me rata fer short. Nice ta meecha. the squirrely triskster gives a thumbs up toward its new friend.

Lu Bu looks at Rata that even demons dread. Lu Bu:... It is nice to meet you Rata... Spectre: You alright? Lu Bu sheds the tiniest but manliest tear. Lu Bu: It is a wonderous earth shattering day for your son to have my daughter at his side.

Dahlia: Well, never would i have expected this to happen. Medea and Rata: Yeah... The trio were stunned speachless momentarily until dahlia spoke to spectre. Dahlia: oh yeah, thats right. Hey spectre, hows flik, lotus and the others doing?

Mayu (Comms): I though he was too tough to do that I guess even devils may cry. Mayu (Comms): Bad reference. What reference are you assuming I'm making?

Dahlia: So sam, how are irona and braza doing? I bet the twins miss me for being gone so long. Medea: An understandable assumption to make, considering its been literal years since you all last met.

The brats? They've been... *Sam shudders.* Keeping themselves occupied. Wait, did you say years? Mayu (Comms): She is a servant. Maybe her timescales just off. Ugh. Magical wars. The worst kind of wars.

Medea: has it actually been at least a year since Dahlia-samas extended vacation began? It certainly felt like it has... Dahlia: Well, no matter how long it actually has been, the fact that they probably miss me still holds true.

He snapped out of him staringinto the void. The two are enjoying their time. They have been enjoying their new huger habitat.

Dahlia: Glad to hear. Cant wait to catch up with the others when leblanc gets rebuilt. If it hasnt been already that is...

Eh. Probably. Those two probably don't care much, to be honest with you. They're disposition tends to have them move on from one hting to another without a care in the world. Mayu (Comms): Blame Titani and Obero Yeah. Also, last I checked, Leblanc and all other assorted joints are closed for business. Something about them being targets for people who like blowing buildings up or some crap like that.

Dahlia: I see. I can understand that. Once your establishment gets blown up enpugh, you eventually stop reopening to avoid further property damage. Well, i wouldnt mind finding somewhere we can meet up and catch up again. Medea: It certainly would be nice to talk with some new and old friends.

Hmm. Well, I think Corbin and his many "friends" are still around some times. Bona got in trouble from airport security about a bomb or something like that, so I think he's been deported back to lands unknown. Mayu (Comms): That never happened. Shiza died at some point last year after you left due to "unknown causes probably caused by the devil that lived inside his head for months". Mayu (Comms): That's... kind of what happened. Leo's currently in Nohr I think hunting down a formless. I help him sometimes, but I'm busy right now tracking down a snake. Mayu (Comms): That's totally true. And finally, I think Reaper and a few others just defied gravity and fell off the face of the planet at some point. Mayu (Comms): No comment.

Yeah what Lu was referring, I got a son in Nohr. Along the fat that he eventually visits here. he itches his neck trying to think of something else to talk. And Reaper and crew are just doing their own things.

dahlia snickered at the last one. It seemed rather karmic that the man that has haunted her life has finally left. Dahlia: Ok... you have just made my day. I hope ceasar rests in peace, he’s been through a lot. And i would help leo out, but i dont wanna seem like im intruding on his affairs... but that last one though... dahlia snickers again, nearly burting out into laughter.

Last I checked, that son of yours thinks your dead, Spec. *Sam shrugs.* Mayu (Comms): Hey look. Someone actually gets your sense of humour. I'll have you know I try to be socialable sometimes. Mayu (Comms): Do it more to me then Now, where's the fun in that? Mayu (Comms): You're so mean, Boss.

... I just chatted with him yesterday. I am in the Astral Plain residence. And he took it very well. Seems Anankos got a bit lonely after the whole Corrin humbug.

So you ARE still dead. Thanks for the clarifacation.

Dahlia: Well, when theres a prime opportunity to introduce him to me, please do so spectre. I’d really wanna get to know him! Medea: As do I. Out of humble curiousity, whos the lucky girl?

Will do Dahlia. And... he looks at his wristwatch. Gonna buy some things for Geist. See you two later. he vanishes in a puff of purple mist.

I think you embarrassed him with that question.

Medea: Well... oops. Medea looks down and blushes with embarrassment. dahlia pats her back reassuringly. Dahlia: Its OK, Medea. we let it get the best of us some days...

Mayu (Comms): Probably married a th- I'm not letting you stoop that low, Mayu. Even if we know it's true.

Dahlia: So... is there anywhere Medea and i can take residence for the moment? Or will we have to do some DIY work?

I don't think anyone sleeps anywhere in this place, honestly. Mayu (Comms): Try the homeless shelter. Is there a Homeless shelter? Mayu (Comms): I dunno. Make a homeless shelter. That sounds boring. I'm not doing it.

Dahlia: If we had to build a house, i'd rather build a proper one thank ya very much...

Building is boring. Mayu (Comms): Magic one up Magic is overrated. Use technology. Mayu (Comms): Always the best idea.

Dahlia and Medea: Trust me, if i had the experience to do either of those i would have done it in a heartbeat...

I'm sorry, but did a servant of the Caster class just claim she can't use magic?

Medea: i cant use it to build stuff. besides, that'd just be a waste of mana if i could...

Medea: I mean... splurging a bit to make someplace to take shelter in would be fine, but otherwise its a waste of mana... Dahlia: I see. Fair enough...
