[bileygr]

Hm... nh?

[ Raising her head slowly from the table. ]

Oh, I fell asleep early... [ and then frowning a bit, looking at the phone. ] Not this again. Better leave before we get hit by another astral phenomenon.

[voidshift]

Again...? Did it play music like this when that happened?

[bileygr]

It did. Just as loud and alarmingly, though the one I heard earlier had lyrics.

[voidshift]

Do you remember them?

[bileygr]

'Cause you're hot then you're cold, you're yes then you're no... ♪

[voidshift]

...it sounds ridiculous.

[bileygr]

It got more demonic as time went on.

[ Rip Katy Perry. ]

[voidshift]

Fitting.

[he huffs a sigh, ears twitching in annoyance.]

How is your arm?

[bileygr]

Doing alright, thanks to you.

[ Stop bandaged to avoid irritation! It has not stopped her from using it, but she's set least not just leaving it as is. ]

[hardrocklife]

You're hurt?

[bileygr]

A bit of an accident and hasty decision.

[ Why did my phone try to correct that to gay. ]

Had to briefly suffer some fire. It isn't too bad, and my own fault, really.

[voidshift]

Good. Make sure you keep it clean.

[or ELSE]

[bileygr]

Yes, yes. I'm invested in keeping my writing arm functioning as well, I'll be careful.

[forefall]

What kind of lyrics are those?

[ she is focusing on this because it is the least anxiety-inducing thing at the moment. ]

[bileygr]

It seemed to be about some romance trifle, which would fit with following events.

As we explored around, though, it seemed to end up turning more into a demonic "hotter or cooler" indicator.

Hell seems to love pop music.

[forefall]

As in... temperature.... or as in... how close you were to being a demon of some sort?

[ pop music is so.... new to her.... ]

[bileygr]

Temperature. It's a sort of metaphor, for his close or far away you are from the correct objective. Hotter means warmer.

That's besides the point though, the point is -- a song played, and then strange phenomena occurred. Reality distorted.

[forefall]

Did you have an objective?

And did anything happen other than a meteor?

[bileygr]

To find the source of the sound, I suppose? It's all really hard to make sense out of. I mean, the sky screamed at me before dropping a meteor barely feet away from me.

Yes, books began to glow and the contents of them began to leap out. So, I'd stay wary of anything that glows sickly green.

[hardrocklife]

Astral phenomenon?

[Looking over from his lil reading corner.]

[bileygr]

Yes.

Two days ago, I narrowly missed a meteor hitting me, right in this same building actually.

So, leaving may be wise, unless you want to also try getting harassed by YA novels coming to life.

[hardrocklife]

What!?

[Alarm at the meteor, then...] ... What? [... Confusion about the latter part.]

[bileygr]

Yes, you heard me correctly.

Lavi can corroborate my story, though we have little proof...

[bookpapers]

Chandra was there too. We had a video and everything, but...

Just stay away from anything that's glowing.

[hardrocklife]

... I'll take that under advisement.
