magic works differently in different world but generally it's big sacrifice / big reward sort of deal usually dangerous. a lot of the time dark. it's usually not typically 'good' forces that get channelled with blood
[ For his birthday, Nick gets a very short video clip. It's of Logan alone in the shower room of the gym, though he has clothes on. He sets the phone down on something, then backs up a few steps to make sure he's in frame. ]
Okay, this happens one time. And you don't tell anyone else about it.
[ He looks down and starts nodding a little. Nick might realise he's counting himself in, because after a couple of seconds he launches into a full-throated and surprisingly decent rendition of the chorus of Kelly Clarkson's karaoke hit, 'Since U Been Gone'. The acoustics in the shower room definitely help, but it's clear that he's getting into it by the time he hits the end of the chorus, even tipping his head back a bit to close his eyes, but that's when he stops and reaches for the phone. ]
[ nick watches the video a lot before he replies, each time grinning more than the last, and he deliberately doesn't save it -- but he sure as hell doesn't delete the message, either. just because he doesn't want it misfired somewhere doesn't mean he's going to rob himself of the opportunity to rewatch it.
so--nick loves it, it's basically the best thing he's ever seen, it makes him laugh harder than he has in weeks, but what logan actually gets in response is: ]
look, I get it if you need to be alone whatever's going on with you, that's your business to sort out and if you need to do it on your own that's up to you nobody else gets to decide how you deal with all of the shit this place has put you through
but your friends are getting worried about you, so if you need me to head off their trail just let me know
just take care of yourself so I don't got to tell them bad news
[ the first thing nick does when he crawls out of the caves--and out from under the thumb of the demon formerly known as hellboy--is crash for half a day, when it all very suddenly catches up with him. the second thing he does is to go home.
he still doesn't have a device yet so he doesn't call ahead, just turns back up at the front door and bangs loudly on it before he walks in. ]
Is anyone home? [ he calls out loud as he walks in. nick is mostly just trying...to work out what day it is, honestly, if anyone even should be around right now. the days sort of blurred together, until he got out. ] I'm here, I'm okay.
[He doesn't know that Nick's already in the loop regarding Sam, Sam's feathers and William - he doesn't know much himself but he's reaching out because of a confusing panic. Nick's the one witch he trusts to reach out to, so:]
ur healing powers does it work on severed limbs putting them back on
