What can you tell me about blood magic?

[extent]

nothing good

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

[grunge]

No shit.
What would it take to knock it out or weaken it?

[extent]

stronger magic
someone more powerful
spells designed to target him specifically
something to disrupt his connection to what he channels maybe

i'm working up options

[grunge]

You working up anything else? [ innuendo intended. ]

[extent]

[ lying is basically second nature now, so ]

no

[grunge]

Super convincing.

[extent]

oli made me promise to stay away

he left

[grunge]

Good.
I need him desperate for a contract.

[extent]

why

[grunge]

You tell me your plan and I'll tell you mine.

[extent]

i asked first

[grunge]

Too bad I'm not a six year old.

[extent]

my plan doesnt rely on anyone elses moves
yours apparently does

[grunge]

It doesn't.
I just want you to let someone watch your damn back.

[extent]

you've done enough for me, okay? you dont have to do anything

[grunge]

I haven't done shit for you.
If I'd just let you believe Will's lies we wouldn't even be here.

[extent]

you told me, you didnt have to
you let me talk about shit, you didnt have to do that
you answer when i reach out, you dont have to do that

its enough

[grunge]

Don't do that.
Don't put me on some pedestal just so you can feel like you're beneath me.
Like its more okay if you get hurt.

[extent]

its hardly a pedestal u answered the phone dont get ahead of urself

just let me handle myself

[grunge]

What is there to handle?
Your friend is out.
If this is about protecting people we want the same thing.

[extent]

he's not out, not really.
it doesn't mean anything until that contract expires

[grunge]

[ It might if he put all this energy into going to ground and not martyring himself. a persuasive argument that's not, though. ]

In May.
If I kill him in April, it'll expire before he comes back.

You could hide out until then.

[extent]

if william wants to get him in shit for leaving without permission before then, i'm willing to bet i can guess which side the city will pick

he likes me
its a month anyone can do anything for a month

[grunge]

Cohabitation wasn't one of their terms.
He's fine as long as he's not caught shacking up with another dom.

[ okay, "fine" is stretching it. he's still very much in danger just not in a legal sense. ]

You don't have to do this.
Work with me, we'll find another way.
