ask for advice

and ask her to come with you to murmurs party that you definitely WERENT invited to
mayhem :3

ask for advice AND gossip!

Advice and gossip are one in the same.

Also I don't think Astin was aware of the implied sexuality.

ask naamah to "dish the goss" as the kids say

I have just realized that it's "one and the same".

“Oh, I won’t keep you too long, then…” you say, trying not to sound disappointed. You squirm on the pink couch, trying to get comfortable. You feel slightly off balance with your tail shifted away in anticipation for your visit to Sallos in Earth Vermont. “I was hoping you could catch me up with what I’ve missed, while I’ve been gone.”

Naamah’s expression turns serious. Uh oh.

“How much do you know?” she asks, cautiously.

You frown. You don’t know anything.

“Okay,” Naamah says. “So, like, the who’s-dating-who would take a whole week to run down, but you probably don’t care about the whole court, so… uh.” Again, she pauses. “Eligos has been collecting lovers, that’s nothing new. He’s been seen at court with your brother Glasya-Labolas, lately, but nothing confirmed there. I’ve been a bit of a shut in lately, so I only get the cliff’s notes from Decarabia, but…”

Oh, Decarabia! That one’s definitely one of your kids. Naamah raised him, and you recall him being spoiled and dreadful.

“What else, what else…” Naamah muses. “There have been some rumors about Ornias and Satan, but I wouldn’t put too much stock in them.”

Naamah wipes the dried clay off her hands thoughtfully with a damp towel.

“And, er.”

“Yes?” you say, leaning forward. Finally, something juicy.

“...Your brother Shax had a thing with Murmur, for a while. And then Shax moved out? Murmur lost his head servant in the break-up. It was messy and embarrassing. Cause like. Imagine getting dumped for your head servant. Yikes.”

“Ew!” you yell, scrambling to your feet. “Ew! What the fuck!”

“I know, and Andras isn’t even that cute? They’re kind of shitty.”

You pace the studio, screaming every few seconds as you struggle to find something to say besides “Ew.” Murmur rebounded with your twin brother and then you found him in your house.

You note down to start a messy fight with Shax later. But for right now, you’re more bewildered than ever.

And when the going gets tough, you turn into a cat.

You hide under Naamah’s pink couch, hissing quietly to yourself.

“Marax, are you, like, okay?” Naamah asks, peering underneath.

“Call me Ouija,” you grumble.

She laughs in shock, hearing your regular voice come out of a cat, but quickly recovers herself.

“Sorry, Ouija. Are you, like, good?”

“I need advice,” you say. It’s hard to admit, but you really, really do. “I don’t know what to do.”

“Hm…” Naamah says. “Depends on if you want to rejoin court or be a loner like me. You could just chill. Hire some new servants, roleplay Elianora with me, maybe host the human culture club every month. But if you want people’s respect, that’s a little harder to come by. It’s too bad you fell out with your humans, having a human lover is very fashionable right now.”

You shrink farther back under the couch.

“Uh, but it’s fine!” Naamah continues. “Why don’t you go to a party and make waves? Get noticed again? Since it’s been so long, everyone will be talking about it, wondering if you’re any different, now. You could reinvent yourself, if you wanted to. Ooh, I could help you get dressed.”

Naamah is very excited now.

“We could go to a party together, if you want! There’s one practically every night. I wasn’t going to go, but I think Parisa is holding a pool party tonight. Oh, but Murmur might be there…”

Murmur is going to be at practically any party you attend. You have all the same friends. You scrunch yourself up under the couch and hiss.

go to a party with your friend and if you dont like it you can turn into a cat and scream about it

go to the party!! and let naamah dress you up

GO TO THE PARTY! GO TO THE PARTY! GO TO THE PARTY

"Hey, I heard Jasper was having a party sometime soon? I got an invitation, I think. Now his place, I wouldn't mind making a scene at with Murmur. That sick baby-eater or whatever it was people say he is can get fucked."

You decide to suck it up and go to the party. Naamah is right, like usual. If you don’t want to be a boring recluse, you are going to have to dress cute and show up places.

Maybe being dressed up by Naamah will raise your spirits. You have done nothing but dress up all day, but you need this. You actually start to get excited. Maybe you’ll meet somebody handsome. Maybe your aura of mystery will seduce the most handsome duke or prince or whatever at the party, and Murmur can suck it. And if it stops being fun, you’ll just be a cat.

You slink back out from under the couch.

“Did you say you’ll help me get dressed?” you ask hopefully.

By the time you are done getting dressed, it’s just about time to leave for the party. You and Naamah head out, looking like hot shit. You almost hope Murmur is at this party, but then you get a squirmy feeling in your stomach and you change your mind about that. There will be plenty of time to ruin Murmur’s life. You still have five days before his angel cocktail party.

You and Naamah ring the bell, but there is no answer. Naamah slams the giant door-knocker, but still no one answers the door.

You hear rowdy party music coming from around back, though.

You carefully step over elements of Parisa’s garden, following the sound of some truly sick violin riffs.

The music gets louder, until finally you reach the main patio.

You take a long look around, trying to pick out familiar faces. This isn’t quite your usual crowd - the demons here are probably a couple hundred years younger than you. Fewer dukes and princes, more lords and earls and stuff. And counts? Whatever, it’s fine.

It’s crowded, lots of people on the dancefloor, lots of people with drinks in their hands, and lots of people talking and laughing. You can sort of see the pool past the crowd - that might be worth checking out.

As far as people you know, there are a few.

The Marquess seems like the safe bet for socializing.

probably say hi to parisa and thank her for having you and naamah before going anywhere else?

yeah greet parisa and then say an ill advised hello to camio

while common sense tells me to check out nammahs party friend im a camio stan from HG and my one braincell is going wild for more camio content

Make yourself known to the host, man! If no new developments happen after that, go to Camio; I hear he's more of a listener than a talker, so you should be safe as long as you don't do anything TOO noteworthy in front of him. The other two candidates are just... ugh.

You lock your arm with Naamah’s. Step one to reinventing yourself: be cool as a cucumber.
“Shall we say hello to the Marquess?” you say.

“Parisaaaaaa!” Naamah yells across the patio. “Heyyyy oh my God you’re so cute!”

Parisa turns from her current conversation partner to you, as the two of you approach.

“Oh, hey Naamah,” Parisa says, cocking one hip to the side in acknowledgement of Naamah calling her cute. She takes a sip of her drink and raises her eyebrows at you, probably waiting for you to explain yourself.

“Prince Ouija Marax Hethson,” you say, dipping your head in a very charming way. “Cool party.”

Parisa gives you a curious look, and you get the feeling whatever you do and say tonight is going to make its way through the gossip mill, big time.

“Oh, thanks, it’s nothing,” Parisa says. “You guys missed the afternoon pre-party, so we are kind of transitioning into a sexier evening vibe? We might get some more people…” Parisa finishes her drink and sets it down. “Oh shit you guys need drinks. I get anxious when guests don’t have drinks.”

Parisa snaps her fingers a few times, and suddenly the house staff descends upon you. They are informally dressed, a couple of them still wet from the pool. The younger cohort can be more fast and loose with class rigidity, you have noticed. When Ornias gave Camio a title and estate a few centuries ago, that was shocking - but today, much less rare, if not as common as letting your staff get in on your pool party.

In seconds, both you and Naamah have drinks in hand, and the staff has dispersed. All except one, a tall demon you don’t recognize.

“Lord Camio wants to know if we have aloe, and if so, are we willing to share,” the demon says to Parisa.

“Oh, Naamah and, uh, Ouija. My bodyguard, Aphra,” Parisa says. But before you can say “nice to meet you,” Parisa has moved on. “Yes, there’s aloe up in my toilette, if you don’t mind.”

“Cool,” Aphra sighs, and departs into the house via sliding glass door.

“So, what brings you out of the house, Ouija?” Parisa says, giving you her full attention. “I haven’t had any news from your neck of the woods in a long time.”

You try to think of something cool and/or charming to say, and take a gulp of your drink to buy time.

definitely DON'T say anything about murmur, or about how your humans abandoned you. say something super cool about how you've been having a great time on earth, but popped down to hell to spend some time with naamah

ive been having fun on earth! humans can be very charming, even if they dont get the whole proper title thing

"I went, I saw, I tapped some ass. But now I'm ready to come home and celebrate my successful outing." If someone brings up Murmur, admit that he just wasn't the one, in a big way, and this was the most delicious way you could think of to break it off. Makes you seem unrepentant and victorious. (Come to think of it, why did you leave him at the altar?)

You keep drinking for a slightly inappropriate length of time as you think up a great list of things NOT to say.

Your internal monologue goes something like this:

Don’t tell Parisa about Murmur. Don’t say anything about Murmur. Why did you leave Murmur at the altar? Why are you thinking about Murmur? Stop thinking about Murmur! Tell her about how cool you are, because you have humans, and humans are in this season. Except you don’t have humans, actually, because they abandoned you. Don’t tell Parisa that your humans abandoned you.

You finish the glass, which means time’s up.

“Ahem,” you say. “I’ve been……...having sex. With humans. On earth. And now I’m here to visit Naamah, my friend.”

“But humans are so delicate!” Parisa exclaims, eyes aglow with extraverted energy. “I hear you really have to be careful, or their arms and legs just sort of snap off. And they don’t regrow, isn’t that dreadful? I wouldn’t leave the house if I was a human.”

“My humans weren’t all that delicate,” you mumble into your glass, forgetting it’s empty. You finally set it down. Parisa does have a point; if you hadn’t been a cat most of the time, you suppose you might have broken your humans. Having a cat form is more or less the demonic equivalent of being wrapped in bubble-wrap.

Out of the corner of your eye, you glimpse a couple of humans. Speak of the devil - or, you know what you mean. Your attention might have glazed right over them if you hadn’t been thinking of your own ex-humans back home.

“Well, I’m glad you decided to drop in during your visit to Naamah, Ouija,” Parisa chirps, ever the good hostess. “I’m going to hop in the pool, if you want to come chat more. Oh - Aphra, there you are.”

Aphra closes the sliding glass door behind her, aloe in hand. She raises her eyebrows at Parisa and stalks away, toward Lord Camio, who is distantly seated in a lounge chair by the pool.

go say hi to those humans!! ask who they’re here with! they don’t look like they just wandered in so someone probably brought them along

yeah go see the humans! or go offer to help put sunscreen on camio winks

Supporting the humans option.
