Room 518/520, Wednesday Afternoon

[demonbelthazor]

With no workshops that day, Bel busied himself researching mermaids. Most of what he found on the web was just fluff. Reading a few demomic sites he still had access to, however, gave him the information he was looking for. The Sea Hag. Allegedly she was a demon with the power to transform mermaids into humans, but she would only do so for a price. Fine. He'd find her and pay it.

The only question was how to find her.

[open if anyone cares to console Bel about his girlfriend being sushi (or any other reason)]

Yes, there's a silent and totally understood "don't" there

Pippi slugged him in the arm, kinda harder then she normally would because Bel was a demon.

"Don't be stupid. She's a mermaid, she's not dying."

"Ow!" Bel said, rubbing his arm, more in indignity than in pain. "You don't understand. She has a destiny. She's supposed to be a witch and protect innocents with her sisters. Plus as a mermaid she won't be Phoebe any more. She won't love her sisters. She won't love anyone. She'll just collect sea shells and play in the ocean."

"Yeah, and then she snaps out of it finding out you traded away your soul to fix the problem and what will that do to her? Who will be around to do stupid protective crap when she's back and you're gone?"

[demonbelthazor]

"I can't let her stay a mermaid!" Bel protested. "I gotta do whatever I can!"

[ooc: running home now...back in a bit!]

"I'm not saying to let her stay a mermaid." she said. "I'm just saying work smarter rather then harder."

[demonbelthazor]

"So what's the smart thing to do then?" Bel said helplessly.

"Just be careful okay?" Pippi said. "If you're gonna go deal with the Sea Hag, try not to go alone."

[demonbelthazor]

Bel nodded. "I'll let you know what's up," he said.

He may have been lying.

"It doesn't need to be me." she said nodding. "But I'm there if you want."

He probably was, but she had to make the effort.

[demonbelthazor]

"Thanks," Bel said. "I really mean that."
