Stolas says it'll be a pleasant surprise, and Blitzo hopes that's the case, but he has his doubts. Still, when Stolas asks him to promise to come next time he asks to see him, his mind goes to the fact that he didn't come when Stolas was taken by Striker, and he owes him this. Besides, he won't be able to stop being anxious about what this is all about until it's all resolved.
Hearing the promise eased the owl somewhat and he relaxed back into the pillow. Good. This was important. Hopefully soon he would have the answers to give Blitzø. Give them both some closure on the his chapter between them, however things may turn.
"Thank you..." A small tired smile crept back on his face. "... for coming to see me that is. It was nice to see you, even if it was for a little bit."
"What? Miserable? Oh Satan, no. I cherish the time we spend together."
Not a lie. What was the alternative? Being alone in that massive palace. Sure, he had Via when his harpy of a wife didn't steal her away just to make him suffer. Blitzø was... he made him get out to see places of Hell he never dared to go. Went to the surface even! And even now, as his heart was breaking...
"I just wish it was under better circumstances..."
The talking, though...sure, Stolas might say he enjoys their time together, but...well, look at how shit this conversation went. And their time at Ozzie's.
"...I just meant...I mean, you were just..."
Crying. Stolas was crying because Blitzo made him feel worse than all his injuries did.
Another full moon came and went before the prince was released from the hospital. After the incident, Stolas had heard nothing from Blitzø. Not that he tried to reach out to him during his stay, aside from sending him a quickie upon his release day. Other than that, the owl kept radio silent. For one, the imp was a busy man and he did come to see him once. And second, apart of him feared that he would lose his nerve on what had to be done. It felt like time was crawling as the deal with Ozzie drew near.
The night before the second full moon finally arrived marking his appointment with the Denzin of Lust. If all goes well, he would be able to text Blitzø the next day to met up. It had been forever since they shared their special evenings together. Little did the goeita know that the next 24 hours were going to be nothing like he expected.
A deal had been struck.
Returning the next evening back to his palace the first things Stolas did was place the small velvet drawstring pouch on his nightstand before bee-lining to the shower. His finery and feathers were a mess. Soaking in the tub until his talons even pruned, the goetia crawled out to dry himself avoiding looking at himself in the mirror. Heading back to his room he pulled out something nice to wear as he reached for his Hellphone to send Blitzø a text.
Good evening Blitz. Sorry for the late notice but I'm ready to make good on that promise. If you can, please come tonight.
That's his only response before he gets the book and heads to Stolas, but that's a pretty typical Blitzo text. He's nervous, wondering what Stolas could want. He knows after everything they'd talked about, it's probably not the usual 'deal with the book', but he's wondering what this will be. It's not long before Blitzo shows up, climbing up to the balcony with the book clenched in his teeth because he's Blitzo and he can't just use the door like a normal person.
Right about the time Blitzø was crawling up the balcony, he could see Stolas through the stained glass window. The great owl was perched on the edge of his bed with his head bowed to stare into his lap. But hearing claws skittering over stone, the goetia snapped to attention. Seeing a flash of red flopped over the railing Stolas stood up to open the glass doors.
"Always with the grand entrances." Stolas said with a small chuckling hoot. "Thank you for coming on such short notice. Uhm... Please, come in. Take a seat."
Stepping to one side, Stolas gave Blitz a wide berth as he gestured to the long couch by his bookshelves.
