to see a world in a grain of sand

[kowase]

WHO: Dante, Vergil, Nero, and any visitors to the Auguries within the month of June.
WHERE: Auguries of Innocence
WHEN: Throughout June/July
WHAT: Different logs/stuff that happens at Vergil's apartment-slash-shop
WARNINGS: General sparda family stuff, they talk about demon stuff idk. there'll be a birthday party at the end of the month too.



[ A three-story building with a shop in the bottom-most floor, a sign that is overtly fancy and gilded with silver, Auguries of Innocence. In the window, there is now a smaller, just as fancy, but red glowing sign that says Opening Soon: Devil May Cry.

The second floor a storeroom filled with crates of items unsorted and damaged alike, things Vergil has collected for numerous years and hasn't finished restoring, or is just holding while not ready to sell. The floor also has a number of crafting tools in it for restoring broken items or refurbishing damaged ones.

The third floor is a minimalistic, mostly grey and silver apartment with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a study, a kitchen, a livingroom and a dining area in it. It's covered in antiques, with some weapons hanging on the wall. The furniture looks styled more for looking at than it is for sitting on, which is annoying, at best.


For the Montshs of June/July, Vergil and Dante have forcibly kidnapped Nero to live with them while he's dealing with some rather unfortunate memory issues -- and this post will be used for any threads involving the trio + any visitors while this mess goes on. ]

[ he doesn't want to think about it. The difference between Nero--Nox, and Dante. Nox was like him; born into this world and here to stay. Dante was a traveller from another world--the man could slip through his fingers, and he doesn't want to think about it.

He just wants to assure himself the man is here to stay, because what other choice was there?

No. He's betting on the man staying at his side into the future.
Not that he's ready to say such a thing aloud, yet. ]

I am sure I could give you plenty of reasons to. [ contrarian. ] ...and of all things, I would not gaslight you about this one thing in particular.
I will give you that much grace.

And not an inch more. [ because you'll take it. greedy brat.]

[ if dante has any say in it he wouldn't be going anywhere, but something deep in him knows that in the end of the day he has about as much say in the matter as a speck of dirt. the threat is always there, that he'll just vanish back to where ever he came from. that the comfort of friends, family, and loved ones will be replaced by the stench of the underworld. he doesn't talk about it, of course, because it is one of those things that does not need to be talked about.

but for now, while his feet at planted solely on kaisou's soil? he isn't going anywhere, he's staying right here at his brother's side where he belongs. where he is always meant to be. ]

You right, you totally would. [ he chuckles, cocking his head to the side slightly. ] Look at you being generous, I'm almost worried.

But I appreciate it, really. [ he will definitely take it, without any shame. ]

[kowase]

I can afford to be generous. On all days, perhaps this is the day you deserve it.

Even if you let that strange red man invite so many people into my home. [ he's not actually mad about it, he just wants to give Dante shit. As usual. ] The minute tomorrow comes, if they're still here, making noise, I will be throwing them out the window.

[ he sounds so serious about that, too.

Loathe as he is to finally let go of dante, he does. ]

...I suppose I should release you back into the party.
Before they get too suspect of us being gone so long.
