"I don't," he argued.

Lavender petted the tiny, sand colored dragon, no longer than her thumb, affectionaly.

Asura glanced over at the dragon, smiling softly. "If it drank coffee, I wonder what flavor she'd like."

"I'm guessing anything with nuts and low sugar. Probably vanilla, and she'll love honey or any kind of nectar because of her butterfly genes.", she smiled.

(ok I did)
"Wow, you know a lot about her," he said, sitting down.

Lavender shrugged. "I helped make her. Technically speaking, I'm the closest thing to a mother she has considering she carries some of my genes."

aaaand you're gone)

(sorryyy)
"Weird how that works," he said.

Lavender shrugged. “When you live in an underground genetics lab, you see stuff like this all the time.”

He frowned. "I don't. My universe is pretty boring."

“What’s it like?”

He sighed, resting his head in his hands. "Just… lots of demons everywhere. They aren't exactly intelligent beings, so it's just… not very fun."

“I see. Well, there must have been at least ONE interesting thing!”

He thought about it for a moment, scratching his stubble. "Not that I can think of. I mean, my lions were pretty cool, but being a king of unintelligent demons isn't the most entertaining thing. That's why I always like to change into my human form and life along with humans in their realms," he explained, looking away. "I'm actually in my human form now. It's a bit painful to maintain, but I'm afraid that if I revert to my natural form, I won't have enough power to turn back."

Lavender scrunched her brow. “But you’re a god. Can’t you do whatever you want?”

He shook his head. "I am, but if I'm correct, I'm being held here by a god of higher status, which means he can limit my power."

“Oh. Any idea who this Hand is?”

"Nope. I've never heard of him. Which really frustrates me, because it's difficult to escape a being that you know nothing about!"

Lavender suddenly got an idea. Any technology in here I can hack. Will that help?

He thought for a moment. Well, we'd have to find some important technology that's worth being hacked, first.

Lavender nodded. Security cameras, maybe?

Asura looked around. I don't see any security cameras. Maybe they're in the hallway? He thought to her, scratching his stubble again. Then he got an idea. Hey, you know that ghost you saw? Maybe she has some answers! We could get some security footage and talk to her.

Lavender poured maple syrup onto two waffles, sandwiching them together and taking a bite. Good idea!

Asura stood up, brushing his slacks off. I'm going to go try to find her and talk to her. He started to walk, but turned back toward her. Do you want to come with?
