“Of course you were,” Corbin said, another chuckle escaping his lips. He gave Matrix’s hip a quick squeeze.

Matrix coughs a few times so didnt notice the gesture. He bends over, choking slightly and bits of molten extract lands on the couch, burning holes in the cushions, "Sorry…"

Corbin glanced down at the molten substance. His hand moved to rub Matrix’s back now in a soothing way. “It’s okay, it’s best that you get all of it out of your system,” he said. What was he talking about, though? Matrix didn’t have a stomach bug or something, it was because of his heart. That had to be worse.

Matrix grabs at his chest, heaving slightly. His tail swishes irritated across the floor. His hand seems to grow darker the longer he kept it on his heart. His veins on his hand start to blacken and his fingers turn to talons

Corbin’s eyes widened slightly at the sudden transformation. “Matrix?” He asked, sitting up a bit as Orion’s ears pinned back.

Matrix chokes again. His talons digging into his skin. The black had quickly escalated upward to his elbow

Corbin let go of Matrix now, moving to see the other better. “Matrix? Are you okay?” He asked frantically. He looked down at Matrix’s hand and arm and thought that maybe if he moved his hand away from his heart, it would stop.

"Don't touch it." He snarls. His eyes had gone completely black. His feet seemed to be elongating and becoming for like animal feet. He had grit his teeth which where now fangs, "I've been away for millennia. Why now…"

Corbin’s hand flinched away at Matrix’s tone. Fear panged through him at that, and he stood up now just to put a bit of distance between them. Orion gave a soft growl.

"You're safe." Matrix growls, "For some reason the world hates me." He stands, having to stoop slightly to not bang his head on the ceiling. His skin on his legs and hand up to his knees and elbows where blackened. His tail had lengthened and the poison barb seems more deadly. His feet had elongated so it looked like dragon's legs.

Corbin’s eyes widened as Orion continued to softly growl. “Matrix, what the hell is going on?” He asked quickly.

"Don't ask…" Matrix sighs, bending down so that his head was at Corbin's height, "The underworld hates me. This happens for a day after a demon enters the human world."

Corbin’s jaw clenched as he looked away from Matrix and nodded slowly. “How long will this last? The whole day?” He asked.

"Possibly. Im not sure. Last time this happened it lasted only a few hours. That was during WW2." He tilts his head slightly, "You ok?"

Corbin nodded in understanding, and then in response. Yes, he was a bit startled by what had just happened, and he was feeling faint anxiety, but he shouldn’t. This was still just Matrix.

Matrix sighs, looking down at his blackened, taloned hands, "Sorry for the scare." He holds out his hand and sighs, "Hideous. Right?"

“It’s fine, and not hideous…” Corbin said slowly. “Just a bit different.”

"Uh huh." Matrix looks up at him disbelievingly.

(Sorry for vanishing, I needed to take a mental health break)

Corbin gave a soft huff and glanced away, running a hand through his hair. “It just startled me a bit, at first,” he grumbled.

(Oh no! Are you ok?)
"Sorry. It'll be gone in about a day." Matrix looks away, flexing his talons. The only thing that didn't form when he transformed where his sawed off horns. He taps Corbin's head for no reason

(I’m doing much better now, thanks for asking)

Corbin gave Matrix a faint smile, but it faded when he saw Matrix’s cutdown horns. He hated that that had happened to the other, that it had been his fault because he sold Matrix.

(That's good!)
Matrix sighs, "But. About your job. What are you planing on doing?"

(Yeah lol)

Corbin ran a hand through his hair in thought now. “I don’t know. I’ll have to get ready soon, I suppose.”

Matrix looks out the window then up to the clock, "Ah. Ok." He coughs into his fist and sits down on the couch

Corbin looked over at Matrix, sitting down beside him. He rested his chin against his hand giving a soft sigh.
