Generation Legacy Issue #12

Cassie smiles, more serene and calm than she'd been before. "Okay, I'll try to stay out of trouble till then." Turning to the others as she enters. "Hey guys, set up your own places, it's kinds of casual tonight."

He raised an eyebrow and moved quietly, "Glad you're back, Ms ... Cassie. So ... what's the occassion? And did you make any arrangements for desert? If not, I can whip up a batch of brownies or something quickly enough." He caught himself before he called her Ms Prophet.

He seems a bit tense for some reason, but then again, he's a hard one to be sure about. He's dressed in clothing that looks like its meant to take a beating more than anything.

"Timothy, you don't have to be so forml, I just wanted to be a bit more.. open than I've been in the past." Cassie says with a shrug. "And Brownies will befine, though there is no need to go out of our way. We can do with ice cream."

He smiled a bit at that, "Don't worry. Besides, brownies go good with ice cream. About how many you expecting?"

He paused and spoke softly, just loud enough for her to hear as he moved toward the kitchen, "Do I really want to know about what's really been going on? The hurricane, the demon clone things, the issue of who those two Elites were really after, your ... history ... do I really want to know?"

He looks concerned, and a bit frightened, "Someone seems to think I might be in danger. And nobody is giving me any details."

 

[KaintheSeeker]

Cassie nods as she checks the bubbling melody on the stove, responding at the same level as Timothy. "I would say it was quite clear that we are all in danger. And on that note I am one of the least safe people to be around, me and Ryan."

He nodded and began to make up a quick batch of brownies, "I see. Does this have anything to do with your ... uh ... unusual history? Jun Min mentioned some of it, not that it makes any sense to me. But then again, my own abilities don't make sense to me, so go figure. That and I'm still pondering why Chaos spend an hour discussing the need for chaos with me. I hope he was just messing with my mind and bored."

 

[KaintheSeeker]

"It's like this, I wouldn't trust everything that Chaos says, he's going to try and manipulate things. what he says is colored by his own goals. For example, showing me what the future would be. It was to bring home what? That when Overseer arrives the world would be torn apart? I don't know. He's definitely pursuing his own..." She stops and stares off into space for a bit.

He raised an eyebrow, "What? Oh, and I never said I agreed with him, he plucked out tidbits from my head that I'd rather stayed there. We discussed the Chaos Theory, nothing more. I espoused the idealogy that negative chaos was undesired and should be prevented, not that chaos itself was undesired. Chaos can have a positive result, if one can guide it carefully."

 

[KaintheSeeker]

"If, you were the reprensentation of Chaos, unmetered untamed change in a physical form, would you be happy to be fettered by the representation of Law and Order?" Cassie asks curiously. "I mean between Overseer and Chaos there existed a balanced.." Her voice trails off as she considers the implications. Could the most physically vocal and present of the Eternals be the one who slew Hope? All in the effort to sway his own hold on reality and gain power. Only to have things turn against him?

He raised an eyebrow, some chocolate dripping from a spoon, the idea was scary, but fascinating at the same time, "If I were the living representation of Chaos, I think I would resent the idea of being stuck in a non-malleable form. And if the form was forced on me by someone else, regardless of the reason, I'd probably be wanting to pay them back for what they did. Though if I saw a chance ... " his face blanches as the logical conclusion comes to mind, and he drops the spoon, only for it to be caught by something and slowly drift into the bowl he was working on, "Cassie, tell me, if Chaos is after what I'm guessing he's after, how do you stop the physical manifestation of an aspect of reality without destroying said aspect in the process? Without chaos, our world would be unable to change. Ever. How do you even hope to try and stop him without having the power of Order at your disposal? And are you saying that Overseer might be the physical manifestation of Order?"

 

[KaintheSeeker]

"Chaos isn't stuck in any form, but I am saying.. what if he resented his power and range being curtail by another? Would he try to eliminate them? Directly or indirectly?" Cassie asks, shrugging as she finishes laying out the cornbread and starting the rice. "I have been told that Overseer was the representation of Order."
