Thread: Love can bite deeper than any beast or blade... ((Me x Dragonsfoot))

Thomas nodded, I'd agree with you. But you're forgetting a major thing. First of all, and arguably most important, we won't be choosing the battle ground. The Sisters are hunting demigods. Going after kids, doing random quests. We'll have to hit them as quick as we can. Also odds are we'll be in a crowded city, not the middle of no where. Theirs also a very good chance, given our age and power they'll see us before we can see them. Thomas seemed to think, Also, while they do sort of have their natural version's weakness, it's weird. For example, when I fought the Nemean lion, I tried to deafen it. I used an air horn, and it worked, but the Lion's hearing was back to normal while my ears were still ringing. All monster heal fast, but re-generators heal so fast your weapon can get stuck in them. Looking at them he said, The second and most major issue, the sister's aren't stupid. Remember, we aren't hunting big snakes. We're hunting three women, who have a kill number that would make serial killers say Damn. Most monsters are a bit Disconnected, but they aren't dumb. I've found it's best to assume a monster is twice as smart as you are. If your wrong great, but no one ever got their throat ripped out because they thought a monster was too strong. He blinked, Well that's not true, one of my sisters one time dropped her sword and shield and tried to run away from a naga, she made it 6 steps before she was ripped in half. But you get my point. Thomas pulled his coat off, and tossed it into the bed, his a simple polo shirt joining it. The sight of his chest was horrendous. Oh it was muscular and firm in all the ways women enjoyed. But their wasn't two square inches that didn't have a scar Some were horrendous and looked like burns, in other places the flesh looked like melted candle wax. Still in other their were sharp almost scalpel like marks. He had teeth marks that were too big for any dog on his right upper arm, and large dog sized ones along his left arm. Jessie wasn't a favored of Athena, so she had been given a minimum of quests, and most were relatively safe and simple. Alyissa had been off being Muggle. Thomas's body was the body of a Favored son, one who went on the sort of quests that got you fame, or added you to a corpse pile. He also had six tattoos, on his back were grecian characters, ones that if one read would reveal a Whose who of monsters. Presumably the name of every Names monster Thomas had killed. Some with marks beside them. The Nemian lion had three marks next to it, the minotaur four, the tat ran from his shoulder blades to his waist. Over his heart was the symbol for Aphrodite. On the other side in ornate scrawl was Love's Bitch. On the inside of his right arm were a half a dozen names, human names some with check marks, two without. On his right upper arm, the ghost busters symbol. And on the back of his right hand a striking cobra. Thomas chuckled, I figure I'm going to die, might as well make sure whatever gets me, know what tried before. He gestured towards his inner arm tattoo, The friends, lovers, whatever I've lost over the years. If their name has a check mark next to it, I paid the fucker back. After this little hunt, I'll have added another check mark, and two names to my back, or be dead. Thomas lid on a skin tight black shirt, then a shirt that glittered in the light Thomas spoke, A gorgon skin, it's supposed to turn any fang from it, and neutralize any venom. Since we're going after the mothers of all gorgons I don't know if it will work, but no reason not to hope right? Then he pulled on a chain mail shirt, and finally a cotton long sleeved shirt. Then a pendant that had Aphrodite's symbol on it. Next his new gloves and then his coat. He looked at them, You two might want to go get ready. We have a two day drive to get to Teas, maybe a few hours if we cheat, but we can talk then. Oh, and you might want to tell the sons and daughters of Hermes not to sell your stuff for so long. I typically tell them four months, if I'm not back by then I won't need any of it.
