Video - Delving into the dark arts
Alright people, there has been a lot of talk about magic lately... I'd like to ask around about it. How did you get it, what can you do?
I've asked a few people about this already. General consensus seems to be it just happens randomly and when you least expect it but I want to know if it could be evoked. These books seem to think so.
[ Anthony is seen to hesitate as he reaches up over the occult store displays of jars of herbs and sage to grab a book with a Satanic looking symbol on it that his dear sweet mum, were she here, would have thrown out the nearest window. ]
This one suggests summoning a demon for powers.
[ He spoke as he flipped through the pages. ]
Make sure you chose the right demon, some are more friendly than others... prepare your request, offer something in return, perform the ritual at night. Ha! Demons hate circles, finding them offensive and insulting. I've never seen anything wrong with a circle...
[ Anthony snickered as he flipped to the next page thinking of Aziraphale and his magic circle. ]
Oh, here's a good one, light the correct incense. Different incense appeal to different demons. And apparently you need the right color candle for the demon you're trying to summon too.
[ He closed the book and looked to the selection of candles which was conveniently located under a selection of incense sticks. ]
Which would you chose if you were trying to summon yourself? Anyone know anything about these things?

[And really, that had been bad enough.] Oh, you're the gentlemen from the Garden? Elliott has spoken of you, he's been thinking of asking for a job there.
[Though considering how many pots her son had bubbling, Yotsuyu wouldn't be surprised if her boy forgot something.]
I prefer being in real estate, these days, myself, even if I'm my boss' 'office dragon.'
[She laughed at that, though!]
no subject
[ One had to look as posh as the place they worked in. ]
Elliott is a good kid, maybe too good. Doesn't he ever get into any trouble?
[ He smiles at the lady's laugh. ]
Being the Office Dragon is a compliment!
no subject
He does, though it's rare. I tried to teach him well, and to keep him away from mistakes I'd made in my ill-spent youth!
[She could tell stories, but she's not sure she really wants to, Yotsuyu is not.]
I like to think so--it is why I'm kept around, of course. One of them, at least. [She is aware that she's a pretty face, as well, and that such a thing doesn't hurt business, at the very least. But there's a brain behind that pretty face, too...]
So. Might there be other things you might need help with? [To, perhaps, get back to the proper topic.]
I can't see you as a demon, though...
no subject
Couldn't hurt to him to get into a little bit of trouble, go out have a few adventures, get some scraped knees. He's just too sweet! Boy that age should be out getting into some mischief.
[ Says the guy who at that age was all about mischief. Some would say it was a trait he had never grown out of!
As for further help... Anthony mulled that over in his mind but eventually shook the idea away.]
Nah, just helping with that Alec apartment situation would be enough. It would be a weight off my mind if we could get that place up to code.
Thanks for the offer. I really wouldn't have known where to start with that.
