Monica is seldom very civil to Doubt. They've tussled too often. And Doubt's won too many times.nerf-dweller wrote:Well well. Things are getting very interesting. Assigned as what? A liason? A guide? A techear?
And is Monica surly because she's dealing with her Doubt, or because she's learned she's at the Apex in the Supernatural world?

And WTF? Monica's character seems to have completely changed. From pensive and sunshine to darkness and brooding with a touch of malice. When she talked to Doubt before, it was more of a sparing match, but now it's on a more somber level. Naturally the revelations she has had recently would have quite an impact, but it seems not for the better. Also, she seems to be aware of the fact her demons are walking with her now and what they are doing. During her walk to work, she seems to have taken an attitude of "just try and mess with me, I dare you!" Almost as if she is itching to be tested by someone in some way. I think her newly realized status has gone to her head. Any semblance of politeness is gone. Maybe she'll be somewhat more courteous to Tsillah once she fully realizes she's not a demon as such. I mean, Tsillah is trying to be nice to Monica. Downright subservient even.
Exactly! How many people do you know who can wake up in flames, have an unauthorized/unplanned/unexpected out of body experience, then get their heart ripped out, for good measure, by her friends just to prove a point, and still carry on with a cheerful disposition?Jay-Em wrote:@bathory
I guess Moncaos still a bit miffed about the ripping-the-heart-out-and-bursting-into-flames...thing.
She'll come around. Maybe she's -again- waiting for the next shoe to drop.

I may be quibbling a bit here... but as I read it, Doubt and the other demons are their own entities... they're vastly older than Monica and will survive after her death (assuming that she can actually die at some point). Their roles as embodiments of psychological elements seem to be jobs they've taken on, rather than being their origins...Tsillah is clearly her own entity, rather and a manifestation of Monica's fears, etc, (Doubt and company)
Maybe it's the fact that she's in De Nile about her power, but subconsciously she knows she has to come to terms with it and establish a proper control. Plus the trauma of seeing Phix pheeding in the library. Not to mention all the other betrayals and revelations and suchlike she has yet to really process. She seems to be more in psychological shock than anything else. Which would explain (but not justify) the brooding and attitude and malice.Bathorys Daughter wrote:Darn!

Her hair isn't the only thing that's grown out!jwhouk wrote:Well, I see Tsillah has grown her hair out, just like she said. Wonder if THAT will come up in conversation.
There is probably a mystical version of a locator that lets them know who belongs where.davids4250 wrote:Interesting that Doubt would not allow Specs to even get close to Monica, but had no problem with Tsillah walking right beside her. Either Doubt knows Tsillah, or knows that she is relatively "up there" in the hierarchy.

Seconding Opus, FPF, though I have a keyboard/salad bar/sneeze guard for these things. That's how I manage my expectations.Fairportfan wrote:Remember when i was using this one a while ago?Opus the Poet wrote:OK Jabberwonky, you owe me a new keyboard because of that avatar.
We also have to remember - she IS the shadow, and casts the person - not the other way 'round - so clothes, hair, figure, horns, etc., are all subject to change. It's all ectoplasm, anyway.....Dave wrote:YRC! Based on her trick of dissolving, and the fact that she's just shown Monica two significantly different forms, and looks about twenty years older than when she met Shelly and Justin, I get the feeling that her form and appearance are very much a matter of choice at any particular moment.NOTDilbert wrote:Oh, it's Tsillah!
