They more or less ran the Black Order. You were given a job and you were expected to do it as quickly and quietly as possible. Us exorcists were the ones who were supposed to save the world and keep it rid of evil… or something like that. It's all pretty complicated once you join us and figure out what it's all really about. It becomes more than "just a job;" more than just "saving the world."
It was my job, my duty as an exorcist to complete these missions, and it was better to do it with a smile. Nothing was ever easy, but with a Master like mine your choices were pretty limited. So I did, and I'll admit tha

CuriositySometimes I look at you and wonder.Curiosity by ~Euriella
I see you walking by or I'll come over and say hello. I stare politely as you speak, noting the way you react when or don't react to your own words or my responses.

Running in Place: PrologueSilence surrounded us as I stood before the front door. Last night taught us both a lesson I was sure we wouldn't forget for a long while.
