Gluttony. One of my personal favorites.

"Whatever could he be musing? asked Aflima as he peered through binoculars.

Tri-blade looked on from their relatively safe distance on the patrol vessel. The emergence of the World Serpent off the coast was a mild surprise, but he didn't seem to be assaulting the residents of the villages. To be sure, BADGE had their eyes peeled... and luckily two of the members of Realm Defenders were in the vicinity and quickly brought up to speed.

Aflima continued, "didn't he migrate to some other dimension?"

A shrug came in response. "The fella has abilities that most of us cannot fathom. I figured out some time back that migrating between dimensions and realms didn't really have any impediments in place for the likes of him... if there's something here that piques his interest, he'd find a way to check it out."

"Do we engage?" came the voice of a somewhat worried BADGE agent nearby.

"Heavens, no!" Tri-blade exclaimed. "Nobody here would pose anywhere close to a match for him.

"Besides, he's not harming anybody. Just observe the guy for a bit. Feel free to give the Avengers rep a briefing, but dear lord, nothing more."

The agent slunk away with his head down. Tri-blade shook his head at his retreating form.

"Why are people here so keen to instigate drama?" whispered Tri-blade to nobody in particular.

Wrath? Big fan.

ooc: I was thinking of some dialogue there between Tri-blade and Jormy for a couple days, apologies, it was going to be a good one

so lemme come up with something...

Tri-blade shook his head. To his right, the agent was still trembling.

"What was that about?" called Aflima.

With arms now folded, Tri-blade replied, "As you just saw, the ol' Serpent has the ability to shift forms at will. Which *really* got Captain Courageous over here into a tizzy..."

"Hey!" shouted the embarrassed agent. "It was a shock, but don't you dare insult me on BADGE's ship! You're here as OUR guest, remember that!"

Tri-blade continued, "Okay. I'm being harsh and I apologise. But there are times where you can't let 'em see you sweat, man. You practically blubbered away your agency's plan with regard to this situation."

The agent walked away, mumbling. Aflima flew to land on the boat.

Now with a whisper, Tri-blade continued, "Jormy of course is such a wild card to any situation... for good or for bad, so you have to weigh everything up when conversing with him. As it is though, the genie's out of the lamp. Nova and the others should be appraised of that development. You should fly over in case Agent Trembles stutters in his report."

Aflima nodded.

"One thing that he said that the BADGE guy didn't pick up on, is a bit concerning however. He mentioned a name that I wasn't expecting. You're familiar with him... we both are, and often times, in a negative manner. We have to brace ourselves for a possible new wild card..."

"Who?"

"Sin."
