[Millenia's voice is loud and clear as the signal connects and the post begins! Sounds like she's flying, those big ol' leathery wings beating at the air. Could be pretty high up, too, because the noise of the town seems to be far, far away.]

Let me see... Metal for Tommy, that was it, wasn't it, Angel-pie? I don't see why we can't ransack some old buildings on the lower level, but hey! I'm not really complaining, this is fun!

So, where are ya, huh? You fly slow, love!

[She laughs, doing playful acrobatics in the sky. Dips, twirls, dives... if you look up, you might see her while she's waiting for Angeal.]

Mm-mmm... and other matters, can't forget that! Link, sweetums, we have work to do when I get back. Looove is in the air, or at least, it will be~!

And my condolences go out to all you sufferin' the switcheroo right now, aha~!

[She stops her frolicking long enough to glance down at the town. A thoughtful hum, and then, shouting at the top of her silly little head...]

RIQIS DARLING, SASUSWEETIE, AARON DUMPLING, LOZ HONEY, KARASU CUTIE, MILLIE LOVES YOU GUYS~! ♥

[End transmission.]

Lady Zelda, is it? I'm gonna come and see you. Big dumb jerk took one hell of a chunk out of my wing, and it's smarting something hideous... Be a doll, and when I get there, hurl some of your healing hocus pocus my way, okay?

...And if anyone knows how to fix high heeled boots or crossbows, I'd be eternally grateful.

At least the big dumb lug didn't get to my earrings! These puppies are one of a kind...!

[CRASH-CLANG! The sound of metal screaming, crunching, and then a vicious WHOOSH, like a sharp and heavy object cutting through the air. It's followed by pin-heeled footsteps, quick ones, and a woman's loud shriek. Several cutting, whizzing noises follow, like projectiles being fired, and then a sickening CRUNCH... as something is sent flying, splintered into who knows how many pieces.]

YOU SON OF A--THAT WAS MY CROSSBOW!

[Millenia seems to be on the verge of saying more, but cuts off with a loud hiss and a grunt. Seemingly she is struck, causing several seconds of static to ensue, but the damage isn't too severe. You can practically hear her teeth grinding in fury, those leathery demon wings whipping back and launching herself into the air.]

I'll teach you to keep yer bloody paws off, buster! Try THIS on for si... H-HEY!!!

[Cover your ears, ladies and gents, as the following scream is rather ear piercing! At least until there's a brutal THUD that silences it. Imagine a fleshy woman's body hitting the thick trunk of a tree. All that can be heard for a moment thereafter is the scraping of metal through dirt... and heavy footsteps drawing closer to the microphone. After another fleeting second Millenia can be heard... One heel clicks as she stands. The other foot makes something of a clapping sound.]

...MY BOOTS!! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THESE THINGS ARE WORTH!!?

ALL RIGHT, THAT DOES IT, TRIANGLE-HEAD...!!!

[Sounds like smoldering fire, now... If you look up to the plate above, you might see a star-bright glow through one of the large cracks. Millenia's high-pitched and nutty laughter echoes over the microphone, the flames from some attack or another licking furiously all around and creating several crackling and hissing sounds. She seems confident, huffing softly after a moment. The glow above dies down and flickers out.]

Mmm-mmm... deep-fried goodness~! Now that's what I'm talkin' abou--

--huh? Hey, no way... you can't have survived that! You just can't ha--

[The feed cuts off abruptly with a roar of static, and then dead silence...]

Mou~ here again, and back to square one... just great.

At least I have my powers, and at least I know Ryudo's safe... but, if you ask me, this was absolute lousy timing!

Really, there's this thing, and it's called manners, and I know you humans are really awful at it, and in my experiences gods are no better, but come on! When a girl's with a guy she likes, you don't wrench her away from him!

Just thinking about that twit moving in on my man while I'm not there makes my skin crawl...

Oh, Ryudo, my love...!

If you know what's good for you, buddy, you'd better make sure Elena keeps her little mitts OFF of you, got it?!

What's the use? It's not like you guys can even hear me from all the way out here in this tacky dump...

Ryudo, Elena... Damn it, I miss you guys.

I wonder if you two would mind that I'm adopting two kitties? I know that Roan would like the idea~!

Oh! Speaking of adoption... Sasusweetie! I know you're out there somewhere, and you really ought to help me find a place to live! A girl of my high class can't occupy just any building, and most of the ones around here are kind of hideous and untrustworthy looking, besides!

You'd better hurry, too... because those two little cats will need someplace safe, warm and cozy to sleep!

Mama's counting on you, sweetums~! ♥

...K-Kuro...nue-sama?

Oh no... no, no... this won't do. All this obvious talk of naughty things. It is not amusing. Really, hasn't anyone heard of the sanctity of marriage?

Come to think of it... what am I wearing? This is awful, really awful. My... my breasts are nearly popping out!

Ah... Kuronue-sama... please, a little assistance? I need to get back home, and I just can't seem to walk in these darn boots. Who invented heels anyways? And for that matter... this headdress... it weighs a ton, I can't keep my balance.

This is so indecent... oh, Kuronue-sama... close your eyes when you come and fetch me... please, I don't want to disturb you with this improper attire...!

Well, I'm certainly glad that whole Christmas shebang is over and done with, really, what a chaotic mess of nonsense gift-giving. There's a time for generocity, people, and it shouldn't just be limited to one day of the year, am I right~? ♥

So... in declaration of Christmas-hating... I haven't gotten anyone anything at all! I'm sure that doesn't come as much of a surprise for some of you, but Kuronue, D, Sasuke... and my ickle darling babies... I'll make it up to all of you by learning how to cook and making a feast for you all to dive into!

In the meantime... happy holidays and all that jazz, loves~!

Oh, and KUROBEAR, I promised D a dance at the ball, all right? So don't get upset if I abandon you briefly to cavort with him. It won't be all night, and that'll give you time to do whatever it is you do... ah, flirt with fancies, hmmm~? ^_^

Wh-what's going on?!

Sasuke, wherever you are, don't you dare go outside right now, it's a madhouse! I... I don't want to see anything bad happen to you, do you understand me?! And if you even think about disobeying me, I'll tan your backside black and blue!! Please... be all right, precious... please...

Kuronue! I'm coming over to see you!

I... I'm worried. I want to make sure you and Shura and the others are all okay. Keep watch! I don't want to get smooshed before I arrive! ♥
