Medusa · 08-23-2024, 10:35 PM

Her old friend rose to greet her, earning a return dip of The Daemon's head as the pair settled in for whatever it was Widow had come to discuss. "Medusa is doing well!" She quipped in return, then Widow got down to the matter at hand. Medusa's head tilted to the side as Widow stated that her news was about Erebos. The man had recently visited, requesting to return to Insomnia since apparently, he and Widow hadn't worked out. Though Medusa hadn't pressed for details because quite frankly, it was none of her business and she didn't really care, either. Relationships wasn't something she was familiar with beyond a familial relationship, and though she imagined Widow's and Erebos' short-lived relationship was obviously not that kind, well, suffice to say she didn't really have an opinion on the matter.

Still, she could hear the change in Widow's voice, and whatever it was, clued her in that it wasn't exactly...amicable. She sat then, as Widow began. "It's my understanding that he has rejoined Insomnia, so I feel that you must know what compelled him to do so. Assuming he hasn't told you the truth anyway, I figured it best you hear my side of the story as well." She bone-marked woman nodded, "Mhm, but he didn't say anything about what happened." She shrugged. He didn't seem like the type that was open for discussion on the matter, nor did she really care to pry, either. In fact, he had said nothing about Widow or the reasoning behind their split other than that they had parted ways. She had simply chalked it up to maybe he didn't like living in Auster or something simple like that. So she was truly curious why Widow felt the need to come all this way to tell her what the deal was.

However, she continued to listen to Widow's side. She nodded a bit at the mention of the piebald male coming onto Widow strongly. Had he? Honestly, she hadn't paid much attention nor had she really been aware of that fact. She was often too busy to pay attention to such trivial things, much less when someone had googly eyes for another. Even so, Widow hadn't gone into detail which honestly, left her confused. Okay, so...he told her to do something, she refused, and something something he decided they weren't right for one another and so he...left. Whatever it was had clearly pissed her friend off enough for her to have considered enslaving him or, as she put it, erasing him, which she could only assume was to kill him. However confusing it was for herself, she did have to chime in on the last part. "Medusa agrees, his coat would make a nice one!" She giggled before doing her best to stop.

She listened to the rest of what Widow had to say about him, and then she let silence fall between them as she considered all that Widow had said so far. Honestly, she didn't know enough about Erebos quite yet to know who he was or who he would be. Did anyone ever really know each other right off the bat and so soon? Even she herself took the time to observe and decide whether or not someone was worth trusting, and she was sure that Widow would know this about her by now. Still, she didn't quite understand what was going on between them...not that it mattered, she supposed. She had already accepted Erebos back into Insomnia, so it seemed all she could do was just use some caution and keep him away from Widow and this...Stolas...whoever the fuck that was. "Medusa Cursed him for trespassing, just like she would have done with anyone else who did that. And she curses her enemies...or those that used to be enemies." She said pointedly, referring to Widow and literally all of the other siblings she had taken upon winning Habari's crown once upon a time.

"Medusa is sorry that Widow and Erebos did not work, but he is a member of Insomnia now. Medusa would appreciate if Widow and...Stolas...did not kill him. Not yet, anyway. Not until Medusa sees for herself that he can't be trusted. But in the meantime, Medusa will make sure he knows he is not allowed near Widow or her pack, mkay?" That was about the best she could do. She wasn't really one to take sides without good reason, and at the moment, their not working out didn't really seem like a logical reason for her to not trust him. Shit happened, that she knew. She wasn't a biased creature, and in fact, she was quite the opposite. Only when someone did her dirty did she take issue with them, and despite Erebos' trespass the first time they had met, she couldn't exactly hold it against him forever. That would've made her just like Recluse when the bitch enslaved her for trespassing, accident or otherwise. She didn't know what she could say to ease Widow's mind about the matter all things considered, but it's also not like she trusted so easily, anyway. After all, it did take quite a while for her to even trust any of the former Habari members. Widow and Ghoul included. "Medusa will be careful, and she will use caution. She is not dumb. Widow knows that Medusa does not trust so fast, she knew that when it took a while for her to choose to be friends with Widow and Ghoul and Enki. Before that, we were enemies. None of Habari liked Medusa, and still Medusa trusted after all the hurt."

She breathed a sigh, wondering if she was even explaining anything right, but regardless, she hoped Widow would know what she was talking about. After all, the pair of them were enemies once upon a time whether Widow knew it or not. Medusa had been well aware that Recluse's children did not like her, and she didn't know what the reason behind that was other than Recluse's influence, or they just thought she was stupid and stinky. "Medusa will give him a chance like she gave everyone else a chance." But then she had a final question. "Also...who is Stolas?" She asked, a brow quirking up with curiosity. A friend? A family member she didn't know about? A mate? Her sidekick?? She was nosy, so of course she had to know!
