Something Eternal

Yep, title stolen from Utena. No idea why. Set at the very end of the Kouma War. Ceiphied+Lei Magnus and Ceiphied+Shabranigdo. No, it's not the same thing. Bon appetit.

Something Eternal, Part V

A short walk later -- he preferred walking to teleportation whenever possible -- Lei was again knocking on Ceiphied's doors.

This time, Ceiphied's reply was immediate and succinctly worded: "FUCK OFF!"

The term 'spoilt brat' came to mind.

"Message from Mother," Lei called back, and opened the door.

Ceiphied glared at him. "Why couldn't She have sent it the usual way?"

"I didn't ask," Lei replied. "The message," he continued, holding up the envelope.

"Bring it here."

Brat.

Lei laid the envelope on the floor. "Come and get it," he told Ceiphied, and left.

The door slammed shut behind him.
