If one were to ask what Heather thought regarding her receiving her first, or possibly first set of weapons only a day after signing her Contract with Lilith, she wouldn't lie and say that she wasn't nervous about it but also excited about it when she and Viola returned to The Gates of Hell once more. Unlike the previous times however, it wasn't just the two Umbra Witches and Rodin there. A certain bloated piece of Italian scum, as Viola described the guy (being somewhat more careful with her choice of words and language due to having a more impressionable roommate). Enzo the undertaker. Who was enjoying and without a doubt adding another drink to his by now miles long tab.
"I'm just saying, Rodin, it's nice to finally be able to have some relative peace and quiet around here." Exclaimed Enzo, more to himself than Rodin, who wasn't listening to his patron in favor of apparently playing a video game on a handheld device.
"Humph. Grr." Grunted Rodin, not at all in reply to what his patron was saying, but in a mix of concentration and frustration with his game. Looking up from the game, Rodin finally noticed that the Umbra Witches had arrived. "Ah, you're here. Just in time as well. I was starting to get really tired of pretending to listen to my patron with the really long tab over there."
"So this is the infamous Enzo. Huh. He's a lot fitter than I imagined, especially when compared to uncle Vernon. Though that's not really difficult." Heather couldn't help but snark, giving the Italian in question a brief look before shrugging.
"I'm not sure whether I'm supposed to take that as a compliment or an insult."
"Yes."
"Heh. Cheeky little fucker."
"ENZO!"
"What!? You know what!? Fuggetaboutit. What's the deal with the kid anyway?"
"That's fledgling Umbra Witch to you, you overinflated, walking, beach ball!"
"That's a new one. Wait a fucking minute! SHE'S A FUCKING WITCH!?"
"What did you expect? An old hag?"
"Enough you two!" Exclaimed Rodin, having grown tired of the two's bickering, even if it had been rather amusing. "Heather, the reason you're here isn't to bicker with this… scum… it's to get your first weapon. I believe that both you and your Contractor will like it."
"Okay? Let's see it then." Nodding, Rodin reached behind the counter of the bar and placed a set of what looked like vambraces, for both the arms and legs. Looking closer at them, Heather spotted what looked like gun barrels integrated into the braces. "Hmm. Impressive. Let's find out what my Contractor thinks of them. Hope I'm doing this right. BLIORA!" The last word was practically shouted in Enochian, more specifically the word that Heather associated the most with Lilith and therefore used to call upon her Contractor, which caused Heather's black hair to rapidly extend, twirl around her body (protecting her modesty as her clothes got shredded in the process (which she either didn't notice or simply wasn't all that bothered by (outside of the breeze))) before opening a large portal behind her, out of which Lilith's upper body arose. Spotting the weapons set presented to her Contracted (and by extension her) Lilith reached for one of the braces with one of her more human-like arms and picked it up, carefully pinching the part of the set between a pair of fingernails and inspecting it before nodding in apparent approval and doing something that caused the entire weapon set to glow and crackle with Infernal energy. All while completely ignoring the explicit exclamations of surprise from Enzo. With her work finished, the Rebel Against Inhibitions returned to the depths of Inferno through the portal, causing the portal to close and making Heather's hair start wrapping, twisting and weaving itself into an outfit that covered Heather's modesty while still showing quite a lot of skin.
Heather's outfit, or Umbran Garb to be more accurate, consisted of a total of six segments which were connected together with what looked like straps of semi-elastic material. Covering Heather's chest and shoulders was a segment akin to an exercise-top, on the front of which was where Heather's Umbran Watch (a gift from Rodin, who had explained that he expected to be compensated for his troubles of getting his hands on an unbound and fully functional Umbran Watch, which wasn't an easy task, in the form of either Infernal Orbs or Halos once Heather had managed to get started as an Umbra Witch). Connected to the exercise-top-like segment via a set of 'straps' forming an upside down Y-shape in the front and a pair of 'straps' forming an X-shape in the back was a segment akin to a pair of short shorts, leaving the midriff exposed. Wrapped around her thighs were a series of 'straps' which connected the shorts-like segment the segments that were akin to a pair of form fitting but functional boots. The final two segments of the outfit resembled a pair of half-fingered gloves that connected to the exercise-top-like segment via a series of 'straps' in a criss-crossing pattern running down/up Heather's arms. Completing the overall look was something extending from the shorts-like segment that loosely resembled the tail of a stereotypical depiction of a Succubus (or the Devil (who was most likely either one of the older Infernals rather than the figure depicted in Hebrew mythology or probably fictional according to Viola, who Heather asked after browsing through The Infernal Compendium and not finding any proper reference to the Prince of Darkness)), a slim tail with a spade for a tail tip, which almost seemed to have a mind of its own as it seemed to move on its own in response to something, but what that something was was unclear. Something that was rather strange was the fact that despite the outfit being formed from Heather's hair, the hair that was on her head was mostly the same black bird's nest of a haircut from before, albeit with a few locks in the back of her head connecting to the neck portion of the exercise-top-like segment of the Umbran Garb. Suddenly feeling the urge, and giving into it, Heather rolled her neck with an expression of raw bliss on her face before taking a look at her Umbran Garb for the first time.
"Holy macaroni. I'm not sure where the new clothes came from, but frankly, I can't bring myself to care." Stated Heather to herself as she inspected her new outfit. "Not sure what to say besides that it feels nice to have an outfit I can completely call my own. Comfortable too."
"And quite stylish, possibly something more in a few years." Muttered Viola, who couldn't really keep herself from drawing comparisons to her mother. Drawing attention to herself from the others. "What? I'm just saying. Anyway, shouldn't that weapon set be stable by now?"
"Indeed." Replied Rodin, who picked up and inspected how the infusion of an Infernal's power, more specifically Lilith, had changed the weapon set. To say that the changes were somewhat drastic was a bit of an understatement. What had merely been braces for both the arms and legs with guns built into them had become a set of properly armored and armed gauntlets and boots made of Infernal steel with a reddish reptilian scale-like appearance (not too unlike the hands of Lilith's proportionally bigger arms) and built in guns. "Interesting. Allow me to introduce you to possibly one of my finest works I've ever made in a long time and your first tool for the dispatching of the forces of Paradiso and occasionally Inferno. I give you, My Red Requiem. Shouldn't take you too long to get a hang of 'em."
"Cool. Anything else I should know?"
"Yup. Thanks to your Contractor infusing some of her essence into the weapon, you have access to the technique known as Demon Masquerade, allowing you to assume a form similar to your Contractor."
"Ooh. Can't wait to try it."
