068 ☣ cindery, nonexistent, radiant

[Video]

[She's posting from the floor of the maintenance office, where she is on a tarp in the middle of a mess, boxes and sponges and bits of felt and ash and mutilated pens scattered all around her. She has smears of blue and black ink on her face and hands and bathrobe she's wearing - which, when she turns, is open in a deep V-wedge to keep her mostly decent without touching the red, fist-sized external heart now clutching steadily in the center of her chest. She tries to brush her hair out of her face, and adds to the ink smudges.]

If you're fighting the parasites, or demons, or whatever they are, come by the office. I made stamps with the anti-possession sigil on them. They're a little haphazard, but they'll work. Once you clear someone, stamp them. I don't want anyone getting reinfected.


[Open Spam, wibbly time through through the general throwdown arc]

[Anya is also running around exorcising people herself, knocking on doors, poking anyone she finds to see if they'll snarl or flinch. She's weary and bloody and bruised, after the first one or two, and she could probably use some backup to help fight the monsters once she forces them to manifest with the rituals Dean taught her.]


[Spam for Ben, backdated a wee bit to before the sha throwdown kicked into high gear]

[With Dean shuffled off to the kitchens, Andrew gone, and Stephen and Tig in comas, no is left in maintenance to notice Anya not turning up to work but Peter, and he won't hassle her about it. So when she wakes up to find a fresh heart tucked between and a little below her breasts, arteries and veins sliding back under the skin, the raw muscle wet and twitch, rabbit-fast with her shock, she decides that today is a good day to hide in her room and eat jerky and crackers and do nothing and see no one.

Until, of course, he comes to check on her, and her door opens for him, just like it always does.]

Spam - wibbly time, present-dated-ish

[Not long after his exorcism, Merlin reviews the network he's been neglecting, and goes down to the maintenance office for what seems like an obvious precaution. He does not want to be reinfected, thank you, and likewise anyone he's able to help while this is being cleared up.]

Anya...?

Hi.

[He crosses the threshold. First things first; she seems like the kind of person who prefers pragmatism.]

Do you have any stamps left?

[He obeys her automatically.]

Do you know if anyone else needs it? I can help.

Thank you.

[He accepts the tools and looks Anya over. She looks a bit bruised, certainly worse for wear.]

I could heal you. Maybe do something about the tiredness as well. And - I can drive those things out and kill them, if there's more out there.

I will. Just - relax for a moment.

[He comes a step closer, reaches out to gently place a hand on her shoulder.]

Purhaele.

[The spell is intended only for healing injury, and it certainly has that effect on her bruises - but Merlin's magic takes a freer form these days, guided more by intent than the simple words of a ritual. What he gives to her is the effect of rest, the benefit of a long unbroken night's sleep, something he's very much looking forward to himself.]

You're welcome.

[He won't hang around. She's busy, and he knows he will be soon, too.]

I'll take the stamp to the infirmary, make sure the others know. Will it have any effect on anyone who's already...?
