Woah. So we are her nephew in law? Or was I guess.

>>42671624

It's not only about rage an revenge, but also about Dwight. Well, and Safi, because having to live in fear just isn't right.

>>42671624
>[ ] Stay

Also, text Jessica what we are getting into.

My heart is pounding. I been waiting for the thread ever since the flashback was posted. I am ready! Let's do this!

>>42671624
>[ ] Stay
This motherfucker is Glutton.
This is why Tyrant wanted him dead.
Safi is an artist, remember? She's Witch, I'm sure.

Internalize this epiphany, though. If he doesn't know, keep it that way.

>>42671834
That might be rather good idea. At least there'll be somebody to scratch our remains from the floor in the worst case.

>>42671736
Actually... We would be Sarah's uncle.

>>42671871
That would make Dwight Builder then.

>>42671834
Yea, we should probably do that.

>writing

>>42671871
Like the Traitor/Tasha aha! Moment. Forced contestants after being stuck with him for 10 years... Time for anger.

>>42671899
That goes without saying, yeah.

Wait a minute, wasn't there a rule where champions can't fight each other outside of bloodmoon?

Also, with that flashback I have gone from 90% sure that Yui is Traitor to 100% sure. Boss has been shown to likely have aquamancy has an affinity and with Yui's fire that mean that Yui and Boss are Traitor and Smith. We need a talk with Yui sometime soon because she mentioned when we have that one get together that she had something to say to us.

>>42671980
We need to call our teacher NOW! We can't kill harvey or fight here, but she sure as hell can!

>>42671980
>“Because interference outside the Arena is forbidden” She says. “The identity protection is just another layer on top of that”
>“If you kill another champion outside of the Arena, you are disqualified” She says.

So if we're one soul with Saif does that mean we need to stick around her? It can't be good for you.. to be separate form your own soul.

>>42671995
Doesn't that mean he can't fight us?

>>42672001
You can't kill each other, you can still fight most likely.

>>42672018
>>42672001
He can hold them ransom, we need to get him killed through non-direct means, death by magically empowered lynch mob/hit squad/teacher shouldn't trip the system.

>>42672034
*Cough* Jessica *Cough*

>>42671980
They can't KILL each other. The sick thing is that we don't know what Harvey does to them when he's angry. But... if he doesn't know we're Guardian, then we can keep that little nugget a surprise.

>>42671624
>>[ ] Go
GO TO OUR FUCKING MENTOR! SHE CAN USE HER MAGICAL BATPHONE TO GET HELP HERE ASAP!

We'll need to talk to Smith and Traitor next Blood Moon, whilst specifically aiming for Glutton.

>>42672058
Wait a minute, we can come back, Harvey can't. We can get ourselves killed the first time, revive with the mask, and then kill him since he is disqualified!

Just DON'T tell Safi who we're texting.

>>42672102
Doesn't work like that. A perma death gets him disqualified.

>>42672102
I think the Moon takes that into account. He needs to ACTUALLY kill us to get disqualified.

>>42672086
Why not talk to them before the next Blood Moon. Yui and Boss are not that hard to contact. Hell we don't even need to open with Blood Moon stuff. Just give a call to Yui to talk about personal stuff, mention we got our memories back, and then ask her if she a mage, then open up with asking her if she knows about the blood moon. She reveals she is traitor, and then we talk about an alliance. Bam!

You stand up and start trying to catch your breath.

"Like. Fucking. Hell" You say. "If he's coming here, I'm damn well staying"
"Why?" She asks.
"You know why" You say. "If he comes here, he saves me the trouble of going to him"

You feel the anger, but you also feel fear. You're a fighter, yes. But this guy is a mage. Who knows what kinds of tricks he's got?

But you have backup that he doesn't know about...

[Jessica]>I need backup. Behind the school. The private area

You put your phone back away and turn back to Safi, only to see her staring blankly. You don't feel your connection anymore.

"Well what do we have here?" Harvey asks. "A little reunion?"

We need to think, and stall.

>>42672231
We can't kill him, guy. He is a champion, we can get disqualified.

>>42672231
Disqualified. We can't kill him anon. Not here anyway.

>>42672152
>>[ ] That was quick
This scumbag backs off now, and we might not curb stomp his head in.

>>42672231
Didn't you fucking read anything in this thread? In this quest?

If we punch him.. can he mind fuck us.. again?

Is the mind fucking like a pre-existing condition?

>>42672305
The only reason we got mind fucked was the barrier, the mind magic he tried to use had no affect on Saif 10 years ago.

>writing

>>42672305
Because Saif awakened before the brainwashing took hold, Harvey likely can't do it to him. He could make Dwight and Safi attack us, though.

Smiley, if the Dietrichs are german, and the Beauments are french, then what about the Harts? Are they british? American?

Suppress the urge. Turn, don't punch.

"I want my sister back" You say.
"YOUR sister?" He asks.
"MY sister" You reply.

He chuckles. "There's a bit of a discrepancy there. In the possessive" He says.

Getting difficult...

"Safi, of the two men here, to which do you belong?" He asks.
"You" She says.
"See?" He asks.
"Why don't you set her free and ask her that again?" You ask.

"Why?" He asks, like it's a stupid question. "Why would I? That's the beauty of this, my friend: I don't have to"

>[ ] I'm not your friend

>[ ] That isn't why

>>42672471

I got one more dialogue option in me before I think Saif would just fucking punch him.

>>42672471
>[ ] That isn't why

>>42672471
>[ ] I'm not your friend
Stall.

>>42672471
>[ ] That isn't why

You know she'd tell you to go fuck yourself

>>42672471
>>[ ] That isn't why

Remember guys, all well and good to be pissed and show him we're pissed, but he's just looking for an excuse to sick Safi on us.

>>42672572
Yep, best thing to do is wait for Jessica, she would have a better idea of how to handle this.

>writing

>of the two men here, to which do you belong?
I REALLY don't wanna think about it... But... What if he... Has his way with her?

>>42672686
Damnit now you got me thinking about it. We kill him harder.

"That's a damn lie and you know it" You say.

"Excuse me?" He asks.
"You won't do it because you know damn well what she'd say" You say. "You ask who she belongs to, she'd tell you to take your god damn ownership and shove it up your ass"

You can see rage bubbling beneath the surface of Harvey's facade.

Good. Let him know how you feel.

He takes a step forward, and Safi gets between the two of you.

"I apologize for my insolence, but that would be unwise" She says.
He regards her with a look of condescension. "And why is that?" He asks.
"Because we shared thoughts" She says. "Saif is the Guardian"

He looks at you, and cracks up.

"Oh... oh that is rich" He says, then he starts laughing like a madman.
"Is something wrong, master?" Safi asks.
"No, nothing is wrong. It's just..." He says. "I don't even have to kill you"

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" You ask.
"Well... how to put this?" He asks, before stroking Safi's cheek. "How hard would it be on you if your beloved sister were to suddenly disappear?"

"She isn't..." You say.
"She is" Harvey replies. "As are you and I. We are all champions, though not all of us are created equal"

>[1/2]

>>42672686
Truly, he'd be a pig of the highest fucking order.

Shit...

>>42672800
>>42672806
SAY IT. HE'S THE PIG.

"Carrying on. All I have to do is send Safi into the Arena. Every. Night" He says. "I wouldn't have to kill you. Eventually someone would do it for me"

"You sound so sure about that" You say.
"Well, even if none of those other fools can finish the job, when Sunday rolls around how much strength do you think you'll have left?" He asks.

"I'll have enough" You say.
"Will you?" He asks.

No spitting. He'll just do something awful to Safi in retaliation.

>>42673049
This.

>Jessica gets here
>He mind fucks her too

Jessica come in,

"What the hell did I teached about not poking your nose where it doesn't belong!"

>writing

You gently push past Safi and get in Harvey's face.

"I'll keep some in store" You say. "Because you WILL have to come and play. Whether it's tonight, or tomorrow, or Sunday. And you know what? I'll be waiting for you. I'll be hunting you. You can call as many thralls to bear as you've got. They won't save you"

"You sound so sure" He says.
"Well, there's one other thing" You say. "I have more friends than you do"

"I doubt that" He says.
"Slaves are not friends" You say.

He bites back his anger, and smiles.

"Then I have no reason to treat them as such" He says. "Come along, Safi. You and Dwight seem to be in need of some time off"

He turns away from you and walks away, and Safi follows without a word.

"If you put one finger on her..." You say.
"That's the beauty of this, chuckle fuck" He says. "I won't have to. Her fingers will be more than enough"

>[1/2]

We need to get in contact with Yui now!

>>42673342
>JESSICA FUCKING SERIOUSLY HOLY SHIT.

Phone stealing whores are bad.

But sister stealing whores are degenerates of the highest order.

>>42673381
Eh she wouldn't have been much help. She can't just kill him at school.

>>42673342
We're not allowed to kill harvey, theres no statement about knocking him out cold, giving him budget dental surgery, or tying him in a cellar. Or causing him to get killed by conventional means (random acts of violence, death by lynch mob, death by suddenly awakened slaves, death by divine retribution.)

I'm sorry everybody. You can all call me stupid if you want. But who is who?

We're Guardian.

Yui is Traitor.

This guy, Dwight and Safi are Tyrant and company.

Or are they glutton and company.

>>42673439
Glutton and Co.

I think. Why are we sure he is Glutton again?

You try to calm yourself to no avail.

You can't seem to catch your breath, or stop shaking.

"I... am going... to fucking MURDER THAT SON OF A BITCH" You shout, as you force mana into your hand and slam it into the ground. It leaves a nice crater in the pavement that causes the ground to crack and buckle around it.

You feel better now, but not by much.

You doubt that this feeling will go away anytime soon. Not until you can stick that son of a bitch with as many sharp objects as you can carry.

And you have unlimited storage in the archive, so it might take a while.

"So, what. You fighting the ground?" Jessica asks.

>[ ] Where the hell were you?

>>42673381
I'm worried her reply will be something like

Tyrant wanted Glutton BAD. I'm guessing magic slavery was the reason.

Plus, I'm pretty sure Tyrant is a chick.

>>42673473
>[ ] Skip the anger, get to business

We need to get in contact with Yui ASAP to confirm our suspicions.

>>42673473
>>[ ] Skip the anger, get to business

>>42673473

>[ ] Where the hell were you?

>>42673494
Safi has artist talents making her most likely to be the Witch.

>>42673473
>>[ ] Skip the anger, get to business

Harvey's a champion. My sister who is also Safi is a champion. Dwight's a champion. My adopted sister's a champion. The walls are made out of champions.

>>42673473
Skip the anger

I'm all for getting to business, but, seriously, frustration needs to be shown.

>>42673581
It was, with a crater.

>>42673581
I mean, I understand being frustrated. BUt how was Jessica supposed to be prepared when we did this whole Safi unlocking bullshit half cocked without telling anybody. I know if my friend texted me right now he needed help in his magic fight, it would take me at least 20 minutes to show up.

>>42673473
>[ ] Other
"I remember everything now every single detail, my sister was" start to tear up a bit "within hands reach and I didn't even know because of that piece of shit!"
"Your husband is my brother too, I have a gut feeling he did something to him"
>[ ] Get down to business

>>42673581
Seriously, he makes her fight and QUITE POSSIBLY rapes her.

And he just WALKED.

>>42673523
Also Boss is likely a champion and I wouldn't be surprised if Claire and Abigail are as well because at this point it seems like the world is trying to get me to kill everyone I know.

>>42673638
While Safi is like that, she is basically a hostage. If we can catch him alone I am about breaking every bone in his body and leaving him in a cellar until he gets disqualified. Then we kill him.

>writing

Let's stalk the little shit and beat him just before the arena. Then we go inside, search the most fucked up, and just plainly kill him.
Who with me?

>>42673670
I'd rather just kill him in the arena. For the entire time we've been unaware of our past we haven't been able to prepare ourselves for anything. Harvey has us outgunned, outmanned and out skilled everywhere but the arena. I'd like to not get us arrested or jessica killed if we can avoid it. Its time to start murdering people in the arena. Except Dwight of course. (And Safi, Yui, The Boss)

>>42673638
Yes, but we can't hurt him without him getting Safi in the mix. However if he sends Safi and Dwight in alone that gives us the opportunity to manage to break whatever magic he has them under.

>>42673733
Pretty sure killing him is the only way to break it.

>>42673706
Ok we get Boss and Yui on our side. We fight Glutton's team together but have them tie up Witch and Builder while we go after Glutton cause you know he would force Safi or Dwight to take a fatal blow for him if they weren't occupied.

I just hope Smiley keeps his word to kill off some close friends and siblings, the emotional and dark parts.

>>42673794
Glutton likely won't show up until Sunday. I believe that is what he is implying.

>>42673812
I believe Smiley said we have the possibility for us to save everyone but won't hold back the punches if we fuck up.

>>42673820
>>42673794
Which means every night we have to fight Dwight and Safi most like. Make sure nobody ELSE kills them because other champions are just playing the game. And then after a week of straight fighting, Harvey has to show up. We need to keep dwight and safi occupied and then boom, kill harvey, then quickly get dwight and safi to surrender to us so we can get their magic powers

>>42673847
This is going to be intense. We should probably skip school for this. We need all the rest we can get.

"Where the hell where you?" You ask. "You know what? Nope. Not the time. More important things that being mad"

"Okay,what has you so riled up?" She asks.
"Harvey" You say. "That no good, slave driving piece of human GARBAGE"

You slam your fist into the wall this time, un-strengthened. It hurts like hell.

"What happened?" She asks.
"I was with Safi in Physics class, and we got to talking about this dream we had... so we came here, and I got this idea to connect with her..." You say, feeling yourself tearing up.

"You did wha--!"
"Don't. Not yet" You say. "So I did, and I... I remember everything now. My home, my family, how I got here..."
"You got that from Safi?" She asks.
"We're twins" You say. "One of soul. The Harts... they had her enslaved. They still do"

"Oh jesus..." She says.
"That's not it" You say. "They're champions, both of them. I have nothing concrete yet, but I think that they're the Glutton's team, along with Dwight"

"So you'll have to fight your sister..." She says.
"Still not done" You say. "Harvey is sending Safi into the arena alone, because he knows that I'll go in after her..."

"Will you?"

By the way, I'm your husband's brother. The reason he hated slavery, us. If he died, it might have been trying to rescue us and Harvey might have been the one to kill him. That's right, get pissed. Make it personal. We're killing this sunnuvabitch.

>>42673926
>[ ] Absolutely

Also I just thought of something. Last thread Jessica was complaining of feeling tired becuase of drained magic reserves. So because her magic was low, she used magic to open the door. What?

>>42674007
Harvey was a kid, remember. It was probably Harvey's dad who killed him.

We're related to your husband by the way.

Michael make sure we don't do anything stupid in the next hour or two.

>>42674294
Got it.

"What choice do I have?" You ask. "It's either I protect her, or she dies"
"You might die" She says.

"I probably will" You say. "I can walk it off"
Jessica nods. "Alright, I'm going to need you to tell me the whole story. Later" She says. "I had to leave my class to come out here, and you... I think that you should either go home, or go to the warehouse"

"I'm fine" You say.
"Hold your hands out flat" She says.

You roll your eyes and do as she says, and find that you can't keep them from shaking.

"Okay, so I might be a little... off..." You say.
"A little?" She asks. "I should sell you to the hardware store as a paint shaker"
"It's not that bad" You say.
"Go home, or go to the warehouse" She says. "You're in no condition for anything right now"

We should text Yui about talking. Tell her that we got our memories back, use that as a segway to finding out she is Traitor. We've gotten a mountain of clues to link her to that.

>>42674479
After combat training we should have her and Boss meet up at the cafe. Close the place for the night and have a talk.

>writing

>>42674501
Yeah, this is good.

You sigh. She's right. "You're right" You say. "You're right... I think I do need a break. I'll head home for now"

"Then go take one" She says, gently pulling you into a hug and kissing your forehead. "I'll be over as soon as the bell rings, so stay put. Maybe I'll see if I can bring Claire around too"

"No. As much as I like her, I don't have time to waste. You get to the apartment, and then we go straight to the warehouse" You say. "Right now I can't use half the shit in the archive. That has to change"

"You're right" She says, kissing you on the forehead again and rubbing your back. "Don't worry, it'll be okay. If anyone can do this, it'd be you"
"Thanks" You say. "I hope you're right..."

Then she steps away, and nods to you before walking away.

"Okay... homeward bound" You say. "No detours to the Hart manor... just home"

>[1/2]

You reach your apartment quickly, or at least it felt quick. Most things do when you're working to think about nothing.

Because every time you think about anything, your thoughts go back to Safi, and you get mad.

You don't think you've ever felt so helpless, not since you escaped from that godforsaken manor. All of your strength counts for jack shit if you can't protect the ones you love.

It's this fucking war. This Blood Moon.

You and Safi weren't kidnapped randomly. The two of you were never innocent children. You were weapons. Bred and raised for this... "Event".

"For the glory of the Guardian" They used to tell you. Brother Fazim always disagreed with the way they were raising you, which is why he left. He left and met Jessica, and had Sarah...

"For the glory of the Guardian" You say out loud, as you come in to find Kyla sprawled out and asleep on her bed.

It might be best not to wake her... you didn't leave on the best terms this morning, and you aren't really up for the conversation she no doubt wants to have...

So...

You walk over to the couch and lay down.

This couch has been your bed ever since you moved in here,which was pretty much right away. your clothes hadn't even dried from the rain when Boss brought you here.

With Yui...

If Yui was there in that manor, then they must have known that she'd become a mage eventually. Which probably means that she is one now. A mage with a Goddess for her landlord...

Too many hints and clues, all pointing towards the same thing. You'll have to confront her about this.

"Mew" Moriarty says, after hopping up onto your stomach.

If you're right, and you really hope you aren't, then you don't have just one sister to keep safe in that arena. That complicates things in a way that you don't feel entirely comfortable with...

"Meeee" Moriarty says, as he paws at your face.
"I know. 'I'm being cute, pet me'" You say, as you sit up and start petting the little furball. "If only everything could be as simple as you, fuzzball. All you ever ask for is food, pets, and a place to shit"

"Mew" Mori says.
"Yeah, I know. You're a complicated and philosophical being" You say. "Who happens to love having his head scratched"

"Meeee"

>[1/2]

>>42675247
Mori too cute.

"Do you ever miss your family, fuzzball?" You ask your cat, after petting him in silence for a while.
"Mew"

"Sometimes I wonder if you resent me for taking you away from them... because I could totally understand that" You say. "Did you know that my parents are dead?"

Moriarty licks his paw and drags it over his head. You'll take that as a no.

"Neither did I, until about an hour ago" You say. "It's a little strange remembering that you had a family, and remembering that they're all gone all at once"
"Meeee"
"I mean I guess I do still have a family... even if I've never met any of the Malikovs" You say. "Nazir is actually my last name, but I do like Malikov. Hell, Boss has been a better father to me than my actual father was"

Moriarty jumps as someone knocks on the door.

"It's open" You say.
The door opens. "You left your door unlocked?" Jessica asks. "That's asking for trouble"
"Maybe I was hoping for some trouble" You say.
"Bad Saif. What did I say about looking for trouble" She says.
"Not looking. Just leaving myself open to it" You say. "We going?"

"Yeah, let's go" She says. "We'll talk on the way"

You were planning on that. But what to lead with...

You go and wake Kyla, with Moriarty perched on your shoulder. Then the 3 (or 4, if you count cats) of you head down to the parking garage.

"So does somebody want to bring me up to speed?" Kyla asks after you get in Jessica's van.
"Yeah... just give me a second" You say.

You bring Kyla up to speed on the things that you've already told Jessica, while she listens quietly.

"Alright, so what have I not heard?" Jessica asks.
"Well... I'm an uncle" You say.
"Y-wha?" Jessica asks. "Did Safi have a kid?"
"I probably could've phrased that better... Safi didn't. You did" You say.
"I di-... Fazim... he was your brother?" She asks. "And Safi was his sister..."

"You okay?" Kyla asks.
"Yeah... I just... I think I have a good idea as to what his 'last job' was..." She says. "Sorry, continue"

You tell them about your awakening in the Hart manor, and subsequent escape. By the time you're finished with the story, you've arrived at the warehouse.

"Okay, before you continue I've got some set up to do. I just need to know what you want to cover first" She says.

"Explosives" You say. "You said they'd be easier to learn, and I can think of a few creative ways to use them"
"I hope that's creative as in: easier to stay alive, and not creative as in: fun ways to kill a certain someone" Jessica says.

"Can't it be both?" You ask.
"Careful, sweetie. That's a dangerous path to be treading" She says.
"It's not about vengeance" You say. "If it was just about vengeance, I could wait until Sunday and kill him then. I need to save Safi. Killing Harvey is a fortunate byproduct of that"

"So long as we're clear" She says. "I'll be back. You two feel free to continue without me"

Jessica leaves you with Kyla, and you can feel the tension between you...

"Have you given what I said this morning any thought?" You ask.
"I've given it every thought" She says. "I'm not quitting"

"I didn't think you would" You say. "But I just... Eternity is a long time to be alone"

>eternity is a lie

"Better to spend it alone than to give up" She says.
"It's up to you... I guess" You say.

"It goes without saying that you know just how much this needs to end, now that your memories are back" She says.
"I do" You say. "Still, it's a bit weird to think that I was raised for this purpose-"
"Not just you" She says. "There were others"

"-and you weren't even going to pick me" You finish. "All that time spent training and getting lectured and literally worshiping you, and you went and picked someone else"

"Are you... are you actually mad about this?" She asks.
"I'm a little miffed, yeah" You say.
"You weren't initiated" She says.
"Still" You say. "Hurtful"
"Quiet you. I in my godly wisdom decided that you weren't in my best interests" Kyla replies.

"And now?" You ask.
"You are my best interests" She says. "See how nice I am?"

You give her a playful punch in the arm

>[1/2]

Believe, Saif.

"Alright kiddlies, playtime's over" Jessica says. "Room's ready, pull the archive out and let's get to work"

"Room?" You ask.
"Clarice put it together... err... That's Clarice Benson, by the way" She says.
"Ms. Benson put it together? Whatever it is?" You ask.

Jessica waves for you to follow her, and leads you to a room at the back of the warehouse. The room is pretty damn big, and the walls are solid concrete. But the walls seem strange...

"Elasticity" Jessica says, putting her hand on the wall. As she walks into the room, the floor depresses beneath her feet.. "Clarice did some work on this place. She was a specialist at controlling and morphing solid matter"

"So she made a concrete... bouncing castle?" You ask.
"Basically" Jessica says. "Durable as hell, yet soft. Also made for explosives practice, because the walls absorb impacts"

"Can I bounce around in it?" Kyla asks.
"After Saif is done whipping grenades around" Jessica says. "Now, let's begin. You can finish talking while we work"

Either way it would seem we kick ass with explosives.

Man this is the highest we have every rolled for a quest. Before that I think our highest was like a 37.

>48
Hot damn. I'd say sign us up for the A-team, if we wweren't so busy making our own.

Imagine it like this, Saif: the pin is Harvey's dick (to scale), the grenade is his sack. After ripping the prick from the sack, you only have to picture it destroying everything he loves. Maybe his parents.

Jessica starts on a tangent about safety, which reminds you of the time when she almost killed you with an RPG...

Hang on...

"I can survive an explosion point blank" You say. "Why are we talking about safety?"
"You can?" She asks.

Did she forget about the time with the RPG? Well, you suppose you could remind her.

You walk away from them and pull out the Archive, and then draw a stereotypical grenade out of it. Once you're far enough, you pull the pin and toss it up as high as the ceiling will let you, and you slow yourself down.

The explosion engulfs you, leaving you untouched in your super-solid state. Once it's gone, you re-enter real time.

"Right. Time magic" Jessica says.
"So you really don't remember getting me with that RPG?" You ask.
"Saif, you are not the first person I've hit with an RPG, and you will probably not be the last" She says. "But since you can so blithely ignore the laws of physics, I suppose we can shorten the safety talk"

"All I ask for" You say.
"But we're still doing some safety" She says. "Just because you can turn invincible, doesn't mean you'll be able to every time. So I'd rather you have the knowledge and not need it, than need it and not have it"

You sigh. "Fine, I guess that makes sense" You say.
Jessica claps her hands together. "Good! Now, if you'll pull me out another of those" She says.

While Jessica gives her lecture, Kyla and Mori are on the other side of the room. Kyla bounces impatiently, causing ripples in the strange elastic concrete, while Moriarty pounces around and generally flips his shit over the newness of it all.

Well... at least someone's having fun.

That's all for tonight!

Next thread will probably be on Thursday, but it definitely won't be tomorrow.

As always I'll be sticking around for questions/suggestions

>>42677678
Night boss have a good one

Truly the fire rises.

Great thread, Smiley! Haven't wanted to murder an antagonist so hard, since Lamia Daughter Quest!

Seems Harvey has some breathtaking insecurities.

He'll get over them while banging Saif tonight as she tells him she loves him.

Sure she can use that line to. She'll tell him how he is the only light in her world.

Since Saif's share a soul both are giving that little shit a bj.

>>42678050
Does this means we can know about Safi's too?

Problem is that we need to block Safi's transmission or we need to enter to gain info
