Have the Septics met Damien and Celine?

(I can’t believe I haven’t done this yet…)

Jamie brings the others to meet Damien one day. “He’s an old friend of mine,” he explains, signing as they walk. “And he has a sister. She is very beautiful but also scary.”

The Septics laugh a little to themselves as he goes on excitedly about his and Damien’s friendship, and they’re all grateful to see him happy after all that’s happened recently. They find Damien and Celine on Dark’s floor, chatting as Damien plays Dark’s piano while the other Ego is out in a meeting with Wilford, Host, and Google. The private sessions always tend to make the others nervous, so they’re trying to distract themselves.

Celine looks up and sees them first. “Uh-oh, incoming.”

Damien looks over his shoulder, ceasing his playing as he sees them come in. “Jameson, old boy! Good to see you again!” He jumps up and takes Jameson’s hand in his own. “How are you? I heard you went through quite a trial recently…”

Jameson takes a moment to explain what happened–trying not to feel guilty for the worried look on Damien’s face as he does so–before he introduces his brothers. Chase and Jackie mutter quietly to one another, unsure of what to make of the well-dressed young man, but Marvin is intrigued.

“Well, then. You’re the famous Damien Goldhart that Jamie has told us so much about.” He tilts his head to the side. “Do you have magic like the others?”

Damien smiles politely at the strange cat-like magician. “N-no, not really.”

“Damien doesn’t like to use his powers,” Celine adds, tossing her hair a bit. “He’s what you might call ‘the family disappointment’.” This last sentence is added with a teasing air, and Damien blushes slightly.

“Celine…” He chides, but she just laughs it off and comes to stand alongside him.

“Aren’t you all an interesting bunch of fellows?” She eyes Jackie in particular. “I see you like the color red. It’s always been a personal favorite of mine as well.”

Jackie blushes slightly. “Um, yes, I think it’s very, very… heroic.”

Celine winks at him. “But I feel it can be a good color on a villain, too. Don’t you think?”

Chase shoves Jackie a little when he stutters too much to reply. “Don’t mind him. He’s easily flustered.” He offers his hand to Celine and then to Damien. “It’s nice to meet both of you. I’m Chase, Chase Brody.”

“The one from the videos!” Damien says excitedly. “Jameson has showed me many of them!”

Chase gives a pleasantly surprised glance at Jamie. “Oh, really?”

Jamie nods and wiggles his mustache. Celine taps her chin as she considers him carefully. “You know, its been quite a while since Damien and I have thrown a proper party.” She gives Jamie her most winning smile. “How would you like to give a real 20′s bash again, Jameson?”

Jamie waggles his hands in the air and gives a few hops before snapping his fingers and making a red rose appear in his hands which he gently presents to Celine. She laughs and takes the flower carefully. “Well, well then. I’ll take that as a yes!”
