"It wasn't a dream, it was a nightmare, a very horrible nightmare, I was me and yet i wasn't, I was something awful, something that just can't be real..." he starts sobbing constantly "... i was in my home, Auntie was there the elders where there, they where preparing for a ritual, it all went so wrong... and then I showed up, not me me, but a me that was not me, he loved all that went wrong, fed off it, and the carnage... no the carnages, everywhere i went the me that's not me would follow, sometimes i would behave, but sometimes... sometimes it just went so wrong, there would be other me's that where not me, but this ones would be different than the first one, some would hug me, some would laugh, some would pat me in the back with pity, but even when they where around i could hear him, i could hear his...my laugh and then i would be me again, and there would be blood everywhere... it was just endless a vicious path of blood and carnage... i would sometimes go on walks with the me that was not me, during those times there wasn't any blood but there was chaos everywhere, up was besides and besides was zig zag it was a place where nothing made sense and yet everything was perfectly logical, we always started this with a forest walk, i always thought it silly no matter what forest we start on we always get to this place, and yet we always ended up in a different forest... you see? it can't be real, it has to be a dream, it is to weird to be real" he rambles before he starts to sob once more and begins repeating "...just a dream..." over and over

Call me old fashioned, but an evil ascension to power just isn't the same without someone chanting faux Latin in the background.
Oreo, Glazing people better than Dunkin' Donuts since 2009
That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange eons even death may die.
Oreo eventually calms down "Why... why did it do that?" he asks calmly "The potion i mean, it wasn't supposed to do that, why did it do it? why did it made me remember those horrible nightmares? why did it make me think they where real?" he asks obviously trying to stay calm, for the first time his smile has been worn out and there appears to be no chance of it returning.

"You don't have to continue if you don't want to," the woman says, placing a translucent hand on Oreo's cheek. At this, Delventhal and Solonavi look like they want to object or interject.
"No... i suppose I don't..." he says calmly before looking at the woman once more, this time with perhaps the most serious face he has ever shown anyone "But I have to don't I? If I stop now i will have the nightmares with me forever right? so even if i want to i really can't, not with all this horrible dreams that seem so clear and so real... I have to go through it all... or else i don't think i can ever smile again" he says calmly and with deep resignation in his voice as he steadies his breathing and looks at Delventhal and Solonavi, a sense of pain deep in his face although a familiar twinkle shows in his eyes "So Doc... what happened and how do we solve this?"

After an exchanged glance, Solonavi starts: "I believe some kind of repressed personality manifested itself once you took the potion. Now, I believe that we will be able to make it so a potion is ingested every 80 seconds, enabling this repressed personality to stay near the surface."
"I don't feel comfortable giving him the potion repeatedly without any rest time in between."
"Well, how many times can you give them the potion before any serious damage occurrs?"
There is a hesitation, before Delventhal says "Three potions. Maybe four. I wouldn't recommend more, and I would like it if he rests for about an hour before taking the potions again. Alright," he says, holding up two of his arms as Solonavi moves to object. "Half an hour. At absolute least."
"Will Oreo be able to handle that?" the woman asks, turning towards the others, then turning back to Oreo.
"I... I think I can... and if I didn't know better i would think you are taking a liking to me" Oreo says with an empty chuckle although no smile covers his face this time.
"You say its another personality? Are you sure?" he asks Delventhal with a curious face as if piecing together something of his own "It might be something else entirely... i hope"

What happens next is a blur, for a moment it seems Oreo just hangs lifeless on the table, the next moment he begins giggling, the next there's a shriek, followed by sobbing and then a maniacal laugh.
"Really now! Couldn't you bring me back sooner? I could have told you all that whimpering idiot did and in much better detail" says the now familiar voice of Chaos.
"Any chance we can make this permanent...what the hell?" there's a moment of confusion in Chaos' voice as he shifts back and forth between Oreo.
"OH SON OF A... No you dont!" "So you are what I thought!" "Thought? You dont think at all remember?!?" "No, I think, you just keep making a jumble of everything so I wouldn't understand..." "You know nothing!" "Indeed... but I think i am beginning to learn"
It is all quite strange, to see him berate and argue with himself before the potion expires and he slumps back down "I should have know... I should have... but how could I? It has never happened before, this is too strange, why didn't they tell me?" he rambles to himself once the potion finally wears off.

"That I have been soulbinded!" Oreo almost shrieks it "That's normal enough for my home, but its always a demon or devil, never before have we soulbinded to it's kind, it never happens, and yet it did... no wonder i can handle the forest so well!... its the nature of the spirit, gods..." Oreo continues in a tone almost exasperated "... a Fey Spirit... a Sprite?!?...." His face contorts as if in pain as he says the last "...damn it all... am I myself or am I someone else? which of the me's is me?"
He looks at Delventhal with a blank stare "What am I to do now Doc?"

"Well, there are several paths we can take," Delventhal says, "We can continue to bring this 'Chaos' forward, we can continue to try to examine this... soulbind you spoke of."
"Or we can stop and let him rest," the woman points out. The other two dismiss this.
Oreo looks at the woman with appreciation although its clear rest its not an option.
"If you can coax him to explain it to you he should be able to give you much more details than me..." Oreo says calmly after a few moments looking at Delventhal "...i suppose the plan hasn't changed then give me the rest of the drinks and lets hope you are crafty enough to handle it...he?... myself? gods this is so aggravating" he says with a dark sort of chuckle as he attempts to shake his head slightly, an act that's difficult with the restrains.

Unlike the prior time's Oreo does not trash around after taking the vial, instead he just hangs lifeless for a few moments before looking at everyone with a smirk on his face "What a *****, he knocked himself out so as to not deal with me, figures that little princess would do something like that".
Chaos looks around at the woman and grins "You really should get higher standards, he wont show you half a good a time as i will... though the other half will be to your corpse..." he mumbles the last part almost into a whisper.
Chaos looks at Delventhal and scowls slightly "Seriously Doc cant you let me move around a little? I don't get enough chances to just be me" his tone is a little colder this time, apparently he is loosing interest in just chatting.
OOC: Good to know, i like the flexibility of your quests to be honest slight question do you think the restraints would stop a triple G.Growth'd Chaos?

The woman rolls her eyes at Chaos' first comment, then narrows them at the whisper.
"We have no guarantee that you won't hurt yourself or others," Delventhal says.
"If you tell us what we want to know," Solonavi says, holding up the second vial in front of Oreo's/Chaos' face, "I will keep giving you these. If you stop being cooperative, I'll let Oreo take back control. Understood?"
"That's not quite enough Doc, you see you stop giving me those and i just go to doing what i was doing before, of course now that the princess knows about me the level of stress and paranoia will increase making it much much easier for me to come out more often" Chaos says with a smirk at Solonavi
"Give something to get something is the nature of all things right? well same thing here, i'll give you something and you can loosen up my bonds a little bit, give me just enough to stretch a little, sounds like a fair bargain no? besides i can tell you don't really wanna stop seeing me, I intrigue you too much" Chaos says casually, a sheepish smile plastered in his face.

"Much better thank you" Chaos says casually as he does some neck stretches.
Looking at Solonavi he grins "Honestly no beating around the bush with you, I am Oreo yet not Oreo I am nature yet above it, Hunter yet Prey, through me a thousand lives pass in the beat of a mouse and a single summer lasts as eternally as it takes for a leaf to fall. I am what you would call, the Chaos of Nature and the Nature of Chaos" he finishes calmly.
"For the next question how about loosening my ankles a little bit?" he says with a grin.

"Well aren't you all a rather mirthless bunch... fine fine, I am an entity of Chaos, one of the precepts of Nature if you will, there are many of us, we each embody some aspect of the Cycle, I personally tend to embody the Chaos of nature itself, which is quite a lovely thing actually, and must admit you kids have been doing a rather cute job at it as well." Chaos says casually.
"My ankles now if you would" he says as he smiles sheepishly

Solonavi pours the vial down Oreo's throat. He then backs off while the woman loosens the straps around his ankles, allowing for movement, but not completely free.
"I can see how a fey spirit or sprite would embody nature's chaos," Delventhal nods while this goes on. "Now, why were you soulbound to Oreo?"
"I AM NO MISBEGOTTEN, SEXUALLY AMBIGUOS SPRITE!!!!" Chaos almost shrieks it, his muscles tensing as if he wants to pounce on Delventhal and rip him to shreds, after a moment to calm himself Chaos continues "ahem.... what i meant to say is, there's a very big difference between sprite and fey spirit, do keep that in mind if you want to continue the conversation, as to why I was soulbound that's rather simple, i am soulbound because i am the one who answered the summons when the ritual was made"
"my wrists are chafing by the way, any chance we could have those loosened up a bit?" he asks sheepishly.
OOC: How many more straps are holding Oreo down?

"That was what it appeared to be, certainly," Delventhal says, nodding.
Solonavi comes over to Oreo, readying the first vial. "Whenever you're ready."

IG: "I have an idea," Solonavi says, and picks up one of the vials.
"Alright, then," the vedalken says, and administers the vial again.

The woman, still keeping her eye on Chaos, loosens the straps around Oreo/Chaos' head.
"What are you, exactly?" Solonavi asks, his clipboard at the ready.
Looking at Solonavi he grins "Honestly no beating around the bush with you, I am Oreo yet not Oreo I am nature yet above it, Hunter yet Prey, through me a thousand lives pass in the beat of a mouse and a single summer lasts as eternally as it takes for a leaf to fall.
