Elphas The Unsteady Wormwood ❧ Absence

//I can't even make Elphas hide from Zara ic. He's fuckin gooone. Love u tho

"There's not enough alcohol in the world."

"Oh there's the brat."

"Never said otherwise, but you know if you're going to keep bothering me you could at least buy this old man a drink before I completely sober up."

//a very befitting quote for Elphas: "Teenagers scare the living shit out of me."

"You're hopeless and frighteningly young that's what you are."

"I'm too old to still be babysitting Nephilim." Elphas chooses not to question why he hasn't just left yet. He'd rather not deal with the direction those thoughts would take him.

//Y'all never catch Elphas refer to any of ya hooligans as shadowhunters. That's for Jonathan and Abigail only.

“I see you have the common trait of an annoying stubbornness.” Jonathan had been stubborn too, but that had been different. Good even. With nephilim now it was at best irritating.

He has no idea how there's a conversation starting when all he wants is to not interact with nephilim. "I just don't. Are you done?"

"Yeah, but here's the thing. I don't want that."

"Why in the world would I be friendly?"

He's not nearly intoxicated enough for anything.

"Don't care. I don't owe nephilm amusement, or anything really."

"Mh-mh, want is a broad enough subject to cover to the smallest thing like small talk."

"Whatever you want, take it somewhere else. not me." Way too old to deal with nephilim. It's always trouble.

Who's he talking to? Surely not this warlock.

He's here unless you're a nephilim then he's not here.

I was at the 2000 party and I'm pretty sure it's been more than a couple of years since then.

2000 something. That's all I know. 2009? 12? No idea.
