"Flare demon, huh? This place gets weirder and weirder..."
Ian's move was quick and almost mechanical, mirroring Travis once more. So far he had kept the board symmetrical, with both sides identical, but it was only two moves in so far. The guy asked about his own dog and if it had a name. Ian's own dog? Was it a jab at Ian asking Coaliander's name? He kept his face straight, no smiles here, just a coldly neutral stare.
"I'm not much of a pet person, animals hate Up To Me."
The ghostly visage of Up To Me faded back slightly, half-joining with Ian's own face, their two images blurring in the middle before Up To Me faded completely back into Ian. With no sign of the ghostly form once again, Ian leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, leaning his head back and letting out a long exhale before drawing a long breath back in. One of those sighs you need when your body's been sitting for too long. He leaned back forward again and opened his eyes, his voice lukewarm, normal, not aggressive or condescending but certainly not overtly polite or warm.
"Not too familiar with demons, thought that was just fairy-tale stuff like leprachauns, goblins and Elvis."
