Professor Etheric
You know that thing where an organization has the pre-scripted greeting that tells a little bit about them? Yeah...

Just so we're clear, the main job of the Shadowlight League these days is the protection (and possible training and employment) of magical types (wizards, sorcerers, and the like). They also investigate esoteric, occult, and paranormal things.

Also, at every point, Mercy has made sure that Ghoul is with her willingly.

Do I really come across as that snarktastic?

Professor Etheric
Sometimes, Soph... :P

Don't worry about it, SarahSophia. One good snark deserves another, and Ghoul had it coming. Heh, poor Ghoul. Never has so much snark fallen so flat so often as has his since he met Mercy. ^^

So the Shodowlight Leage is like groupe of people who just happen to have an understanding between each other?
Professor Etheric 22nd Feb 2016, 1:09 AM edit delete reply
Professor Etheric
Hmm... In a way, yes. It's probably fair to say that the Shadowlight League and [REDACTED], also known as the "wizard police" have an Understanding... ish...

Ghoul is a punk, and uses sarcasm as a defense mechanism... :P

And THANK YOU! I kinda HAVE to, all things considered. I'm glad I'm doing it right! :D

yay MONEY!

wait... what's the catch? ;)
Professor Etheric 22nd Feb 2016, 3:28 PM edit delete reply
Professor Etheric
The catch? Occasionally handling dangerous magical artifacts, watching things that are very boring until they really really aren't, and having a secret that would guarantee you will be the coolest person around, except you can't tell anyone. Also, MiBs occasionally pester you.

On the plus side, most wizards, sorcerers, witches and the like all over the world tend to react well toward you, and most major cities (and some not-so-major cities and towns) have a Shadowlight League presence, so you have a safe place to stay/hide out if you need it...

hmmm sounds good.

...*provided* he gets well along with these shadowlight people ;)

Heh hehe heh. The snark.:D
"The Shadowlight League" is the coolest name~
Ohhh, I wanna see them 'hire' Ghoul!
Professor Etheric 22nd Feb 2016, 3:29 PM edit delete reply
Professor Etheric
Beware the snark...

Thanks! I was really proud of it when I came up with it!

Well, Ghoul has some learning to do, but he COULD end up working for them...

I would want to know more about the magical-insurance benefits before I sign anything. >_>

P.s. I still think Gabby is a wicked cool character!! XP <3

Professor Etheric
They actually have excellent health coverage, and if magical badness happens to you, they will do whatever they can for you...

Thanks! I like her, too. She's a good "grounded" character in the midst of all the madness. Just don't ask her about the time she and Professor Edgar Stanton found the [REDACTED]

I like the way you shade that lady's hair. It came out nicely.
And seriously, somebody needs to get this guy a swear jar.

Professor Etheric
Thanks!

And you're right, though he doesn't have NEAR the money to support his pott-mouth habit.

Professor Etheric 12th Aug 2016, 6:09 PM edit delete reply
Professor Etheric
We do appreciate that, Fig!

And yes, the snark is heavy with this one...
