[ The camera opens on a girl in some seriously Glam Goth attire (think: chainmail hoodie and lots of skulls). She's waving her arms in front of her- something else must be holding up her phone- and there's movement around her. What are those, plants? Huge writhing vines, bursting out of the earth. She turns and looks to the camera, pausing for a moment. ]

Hey there dissatisfied youth of America. Ready to regret your country's irresponsible use of reality warping bullshit? 'cause I sure am. They don't give a shit about me, and they sure don't give a shit about you, so fuck 'em. Let's party. Time, date, and location to be made obvious.

Cover is 20$ if you can afford it. First hit's free if you can't. Bring extra food and clothes if you've got extra food and clothes. Take extra food and clothes if you don't. Dress ready to walk, and let me know if you'll need mobility accommodations on your way down to hell. Everyone's invited, yeah?

[ Then she starts moving her hands again, and the vines start moving once more. There's a great din suddenly as they begin dropping huge boulders and mounds of earth next to her. ]

And hey, anyone in the tights and capes crowd know a way home? Now's the time to share it before I make myself comfortable. One chance to send me back to hell before I raise it here. Got it? One chance.

I'll be there, [ Dorian almost instantly says, looking at Persephone with something akin to awe. ]

[ She looks over at him. What should she feel? Regret? Remorse? Pride? Nah, she just feels like there's dirt where all her organs should be. ]

Good.

[ He can't help but give her a small smile as he continues talking. ] I'll see if Toby can come also—I think he'd like you.

[ mostly because Toby as well dealt with some KIND OF SERIOUS DEPRESSION in canon. ]

Uh-huh...

He's the husband, by the way. [ said in a very pointed tone because YEAH, HE'S MARRIED remember that homegirl. :| ]

Yeah, I figured.

[ The vines deposit what would appear to be a full grown oak tree, roots and all, down on her pile of giant rocks. ]

[ There's a pause...and okay, he's got to ask about that. ]

What exactly are you doing with those rocks?

Excavation.

For what purpose?

To make a huge fucking hole.

I'm here to fill Lucifer's throne, but his style's not mine. Too bright.

He is the morning star after all. So what will yours be? The Church of the Maiden? I think that's what Kore translates to anyway.

[ fun fact! Dorian's a mythology nerd. ]

Maybe. But that's not what Persephone means.

You're going to have to enlighten me on that etymology then. My forte's Latin, after all.

So go look it up.

Or you can tell me instead, saving us both time and effort as well as a few erroneous translations. While I have a fondness for the Greeks, things like "spelling multisyllabic goddess names consistently" weren't their forte.

I'll give you a hint: it doesn't mean Maiden.

If I say the opposite of Maiden, I've got a tiny feeling you'll bash my head in.

[ he means 'slut.' the word Dorian's thinking of is 'slut.' ]

... Sorry. Been there already. Didn't like it much. And really, one theist devil is enough for anywhere, wouldn't you agree?

[ . . . ]

Might happen anyway.

[ She looks him over critically for a long moment. Then lights a cigarette. ]

Doesn't matter, he's not here anyway.

Well the opposite of "maiden" is, to put it nicely, "loose woman." Isn't it?

[ it is so gonna happen ]

Nuh-uh. Try opposite of Lucifer.

'Lucifer', a Latin rendering of a Hebrew word, translating to either "the morning star" or in an adjectival form "light bringing." Stab in the dark that you're thinking the opposite of the latter over the former...so possibly something like "one who brings darkness?"

Uh-huh. Close enough.

I've got to say, I'd prefer "the maiden" better.
