OOC:
I realise this RPG seems to have pretty much died, but if I can help it I'd rather not just sit back and let that happen, so... I thought I'd try to carry on with Silvia and Olivia's part of the story... I mean, obviously Dave's been unable to get on, but let's at least
try to keep it alive!
Sorry if this is one of those threads that should be let alone... But here goes.

Silvia looked at Olivia's outstretched hand in disbelief, then disgust. She turned away, "I can't believe you! You've totally changed, what happened to the Olivia I used to know?"
Olivia let her hand fall back to her side. "Time. Time changes us all. Time will change you. You'll see. No one can resist the call of Slade."
Silvia turned sharply back to her sister, "What?"
"You heard me," Olivia answered calmly, "Slade chooses his minions, if you'd like to call them that, though he usually prefers to call them workers or followers, quite carefully, and once he has chosen one he continues to call to them until they come to him. So far no one has ever been chosen without eventually coming to accept his ways, and you'll be no exception."
Silvia was silent for a long time. The two of them simply stood there, looking silently at each other. Then Silvia slowly and purposefully drew her gun out of her holster. She lifted it up, then hesitated. Olivia stood completely still, simply watching.
Finally Silvia spoke, hesitantly, "How did he... stop this from working?" She held up the gun.
Olivia smiled, "If you would just accept my offer, you would learn that and
much more."
Silvia turned away again, putting the gun back in its holster. "No... I can't."
She started walking slowly away, while Olivia simply stood and watched, still smiling...
