Family does not always seem to be reason enough these days.
[Though it has always been reason enough for Death to be there for her little brother.
He gives Matthew a little look at the snort, but there’s no bite behind the silent bark. Raising a hand, he gives a little ‘come here’ gesture with his fingers. Matthew knows what it means and flaps over to land on Dream’s shoulder so Dream can pick up the book he’d been sitting on on the throne.]
There has been a dispute over ownership of the book, or more precisely, what ownership of it means to two different groups. There has already been an attempt to abscond with it. Until I can sort the matter, I’d rather it not be kept on the premises.
[And he didn't think anyone, even these groups, would risk crossing Death for it.]
[ And that's why she thinks it might help all of them to have a therapy session—
Well, they can disagree on that but she knows her siblings can come through, given enough time reason, motivation, and a scolding or two. But she's here. She looks at the book in his hands. It looks ancient. ]
Yeah, I can take care of it. Hopefully no one tries to crash my place. Some demons tried when the Lightbringer gave up Hell.
[ Has she told you this story yet? It also ended up into becoming a fun bonding experience with her Despair and Delirium. ]
[Who needs therapy when one can stand in the rain for hours or have breakup breakfasts that include wine with eggs. He’s doing great in life. Though with his recent issues with Lucifer and other godly beings, he’s had less time to stew on love life complications.
Especially when he hears that someone has tried to infiltrate his sister’s realm. Protectiveness flairs, and the stars in his eyes glow ominously against their pitch black backdrop. His voice is low, measured, and certainly not above malice. ]
[ Technically, they crashed into her house because that's where all the damned went. ]
Dream, no. [ In fact, she'll take the book he asked her to keep from him. ] They trashed the house party Del set up with the damned but it's over and done with.
[ Though she had to do all the cleaning. At least her goldfish and hat collection were fine.

Ish. Her goldfish might need therapy. ]
Don't do anything stupid. Or reckless.
[ she gives Matthew a serious look. ] Call me.
