Naberius
Champion Of Christmas
When the other entities left, Gabriel raised an eyebrow.
"Huh. Other me is kind of a dick."

When they emerged from the stairs Gabriel's first reaction was shock. The space they came to was unreal. Like something out of a fairy tale. It was immaculate, pristine, and unlike anything he had ever laid eyes on before. He let his eyes and thoughts wander, taking it all in. Then something nagged at his mind.
"Wait a minute... Base? I thought this was a one time deal. We show up, punch evil in the face, go home. I didn't exactly come packed for an extended stay. I left all my stuff back in my shitty apartment."
He looked down at his bloodstained clothes, making an annoyed face. He was covered almost head to toe in gore and mold. Dried blood caked his boots and every bit of clothing he wore. He stripped out of his shoes, leaving the filthy things behind at the door and dropping his coat on top of them. The building they walked through was immense. The sheer size of it was enough to make his head spin slightly. The only buildings he had ever been in of those size were office buildings and factories. When they exited out into the pool area, his mind instantly went to a postcard he had found years ago of outdoor hotsprings. But this was far more impressive. The time and effort that must have gone into just this one area was staggering.
He watched, highly amused, as Harian leaped into the water. He smiled again. He had never been in a hot tub or a hotspring before or anything similar other than a really big bathtub. The water almost seemed to call to him as he stood by the door. He looked down at his clothes again and frowned.
"Not that I wouldn't mind a nice soak after falling on my ass and being kicked into a wall, but I think I'd rather just shower. I uh.... Don't wana be the guy that fills the pool with blood and bits of dead rat."
He didn't want to admit to being far too self-conscious to lounge around in a pool with other people he barely knew. He didn't even go to regular public pools because of it. In fact, the last time he remembered ever being in a pool at all was at a pool party one of his childhood friends had had for their birthday when he was around 7 years old.
