Because his house was useful for going places and it seemed like a good meeting point, Alexander asked Orion and Mel to meet him there, so that they could discuss Orion's obsession with Eric. He had told Orion that he wanted to show him something, but didn't elaborate on what. Mel, of course, knew what was going on already as she had helped plan it.

He stood leaning against the back of the couch, idly petting Rosie who hung around his neck like a scarf, waiting for the others to arrive.

He bows and then taps Orion lightly on the head, shifting him into the Astral Plane. "This is so you don't get stuck there." He then peels Rosie off of his neck, giving her a little kiss on the nose and setting her down on the couch.

Once the flitter was down he snapped his fingers and transfered them to a world where four gods ruled and warred. To a training room, where there was an Orion and an Alec - a teenage Alec - working out.

Alexander was gone, but Mel would still be there to provide commentary.

Orion was training Alec in parries, working him hard. He demonstrated another move. "Like that, lovely."

Mel gestures to Orion and Alec. "This is an alternate of yourself, if you hadn't already guessed. He's currently the general for a god named Yobachi, and is a complete and utter control freak."

She watches the two. "They are unaware that we're here."

Alec tried to mimic it, but failed utterly, grabbing his head and shaking it. He made a face and then tried it again.

General Orion takes his arm and moves it through the move, more touching than really necessary going on. He murmurs the instructions in Alec's ear.

The other Orion watches, taking in the piercings, the collar, the way his alternate touches Alec. His eyes are unreadable.

Alec is slightly stiff, you can tell that he doesn't want the touching, but he allows it with a sort of crazy mad determination in his eyes.

The general gives his ear a quick nip and pulls away. "All right, try it again. Don't fuck it up this time."

Orion nervously picks at a chipped spot of nail polish.

Mel watches the regular Orion, watching him carefully. She notices how nervous he is. Good. Maybe it'll work.

Nodding, Alec tries it again. He doesn't completely fuck it up, but he's really not getting it. He scowls and then glances at the General.

The general growls. "You're hopeless at this. This is the simplest damn parry and you're really a little pathetic." He takes his arm again, moving it through the motions.

There's a frown from the regular Orion.

"I'm trying!" Alec protests, letting himself be led through the motions again.

"It'll take a lot of work." Orion guides him through the motions again, then pulls away. "Again."

He does it again, and makes it through, but drops the sword. Quickly he picks it up and looks at Orion fearfully.

"Fuck this." The general pushes him up against the wall, kissing him hard.

The regular Orion is frowning even harder.

Mel has shut her eyes. Not tightly, but she doesn't want to watch this.

Alec kisses back, whimpering a little as he does, but not protesting a single thing that's being done to him.

The general keeps kissing him, purring a little.

Orion turns away. "Can we go?"

"I suppose so. Alec? You still here, you crotchety old bastard?" she asks.

Maybe it's working, finally. Maybe they're convincing him to stop being obsessive.

And the three of them are else where. Alexander shakes him self, brushing off imaginary dust from his sleeves. "Didn't like the show?"

Orion cocks his head. "So, what was that? I'll turn into that if I keep going? Thanks for the warning, but I don't believe you."

"Maybe not that exactly. But close. Alec, where to now?"

"To the future. And I was very careful with this, so it's your future, not some alternate's that we're going to be looking at."

Orion crosses his arms and shrugs. "Okay."

She sighs, and looks at Alec. "Let's go."

They disappear once again, and this time reappear in a very large and comfortable looking room. It even had a very nice sound system. It was well lit with windows. And there was an Eric there. "Orion, Eric. Eric Orion."
