iv λ knowledge

[Ezio is about to bust out the most intense filter work of his life. He has never done a complicated filter before, and he needs to do this right.]

----- Inventors, technology experts, mechanics, but barring those who seek power -----

[he clears his throat, then in that thick Italian accent:]

Hello... my name is Ezio Auditore, and I seek an inventor or mechanic or... esperto of some kind. I have obtained an object of great importance, but I do not know what it does, or what it is capable of.

But I need someone I can trust, someone with the right... sensitivities for this object.

-----Historians and Religious people, barring Lucrezia Borgia -----

[Still more thick Italian accent:]

I seek information about Pope Alexander VI.

-----

[And, with that done, you can find him in the kitchen, contemplating the microwave.]

No! No. Of course not. I just meant that the apples could have taken after you.

[Or something :| How do I appease the Serpent?]

I guess in all the excitement that...could have happened?

[With booze]

[Considering "hmm."]

So if that were true, would the Apples be dangerous?

Well, they wouldn't be harmless, that's for sure.

I see. And would they look like the apples that men cultivate?

Yeah, sure, I mean. They don't look special. It's not like they have 'Knowledge Fruit' tattooed on them or anything.

[Troubling, and it's rife in his voice.]

I see.

Is there anything else? Anything of relevance at all?

No, but you can tell me why this has got you so het up. The Knowledge Tree is a personal thing, I don't like the idea of anyone messing with it.

[Is he badass enough to lie to the Serpent of Eden? Ezio is really not sure. DIVERSION TIME.]

I haven't seen the Tree, let alone "messed" with it. I was just curious.

Uh huh, 'curious' people tend to ask really specific questions and get irrationally jumpy.

Now. Let's try that again, shall we?

I am not irrationally jumpy.

[He figures he won't get away with this one, though.]

Borgia –– that is to say, Pope Alexander VI –– claims to have such a thing. I am charged with stopping him from using it for ill intent.

...

I knew I should have paid more attention to that sly bugger. So, what, you have to stop him...eating it?

No... he means to use it to open something called the Vault. Something about a Prophet and a "Floating City"? I do not know what any of it means, but he has killed many people to get there. That canaglia speaks in rhymes.

That...makes bugger all sense to me, too, to be honest. That said, Hell doesn't really like me being involved in their big plans all that much. Kind of an outcast. So they could have been keeping that little tidbit from me.

Perhaps I should go back to Aziraphale for that, then...

So what have you done since that thing in the Bible? If you don't mind me asking, that is.

Probably best, he knows the Good Book and all that's in it more than I do.

Mostly the same, tempting. Injecting a little bit of sin into the world, balancing it out with the good.

[Laughs, despite himself.]

Is it you causing all the trouble in the red light districts, then?

As much as I'd like to take credit for it, humans can be smutty all by themselves. They don't need my help.

It's a shame the church does not understand that.

Ah the church. They like to put everything in a holier-than-thou light. Not even most of the angels like that bollocks.

So I should tell Borgia to go fuck himself?

I think I would buy popcorn for that.

Alright, then. I'll make it happen, somehow.

[Crowley makes an amused sound]

Oh, I like you. [If this is a good or a bad thing is really hard to tell with his tone]

[Also amused. Who knew talking to the Serpent of Eden would be like this?]

Is that good or bad?

[And he does indeed go on to tell the pope to go fuck himself.]
