[TW: vomiting, blood, possible gore I am sorry if I mislabelled this I'm new to this😭

English also isn't my first language so I apologise for grammatical errors]

Involuntary Memory

It's been quite a while as her time as expop, quite a while since the uncalled for 'reunion' with a boy she's known for good twoish days back when she was six years old just, that the both of them are all grown up now. The time where her papa took her with him to new orleans for work he never talked about to her and to be fair she never thought she'd see Franco ever again. It's just she didn't expect him to be the way he was when she was first singled out back during her time as a reagent. The way he spoke to her, about her, even giving occasional leering looks, grabbing her by her hand and holding the shotgun in another, resting the front under her chin to keep her head lifted up so she wouldn't try to move and other instances like her captivity caused by that Bride Newman. Still remembering the dark to navy blue dress with the shoulder and back revealing V cut she was forced to wear, Newman getting all in her face with how she'd leave her 'cocoon' and become a stunning 'butterfly' before this woman handed her away all dolled up, being carried even, because she's awful in heels and refused to move. The way she was used as a plushie by her childhood friend later on. It made her uncomfortable to some extent despite some more normal and gentle things happening too besides the creepier, more discomfort causing things which just confused her. Especially her being spared during rebirth instead of getting killed via being drowned in that pool. Made herself even refuse to believe this is the same person she met all those years ago too to make all of this feel less awful and as much as she is in denial, it is in fact him, but she still needs to come to terms with it. Probably won't for a good while.

As of now she was tasked to do something, to gather things, harvesting even. It's teeth. She was talked into this by him and she didn't have the guts to decline either so she just agreed for safetys sake. Remembering getting his hand placed on her shoulder in such a way she's been shaken just a little bit on impact before she was told to go.

Now she's been roaming for some time trying to look for something suitable enough. A small fabric sack in one hand, her metal pipe in the other. The sack is filled just a little bit at this point, but not enough to deliver those just yet. Feeling still a little weakened as she's thrown up a while before after picking some up from a corpse whose jaw she had to loosen up by hitting them with the metal pipe. Feeling absolutely horrible and sick to her stomach when she had to do it. Doesn't help she's standing before yet another corpse, aware of what she has to repeat now, but this time it was a reagents. Still intact, looks like they've died from blood loss or maybe just dehydration. She placed the little blood stained cotton sack on the floor, tying the top of it securely. Stepping a few steps back, holding the pipe in both hands similar to how you hold a bat, staring as she's taking deep breaths. Holding that position, getting shaky, pouty and teary eyed the more she's trying to force herself to do this.

Breathing heavily, heart's pounding. Closing her eyes shut as she went for one swing after another. Hearing things crack, crumble and splatter followed by dull metal thuds of the weapon until she dropped the pipe to the floor, absolutely afraid to open her eyes right now. Keeping them shut for at least a good moment until opening them. Seeing what she's done, what she inflicted to that reagents corpse. All is red, the reagent, part of her uniform, her hands, some even splattered on her face. The jaw almost hanging down loosely now, even worse as the previous one as if she horribly dislocated it. It's like she couldn't take her eyes away from this. In absolute disbelief she's caused this with her own two hands. Starting to horrifically sob, apologising just before she felt physically sick again, quickly trying to run up to one of the bridge railings, throwing up yet again once she's reached it. Holding tightly onto said railing just so she won't tumble forward and fall to her demise, but good god did she feel horrible, she feels like she'd never be able to further forgive herself for all of this. She's only doing this so she won't potentially land on a punish list just how it happened with Coyle. Once she was done the young woman had to take deep breaths, trying to not hyperventilate to some extent. Swallowing between breaths as she's attempting to somehow calm herself while she's making her way back to the body, slowly. Eyes all red, cheeks and lips a little puffy from crying, throat burning. Wobbling towards them to slowly lower herself to the floor to pick the teeth she slammed out up wherever she could find those. Still feeling absolutely disgusting over what she's had to repeat, but something was weird this time. As she's reached for a tooth, suddenly her view flashed back to her picking a seashell up at a new orleans beach in 1946 before it flashed back to the now. Startled and geniuenly shocked she fell backwards onto the floor screaming. Pushing herself near a nearby wall, her heart feeling like it's about to escape her throat. Placing her hand onto her bandaged chest area that was peeking out just a bit from beneath her uniforms shirt piece as Murkoff intentionally left some buttons out to cause discomfort. Attempting to take deep breaths while she's trying not to choke as she's still sobbing hysterically at the same time. Not even thinking how to hide she's thrown up from him just to avoid whatever he might say in response.

Letting a brief "jesus christ" from her as she's struggling to even pronounce it correctly. What a horrific day this is.

**CHARACTER PRONOUNS/GENDER IDENTITY/SEXUALITY ETC:** He/They; Gender Fluid; Likes Women Like A Lot

**CHARACTER FANDOM:** Howl's Moving Castle Book

**OC OR CANON:** Canon

**WHICH LAND ARE THEY FROM: ** Wales, technically. Magical Land - Ingary. However he has a magic house that has has a portal connected to the enchanted

**CHARACTER BIOGRAPHY:**

- fuck boy

- grew up in Wales to a perfectly ordinary family. He has an older sister named Morgan. Morgan and Howl grew up loving each other dearly until Howl began showing he was different. It wasn't a Petunia/Lily Evans situation, as Megan was originally taken in by the magic and wonder... the problem came when their parents despised it.

- Their parents did everything in their power to get him to stop and be normal. But how do you tell a child with magical power to cut the shit? Especially one that's literally a genius.

- Is a genius but is also So Fucking Stupid.

- Their parents practically gaslit Megan, and as Howl distanced himself from his family to be with other like individuals, she couldn't help feel abandoned... thus bringing that tension.

- Howl went to University early, and graduated even earlier with a fucking DOCTORATE in Paranormal Occulpt Studies, Charms and Spellwork, and Magic theory. Don't fucking ask me what university he went to, he's in Wales.

- Howl played rugby as a sport and was quite fit

- He also is into old cars.

- Remember when I said he was a fuck boy? Yeah, he's a fuck boy slut whore who sleeps around and can't commit to anything.

- He ghosted a girl when he was 18, and when her three brothers came to beat the shit out of him, he did a fucky and opened a portal to another universe. Oops! Because his parents threw him out when he was 16, no one but his sister and some of his magic friends noticed.

- In a strange land called Ingary, he found a master - a Witch named Mrs. Pentstemmon. This woman loved him like a mother and taught him everything she knew in a matter of twoish years, after being able to tell his power level could grow to be on the level of the Witch of the Waste.

- At some point during this apprenticeship, his sister MegN gets married to a fucking asshole who is implied to be emotionally abusive. She has two children named Neil and Marianne (Mari). Howl adores all three of them, but especially Mari. His relationship with Megan and Neil are strained.

- And here's where he fucks up.

- While wandering a mood to watch the a meteor shower, he manages to do the impossible and catch a falling star after feeling a strange magical pull. The star, he realizes, is screaming in fear, for once a falling star touches the ground, it dies. The star doesn't want to die, and Howl, having a weak heart, asks the star what me can do. The two form a bargain, which ended up being both the worst and best decision he ever made.

- The bargain transforms the star into a fire demon. In exchange for boosting Howl's power, Calcifer retains hold on his heart... But both realize their mistake right away. Calcifer must be kept alive and bright, otherwise they will both die. Another issue: not having a heart for so long will cause Calcifer to consume Howl's soul. Now, Calcifer is a demon now, and normally wouldn't give a shit, but he has Howl's heart and included is his empathy and love. Howl saved him. He isn't an old enough fire demon to not give a shit. But they're stuck relying on each other.

- Howl has always had, let's say, commitment issues. Stemming from parental issues and watching his sister in a loveless marriage as she became bitter and jaded, and maybe some more internal complexes too, but Howl abandoned his apprenticeship (that was basically done anyway) and became a nameless hermit. He is a Grade A Coward which is why everytime he dates someone or someone expresses any time of feeling, he runs Away!

- "Nameless Hermit"

- In comes the Moving Castle. This is a magical feet, a ginormous fucking machine that prowls the moors of Ingary, near what they call the Wastes. It's run by Calcifer.

- But here's the thing, fucking Howl is high maintenance. The son of a bitch has so may vanity potions and make up and fine clothes and everything that he could send a fucking diva to shame. and to do that he needs Money.

- ENTER THE PORTALS.

- There's a magic door in the "castle", which is, in reality, the little stupid house he lives in in Wales that's connected to Ingary. It's the guest house in his sister's estate (bc her trash husband is rich). So, depending on what color changing blob the door is set too, it takes you different places. One, always black, takes him back home to Wales to his sister and his neice/nephew.

- THE CURRENT PORTALS: Purple takes him to Kingsbury in Ingary, where he is Wizard Pendragon. He upsells his charms and potions and what have you to the rich, where he makes most of his money. This alias also does business with king, though he always dodges the "when will you become one of my official wizard" question. Green is where the castle is currently roaming. People who know the moving castle as the home of "Heartless Howl", a fearsome wizard that eats beautiful women's hearts. Blue is Portshaven, a seaside town in Ingary that is mostly low to middle class. He undercharges his customers here, as most can't afford it but need the help.

- Not having his heart doesn't mean he's "soulless" or feelingless, but it's almost as if his feelings are being passed through a filter, or there's a film inbetween them and him. His eyes are green, and are noticably a glassy color, as if they're empty.

- SO, when he finds a poor recently orphaned boy sleeping on his doorstep in Porthaven... Well, actually, he doesn't do anything. Calcifer let Michael Fisher (13 at the time) in. And Howl, listening to his circumstances... just never told him to leave. Mind you, he never told the kid to stay either, but suddenly, six months went by with Michael (who has no where else to go) helping out around the various shops before either of them realized that Michael was effectively Howl's apprentice. Michael, who was too chicken shit to ask to say just... moved into the spare bedroom and Howl didn't say a WORD. this mans cannot commit to anything.

- Surprise! Howl fuck up again. Well, truthfully, he fucks up a LOT but here's the big fuck up.

- as mentioned before, Howl sleeps around. He runs head first whenever someone catches feelings (or god forbid he has an iota of a feeling) just fucking goes ghost. dips outta there like no one's business. See ya. wouldn't wanna BE YA. This was all fine and good until... well, The Witch of the Waste.

- The Witch of the Waste was beautiful, rich, dangerous, and the perfect temporary sugar mommy — until he realized something was very, very wrong. that magnetic pull he felt when near her wasn't just him being horny, it was her ancient fire demon .

- No one knew how old the Witch of the Waste was - just that she was a giant cunt all throughout history, cursing anyone who pissed her off. Stories said it was a title passed down between mother and daughter... Sorry to disappoint but it's the same lady.

- The Witch of the Waste made the same mistake howl did centuries ago. Her original soul is gone, and all that's left is a demon who no longer has a heart to feel anything anymore, and the Witch is just a flesh sack being used as a puppet. The fire demon wants Howl's heart AND wants to consume Calcifer to beef up the power.

- When Howl realized what the fuck was happening... Well. Howl tried to go ghost. Dip the fuck outta there.

- Yeah that didn't work.

- The Witch of the Waste put a curse on him, binding him to her essence ... which means no matter how far he runs, the demon will always find him. And no matter where he runs, how much protection he gives himself, she always finds some way to slither through.

- Michael, when traveling to the various towns for supplies, makes up absolutely BONKERS stories about Wizard Howl to keep people away from the Moving Castle, which is the sturdiest when it comes to protection wards. His favorite so far is the "he eats beautiful young women's hearts" as a reference to his white behavior

- Howl added a fifth spot onto the portal door. Storybrooke. Look, he knew it was a cursed fucking town okay? He knows curses. But here's the logic: why the fuck would she looked for a cursed fucker in an already cursed town on EARTH??? So he let them live their repetitive lives over and over again... and well, _okay_, he _said_ he wasn't going to do anything - not his monkeys not his circus.

- He's a fucking liar. The only way he's able to get himself to do something is tell himself he isn't going to do it under any circumstances, ESPECIALLY if it's scary.... and by the time he got around to be like "Oh maybe i should stop pretending to be the weirdo homeopathic magic wizard boy in town and actually do something", someone else already broke the curse! Not his fault.

- Except, apparently, there's a whole other place some of these fuckers have to get to and now his apprentice doesn't want to leave because he "feels bad" and Calcifer is COMPLAINING about being moved again, AND he has to go see a rugby game next week that moving makes him cranky —

- Plus, the Witch hasn't found him again yet. So he's still safe, for now.

- So now he's fifty shades of 🧍

- Howl may be a coward, but he is one of the strongest sorcerer's in the world. If you do manage to pin him down, maybe don't. Big Do Not Fuck With Him energy. ESPECIALLY when he has Calcifer bumping up his power. Despite him running away from the Witch of the Waste like a little bitch baby, he CAN go toe to toe with her in battle.

- He has a temper when it comes to people he cares about - not that he would admit it. But go after his sister, niece, or nephew and he'll fucking live up to his fake reputation and rip your heart out.

- Bad With Money. It's a miracle Amazon doesn't take gold coin.

What's Asha's relationship with her family like?

so asha's relationship with her family is.... well, if we mean specifically the nuclear family unit ( mother, father, siblings ) she doesn't actually have much of a family. asha's father died when she was 3 years old, killed by some chevaliers. she has no memories of him, and her mother didn't talk much about him because the memories were too painful. asha's mother died when she was twelve. at this point in her life, it's just her and her younger sister. still:

mother: asha's relationship with her mother was a bit... complicated. she knows now as an adult that her mother was a flawed individual. her mother did play favourites, and because isene was a mage, she tended to get more attention. whenever asha brought up the possibility of her being a mage too, it was brushed off, until eventually asha accepted the “fact” that she “had no magic.” there's a lot of pain there. yet as a child, she dearly loved her mother and would believe anything she was told. her mother got sick, and she was desperate enough to pray to the dread wolf, after all the other gods seemed to ignore her pleas. as an adult, asha tries not to think too much about her mother because it hurts too much to think about.

isene: asha and isene were born twoish years apart. so while asha is 27, isene is about 25. their relationship is incredibly close, but it does have its moments. once their mother died, asha felt like she had to step up and taken on a more adult role, despite the fact that they did have the rest of the clan to rely on. isene is relatively mild mannered ( compared to asha ) and so the two relied heavily on each other, to the point that when asha was nearly killed by a templar to protect isene, the younger sister became desperate enough that she, too, prayed to the dread wolf ( after once again, the other gods failed to show any interest ) to save asha. it wasn't any god that allowed asha to survive, though, just her own fighting spirit but that mattered very little to isene. to isey, it felt as if somebody had finally answered her prayers. even if that somebody was the dread wolf.

of course, like any siblings, they do have their moments of dispute. asha has some mild resentment towards isene due to years of favouritism and because she had to grow up incredibly quickly. asha puts herself second and puts her sister first, and that's something that's really not healthy. meanwhile, isene mildly resents asha because while the mage is only the second in her clan, not the first, she had a lot of expectations put on her and a lot of pressure, whereas asha seems to have had much more freedom. and she thinks asha is maybe just a bit too protective and babies her a bit too much, considering how close they are in age. she thinks that maybe just once, she should be allowed to protect asha, or even protect herself. still, their relationship is very close, and there is nothing these two wouldn't do for each other.

Devil's Heart by William W. Johnstone 1983 Zebra Books

"I'm gonna shove this meat up where I think your God lives."

It's twenty-twoish years after the end of part one. Jane Ann has given birth to Sam Jr., and Nydia (now Roma) gave birth to twins, Sam and Nydia. The two Sam's are college roommates, and Sam Jr. has been invited to Black's family resort in Canada, where he meets his sexy half-sister and her sexy mom, who constantly wonders if Jr. is equipped like Sr.

Back in Whitfield, Sam's stepfather Tony King has joined the forces of darkness, along with 850 of a population of 1050. Of those, aside from weak-sauce Christians who don't count, the only really faithful are Jane Ann, Miles and Doris, and Wade and Anita.

Sam Sr. communicates with his family though cheesy parlor tricks, like glowing bibles and crosses. He sends a radio message to Sam Jr. to go to the airport, where he mystically manifests a long letter, telling Jr. to kill all the Satanist at Falcon house and destroy the magic tablet I'm not sure what it does, and that Nydia is his half-sister. Sam and Nydia load up on holy water and head back to the Falcon House.

Sam and Nydia can now block the psychic powers of Falcon and Roma, and can communicate with each other telepathically, probably because of the fact that they're brother and sister, and the grace of God's will. So they start banging.

More college kids are invited to Falcon House. Most are coven members, but a few are innocents who will be either recruited or victimized. Being a brave Christian soldier, Sam risks his life to save those he can. JK - like his Dad, he blows off the weak as a lost cause.

Meanwhile, Sam Sr. hangs out with his old friends in the form of a mist while Miles creates an eight foot high golem.

Sam Jr. reveals that he was a secret government assassin and is able to kill without feeling or remorse. Nydia asks him what it means to be a Christian. Sam Jr. has no idea, and then talks about how he's going to kill her family. Time for her baptism! God feeds the words to Sam Jr. as he baptizes his half-sister who he's sleeping with. Sam Jr. just starts knowing things. Meanwhile, Black is seducing one of the college virgins with his "angry red glans."

Sam Jr. and Nydia check out a shrine of rocks around a Beast cave. They have a vision of Sam Sr. being raped by Roma/Nydia mom, and Sam Sr. throws his gun through a timewarp to his son.

Back in Whitfield, the spirit mist of Sam Sr. tells his wife that she will be raped to death and that God will do nothing to stop it. Might have been nice to tell her this when she could still get out of town.

The coven needs a virgin for a ceremony. They ran out of women, so Black rapes one of the male guests, which pisses off Satan, who's a total 'phobe, it turns out. He materializes, calls them all losers, and decides to bring in reinforcements.

In Whitfield, the couple hundred Christians who somehow weren't Christian enough are being slaughtered while astronomers are seeing the face of God in the stars.

More cultist show up at Falcon House, with extra young victims in tow. Time to lay the cards on table: they won't harm him for the next five days while they try to turn them to the dark side. The archangel Michael flies through space and destroys an altar with a sword.

Sam Sr. floats around being annoying and cryptic.

"Is there pizza in heaven, Sam?" "In a manner of speaking. But the toppings are not like those known to mortals." "Do they have pepperoni?" "In a sense, they do. And they do not. I've...said too much." "Too much about what?" "Just telling you that I've said too much is...saying too much."

Sam Jr. hangs around Falcon House listening to children being raped and claiming there's nothing he can do. It's not like he's some highly trained government assassin or something. Nydia wants to have sex again, so Sam Jr. slaps her around. He's assaulted by erotic visions of her mons veneris, which is not a spaceport in Star Wars, it turns out. He gets ready to "enter the wetness of woman ready" when they come to their senses and read the Bible until the horny goes away.

Sunday comes around, and the coven cannot make a move towards Sam Jr. or Nydia. Not that they've done anything anyway. A perfect time for Sam to slaughter the lot, only he "knows" that it isn't the proper time yet.

In Whitfield, the Coven make a final assault on the two couples and their golem before giving up. The coven is trapped in town in an invisible force field and they know God has defeated them. In other words, no action here for a few days either.

At Falcon House, where nobody can harm Sam Jr. and Nydia, Sam is knocked out and Nydia killed. He comes to her funeral and the Coven has had a change of heart. Roma asks Sam to baptized them all, even though it would mean certain death. This is, of course, a ruse. Roma's perfume intoxicates him and she rapes him, while Falcon rapes Nydia's corpse.

Nydia comes back to life and the voice of God demands that the siblings quickly have sex - "May your seed be strong." He showers, she douches, and he hopes his sperm is stronger than Falcon's to knock her up first. Roma knows she is pregnant, and will die giving birth to an immortal demon, a demon that can only be killed by a chosen one, who would have to be conceived by the same father during the same time period, and yes, Johnstone's setting up the next sequel.

Falcon and Roma try to get permission from Satan to break the rules and kill Sam, while Sam and Nydia marry themselves in the woods. The voice of God appears and tells Sam he shouldn't fight yet and - look, I'm no going to keep track of all this. It's all just an obnoxious plot contrivance to explain away why Johnstone doesn't want to write more than a couple action sequences at most.

Some action heroes stay alive despite facing overwhelming odds by depending on their skills and cunning. Sam Jr. stays alive because all the villains want him to be alive. Satan has a double agent in his own camp who has been tasked with keeping Balon and his newly conceived child alive. We don't know who she is, but on a completely unrelated note, young college student Linda has come to Sam Jr. and Nydia for protection. The pentagram on her chest is totally a birthmark, no reason to be suspicious.

Roma is already having pains from her demon pregnancy, while the Falcon and Sam's sperm are still fighting it out in Nydia's womb. Her egg might not be fertilized until after the baby is born, which says a lot for the state of sex education.

After a good night sleep in the mansion filled with satanists that just raped and beat them, Sam, Nydia, and Linda need to be prepared for an attack. In a few hours, plenty of time to talk things out first. They head to the forest with a good viewing platform of the altar.

At midnight the Coven have a ceremony, gang-raping a preteen and drinking her blood. A merman/goat shows up. Bats poop over them. Imps run around. A second girl is sacrificed, then Sam figures maybe he could actually use his Tommy gun on the unarmed coven who won't fight back, but no. He just knows it's not time yet.

More creatures appear in the sky. Johnstone pulls a Lovecraft and doesn't describe them lest we all go mad. A third child victim, Janet, manages to sneak away and join up with our trio. Sam finally gets to shoot something, a griffon, and Janet is attacked by rats. They run until they reach a point that they are protected, and the voice tells Sam the monsters won't be able to kill him if he believes in God.

Guess Sam knows the time is right and guns down ambushing cultists, takes their rifles, and starts sniping. He sets up traps in the woods while the archangel Michael slays all the mythological creatures.

In Whitfield, Jane Ann is taken and gang-raped by the whole town, just like God wants her to. Sam Jr. is told by the voice that Satan has the tablet, the tablet that we don't know what it does and if Satan can just grab it whenever he wants why does he send archaeologists digging for it. Sam has 24 hours to finish the rest of his mission, but he has to be away from Falcon House in 22 hours, so really 22 hours. Sam takes a nap while his mom gets raped for a few more pages.

Jane Ann converts some of the Coven back as she hangs on a cross. They beg God's forgiveness and are crucified and skinned alive by the rest of the coven. At Falcon House, Sam Jr. finally cuts loose, massacring the coven with holy water and his Tommy gun. Falcon shoots him as Sam throws holy water in his face.

Nydia drags Sam out of the burning house, having dispatched Linda offpage. In Whitfield, Sam Sr.'s friends transform into spirits and go to heaven with Jane Ann. A fireball destroys the town while Sam Jr. recovers from his wounds.

Epilogue:

Roma dies giving birth to a demon baby. Nydia has her own child, and Janet offers to help raise him, but oh, no! She has vampire teeth.

Duh duh duuhhhh.

Highlights: Definitely the porniest of the series, and also the most overtly religious, often at the same time. If you read only one Devil book, this is the one. It's all downhill from here.

Lowlights: More page length devoted to why characters can't explain the things they aren't explaining than there is to shooting down mythological creatures with a Tommy gun.

We'll take a look at the third Devil book another time. I'm not allowed to say when, but you will receive a sign, and know when the time is right. I've...said too much.
