"Oh! For a second, I was worried it was a book that could cause me some harm." There was a meek smile on his face. "Being as I am somewhat demonic, dark spells could alter me, control me, or send me back to Limbo. All of which I would not enjoy in the least!"
Dolemeck took a good, long look at Argo. Even in Amsterdam, the man proved to always be happy and look on the bright side of things. If the world threw lemons at him, he made a lemonade stand and gave a glass to everyone. In all the pictures of that trip, he smiled. Even when Vincent berated him for giving his demi God powers to a peacock, Argo would just chuckle and insist their trip was the greatest thing ever.
It was as it just hit him that ever since he recovered his memories, and even before, he lived in his past. He feared what people suspected and lived in the shadows of long dead Knights and Kings. It was just as Derek had told him in Spain.
"You live in the here and now! The past does not matter, anymore."
"I've been living in the shadows too long, figuratively of course." Dolemeck crack a big smile, a big genuine smile. "I'm tired of that, Argo. I'm tired of thinking I am what people say I am... a "demon". I am a wonderful person, and I want to finally let go and have fun! just like I did in Amsterdam. Only this time I wish to remember every bit of it! I want to have so much fun and merriment that it hurts! I want you to go get that Little black book of yours, and call as many numbers in there as you wish! Tonight, I am finally going to let myself go and have fun! I am going to let loose and follow your example and have an utterly "OUTRAGEOUS" time! No more sulking for me! From this day forth, I want to enjoy my life, and being well... me!"
He continued to smile, even giving off a loud chuckle as he fell back in a chair. It felt so good to say such things and mean it. To look forward to something he wished to do, to truly experiencing life itself in the fullest.
"But umm... how do we control my fainting spells when it comes to scantily clad maidens? As much as I wish to have the time of my life, I doubt the fair maidens from your book would appreciate me fainting before their gorgeous beauty!"
