[ Look, it's an Isaac, slouching in his old room - the one that matches the numbers on his arm, not the one he sleeps in. It looks mostly unused because he's only been in there for all of six hours before he moved down to Derek's space. "Mostly" is a keyword, though; he's been staying here infrequently, in between avoiding Derek and other familiar (adult) faces. Maybe Erica knows where he's been. Or Remus, or Hayley, or Tyler, or Seraphim. He's pretty sure no one over eighteen knows, Isaac's gone lengths on the matter.
He's not wearing his mask, even if he's been wearing it a lot lately; Isaac knows a thing or two about keeping quiet, especially about things that can and do hurt you. The confused sad look he's wearing right now, though - it's a bit too clean. It's sincere, mostly.
"Mostly" is our word of the day.
Then he holds up a combat knife for the network to see.]
I don't know anyone she was friends with, but for what it's worth, Miss Rosella's not around anymore. She left me this, for some reason.
It's a pretty big knife.
Anyway, people have been disappearing, and there's this big thing going down about Smiley and stuff, so I guess this is a bad time to ask about gym equipment, and like. Who do we talk to about appropriating one of the bigger rooms or a holodeck to set up a gym? I mean, we probably already have one or two but this one's more of like, a club thing?
More of a thing that's just ours, not something pre-made and ready to use. Is that allowed?

i checked everywhere i could and i can't find her. network id's 404 error-ing me, so i guess she's not on the ship anymore.
this is the knife she stabbed me with, i'm pretty sure.

[ ooc: if anyone wants to say they saw isaac sneaking around and stuff, feel free to say something about it! isaac's been: a) helping erica look for boyd, b) helping tyler look for his uncle, c) hiding from hunters, d) hiding from derek, e) hiding from adults in general, so if you're 21+ and you noticed a teenager quietly avoiding you in the hallways, it's probably isaac. team jailbait can just throw him a rock or something, though, because he's been emoting over some of the recent drops. ]

No, nothing quite so theatrical. [His true face, sure, that was a bit horrific if you didn't realize what you were looking upon, but Nick wasn't that bad to look at and Sam, well, he was meant to be the final piece.]
He takes human form when He's walking the Earth. [A pause.] There are only a few that are even capable of taking on His presence and He needs their permission - it's not the same as with other demons where we take what we want. Whoever He plans to use, whoever He needs for that -- he needs them to accept Him. Once that's done, he will look just like that person. All of His essence, His power, will just be contained in one Normal Looking Guy.
[She'll leave out the part where he slowly starts to rot away if the guy isn't a perfect fit.]
I think the best way to think about it is that He's supposed to bring temptation and how is He going to bring any sort of temptation if he's bright red with horns. You'd run away, you'd think you were dreaming, on drugs, or crazy.
He was once an angel, He knows more about humans and what they need to have their minds put at ease when talking to Him. [She might seem a bit nostalgic, because it is still hard for her to think that everything had been a lie, that he would just clear the slate and purge them all.]
He's an ass though. [The nostalgia is short-lived, apparently.] Selfish and uncaring, which I guess is what people should expect from him.

Isaac still can't fully wrap his head around that, if he's honest, despite being a monster of the night himself. ]
What happens to the body they take, though? I mean, matter can't occupy the same space as another matter, right, that's a basic rule of chemistry and physics. Where does the other guy go?

[She pauses, trying to figure out how to explain it.]
In the case of Lucifer, they volunteer to get put aside, to let Him 'take the wheel' so to speak.
