Rating: PG-13
Summary: Meganada is trying to kill Indra. Again. His mother, no matter what his grudge-bearing father and disloyal brother are thinking, will allow that over her dead body. Argilla's not that happy about this either, but she wouldn't go so far as to sacrifice earth to save Roland. Probably.
Warnings: Um, if you've played the games, nothing you haven't seen before (death, spoilers)...
Prompt: June 8)Digital Devil Saga, Various: Mythology, Otherness, Conflicts of Identity - "Sometimes the line between them blurs."
A/N: Last of three due today

She is both Argilla, not wanting to lose another comrade, not wanting to lose someone who while not Jinana is someone she has come to care about in a different way and Prithivi in this moment, both of them raging at Meganada (who was he, once?) to get his %^&*ing filthy claws off her comrade/baby.
Argilla understands why Cielo has to stay with the rest of them, to keep Fred and Sera and everyone healed and safe and well.
Prithivi is of the opinion that Vayu and Varna can take care of themselves and their worshippers perfectly well and her husband Dyaus had better get his rainbow ass over here even if he is still pissed off at Indra for killing him that time.
Argilla says that Roland keeping Cielo captive has nothing to do with it. They’re comrades now, even if part of her says not comrade but family. That same part of her that says that everything is family, she is both the earth and its mother, and Meganada might have earned the name ‘Indrajit,’ conqueror of Indra, once, but there is no way he is going to do anything else to her baby!
Roland, Roland was never one to lay down and die, he was a trickster, always had a way out, and yet he’s almost dead and Meganada is feeding upon his flesh. That’s not Roland. It might be Indra.
Damn Heat for betraying them!
Where’s Agni when she needs him! Where’s Agni when his brother needs him! When they all return to the heavens she is going to wring his ^&*(ing neck! (The profanity of the gods would break a mortal’s mind, and Prithivi still has need of her mortal shell.
She won’t let Meganada get away with this. She won’t let that ‘god’ get away with this, devouring her through those transmissions.
So she smiles comfortingly at Roland/Indra, at her comrade/baby, as she avenges them all trying to save herself.
And Dyaus is divided, Vayu feels his blessing leave their bodies, and Varnani sheds a drop of the nectar of immortality. It can’t bring them back, but the intoxication of power fills her new avatar, beckoning her to hasten to Varna’s side.
Varna, god of law and order and so much else, keeper of oaths, without whom they are all lost. Varna, who can grant immortality and bring the ones they’ve lost back.
But Serph can’t do that, and they’d be asking too much of someone who drowned in that EEG tank-thing… He’s dead, they need to let him go.
But of course he’s not dead. Varna is god of the drowned: of course his avatar wouldn’t die that way. And Vayu knew that, which was why he told them not to mourn.
But the earth they are trying to save has died before their very mortal eyes.
It’s easier to be the demon, the asura, the deva. Strange, that the gods are the ones to have faith.
