☆66.5☆ [Fourth Wall]

[tearsofademon]

[So someone has decided to make a fort of blankets and pillows in the corner of the bedroom, and despite a certain Clefairy tugging at his pant leg to try and get him to come out, he's not budging.]

No way, Rose! Every time this happens, I get buried in crap or something else bothersome happens! I'm just gonna wait it out until everything calms down, and nothing annoying's gonna happen.

[Care to glitch into his room and prove him wrong?]

Gaah--!!

[You would have thought that, given his concerns about being piled on again, he would have built the blanket fort stronger. That, however, is not the case.

He's not coming out from under the collapsed sea of pillows and stuff, not yet anyway, but you might feel his limbs twitching a little.]

*that earns you a funny look because what on earth are you talking about*

What are you talking about? A human possessed by a demon isn't the same as a demon...

*well, not at first, at least*

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

Maybe, if I hadn't been born with these. Most people don't see bearers of magic eyes as human.

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

That's because humans are foolish.

*says the vampire who's still clinging to his own humanity...*

A human possessed by a demon is still a human, and a demon possessing a human is a demon.

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

Ahh, well, human or demon or what have you, what I am doesn't really change much, right? People fear me because I could go berserk at any time. Hell, sometimes I still wonder why Sion has so much faith in me.

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

What's that got to do with me?

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

I'm just saying, I know how it feels. Not wanting to hurt anyone, but worrying that it'll happen anyway...

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

*...okay that earns you something of a long, scrutinizing look, like he's trying to decide just how much to believe or not. Though, in his case, it's something less of an if and more of a when.... he knows he's putting off the inevitable, that it's eventually literally either drink blood or die. But even so, he's not quite to the point of volunteering that kind of information unasked for, so in the end he says nothing*

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

And... ahh, I dunno. I guess my point is, it'd be kinda dumb of me to retract my offer just for something like that, right?

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

...

You're wrong.

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

Maybe I am. Maybe I'm an idiot. But it feels right to me.

Re: Action

*:/*

If I have to, I don't mind taking down anyone who gets in the way of what I need to do. If what you said about this place is true, there's no point making a commotion, but...

*...but he's alone in a strange place with to his knowledge no safe way to deal with his thirst and he still is somewhat wary of that little scythe-beast and the idea that there might be more of them*

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

There really isn't. You'll be gone in a few days at most.

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

Then there's no reason for me to stay around here.

*and every reason to get as far away from any humans as possible, if he'll be here more than a day*

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

...Well, if you're sure.

I can at least give you a map. I mean, I get it if you don't want to stay in town, and there are some caves nearby, but you really will want to be careful of the wild Pokemon...

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

I can handle a few monsters.

[peridork]

[ Houndour, being no worse for wear, recovers the quickest. He bounds off of his trainer and onto the floor, turning to yap furiously at the tangled mess of limbs and pillows.

Peridot lays there wheezing, trying to summon up the breath to tell her Pokemon to shut the hell up, but she just keeps mouthing like a beached fish.

For the first time, she notices a twitch, and manages to roll off the mass, propelled by sheer alarm over there being something under her... ]

[tearsofademon]

[He would thank you for getting off of him. If, you know, he wasn't currently more concerned about "what is this I don't even".

With a groan, however, he starts crawling out of the pile of bedding.]

Seriously, why...?

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

Well, yeah, I don't doubt that.

[glancing at your sword]

I'd just kinda rather avoid a massacre, y'know?

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

*frowns*

If they attack people, then what's the problem?

*...he's assuming your 'partners' there must just be exceptionally tame pets. like pet dogs as opposed to wild wolves or something*

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

Beeeeecause they generally don't aim to kill and I don't approve of killing them just because they attacked thinking you might be a potential trainer to impress?

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

... What?

*...no really he's not certain which part of that makes the least sense*

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

[hopefully it's not Ryner being averse to murder]

When somebody gets brought here, the usual way anyway, they get partnered with one Pokemon to start with. Rose, here, was who I ended up with.

["Fairy~"]

You're pretty much expected to go out and catch more, and a pretty common way to do that is to go out and battle Pokemon in the wild.

Re: Action

[tosaveyuu]

That doesn't make any sense.

*no, really, just... what kind of twisted logic IS that, anyway?*

Re: Action

[tearsofademon]

Honestly, it really doesn't. But that's how it is.
