canon is Akame Ga Kill! heading to crux_fleet

[sadicetic]

If you treat me properly, I'll do so in return - that's how this works. As long as you fulfill this, my one condition, I promise to accompany you to the best of my ability.

Of course...fail, and I'll make you wish you got off as easy as Wave did.

[THAT'S NOT REASSURING.]

[godrobe]

Threatenin' em, eh?

Does that ever work?

[sadicetic]

If it hasn't before, no one has tried hard enough.

You just need to get creative.

[godrobe]

You're a bit full of yourself if you think you can make it work when no one else has yet, aren't you?

[sadicetic]

And? I can tell you now, it isn't unwarranted.

[godrobe]

Mun always have something to make it worse, from what the others in this one's headspace tells me.

[sadicetic]

Would they cut off my limbs? Bury me alive? Boil me in oil??

[godrobe]

[ this lady has some really funky ideas. ]

I wouldn't put it past them to be honest, but apparently they're more into psychological torture.

[sadicetic]

Forcing sleep deprivation? Water torture? Or maybe...white torture?

[Staring intently, as if she's curious.]

[godrobe]

Are you a masochist or what, lady?

1/2

[sadicetic]

A masochist? No, no, you have the wrong idea.

[sadicetic]

I'm trying to decide whether or not they have anything they could teach me about torture.

But somehow, I doubt it. They seem like novices compared to me.

[Sigh.]

But still...there's benefit to instructing others. It's a great way to reflect on your own skills.

[godrobe]

I think you're looking at this too straightforwardly.

What's the point in doing that if they already know what you're capable of?

[sadicetic]

Because watching me in action might have given them some new ideas...though it's hard to say, considering the nature of where we are. Acting like I could is so false.

It's such a nuisance.

i decided to use someone else

[keeperofdeath]

You know you can't really promise that.

even better

[sadicetic]

If they were too stupid to catch on, it wouldn't be worth my time.

[keeperofdeath]

Promising your loyalty to someone who hasn't earned it first is stupid.

[sadicetic]

I haven't given it just yet.

But then, I suppose pretending I have a choice would be something I couldn't act on either, hm?

[2meta]

[keeperofdeath]

[Good thing Mandy is pretty meta herself.]

That's the universal contradiction of being fictional. You're not just a figment in one person's head, you're a figment in the heads of anyone who knows of you. Your choices were never your own. Your free will has never existed.

[sadicetic]

So what should I do? I'm all ears, since you seem so informed.

[keeperofdeath]

Deal with it.

[sadicetic]

[Alright, laughing.

she likes you]

What's your name?

[keeperofdeath]

Mandy.

[sadicetic]

Mandy.

[Handshake.

Accept > Y/N?]

I'm Esdese. Your attitude's quite charming, you know.

[keeperofdeath]

[Handshake accepted.]

I prefer to think of it as demanding.

[sadicetic]

Haha. Demanding, then.

It's a good attitude to have, all things considered. I bet you have no problems at all here.

[keeperofdeath]

I have the same problems any other character has when faced with the subject of objective mortality.

But I'm getting by pretty well, I guess.

[sadicetic]

Hm. But you seem to handle it better than most - that's something at least.

[soul_sister]

... What's properly?

[sadicetic]

With respect...but if - or when - they try to make my life difficult, to make it interesting.

I can't stand boring suffering. Even my own.

[soul_sister]

Well I guess that-




... Wait, who's else are we talking about here? This is a minimal suffering adventure!

[sadicetic]

Hm? I was under the impression Muns aren't very nice. Was I mislead?

[That's not all though, since she's just as bad...]

[soul_sister]

Like I would know! If they're going to be trouble I'll make them regret it too!

[sadicetic]

You'd go so far? For the sake of everyone?

[senseandcecilbility]

But who would ever consider treating a lady improperly?

[Sounds like you have been through a bad experience, madam.]

[sadicetic]

[That actually gets a laugh out of her.]

Life can be cruel, didn't you know? Man, woman or child - they're all subject to Nature, a most capricious mistress.
