canon is Tokyo Ghoul. Looking @entranceway

Ah, that place then? I hope they don't mind replacing my tea with coffee.

[Oh no... His mun has told him about this guy.]

I'd worry more about dinner than what you want to drink, if I were you. Don't think you're going to get away with eating people!

[maskuerade]

[Wow so rude.]

I was under the impression that the kitchens took care of that. But you're right, will you be stopping me then?

[titanocidal]

Damn right I will! Eating humans is off limits.

...So long as you stick to the kitchens for your food, we'll have no problems.

[maskuerade]

I see. How brave.

[You are very interesting.]

And very odd. Don't the dead come back here?

[titanocidal]

Was that supposed to be a joke? Even if they came back to life afterwards, you'd still be killing someone.

[maskuerade]

But they come back, does it matter?

[He is half teasing you, Eren....but only half.]

[titanocidal]

[Take that other half and shove it where the sun don't shine. In fact, take BOTH halves and shove them up there.] How about you judge that for yourself, after I off you slowly a couple of times?

[maskuerade]

Ah, you think you can?

I haven't had a serious fight in sometime.

[needlepoints]

[ It should be noted that Illumi doesn't really care either way (and even if he did care it wouldn't show), but seeing he's decided to humour his mun until they can come to a concrete agreement. So: ]

Oh? Why would something so trivial matter?

Shouldn't you be more concerned about whatever 'place' you're being sent to?

[ He's not being fair really as it's not like he's void of having his own preferences over things. ]

[maskuerade]

I like coffee. The place doesn't matter much, I'm pretty fine with anything.

[needlepoints]

I see... How strange.

[ He places a finger to his lips, deep in a thought for a moment. ]

I think that's a very limited way to look at things. What will happen if you end up in a dangerous place? Are you that confident in your own skills to not be worried?

[maskuerade]

I am. My own world is pretty exciting itself.

[He says exciting, he means dangerous.]

[needlepoints]

Oh? How so?

[ Now Illumi is actually interested. They are talking about skills now and not silly things like preferred drinks. That doesn't mean he won't get some words of advice in before the other answers though. ]

Though I can agree that being confident in your own skills is a good thing, I don't understand how that keeps you from worry. Or, at the very least, caution. Wouldn't you want to verify first that the place you are going isn't dangerous?

I myself am confident in my skills, but when you know nothing of where you're going... it's best to be prepared.

[maskuerade]

My world? Nothing too special. Monsters eating people, and some cases monsters eating monsters. That's always fun.

But she is taking me down the rabbit hole.

[He knows that much.]

If you try to make sense of it you might go mad. It's best to just go with the flow.

[needlepoints]

[ Oh? Illumi's stares at him momentarily before tilting his head to the side. ]

You make your world sound boring, but I find that interesting. And very similar to my own world. [ A pause. ] These monsters you speak of wouldn't happen to be Ants, would they?

[ Another pause, as he frowns a little at the comment about the "rabbit hole". He's thinking about what he knows and doesn't and isn't ready to just draw conclusions on so little. Sorry, Uta, Illumi is not one to just leave information be. ]

Going with the flow can easily get you killed. What do you mean by "rabbit hole"? I have just learned that my... associate seems to be thinking of this 'place' for me as well.

[maskuerade]

Ants? No, we have spray for that.

[But something tells him you don't mean bugs.]

It's Alice and Wonderland.

[alwaysgrumpy]

Coffee's not that great for you, anyway.

[maskuerade]

It's better than most vices.

[killer_sweets]

Why would you want coffee from such a place? It might do weird crap to you.

[Alice in wonderland was that weird thing his mun made him dress up for once. All he remember was the place was filled with crazy people.]

[maskuerade]

Anything there might have a strange effect, but that wouldn't stop people from eating.

[killer_sweets]

True, but do you really want to drink coffee in a place. Where a drink could shrink you to the size of a mouse?

...Then again since you eat people, you could get more meat off of someone that way.

[maskuerade]

That would be interesting.

[And weird.]

I doubt I could actually attack anyone if I were so small though.

[killer_sweets]

You would never know until you try. Besides if you're small enough some people might not even notice you taking a bite out of them.

[maskuerade]

I'll be like a mosquito.

[killer_sweets]

Pretty much and you wouldn't worry about people getting pissy about you eating them anymore.
