4 MORE DAYS WHOOOOO!!!

Yes, mun. It's almost here. I know.

And I trust that you have enough willpower to avoid any spoilers from now until the game's release, at least....

[Narrowing his eyes.] ....Right?

.......

[A grimace.] Just stay focused. -Or divert your attention elsewhere, if you must.

There's no need to break your resolve now that you're so close to attaining what you've been waiting over 10 years for.

Giving in to temptation is for the weak.

[Have an amused smirk. Your frustration is like candy to him, Raven.]

Here's a spoiler for you. A Mishima is not as easily killed as you think.

[The man merely gives an unamused grunt.] Oh- I'm well aware.

If you people hadn't existed, I might have actually had the chance to rest easy in between your repeated efforts to muck things up for the general population. And yet, every time I think about taking a break, one of you inevitably reappears...

-Much like roaches, really.

'Muck up'? Is that what they call it now? And here I thought that attempting to burn civilization to the ground would warrant more descriptive language.

The same goes for you ninja. Easy to crush beneath my feet, but seemingly infinite in number.

It really doesn't. I know how 'special' it'd make you feel for me to pontificate about your 'evil conquests' with flowery prose- but the fact of the matter is that you aren't special at all. More powerful than most, maybe- but in the end, you're just another power-hungry animal. History has seen many of your kind come and go... And it's only a matter of time before you meet your end like all the rest.

What separates me from these other 'power-hungry animals' as you call them, is that they wanted power for their own self interests. They wanted to rule, to dominate.

Me? I could care less about ruling. I just want to see this world burn.

...So you're not just an animal. You're a rabid beast with no real purpose outside of indiscriminate murder and destruction.

Noted.

You give yourself too much credit. Do not think you know what is really going on. You're only scratching the surface of this.

Then by all means; explain. Feel free to have that long-winded, stereotypical evil villain monologue that you've always dreamed of.

Actions speak much louder than words. Besides, I'm not going to divulge the inner workings of my plans to an enemy. I'm not that stupid.

Avoiding spoilers in this day and age, and particularly on the internet, is a time-consuming task: I wish your mundane well in their endeavours.

...............

....There's no need.

[While Raven's response may have initially seemed like an ill-spirited rejection of Yoshimitsu's best wishes, the man's expression is oddly solemn; perhaps even a bit disappointed. A pause.]

She cracked. Just gave in and watched nearly everyone's ending cinematic.... A day before the game's release.

[A sigh.] Pathetic.

... I see. I extend my condolences to you instead, then.

[Waving his hand dismissively.]

I don't need your sympathy.

~~[WAY TO BE A DICK, RAVEN]~~ It's her own damn loss.

-And frankly, I don't care whether she gets as much of a kick out of playing it now that she's gone and spoiled herself or not. It's just the thought of playing puppet to someone with such weak willpower that irritates me.

So you would readily accept the strings of a strong-willed puppeteer?

[~~Oh well would you look at that; Yoshimitsu asked a question for which Raven has no snappy or argumentative response!~~ There's a short pause, if only because the ninja knows full well that he already has.]

[But when Raven speaks again, he does so with absolute certainty.]

If it served a purpose worthy of my acceptance.

[~~SUCCESS~~I mean that Yoshimitsu takes notice of that silence, and his own answer is surprisingly un-smug.]

Some say a ninja can do nothing but serve whatever master that will have them. That they are nothing but potential threats to be eliminated on their own. That kind of thinking lead to the slaughter of the first Yoshimitsus clan, and thus I can understand your answer. One serves the master which can protect you and yours.

Self-preservation doesn't concern me as much as preservation of the way things should be; the natural order and balance of this world.

Personal freedom is merely one of many sacrifices necessary for any ninja dedicated to this goal. Anyone who thinks otherwise is unworthy of this profession.

Hn. I said I understand it. I didn't say I agreed, for I do think otherwise. In fact... your 'otherwise' is what my entire clan is based upon.

'Natural order' and 'balance of the world' are fine concepts, but who defines what they mean? Who sets the ironclad rule of what is and is not natural? To some, it would be the natural order to allow Oda Nobunaga to get away unpunished with his wanton slaughter of whomever opposed him, for what right did a clan of immigrant peasants, thieves and spies have to go against a highborn warlord?
