considering apping to a game?

[fearsdaughter]

...I'm busy, seasons changing over, species to maintain, storms to bring, lightning to throw at people for thinking I can't.

If you're going to do this do it quickly or not at all.

[She sighs.]

I'm also ignoring the fact that I've had less of a proper appearance than my father, he had a whole chapter.

[boogerman]

What are you blabbering on about?

[fearsdaughter]

[She laughs rather lightly, and a decidedly brilliantly colored butterfly emerges from somewhere behind her to make a lazy loop over her head.]

I know why you dream of butterflies, Nightmare King. I know who you were.

[boogerman]

[he sees it and wants to crush it, smear it on a wall]

You too?

[fearsdaughter]

[That would be a very bad plan, she is, after all, Mother Nature. She could probably open up a volcano where you're standing if she really felt like it.]

I know better than anyone, even the Fool in the Moon, the pooka or Ombric. I've known my entire life.

[boogerman]

Bully for you and those idiots, always lording it over me, same as my writer.

[fearsdaughter]

...you think I am holding it over you that you're the mad, hollow shell of the man I called Father?

[There's a crackle of thunder and a wind flares up cold as her tone and expression go icy.]

I stopped them from killing you because I know you are capeable of mastering yourself and the monster you've let yourself become.

[boogerman]

[what]







[...what ._.]

[fearsdaughter]

I'm not a little girl anymore, don't look so surprised.

[boogerman]

All this time you knew and you didn't say anything?

[fearsdaughter]

I have an entire planet's ecosystem to manage, weather patterns don't make themselves and food chains are nearly falling apart all the time. I don't have time to track you down and be disappointed every time you don't recognize me.

You had your own schemes and plots and I have no intention on helping you with any of them. I may not like the Tsar but I won't act against him or his weak attempt to replace you with four fools and one of my weather spirits either.

[boogerman]

[did he actually hear a word you said]

[MANIA!]

Do you have any idea how long I've wondered who the girl in the locket is?!

[fearsdaughter]

I'm not her. Not anymore.

[Thunder rolls again, lightning crackling above as she snaps at him.]

Not since my father was destroyed on that stars damned prison and you twisted your way in to existence out of the remains. I had to grow up knowing that my father's face was the one slaughtering everything he'd once protected.

And then. And then, when you finally stopped and I thought that maybe just maybe he was back?

You didn't even recognize me.

I am so sorry!

[boogerman]

But I know your name now! Seraphina! I have a photograph!

It's all good! I'm flailing at the new book's reveals. HFS. You okay with Spoilers?

[fearsdaughter]

You think that matters now? You have a photograph and a name but that doesn't mean you know me.

Didn't know there was a new book. PM me with spoilers if you want

[boogerman]

I could! You could tell me!

came out monday stateside! Your PM's don't work for me D:

[fearsdaughter]

It's a bit late for that.

I spoiled myself anyway! Seraphina is a much better name, tbh.

[boogerman]

[pleading and hopeful]

Don't say that, it doesn't have to be! It's never too late.

it is, and I"m working on the app now because... hahaha enough information!

[fearsdaughter]

Yes, it is. It was too late when I landed on this forsaken planet.

I may be your daughter but you stopped being a father long ago.

[boogerman]

[... no no no]

It wasn't my fault.

[fearsdaughter]

Did you even really try to look for me before going off on your war against the nightmare men?

[boogerman]

I don't remember.

[fearsdaughter]

Of course not, it was so very long ago.

[boogerman]

It isn't too late.

[fearsdaughter]

You can't just pick things up after all this time like none of it's happened, that's not how it works.

[boogerman]

I didn't say that at all.

[fearsdaughter]

But it's what you want.

[boogerman]

I want...

[someone. anyone!]

[fearsdaughter]

I wanted you to come back, like you promised.

You didn't.

[boogerman]

What do you want me to tell you? I don't know anything.
