[discomfort]

Oh, would it have...?

[ he trails off, thinking. ]

I suppose so.

[trofmocsid]

[Gives Owner a Look.]

...I know you're a demon, and you probably don't understand these nuances the same way. But you really caused a mess.

[discomfort]

Mm.

Just in terms of him, or...? What about you?

[satisficing]

[There is a fizzle out of the pixels, and he glitches into himself.

The edges are frayed. It looks like the image of him is barely hanging on. An overlay of Owner's own face is a ghost over him.]

I'm at the center of the mess, so.

[discomfort]

[ let him keep the tatas.

but hmmm. ]

Romance trouble?

[satisficing]

[Thankfully, he keeps being female Owner and not female Owner, so he does, BUT HE ISN'T USED TO THESE THINGS.]

You did this. Now you think you can dig the secret out of me?

[discomfort]

Well, since I caused the problem, I would like to know how bad it is to see who else I must apologize to.

[satisficing]

[The sigh he lets out makes him glitch all up into pixel-y blocks.]

That's your excuse? ...You made him fall in love with me is what you did. But he deserves better, and he has a place to go back to that needs him. Our lifespans aren't the same.

You're hurting him.

[discomfort]

[ there's a pause, and he sighs. ]

Viktor-sama, I did not make him do anything. Someone did the same thing to Isabel-sama and I, and whoever did that is not making us do anything. I can apologize for cursing you, but what happened after the fact is not under my control. A spark is just that-- a spark, that has the chance to either ignite into something bigger, or to be smothered, depending on how things go after.

However, if you wish for me to take all blame, disregarding every interaction between the two of you ever since that occurred, then fine. I shall. But I think ignoring everything that I had zero part of is an interesting choice to make.

[satisficing]

[SLAPS THE LOGIC AWAY!!!!!! He looks away.]

I think that is an unfair comparison. You are a demon, and it may be different for you after it wears off. But Sidon is not like that. It... felt instigated, is all.

I... just don't think that is something which should be played with in jest. To anyone.

[discomfort]

Perhaps. But the damage has been done, I cannot turn back time. Again, I will apologize when I go speak to him.

[ PATS VIKTOR ON THE BACK ]

Are the feelings returned, or no?

[satisficing]

[DON'T PAT HIM, YOU MADE THIS MESS, OWNER!!! He glitches out briefly before returning to being pixelated Boowner. Ownoobs.]

That is a secret you won't get out of me until I know you've apologized to him. Even though I'm sure he'll tell you it's fine anyway.

[discomfort]

[ boo. ]

Aw. You know I'm good at keeping them.

[satisficing]

Supposedly you're good at keeping them, but even I don't know the truth of that.

[NOT THAT HE DISBELIEVES OWNER DOES. It's just the fucking cryptid vibe of this man that makes it believable.]

I'll tell you in a letter if Sidon says you gave him an apology.

[discomfort]

[ he sighs. ]

I will accept that. In any case, besides that, how is it over there?

[satisficing]

[Forces secret edging onto Owner.]

It... isn't as bad as people would think, surprisingly. We don't want to be there, of course, and... the flesh is a little strange.

But I'm not sure if it's really any more dangerous than your side.

[discomfort]

[ ... ]

The flesh?

[satisficing]

There's some flesh, yes. I don't know if I can describe it without this system malfunctioning like usual.

Just know... There is some flesh.

[discomfort]

[ unfortunately owner just nods because this isn't a weird idea to him, he just wonders what kind of flesh it is ]

Is there anything else that stands out?

[satisficing]

Mm...

[His image flickers. He surveys Owner momentarily.]

Who here are you close to? Who... shares their secrets with you?

[discomfort]

Oh. No one. I do not have any friends.

[ lol ]

Although I have been speaking to Throné-sama more lately, and she has been telling me things.

[satisficing]

[Owner? YOUR FRIENDS. PLEASE. Well, unfortunately, this is a sentiment Viktor can absolutely relate to, so he frowns gently in understanding.]

That's okay. Throné can tell you some of what we know so far, if she's willing. With more... clarity. There is a place with us that's important, the place we come from. But I probably won't be able to explain it without the system malfunctioning.

If you could tell her... that for me when you speak to her. [...] Have you ever spoken to Callisto?

[discomfort]

[ HIS CR KEEPS DYING!!! HIS LIFE IS A FUCKIN JOKE!!!!!! ]

Not often, but I do know that... his particular condition is what we should be keeping an eye on the most, out of all of them.

[ i can use pronouns thank god for npc face reveal. ]

[satisficing]

[NOT THE GOOD ONES DYING ON OWNER.]

He... does not care for humans. I think, if anyone, you and Lucien, and anyone else not human, will have an easier time speaking to him. If... you care about us at all, I guess. He's looking for someone...

[He hesitates, unsure. Surveying Owner skeptically.]

I don't think he would be opposed to a cooperation, but... his only concern is that person alone, so his help will be at a bargain, I think. If he finds what he's looking for first... You won't have any cards to play in the game.

[discomfort]

... I see.

[ owner goes quiet at that, thinking over the information. but after a bit, he will nod. ]

I will talk with him.

[ he does not say about what, but. he will. ]
