Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

Not really. I'm pretty self-sufficient.

[munches on a chip, watching him.]

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

Okay.



What?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

[amused]

You're already so comfortable?

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

I would be more comfortable if you brought me a pillow and blanket.

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

[munches a chip.]

Who is the Servant here, again?

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

Oh, do you want to be pampered?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

[.......... wait.]

Maybe I just want some entertainment? I've indulged you with stories and the like, haven't I?

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

Yeah? How can I entertain you?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

Tell me a story, this time.

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

You... know I don't really know any, right? I'm not like you, I don't really read or anything.

[He pats the couch next to him though.]

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

[moving to sit next to him]

Stories don't have to be just something you've read or anything like that. That's a bit narrow, and I know most archetypal stories, anyway.

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

[??]

So... what do you want to hear then?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

If I knew that, I wouldn't bother asking. I'd just seek it out.

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

Oh. I guess so...




[Well fuck he doesn't know what to say. He's not good at coming up with entertaining things that aren't sexual. What even kind of story is he supposed to tell? He didn't exactly have a childhood where stories featured. It was all survival and blood. Dokja said it didn't have to be a normal story but...??]

Um... I might not be smart enough to be entertaining.

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

Aloys... you're plenty smart.

Devious, even.

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

Devious is different from smart. I'm cunning and underhanded too. But I don't really... Know much?

What makes you think I'm devious though?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

Academically intelligent isn't the only "smart" there is. If that was the case, people like me wouldn't have been tormented by bullies for having "stupid" interests growing up.

[JUST SAYING. but then swiftly moving on like he didn't just show that old wound,]

And you just said it? You're cunning and underhanded. Practiced with it. It's not a bad thing to be devious, so long as it's beneficial. And even then, it's not like I could judge.

[he can be devious af]

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

[He keeps learning new things lately. Like Anaxa revealing there are books on sex and what has he missed by not being interested in reading??

And now apparently it's possible to only have a bare bones education and still be "smart". What is the world even coming to.]

...Huh.

You know it's weird to me to think of someone being bullied for being into books.

What kind of devious are you then?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

The kind who has tricked people into having to kill him a few times.

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

...I know most people would think my hobby isn't really legit but I'm gonna say it.

Have you considered better hobbies?

[He's going to drape his legs over Dokja's thighs, getting comfortable.]

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

[... rests his hands on those legs.]

It wasn't a hobby. It was just the only way to get to the end I wanted to see.

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

Yeah? And what end is that?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

One where no one had to be sacrificed.

... it was unrealistic. Someone still died, and someone still had to sacrifice themselves in order to maintain that reality.

Re: Day 50

[madidus]

"No one". Does that ever include you?

Re: Day 50

[plotrevised]

... I said it was an unrealistic expectation.
