That's not really a thing that happens, is it?

[choshinsei]

no. [ he never needed to. ]

it sounds annoying.

[zlodey]

It can be, but it's easier than using brute strength.
Humans have excessively weak hearts, you see.
Besides, it can also be fun, if you pick the right target.

[choshinsei]

[ hm. ]

fun target?

[zlodey]

What, don't you know any fun people?
Those who'd give you entertaining reactions if you were to trick them.

[choshinsei]

i do.

i just don't find it entertaining tricking them.

[zlodey]

Have you ever tried?

[choshinsei]

no.

[ he knows what's coming. ]

i don't want to.

[zlodey]

How booooooring.
Let me know if you ever want to spice your life up a little.

[choshinsei]

i can spice up my life without honey-trapping people.

[ don't ask him for specifics though. ]

[zlodey]

( you can't just say that and not elaborate?? )

Oh?
Do tell.

[choshinsei]

i only need to spend time with other people.

[ given his circle, he wouldn't need to lift a finger for something spicy to happen. spice will just come on its own, whether he wants it to or not. ]

like you.
when you aren't doing annoying things.

[zlodey]

How delightfully simple.

( well... nothing wrong with that. except fyodor's always doing annoying things. )

What's your definition of 'annoying'?

[choshinsei]

things that don't interest me.

[ he's a simple being. ]

[zlodey]

And what /does/ interest you?

[choshinsei]

very little.

[ he reserves all of his care for his little brothers. ]

[zlodey]

Tell me more, so that I may better entertain you.

[choshinsei]

[ hm. ]

i'm trying to figure out what it means to be human. [ that's his current interest, quasi non-related to his duty as a big brother. ]

[zlodey]

Ah, now that's an interesting dilemma.
Can something inhuman become human in the first place?

[choshinsei]

i'm half-human.

[zlodey]

So inhuman.

[choshinsei]

do you think it's not possible?

[zlodey]

I don't think it's worth doing, is all.

[choshinsei]

why?

[zlodey]

Why would you want to?
Humanity is filthy, sinful and unworthy.

[choshinsei]

[ not to @ a prevalent part of himself, but— ] so are curses.

if i'm going to be filthy, sinful and unworthy no matter what, then why shouldn't i learn to be more human? [ at least they have more facet to them than just cursed energy. ]
