-- Day 177 -- Video/Action--

[bishonen_puu]

[Mirror!Wolfram has crossed over. This is bad news for any and all humans in the mansion.]

This place disgusts me. The amount of humans alive here is more than just an eyesore. I can't be expected to allow for this to continue. Humans are a threat to the existence of all other races.

[M!Wolfram's hand holds a large flame while the other hovers

[A figure appears in the hallway, with a soft chiming of bells.]

And you are... suited, to hurry our fate?

[Go ahead and point out how extremely not human he is. He'll ignore it.]

[Action]

[bitchy_puu]

Very well suited. Are you here to volunteer yourself for extermination? I'm only interested in humans for now.

[Action]

[tadanokusuriuri]

[He doesn't have anyone else to talk to, to find a truth and regret, so he's just going to keep Wolfram talking until he can use his sword. For the time being, he doesn't give any indication of violent thoughts, just smiles placidly.]

Why is it that you are here?

[...He means 'in existence', but he'll take other answers, too.]

[Action]

[bitchy_puu]

To destroy the humans here for her Majesty the Red Queen. I had thought I made that perfectly clear.

[Action]

[tadanokusuriuri]

[All of a sudden, there's an elaborately decorated shortsword in his hand. At the hilt is a stylized face; at Wolfram's words, the teeth open briefly and strike together with a clink that resounds through the hallway.]

Hatred for humans and loyalty to your Queen. That is your Truth.

If not human, then what are you?

[Hey, if Wolfram's going to hand out that kind of information like candy, the MS might as well take advantage of it. He just needs to know what Wolfram is and what motivates him to hate the humans so much now, and then he can fight...]

[Action]

[bitchy_puu]

That's an interesting weapon of yours. A sword still in its sheath will do nothing to save you, though. But since you asked, I am a mazoku of the aristocratic class. You can die by fire or by blade if you wish to choose.

[Action]

[tadanokusuriuri]

A mirror of a mazoku. [Clink! There's the form.]

One more. Before I choose, give me one more answer.

What is it that has made you hate the humans so much?

[Action]

[bitchy_puu]

My reasons are my own. It's your own future you should be worried about.

[Wolfram raises his blade and slashes at him with it.]

[Action]

[tadanokusuriuri]

[Damn. Oh, well. It can't all be like taking candy from a babby.]

[The Medicine Seller sidesteps, with no apparent sign of distress.]

Does it matter what a dead man knows? Tell me. What have they done to you?

[Action]

[bitchy_puu]

If you think you can change the way I feel then you're mistaken. I've seen too much to be swayed.

[m!Wolfram shoots rolling flames at him]

[Action]

[tadanokusuriuri]

[Fuda scrolls appear in his hands, and he hurls them at the walls, floor, and ceiling in between himself and M!Wolfram. They stick, become covered in black writing, and rearrange the symbols into bright red ones surrounding an eye motif in the space of an instant as the fire approaches. The barrier works, stopping the attack as if there's an invisible, fire-proof wall there.]

I don't plan to sway you. I just want to know: what is it that you've seen?

Re: [Action]

[bitchy_puu]

[....impressive.]

You're a curious specimen. Do you really want to hear of the horrors of war and the selfishness of power hungry humans?

[Action - I will laugh forever if his "assume it's a mononoke" approach actually works here]

[tadanokusuriuri]

[Ah. Now that's beginning to sound like a motivation... Needs to be more specific, though. He nods once, never taking his eyes off of Wolfram.]

I entreat of you. Tell me.

[The words sound less like an entreaty and more like a very calm, quiet command.]

[Action -different kind of demon, dear Medicine Seller~]

[bitchy_puu]

I think I've said enough on the subject.

[Wolfram pulls out his sword and charges him with it.]

[Action - Hnnn. He needs to know what made you so full of haaaaaate :\]

[tadanokusuriuri]

[The Medicine Seller doesn't so much dodge as he just... steps calmly out of the way.]

It's clear that you hate them. That hate must have a source. What have they done, to make you as you are?

[Action - DENIED!]

[bitchy_puu]

They didn't make me anything! I'm exactly as I should be! And once the humans are gone this Mansion will be a much better place.

[More sword attacking~]
