[His reflection is the most likely result of a lifetime using and abusing his ability. Deformed face and body, skin split off like pieces of dominos on every free inch until he's no longer recognizable as a human being. Salem scans this reflection with narrowed eyes, efficiently ignoring the dread that crawled into his stomach before.]

... Interesting.

[ Ew. With considerable disdain in her voice: ]

How absolutely vile.

duplicar July 21 2011, 21:58:29 UTC

It is, isn't it? [His voice is almost a whisper, still deep in contemplation until he finally breaks away from his trance, glancing at the woman without much thought.] I suppose that's why they chose to show it to me.

It has some particular significance to you? [ A small shudder passes through her, and she purses her lips, painted an absurdly bright red. There's no sympathy in her tone, just mild disgust. ] Good god, you poor thing.

duplicar July 21 2011, 22:14:32 UTC

[There is no loss; sympathy is something he doesn't respond to.]

It is my reflection, isn't it?

larceny_and July 21 2011, 22:18:29 UTC

That is your reflection? I thought this place was simply messing around with us! [ She sounds ever more judgemental and unimpressed, tutting quietly under her breath. Then her voice softens again, suddenly, low and full of condescending pity. ] What a sorry little mess you are. Or will be, perhaps?

duplicar July 21 2011, 22:21:30 UTC

[They might as well be discussing the weather.]

Perhaps.

[He looks around.]

They wouldn't happen to have any food around here...

A house of mirrors serving food? [ She arches a brow and pouts slightly in a way that says "oh, honey", even though she knows that her sugary, patronising ways aren't going to have much effect on this man. Why does she always meet such weirdos? ] That would be the day. I can't imagine a more awkward and unsettling dining experience, with these heinous things surrounding you.

[ She gestures absently at the mirrors. ]

Never said anything about serving.

[and that's that, as he walks further down the hall. Feel free to follow or continue to decide just how weird he is.]
