[Video]

[tempervale_npc]

[Temper hasn't been playing on the communicators much lately. No, he was content to listen. He often was. But this, this was turning out lovely.

Really, genuinely fascinating.

Temper's face is relatively impassive, save for the faint beginnings of a smile.This city seems to be trying to tear itself apart again, doesn't it

[ I am a video. ]

[general_affairs]

[ Well, well, well. Now, who was this? ]

It tends to do that. Lucky me I've seen worse, huh?
[ He sounds amused, perhaps darkly so since this guy seemed calm. Chessmaster calm. ] I've got some ear plugs if you need them, yo. Some people can scream pretty loud.

[ I am a video, too PERMANENTLY. ]

[tempervale_npc]

Have you now? I suppose there is much worse. Though maybe others would disagree.

[Temper lifts an eyebrow just slightly at that offer before shaking his head.] I prefer hearing them, actually.

[ Don't make me turn this video around. THIS WILL BE AN ACTION. D: ]

[general_affairs]

Hey, once you've suffered through long-haired pretty boys, not much else phases a guy.

Heard anything award-winning yet, hot shot?

[ NO MOM I'LL BE GOOD PLS WE CAN STILL GET ICECREAM?!]

[tempervale_npc]

I'm afraid I wouldn't know how that goes.

[Well then, the very corner of his lips curling up into a smile.]

Quite a bit, yes. This is going well enough.

[ FINE BUT STOP HITTING YOUR BROTHER, DAMMIT. ]

[general_affairs]

[ Huffs with a brief laugh. ] Lucky, lucky. They turn into divas the longer it gets.

Really, now? Sounds like you might've had a hand in this.
Care to give your adorin' fans a name?

[ HE TOUCHED ME FIRST THIS IS MY SIDEEEEE]

[tempervale_npc]

Perhaps we have. My kin and I, that is.

[He nods.] Temper Vale. And you are?

[ ...oh. In that case, pimpsmack a motherfucker until he reco'nizes. That is YOUR side. ]

[general_affairs]

How'd you pull a stunt like this one off, yo? Pretty big for a few regular joes.

Temper, huh? Call me Reno.

[...brb dying XD ]

[tempervale_npc]

It would be quite a stunt in that case, yes. But we aren't like you.

[He inclines his head slightly.]

A pleasure, Reno.

[ :D /great parenting skills ]

[general_affairs]

Oooh, mysterious. I like that. [ Amused snark. ]

Same. Too bad I don't see you around here more often.

[t-the very best XD ]

[tempervale_npc]

Is it? I don't intend to be a mystery. You just haven't asked the questions.

[He hums a thoughtful, quiet sound.] No, I suppose I've kept to myself. But I've seen all of you quite a bit.

[ I WANNA BE. THE VERY BEST. ]

[general_affairs]

You're gonna make me work for it, huh? Alright..so, what answer'd I get if I asked whether or not you're human?

[ I bet you've been watching him undress, you perverts. Reno feels violated. He wants an adult. ] That's a shame, sounds like you lot know how to have a good time.

[ LIKE NO ONE -EVER- WAS ]

[tempervale_npc]

I imagine you'd get the true one. I'm not human, not anymore, though I was, a long time ago.

[Hey, there's nothing on tv in this place. People have to improvise.] Others might disagree, but I know what interests me.

[ TO CATCH THEM IS MY REAL TEST ]

[general_affairs]

Traded in your soul for a better model, huh?

[ Well. In that case, he'll try to make it interesting. :c ] Into social experiments and chaos? You know, some people might start callin' ya mad scientists.

[TO TRAIN THEM IS MY CAUSE]

[tempervale_npc]

No, we are not. There's very little science to us. But it is our nature to see the truth about people. And truth is easiest seen in the direst of moments.

[ I WILL TRAVEL ACROSS THE LAND ]

[general_affairs]

Depends on who you're tryin' to get it from.

Some people're better at hiding things than others.
[ Take Reno, for instance. He isn't running around like a headless chicken. ]

[SEARCHING FAR AND WIDE]

[tempervale_npc]

We all have our facades and pretenses. Some are better at holding theirs together. Ah, but that is telling too, don't you think?
