.: 070 | I just keep getting better!

[saynotobadtouch]

Zelos, hope you don't mind; I've adopted a kid.

Mm, competition's going pretty well. I won my one-vs-one fight with Ashton. Uh ... I just ... hope I didn't hurt him.

Oi! Anise! I watched you out there, too. What the heck kind of fight was that?

Be careful what you are doing with my 'nephew'.

[saynotobadtouch]

*eyes narrow* I didn't realize it's a problem for me to offer to protect the kid.

[demonthiefking]

It is not, but I have taken a liking to him. I do not want him hurt. I do not really know you, so I am merely warning you.

[saynotobadtouch]

You realize the same goes for you, right?

Honestly, it's offensive as hell that you'd imply that I'd hurt a kid, especially one that I even just said that I've 'adopted.' Last I checked, that means I'm going to make sure nothing happens to him. Moron.

[demonthiefking]

Yes, I realize that.

...How should I know how you act? Most of the creatures I know are extremely untrustworthy, so it is not a surprise that I am suspicious of everyone. Fool.

[saynotobadtouch]

Clearly, you need to find some better company.

[demonthiefking]

I am a demon. I generally am among demons. Almost all demons are highly untrustworthy. What am I to do, spend my time in the human world? If I were to try to cross over there in this body I would most likely be stopped by barriers.

[saynotobadtouch]

Hmm. Well, I guess that would do it. Hah, though, really, a lot of humans are much better in that regard ... I've known plenty who would kill someone for just existing. ...

[demonthiefking]

Demons are not any nobler than humans. We... to tell the truth, we are just basically humans with longer lifespans and more impressive powers.

[saynotobadtouch]

Well, I guess that's true. People can suck, no matter what they are.

[demonthiefking]

Yes... it is almost sad. Sometimes I wish my life was not so much of a kill or be killed situation. I am... I enjoy what I do, make no mistake, but it gets to be tiring and paranoia-inducing.

[saynotobadtouch]

Mm. So does getting locked away ...

[demonthiefking]

I understand that feeling. I was locked away inside a human's body, and barely let out.

[saynotobadtouch]

Hm. You know, I'm starting to wonder if a requirement to being picked for this place is that your life had to be shit beforehand. You know, so that you're already used to it.

[demonthiefking]

Quite possibly. If that is the case, I am surprised that certain beings are not here... in any case. Your name was... Luke, correct? You are not so bad...
