48. Evil is sometimes complicated [Video]

[vile_queen]

[Carmen looks slightly at a loss as she looks at something off screen before glancing back at the PCD she's just turned on.]

Has anyone else received... items? With the disappearance of the elevator? As in, appearing just moments before the elevator vanished. Entirely unasked for items, as well. Perhaps it is a... No. There's a note.

[There's a

[turn_a_blindeye]

I didn't receive anything, no.

What is it? A gift from a secret admirer?

Sometimes she wonders about why she talks with him. >.>

[vile_queen]

Not secret at all. The note is rather clear. And most inconvenient.

Because he's vaguely sexy? Because he might just save her from Saul by taking Lezard off her hands?

[turn_a_blindeye]

Oh, so I'm guessing the inconvenience is that it isn't Saul who left you the nice gift, hm?

True. And he's intelligent.

[vile_queen]

Precisely.

[Private//Unhackable]

One of the pieces is a male nude statue. It seems something that would appeal to you.

On occasion. Rarely >.>

[turn_a_blindeye]

Ah, I see. Building a harem?

[Private//Unhackable]

...Oh, really~ [insert amused tone here] Such interesting admirers you have. And you don't want to keep it--I'm surprised.

Now what would I do with something like that?

Every now and then.

[vile_queen]

I do not need a harem. It would be needlessly complicated.

[Private//Unhackable]

[She looks like she's got the beginnings of a headache at the amused tone.] I see nothing appealing in the risk of being attacked by Saul. Most especially in misguided jealousy.

You seek out porn. Why is this different?

Maybe. If you're lucky.

[turn_a_blindeye]

Mm...I don't know. It sounds fun. More men to do your bidding, right?

[Private//Unhackable]

You need to invest in a leash for him, it sounds like.

It's a little less travel-sized.

So far she's been fairly lucky.

[vile_queen]

I do not need additional aid in that area. There is a difference between a harem and ...assistants.

[Private//Unhackable]

A leash? I do not understand.

It could stay in your house. I am asking that you please take this. You are the only one in the city that I can imagine would want it, and I certainly cannot keep it. Nor do I wish to keep it.

I wonder when her luck will run out?

[turn_a_blindeye]

I don't know. It sounds like both may be able to "assist" you when you're in need.

[Private//Unhackable]

In this case, train him.

How big is he? I'm not really sure I have room for him. And you know, the kids sometimes visit...I wouldn't want them asking any uncomfortable questions.

It will be a very, very sad day.

[vile_queen]

I do not have such a need. Perhaps you should seek a harem.

[Private//Unhackable]

I am. It is slow and careful work.

He is lifesize. Please, Kakashi. I do not know what else to do with it. I do not even know why he sent this. And I have a feeling they are... used to such things where you are concerned.

woe

[turn_a_blindeye]

...Too much work, not enough candidates.

[Private//Unhackable]

I guess I should thank you for that.

[chuckles a little] What's your idea of lifesize? Saul-size?

Imagine what he will think when I tell him you're sending me presents... But, since you asked so nicely, maybe I can find a spot for your admirer. ...Maybe. What do I get for taking your ...unwanted treasures?

[vile_queen]

Really. I would think you would have chosen several by now.

[Private//Unhackable]

Perhaps. We shall see what comes of it.

[She sighs.] The statue is as tall as the man was in person. I know not if everything else is accurate and I care not.

...What are you asking for it?
