1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
I don't actually care for cheese.

2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrot Top?
Carrot Top. He's an actual human, and therefore ought to know better. (Plus I like his eyes.)

3. What time is it where you are?
Nightmare Time

"Knife expert," Nny said with a mocking grin. "Are you anything but a self-propelled ego? 'Hard to hurt' just sounds like a challenge. Like fun."

"Well, I've had ages to practice. Although technically that was the last me, not this me. But I have all the memories of the first me, I'm just calmer now.

"And I've survived the wrath of the god Loki. Heavenly fire."

Corinthian smiles.

"Gods." Nny grimaced and would have spat, if he hadn't found that habit to be utterly repulsive. "They're not as impressive as they think they are. But is anyone? Everyone thinks they are a fucking prodigy, and everyone should fucking BOW DOWN to them!!! Every new applicant in here tries to astonish everyone with how awesome they supposedly are and it makes me sick. They should change the damned application to ask people what their weaknesses are, only they'd find a way to turn that into bragging too."

"Yeah, gods are petty, stupid jerks.

"I ripped out Loki's eyes for that, you know. They were nice."

Damien pursed his lips. "I might be more impressed if I thought you were capable of more than small words and short sentences. Tell me, does two and two still give you trouble? Was the first grade not kind to you?"

"This version of me is still only a few years old, alright? And anyway, no one said I had to write an essay. These are questions, not essay questions."

"This 'version' of you, then, should maybe take more time before entering the big bad world." He examined his fingernails before continuing. A small speck of dirt had held more interest for him than Corinthian. "At the very least, a thicker skin will serve you well," Damien said when he'd removed the offending particle.

"I have to get experience somehow."

Kurama hadn't smelled a nightmare - a real nightmare, not those flawed little fear demons that skittered around the edges of human society, eating minor terrors, causing little bits of chaos. No, this was a high-class nightmare, a respectable demon. Probably a threat, almost certainly dangerous, but intriguing.

"Harder to hurt now that you're here," he said casually from the doorway. "No one dies in these parts. Not for lack of trying, mind."

"A shame, really. I haven't eaten yet."

"Such a pity it is." He narrowed his eyes slightly. "Did you come here, or were you brought?"

"It seemed like an interesting enough place to come. Not sure I was right, though, considering that most of the people here seem to be jerks."

"Being hard to hurt and good with knives hardly proves you're useless," I remark dryly. "My brother founded his own religion, and he had flippers where most people have arms."

"Useful ehough, if you need backup in a fight."

"I might give you that," I concede. "Except that outright physical fighting is hopelessly unsubtle. And besides, would you be *reliable* backup?"

"If I liked you, yes."

"Another knife expert," Mathis said, completely bland and unimpressed. He had found that it was most effective not to show either interest or fear to those who considered themselves lethal, unless he could be sure of their alliances. "Do you work for somebody, or are you for hire?"

"I work for my lord Dream, of course. I'm a nightmare."

"Oh?" An eyebrow went up. "I'd say you're quite an impressive nightmare, indeed, to visit us when we're not asleep."

"I work in the waking world sometimes, when he has things that need doing. But yes, I am a nightmare."
