I think that I heard some jokes about parties at the morgue before, but I suspect that you are right. The depths of the earth aren't the most fitting place for such things unless that is your preference. [He seems to be honestly considering the party-location qualities of his territory now. Well done, Ange.]

[entreats]

[ .. Still not entirely sure if he's serious or just stringing her along, but fine, she'll just go along with it - as she always does, in her own deadpan way. ]

I'm glad you're starting to see it my way. It might save you from throwing a party only to have it end up in disaster. It wouldn't be very good for your social life, I bet. [ Yes, she fully well realises her ironic in her deadpan talking about social lives, okay.. ]

[kill_some_time]

A party...? I doubt that I would be very good at hosting one. My presence tends to kill the mood. [One way or another, as this troll is perfectly aware of despite his own deadpan way of saying this.]

Do you go to parties often?

[entreats]

[ oh, 'kill the mood', since he's the king of the dead-- okay, no, don't mind the puns. ]

No, I don't. Not at all, in fact. [ at least she's being honest about being an utter party pooper.. ] It's not my kind of thing. And I don't doubt my presence would probably kill the mood as well.

[kill_some_time]

What is it, then? Your kind of thing...

[entreats]

I can't particularly say I have anything that's 'my kind of thing'.

[ That's.. sort of a sad thing to admit, Ange, but at least she's being honest about it. And fairly shameless in her honesty. ]

[kill_some_time]

So you like 'no thing' in particular? [The way he says it makes it sound odd.]

[entreats]

I guess there are some things that I like, but there aren't things I get really excited about or whatever.

[ in case the lineface doesn't give it away-- but she does eye him, that did sound a little strange, but.. ah, well, maybe he's just overly formal? king of the dead and all. ]

[kill_some_time]

Hmph. I am the same, one could say. Once I could get exited very easily, but that is a phase that I have long grown out of.


Yet I cannot bring myself to say that I hate this world and its beings.

[entreats]

[ 'I have long grown out of'.. she only barely swallows some sort of remark about him sounding like some sort of grandpa. ]

So you're just indifferent to it?

[kill_some_time]

[If she had he would have only taken it as a reason to laugh and point out that, as the one of lack of life and chaos, he is the oldest existing god where he comes from.]

One could say that. Repetition makes even the greatest tragedies taste shallow.

[entreats]

[ .. It's almost odd how she can understand what he's saying in a while. After a while, nothing that keeps happening seems to hurt as much anymore, it's easier to grow indifferent to it. Just like the harsh words she's has to endure all this time.. ]

Yeah, you must've been seeing the same things for a near eternity. [ If he's really king of the dead and all.. ] Sure sounds like it sucks to be you.

[kill_some_time]

[Looking up he smiles in a patient and not unfriendly way.]

Some would say that, yes. But I do not think that I drew the bad lot, no matter what the story says.

[entreats]

So.. you actually like it? [ There might be some faint curiosity in her tone, even if it's mostly just still flat. ]

[kill_some_time]

Why would I not? I find it far more pleasurable to be able to engage in a little sin every now and then than to always have to strife to be a saint. [It amuses him that most people just need to hear 'underworld' to think that it had to have been the 'worst' lot.]

[entreats]

[ .. ah, so it's that kind of answer. She just sighs. ]

Sure, sinning. Sounds like a whole lot of fun. [ Not that Ange is such a saint herself, she knows she's done some bad things, but it's not like she'd talk about sinning that way either. ]

[kill_some_time]

Having a choice is a lot of fun, I would say. It creates for more options when the result is not preordained as one or zero.

I do think that it is perfectly fine to be not always perfect. Good, bad... I know that things are rarely that 'easy'. Everybody is different. Everybody can make their own choice, not once, but over and over again. I think that such a world is okay. [Because it makes things more interesting.]
