[Oh look at Neuro, he's back at that desk, hands neatly in front of him and leaning back in his chair.]

Dead Master.... I wish to talk to you.

It was merely another joke on my part. I was hoping you'd catch that one. [He gestured around to the empty room.] Business isn't exactly booming right this second.

[Well, that's because he's turned down like four people today but that's besides the point. AND IF THERE WAS A MYSTERY AROUND, HE'D COME RUNNING.]

[hugmyscythe]

There is no reason,grand or mundane,

that murder would not be

committed over. [SO SHE DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY HIS BUSINESS ISN'T BOOMING]

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

Hoh- because the tasks I've been given aren't puzzles. I could easily walk into the room and point out the flaw they've missed.

I need to have a challenging mystery, a puzzle that will fill my stomach at least a little bit. So that's why I've turned down these other murder cases.

last tag for the night

[hugmyscythe]

[Ugh, that sounds...so different from where she's at. The humans in her world are either always the perpetrators or always the victims, and it's ridiculously obvious to tell which ones are which, at least for her. Shooter's got more trouble with that.] What makes a mystery challenging,
to someone like you?

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

[Ahaa.... she's just full of good questions today.]

The complexity of it. You saw it before, did you not? When that girl who continued to run her mouth about being a queen of a website. She changed into an odd form and even tried to attack me.

The intense negative energy coming from those criminals are enough to change them into what they really are. Those are the mysteries I go for.

[hugmyscythe]

[She knew about those intense negative emotions turning people into--or rather, revealing--what they truly are. For some, the change can be much more obvious, much more physical, taking on appropriately henious characteristics. For others...not so much. Like her. She didn't change physically when torturing him, but she certainly did reveal her 'true colors' to him, as someone less than human, when the all she wanted was vengence. Again, the thought came up that she was just like....] What they really are. [Monsters.]He he he.

How good for you that

there is a hideous sideto them, no?

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

[Aha... Neuro just stared at her for a moment.]

Those kinds of complicated puzzles just so happen to tag along with those kinds of people.

[He really isn't concerned with good and evil traits, he's only interested in these mysteries.]

[hugmyscythe]

...You would findthe ugly,
the bad,

anywhere.

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

And what would you say differentiates the bad from the good, Dead Master?

[Kinda wants to know her thoughts on the matter!!]

[hugmyscythe]

There is little

logic to it,

when moral reasoning itselfis based on the emotions
of the individualthat create the boundaries between

the good and the bad.

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

Hoh.... I see. [OH BUT DEAD-CHAAANN....]

You still haven't told me your thoughts on the matter. Hm, oh well. I'm mostly interested in how individuals can evolve from such a state of merely being good or bad.

In hell, a "good person" is an individual who scoops out the wounds from someone else so they're unable to heal properly.

[hugmyscythe]

He he he. Indeed, that is much too

kind.

[She...doesn't like showing her sadistic side all the time. But she's rolling with it for now because HEY WHY NOT she thinks she's an awful person for many reasons.]

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

[Hey but he likes it when she agrees with him.]

Right? I thought so too.

[....Oh hey-] You know Dead Master, before you wouldn't have allowed me to converse with you in a locked conversation. But this has been locked the whole time.

[hugmyscythe]

[She's admitting that she agrees with him to humor him. That's about it.] Of course it is locked.

The initial topic

is only between us.

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

Ah! Does this mean we get to have more locked conversations in the future?

[hugmyscythe]

...We shall see. [She does lock conversations from time to time. It's not secret from many other comm members that she likes to fight--but if he ever brings up or threatens to bring up this torture, she'd lock it.]

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

[Hoh- if he ever finds that out, he'd probably use that just to get her to lock it.]

Excellent. I believe I've brought up all the subjects I wanted to. Anything else on your mind before I end this call?

[hugmyscythe]

[He can probably put two and two together...]

Of course not. I wish as little

to do with you

as possible, remember? [Even if her opinion of him has improved--!!]

[brainisout.livejournal.com]

[Of course he can, nothing can hide from these eyes!!]

Hoh- I do recall that. Now then, if you'll just fill out that form for three years from now....

[NEURO STOP, STOP JOKING.]

1/2

[hugmyscythe]

[Unlike before, when she didn't want to associate with him because she thought he only wanted to solve whatever mysteries she was keeping from him, now it's just that she dislikes how easily she slips into this bad side of her around him. It's different's around, say, someone like Eris, who she kinda-sorta wants to impress.]
