Event Fourteen.





Roses bloom and cease to be,
But we shall the Christ-child see.





t's very, very cold. It's cold enough that you'll see your breath fog in the air before you, that goosebumps appear on your arms and legs and a chill goes up your spine. You're inside, in a huge palace with sweeping arches and rooms, but it's no real shelter from the cold -- it's just as cold inside as out.

There's a throne room, a kitchen, various rooms and even a dungeon to be explored -- and outside, a frigid, frozen garden, a lake that's naturally frozen over, and miles, and miles of snow as far as the eye can see.

But be careful while you explore. The snowflake soldiers are naturally dangerous, but even more dangerous than that...there's that creeping sensation of numbness going up your arm, a pang through your chest, and the slow, slow freezing from the inside out.

Try not to leave any of your friends behind, okay? Even if they might look a bit too uncannily like some of the statues hanging around for decoration when they're frozen over.

[ Vriska glances him over -- noting the ears, so like her own! -- and finally smiles. ]

Thanks. Cool sword! That said, what the hell did you just call me?

[ what's a "lass" ]

[He's definitely missing the horns, but he still has the pointy ears.]

I called you "lass". You're a young girl, aren't you?

[She sounds like one.]

Yyyyes? Sort of. That's a complicated question.

[ curious, she gets all up in his face a little bit. ]

You don't sound older than me. Or look it! What's your deal?

I have been getting comments like that here. It is true I'm young for a demon, but in human years I'm 2542.

[It's just a fact that demons age incredibly slowly.]

[ For some reason that wins a grin, bright and sunny. ]

Hey, me too! I mean, not that exact age, it wasn't possible for me to keep track. But I know aaaall about looking young but existing for an incredibly long time. Sometimes the humans around here are weird about it.

[His head tilts in interest.]

Oh? What are you?

I don't usually have this much contact with humans. The ones here are much easier to deal with than the ones at home. I can proudly call them my comrades.

A troll! And also dead. Though even if I hadn't died I would have lived an incredibly long life in comparison to humans.

Anyway, same! I mean, I only ever knew like four humans total before I got here. Sometimes it feels a little weird that so much of the population of Chroma is human. But for whatever it's worth, I like the people here, too.
promissum: (Thoughtful)

[This girl doesn't look like what he imagines trolls to be from all the books. But he does feel like he's talked to somebody about troll aliens before.]

Do you know a boy in sunglasses? We spoke about trolls an aliens a bit.

The majority of humans isn't too strange. They usually populate Earth, and this doesn't seem to be the Netherworld.

Dave! Yeah, we're from the same place, in a manner of speaking.

[ a beat. ] That ... cannot be the name of your planet. Are you actually from some kind of underworld? Not that I don't believe it, that's just ....

[ .... decisively: ] Surprisingly kickass.
promissum: (Listening)

[Underworld this, underworld that, it's just the Netherworld to him.]

It's simply called the Netherworld. I instruct dead sinful human souls on how to best earn their way to their reincarnation. You could call it a kind of underworld, if you'd like.

[ what ]

Whoa. Like some kind of lord of the underworld? Or Netherworld. Whatever.
promissum: (Declaration)

[personal profile] promissum 2018-11-28 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that would be the President of the Netherworld. I am a Prinny Instructor.

[ ... ]

I have this weird feeling like if I keep asking you questions we'll be here for an hour discussing your backstory. Man, it's weird to have this whole "you're obviously not human so let me ask eighty pointless questions about you" thing turned back on me!

So forget that! Instead, why don't you tell me your name and we can go fight things?
promissum: (Smile)

[personal profile] promissum 2018-11-29 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
You can ask whatever you'd like. I don't mind answering questions.

My name is Valvatorez. Did you see another one of those knights somewhere?

I'm Vriska! And yeah, I did. They seem to be wandering around so they can catch people and toss them in the dungeons. [ she makes a face. ] Actually, it's been a while since I went down there. Want to come with me?

That is unjust and unearned sentencing! Lead the way, lass. [Val, you already know her name.]

[ That gets a flicker of a grin. She lets the "lass" thing go; for all she knows it's another weird formality thing, like the way Izuku still calls her "Serket-san." ]

Big on justice, huh?

[He can count on one hand the number of people he actually uses names with. He's going to keep it that way.]

I'm big on rules. There should be something in place.

[Val is not exactly a model demon.]
