[o1] ✦ Laughing off everything ✧

[lordoffabulous]

Characters: Ghirahim (lordoffabulous) and his roomies at room 1-02, or whoever else!
Setting: 1: Room 1-02, 2 wandering the halls and floors; exploring! Also, this is post the present event, just to give a little timeline.
Format: Baby I can go any way you can go, but action spam is generally faster~
Summary: Ghirahim wakes up in the Tower. He is not a happy Demon Lord, not at all. He then proceeds to go exploring, hoping to learn a bit more about his surroundings.
Warnings: ... Ghirahim. Sparkles. Glam. Fabulous. In all seriousness, MAJOR spoilers probably IN THE FIRST THREAD for Skyward Sword!

[1 - Room 1-02]

[ The sleep paralysis hadn't frightened him. Truthfully, NOTHING frightened Ghirahim; he was rather a bit of a madman in his own right, and to be frightened by something that he had been attempting to achieve in the first place, albeit in a sort of different way, would make his position to his Master rather... unnecessary.

Speaking of his Master? He was furious. How dare that Sky Child stand in his way, time and time again? He SHOULD have killed him. ... But truthfully, he had failed on that front, as a servant and as his Master's second in command. Because... he didn't kill Link yet.

Frustrating. Aggravating. So many other words. But he'd deal, for now.

So when he awoke, the first thing he did was read the letter, crumple it up, and laugh. If his roommates were awake or there to see it, they would notice Ghirahim begin digging through his trunk, continuing to laugh quietly. He wasn't bothered by the suit, to be honest.

He's definitely one of the stranger looking types with that haircut, one pointed ear and the one round one... but if you thought that was odd, you haven't seen much yet. Anyone with any sort of extra senses will be able to feel he isn't human in the least; far, far from it. But one can't QUITE pin what they might feel, it's between something... demonic, but not quite. ]

[2 - Exploring and teleporting about the Tower ]

[ After he'd had some time to clean up, it was time to figure this place out. (Read: put on his make up, change his clothes--though he didn't find the suit terribly irritating, he DID like his usual one more--and then proceed to, of course, brush his hair. Lipstick, eyeliner, the whole nine yards.) Somehow, he felt tired, but that was fine. It was a new day. He would ascertain his surroundings before making any decisions on how to punish whoever was foolish enough to 'save' him.

Wherever this was, he set off from the dorms, quietly exploring the other floors. By foot?

Oh, of course not! Not if he could help it, anyway. Once he's gotten his bearings, you may be surprised to find a man teleporting (looking just like this, clothes to how he appears in front of you with magic) in front of you in the rooms where teleportation inside them, but not outside, is possible.

In fact, he seems to be looking to have a bit of a... conversation. ]

You, there. Indulge me for a moment, won't you? These collars. HOW do you get them off? I realize they went to the trouble of matching my outfit, which I can certainly appreciate, but it's... constricting.

[ ooc: please specify a floor and 1 or 2 in the title! ♥ Also, again, please tell me if spoilers bother you and I will try to keep away from them! ]

[Didn't need horns? Romeo frowned but then nodded, after all he had seen lots of strange things here. He was a little frightened though, if he was a demon. Because demons worked for the devil and were really bad... He doesn't mention the clashing with his look thing... because he isn't really sure what he means...]

Well if you are a demon? [He pulls a face] You're a good one right? You wont eat anyone's souls? Because everyone here are good, except the bad people but we don't know where they are!

[lordoffabulous]

[ ...

I'm sorry Romeo, but he is positively going to die of laughter if you keep this up. His response here is to laugh, truly, because oh my goodness he cannot handle this tiny human, this is hilarious. Humans are just so ridiculous. ]

Is that the story you humans have concocted about the War? Really? Hah... why am I not surprised you still quake in fear and worry? Of course, it's with good reason, really; we're better than you.

[ Oh, humans. SO SILLY AND PATHETIC. ]

If I wanted to take someone's soul, I would be direct about that, and certainly not a human's, human souls alone are quite worthless. If anything, I would just kill anyone who bothered me~! Taking someone's soul is actually quite a time-consuming process, the enchantments are very strenuous.

I hate strenuous activity. Also, I would not eat souls, they have no real... flavor, I am sure. Blood is much better, you know.

[myblueskies]

[What war? Maybe he came from a different world, because Romeo had never heard of a war with demons in it before, though some people did say that Napoleon had been a demon...

He frowns though looking angrier the more the demon spoke.] You shouldn't eat blood either! Or kill people! It's not a very nice thing to do! And human souls aren't worthless! They are the most important part of people, and that's why everyone has to be good so they have good souls and can go to heaven and be friends with God! [It is probably worth noting Romeo has never read a bible, and tended to interpret what the priests said in church in his own way]

[lordoffabulous]

[ My, my, the short little human is something else. PFFFT. ]

Child, do you really think that I care what you say? I have killed countless humans, and believe me, the only things worth any while are Goddesses and Demons. You humans throw yourselves at the feet of those with more power, praying for protection and help because you are weak.

[ He will just. Be dematerializing the hairbrush back into his trunk and rematerialize a comb in his hand. His hair? Very important, you see. ]

[myblueskies]

Humans aren't weak! [He is quietly horrified that he has killed countless humans, that means he is a really bad person! And Romeo doesn't like the idea that he has to share a room with a bad person! Especially since he might hurt America or Protoman. Though Protoman isn't human either, and doesn't like humans.]

Human's are brave and strong! If you met weak ones then just can't have met any. And killing people is bad, you shouldn't do that!

[lordoffabulous]

[ He laughs. And laughs, and laughs some more, disappearing from where he is, only to reappear completely with his make-up on from near the doorway, when he then speaks again. ]

Little child, you may be a fool, but if a prey animal values its life, what does it do? It runs, or it runs to something stronger than it and BEGS for mercy.

Humans do exactly that. To be brave is the same as to be stupid, dear boy. I am a demon, do you think I care about the life of something so insignificant as a tiny human? I am immortal; humans die quickly, they live short and foolish.

[ Here, he just snaps his fingers, and the trunk latches itself, all the objects used now back inside, as he's finished putting on all his make up and whatnot. ]

If anything, you should be bowing to me and begging for my forgiveness. I have been nothing if not tolerant and magnanimous, after all.

[myblueskies]

[Romeo frowned, this demon should stop laughing at him! It wasn't very nice of him at all! He was also quietly amazed by the magic going on around him, but the anger at the demon was greater.]

I'm not a fool! Humans are just as good as demons! And brave and strong you'll see. There's lots of humans here and they are just as brave and strong as all the not human people.

[He pulls a face, even if he was a little bit scared he wasn't going to show it because then the demon would think he was weak, and he was trying to prove that humans were brave and strong.] You're the one that should be saying sorry sir!

[lordoffabulous]

[ Ghirahim just shrugs, shaking his head. No, he won't stop laughing at you; he, in fact, finds you positively hilarious. He smirks, wholly amused by this situation. ]

My dear boy, do you know who you're talking to...? If I did not find you so amusing, I would have disposed of you by now. Keep insisting that mice will become mighty all you like, that does not change simple human behavior. I know even YOU are afraid. I can very nearly taste your fear.

[ Here, he--yes--licks his lips, and appears behind Romeo, crouching down low, a hand on his shoulder, and he whispers: ]

Tell me, boy... what do YOU fear?

[myblueskies]

[A few months ago Romeo would have been terified, he wouldn't even still be in the room with the scary demon man. But a lot had happened and though Romeo probably wasn't brave, he was more reckless than he had been when he had first woken up here.

So even though he jumped when the demon appeared behind him and whispered to him he just turned round angrily.] I'm not afraid of anything, especially not you. And not the bad people either I'm gonna beat them you'll see.

[lordoffabulous]

Everyone fears something, boy.

[ Ghirahim just smirks, standing again, and brushes his hair to the side before looking down at Romeo thoughtfully. ]

Though I grow rather tired of your naiveté; children are such useless creatures, really. Humans in general, I find, though your front is cute, you should learn some real courage. Slip into something a little more intelligent, won't you? Goodbye. ♥

[ And with a snap of his fingers, that same diamond-like magic removes Romeo from the room, only to rematerialize the boy on the seventeenth floor.

The one with the bloody walls and the screaming, of course.

Have fun down there, Romeo! ]

[myblueskies]

[This tower pretty much is Romeo's worst fear Ghirahim, so he will just pull another face, he doesn't want his new roommate to think he is weak. He is shocked however when he all of a sudden finds himself on floor seventeen.

It takes only a second for him to realise where he is and clap his hands over his ears to block out the screaming. He hurried to the stairs and began to climb up them.

He was now convinced that his new roommate was bad, maybe not as bad as those who had kidnapped them but he definitely was not nice. He would have to warn mister America.

He was a bit scared about having to share a room with a bad demon, but there was nothing he could do so he punched the air.] You gotta keep your spirits up. [Piccolo squeaked his approval, Molly wouldn't let mean bullies like Ghirahim make her sad. Neither would Alfredo. He had to be brave like them!

He continued upwards back towards his room.]

[lordoffabulous]

[ Romeo would no longer find Ghirahim in his room if he DID go looking, he'd instead find it quite UNoccupied.

Perhaps next time~

Though there IS a note on the trunk written in wavey cursive handwriting:

Don't be a nuisance. And don't open things that don't belong to you. ♥

... Yep. ]
