007; in a mood

[demnify.livejournal.com]

[the Master appears on the Astral Plane, purring incredibly loudly]

Well, isn't it nice that all that business is over? I've been a bit busy dealing with the aftermath since then - ahhh, no matter. No one wants to hear about that, do they?

Lapis, Lazuli? I must regretfully decline any further doses of what you gave me - however beneficial, I rather like keeping my temper in control.


Now. The rest of you lot... I must pardon my previous behaviour - if I've growled, snarled, or generally seemed less than mannerly... well. I regretfully state that I was under a bit of a modification that made me significantly more hostile.

[nod!] We'll try working out the side-effects, though~ Thanks for helping us test it.

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Of course, it was relatively nothing - I benefited from the use as well.

[realitymods]

[giggle, then pause and tilt their heads] We need to talk to you and Gene privately, by the way.

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Really?


Mmm. Soon? If he's somewhere on this bloody plane, I could sniff him out...

[realitymods]

If you could, we'd appreciate it! We'd like to talk to you both when you have time~ It's very important!

[demnify.livejournal.com]

[quietly mumbled to himself]

...he still smells of smoke and cheap alcohol...

[he does, indeed, begin to sniff at the air for the unmistakable smell of Gene. D:]

[realitymods]

[8D Will be happily waiting for the big kittyMaster to find Gene for SECRET MEETING]

[didorothy]

That it, then?

I'm not going to apologise for something I did while under an altered state of mind, Mr. Tyler. You're an officer - you must've seen people on drugs, how they often do things that they cannot control or do not recall?

[godforsakenly.livejournal.com]

A 'bit of modification'?

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Just something for my claws.

[godforsakenly.livejournal.com]

You are in contact with those who govern this place, then?

[demnify.livejournal.com]

You could say that. Why, are you interested in getting in touch?

[godforsakenly.livejournal.com]

I have questions that none of the other -- inhabitants have been able to answer. Perhaps you could help me.

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Ahhh. Then they would be beneficial to you.

I could help, yes... what would I get in return?

[he grins pleasantly, not even bothering to hide the fangs]

[godforsakenly.livejournal.com]

[he raises an eyebrow, unamused.] You would be spared a blade through the heart.

[demnify.livejournal.com]

[he chuckles]

I'm afraid that isn't a convincing enough bargain.

[godforsakenly.livejournal.com]

[he decides to play along for now. He's impatient and tired of receiving cryptic responses from all sides -- he just wants some answers ] What is your price, then?

[demnify.livejournal.com]

[he appears to muse for a few moments before purring]

One favour in which I may call upon you to, without question, do as I command. I may call upon you at any point, regardless of when I want it.

And if you go back on it? Well... I most certainly have ways to make you regret ever going back on a deal.

[didorothy]

I've also seen how sociopaths don't show any remorse, and how good they are at playing at empathy.

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Now, now, Mr. Tyler. I am perfectly capable of showing remorse and regret, and I am insulted in that you think my empathy towards the death of your friend was faked.

Do you really think that if I were in my proper state of mind and had killed him, that I would have brought you to his body? It is a pity that I behaved in such a manner, yes, that I couldn't control myself, but I feel there is no further need for me to dwell upon what I've done.

[godforsakenly.livejournal.com]

[ He hates the sound of that damn purring, but he just clenches his jaw and doesn't comment on it[

And what exactly does this 'favor' entail?

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Nothing that would cause harm to you, I assure you. After all, I doubt anyone would agree to something with potential bodily harm.

[theguv.livejournal.com]

[ohmygosh it's a Gene!] ...the hell are you lot doing here?

[demnify.livejournal.com]

[oh my gawd amazing]

I was told they needed to speak with us.
