23rd Appetizer

[Video]
[In a dimly lit room, the video pipes in with a steady thrum of long fingernails drumming on the arm of a tall regal looking chair. His fingers are coated with a dark viscous fluid, but he pays no attention at all to the blood staining his skin or pooling on the ground at his feet.

Leaning back against the plush fabric of the throne, Rido Kuran,  a newly appointed Prince of Hell, begins to  laugh.]

How.... delicious.

[The Master is SO not amused. He's like. Anti-amused. Okay, and I suppose his name is Koschei this week because that's a demonic sort of name. Also he has snake eyes because I SAY SO. And Eric Roberts is the funniest Master Of All Time.]

Must you, my Lord? I mean, I do understand it's your prerogative as a Prince of Hell, I do but it's only alerting those Holy Idiots to your presence. I mean, why not just send them a memo outlining any and all plans you have while you're at it.

Begging your pardon and no offence meant, of course.

Nothing can kill Me... so what do I care if they know of My presence.

Besides, you should look forward to the impending conflict as I do. Or are you getting weak, Koschei~?

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[neverendingbeat.livejournal.com]

Right, of course, no, nevermind tactics.

Of course not my Lord. I'm an eager beaver. [This. So very po-faced.]

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Don't presume to know what I'm doing. You should know better.

But I'm glad to hear you're excited. I'm sure you won't disappoint Me...

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[neverendingbeat.livejournal.com]

Ah, forgive me again. I should have assumed this was part of your plan.

The moment you give me an order I will drop everything less important and hop to it. Or, naturally, if it looks like war.

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Keep an eye on the network and report to me when they make themselves known.

Prepare yourself. It should be fun.

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[neverendingbeat.livejournal.com]

The angels? They're rubbish. Or do you mean specifically when they declare war?

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Of course they are, but war approaches. I want to know all of their movements. Understand?

[Okay, fine, Rido, here, have an email:

Cain (http://misterblackbird.livejournal.com/115615.html): Looks like an Angel of Death to me. He has a nice little chat about the upcoming war with another angel. Naturally, they're aware of this whole tedious business it.

"Preachy" (http://holymadonna.livejournal.com/43751.html): Holier-than-thou sort, and she hasn't said anything useful yet.

"Useless" (http://perspectiveguy.livejournal.com/7035.html): I'm not sure why I'm bothering to link you to him, only I do like to be thorough.]

That's it so far. Anything else, my Lord?

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

For now, no. Just keep your eyes and ears open. I want to know everything the moment it happens.

Until then, go out. Enjoy yourself.

[Private/Unhackable/Video]

[neverendingbeat.livejournal.com]

Naturally, my Lord. Thank you.

[And he goes back to watching Eastenders. No, actually.]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you're enjoying yourself.

voice

[council-king.livejournal.com]

What's there not to enjoy? Especially with such lovely sacrifices at my feet?

voice

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

There are plenty more in this City, just ripe to be thrown at your feet.

voice

[council-king.livejournal.com]

As it should be~ as it was, and will be again.

The time is fast approaching~. I haven't been so excited in such a very long time...

voice

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

It's been far too long. I've been bored, as has my little Umi. You know how troublesome she is when she's bored.

I'll come to you when you call, but for now, I want to hunt.

voice

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Telling me your schedule? You do remember your station, don't you. Or do you need a reminder?

Bring me back something and I'll forgive your bad manners.

Re: voice

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

No reminders are necessary, my Lord. I apologize.

Whatever you desire, my Lord.

voice

[council-king.livejournal.com]

That's better.

[Private]
Afterward, I want a report on our enemies movements. You can handle that, can't you.

private voice

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

Of course I can.

private voice

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Good. Don't keep me waiting long...

[princess-crow.livejournal.com]

[Is everyone looking ridiculous today?]

How disgusting.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Disgusting?

[princess-crow.livejournal.com]

The blood.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

You're quite right~. There's hardly enough.

[princess-crow.livejournal.com]

Everyone has to act more ridiculous today.

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

You look very much so, sire.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

[Rido chuckles softly, the sound rolling across the stillness of the room.]

You've been absent lately, Ivan~. Haven't been avoiding me, have you?

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

No, sire, never. I've been traveling to the human world for souls.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

And what tribute have you brought me~?

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

More victims for the second circle.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

It's a start~...

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

Only a start...?

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Yes. What's a few souls when there's a whole City overhead? Why should I settle for less?

Or are you happy with the scraps we've been given...

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

I thought I rounded up a nice number...

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Ivan... you're dreaming small.

Tell Me. How long will this 'nice number' keep you occupied?

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

... Not very long.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

That's right. Such a poor thing, starving as you do. Hardly fair at all, is it~?

And these humans break so easily, don't they? [His voice lowers to an enticing whisper.] Wouldn't you want something to play with that's more virginal and pure? An angel to play with and break at your leisure.

Wouldn't that be more fun? How long do you think they'll last under your loving attentions?

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

An angel...? What a genius idea... That will certainly prove to be a challenge...

[council-king.livejournal.com]

I need demons who are up to the 'challenges' I set in front of them. Ones to rally to My cause and My banner in the upcoming conflict.

You are up to the task, aren't you?

[hidesinrestroom.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes. Of course! You won't be disappointed, my lord.

not here...

[rehymenator]

[Watching you, too.]

Re: not here...

[council-king.livejournal.com]

[Bring it on, flyboy~]

[jiyuna_togabito]

Enjoying your lunch break?

[voice]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

What, these two things? A mere appetizer~.

[voice]

[jiyuna_togabito]

[He sighs.]

I could never get into your games of eating one's prey. Just not my thing.

[voice]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

I'd be careful about admitting such a thing if I were you~. Our kind isn't very forgiving about weaknesses, and it might be taken as such.

[voice]

[jiyuna_togabito]

Heh, is that a challenge?
