Do you prefer "mister CEO" or "CEO, sir"?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I prefer Intensity.

[Hello~ Who is this BARiTONES who is actually tall enough to be of interest to this noodle?]

[innerdaemons]

[ who knows but he probably seems extremely legit. he smiles, and offers a hand for a shake. ]

Intensity, then. My name is Absinthe, and it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Offers a business handshake in return]

Still going with the alcohol theme, I see. Does you think that one suits you?

[innerdaemons]

I'm not one to break a theme, especially one so fitting. And I think it suits me well enough.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I guess only time will tell.

New arrival? This information might seem out there if you didn't get the primer about Hell before this.

[innerdaemons]

I must say it's been -- educational. I've been told of all the basics of this place, of course, but the finer details ... well, there's a lot to go over.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

How's your understanding of the different princes of Hell?

[innerdaemons]

Well -- this Asmodeous fellow seems like a peach. But I hadn't heard much of him before recently.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Might be a bit of an eye roll. No offense. He's just amazed at how bad information passing is around here]

There are two factions at play in this production. Hell, led by Asmodeus the Prince of Vengeance and his underling Mukuro who hasn't shown up in a while. And Heaven lead by Pythia, Prince of Lies, though you'll probably see her minion Exael around more often than her.

They toss us here and have us fight to see whose faction we join. In the end, Asmodeus wants us to become his Vengeance minions so he can amass a greater underling base.

I don't know what the hell Pythia wants from all this.

[innerdaemons]

From what I have read, I'll go ahead and assume you all haven't exactly had a chance to have a one-on-one with this "Pythia"?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Yes and no. She pretended to be God's messenger first so of course the conversation went in a different direction. Also people were more concerned with stopping the gray disease than having a productive chat.

Though I hear you do get to meet with her if you reject Asmodeus's monkey paw wish and take Heaven's Blessing.

[innerdaemons]

Do you have any sort of inclination yet as to which you'd choose?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Option C -- oh wait, that's someone else's plan.

Option D. I'm going to overthrow the current establishment and remake it in any way I see fit and still upholds whatever multiverse functionality that is required of this place.

[innerdaemons]

[ -- he laughs, taken off guard but not seeming derisive of the idea. ]

Such ambition. I suppose I should have expected as much, considering your nickname.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Name. Not nickname.

[innerdaemons]

Is "CEO" your name?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

No. My title.

[A grin]

Obviously.

But why go back to a name of a guy who let himself get kidnapped and brain-washed by some has-been demons? That doesn't sound like a recipe for success.

[innerdaemons]

Ah. You're someone who would choose to discard that version of yourself entirely, then? I find that commendable.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

You're fairly new here, yes. Have you taken any memories?

[innerdaemons]

Only one. I've found the abilities far more interesting.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

The abilities are far more versatile. Especially the ones on your unit, yes?

But if you don't mind sharing, any huge revelation from that memory? It cost a pretty penny. And even more to get the whole set.

[innerdaemons]

It was very brief, and extremely uninformative. I found myself wishing I'd saved the points instead.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Precisely. Unless you're gambling for a certain skill, most memories are just a waste of time.

[innerdaemons]

Has that been your experience with your own memories, then?
