Also what the fuck this sounds so weird. He's going to have to rewrite his backstory... Santa mafia, throwing people into ice holes instead of the sea. Yeah, perfect.]
Hmmm... What's the list all about, anyway? A check-in list? Why do they go see the king, anyway? What's he got to say about it? --And why is a king working at a place with a desk? Don't they usually have thrones and stuff?
Yeah! Wow, you got it! It's a check-in list! Um, Master is the king of his domain. So, like, they have to see him when they come in to figure out where they need to go! Um, if he had a throne, where is he going to put all of the paperwork?
They can go to the place to be punished, the place for glory, or, um, the place that just lets them roam around if they didn't meet the requirements for either of the other ones!
[closes my eyes x2 i wish mahito would be normal for 1 second
BUT UNFORTUNATELY HE'S NOT so of course this is very fascinating to him. He uses his elbows to prop himself up further, resting his chin against the bridge of his laced fingers.]
Ah, so it really is a reaper thing, huh? Is your brother some kind of shinigami, then? What is it that you'd be considered, if you check the list but don't bring people in?
[BE NICE TO SLOTH HELLO, don't touch their face. it squishes. it's soft, even if the skin is extremely white. the pushed cheeks make their lips bunch together. so they sound a little funny when they talk.]
[Can't believe Sloth just doomed Gluttony to being badgered YET AGAIN!!]
Wow! I was just talking to someone the other day about how nice it'd be if there were real animals in here! Like birds or something. Cats are good too, though!
I like them okay! I'm use to dogs, I guess. Gluttony really loves cats a lot! I wouldn't bother them without their permission, though! They would probably get kind of touchy if they get hurt!
Um--yeah! [haha] You should probably ask. But I think Wrath and Lust have stolen one of them before! Pride doesn't steal them, but I think they like them.
You're not very good at that, are you. [He says, and then absolutely doesn't explain. Instead, he just reaches up to pat the top of their hooded noggin.]
Anyway! I wouldn't wanna push my limits with that one. [Yet.] I'm not surprised those two would, though. I mean, what's not to like about cats, right?

[Why does he have so many QUESTIONS.]
no subject
Yeah! Wow, you got it! It's a check-in list! Um, Master is the king of his domain. So, like, they have to see him when they come in to figure out where they need to go! Um, if he had a throne, where is he going to put all of the paperwork?
That's why he has a desk!
no subject
Anyway, he's just nodding along to all of this like it makes any sense. Does it?? Questionable. It's fine.]
I guess if he has a lot of paperwork to deal with, a throne would be kinda pointless... Where do people go after checking in, then?
no subject
Oh, it depends on what they did!
They can go to the place to be punished, the place for glory, or, um, the place that just lets them roam around if they didn't meet the requirements for either of the other ones!

no subject
He's definitely a deliveryman!
[haha]
I'm just... the greeter! Um, a listman! Ohhhh! Records checker!
no subject
Hm. [JUST "HM".] How'd you end up here, then? Do you like this job better?
no subject
Oh, no, I like my job there! I sure hope I didn't get fired! I'm just hoping helping you guys will work out better this time! Haha!
no subject
If at first you don't succeed...? [HM, ONCE MORE. He tilts his head to the side, just a little, regarding what small amount of their face he can see.]
I don't know. If something doesn't work out the first time, trying again is fine! But it sounds like you guys have been here for a long time.
no subject
Oh...! Um...
[...]
Nya?
no subject
ANYWAY!! If they don't stop him he is going to reach up to squish the visible part of their face between his hands.]
That's cute.
no subject
Shtanks. Wust an' Wath showed me.
no subject
Yeah, makes sense. Those two are pretty cute, too! [Hate that Mahito likes all the avatars so far. Truly in my bones do i hate this.
Anyway he will mercifully let their soft squishy face go.]
Why'd you go with that? [As a YOU'VE HIT A ROADBLOCK IN THE CONVERSATION noise, which he assumes it is.] Just because it's fun to say?
no subject
Yeah! They said it's the sound cats make! I didn't even know what a cat was until I came here. Gluttony has some!
no subject
Unfortunately his expression brightens at that.]
Woah! Real cats? Like, here here?
no subject
Um--yeah? Yeah! Real cats! Four of them! They keep them in their room.
no subject
Wow! I was just talking to someone the other day about how nice it'd be if there were real animals in here! Like birds or something. Cats are good too, though!
no subject
I like them okay! I'm use to dogs, I guess. Gluttony really loves cats a lot! I wouldn't bother them without their permission, though! They would probably get kind of touchy if they get hurt!
no subject
[HE SAYS, with a horrible little demon smile that probably means something worse than the words themselves would imply. It's fine.]
I don't know where their room is, so it's not like I could get to them without their permission anyway, yeah?
[Apparently he has no trouble with the assumption that small fuzzy animals in his care might end up hurt, though.]
no subject
Um--yeah! [haha] You should probably ask. But I think Wrath and Lust have stolen one of them before! Pride doesn't steal them, but I think they like them.
[they shrug a bit.]
no subject
You're not very good at that, are you. [He says, and then absolutely doesn't explain. Instead, he just reaches up to pat the top of their hooded noggin.]
Anyway! I wouldn't wanna push my limits with that one. [Yet.] I'm not surprised those two would, though. I mean, what's not to like about cats, right?
no subject
[they are promptly distracted by the pat. a few feathers puff out of the hood, kind of like sparkling maybe. except it's feathers.]
Cats are interesting, I guess! They sleep a lot! Wow... um, same hat!
[they say this like they are not at all use to saying memes]
no subject
[FEATHERS... He tries to catch one, while also seeming very amused by their attempts at being hip with the youth.]
You must be from a time without the internet.
[When human hate was still in its infancy... Quaint.]
no subject
Internet? Oh--Lust talks about it. Yeah, I don't have any of that where I'm from! I don't know if it'd even reach!
[has human hate really ever been in any infancy]
no subject
You should see about setting it up when you get back! There's nothing the internet doesn't help speed along.
[look no but the curse energy has undeniably grown exponentially since the internet happened.]
