[(sebastian voice) i feel the intent to kill rising
Mahito also just laughs at that, since unfortunately, he's right. Arguably curses are worse than demons because 1) they're fucking everywhere and 2) they don't actually need humans to survive in any capacity so they can just do literally whatever the fuck.]
I guess you're right! [HE IS DEFINITELY RIGHT, SIR.] But sure, sure. I guess it's kinda bad to be wandering around with people knowing you've made a contract with a demon, huh?
Anyway he's just nodding along while Gluttony explains his tragic life under the thumb of a tiny tyrant.]
Sounds like it'd be a little boring... Fun at first, though! If doing things the long and normal way is a new experience, then it's probably at least a little interesting, right?
[He's talking about murder, but applying the same logic to, like. Cleaning.]
[sometimes you just kin a very shitty demon because of worth aesthetics. idk. kill me.]
Quite the contrary, actually. I have always been very accustomed to doing everything quickly and easily. It offers a kind of... challenge to do it the long way as humans would.
You're kinda weird, aren't you? [He says it fondly, though. What a weird fuckin demon who cares so much about tidiness.]
But I can see it! That's part of why Thursday was so interesting for me. Having to do things the long way when you're used to taking care of stuff in a few seconds - it really makes you have to consider it all in a new light, right?
his face is definitely :| because HONESTLY, he isn't weird...? tch.]
See. You do understand. There is a certain challenge to doing things the way humans do them--when you cannot just lean into making it happen quickly with your abilities.
It's not a bad thing! [Being weird means you aren't normal and boring!! But he just nods in response, because unfortunately, this really is something he understands.]
I guess it keeps things from getting boring, yeah. There's none of the challenge when you never have to worry about getting caught or whatever... Ah - is that why you get so bothered about the messes?
[do not :handshake: with the demon. fleas and demons should not coexist, but then i think about myoga from inuyasha.]
The messes are because one should not destroy the place where they are trying to live. I suppose I am simply a butler to the core in that regard. Taking care of my master's home is one of my top priorities.
[Yeah see! Fleamon. They can vibe together - or they would be able to if Sebastian wasn't so neurotic and Mahito wasn't a creature of chaos in all senses of the word.
He still does not seem to entirely comprehend this, but it's at least partially sensible, okay.]
But this isn't that guy's home, right? Unless you've got another person you've gotta serve.
[This fuckin guy is the reverse of the off the string meme... He's on two strings.]
Wow though, can't believe Mahito would literally just fit right in with all the other creatures of chaos that live on the Phantomhive grounds... Anyway, he beams at the praise! He is but a simple soul.]
Okay! [Apparently his whims at the moment value a verbal headpat from a demon over wrecking the shit outta their base.] I'll try to keep the next kill a little tidier, too.
[Since of course he's already planning on another?? God.]
mahito can be the anime kuroshitsuji dog pluto stand in. the one anime sebastian hates with his entire being because it's a nasty dog.]
Good. You are well on your way to a much better performance.
[honestly, he enjoys when people lose their absolute shit, but like... with despair and agony, not with just total chaos. he's frowning at these flea crimes.]
[STOP. Mahito is not nice enough to be a dog, he's a fat raccoon getting his tiny little demon hands all over everything and then running away with the donuts.]
You're a pretty clean demon, right? Got any tips? I'm a fast learner!
[Unfortunately he is
an
extremely fast learner.]

don't just laugh. i can't even say what is WRONG with this dude when there is literally a horned perfectionist prideful demon right here. (me irl.)]
In my master's time, yes. Not only may no one know, but it is respectable to do things the long way. The normal way.
[:\ no magicking up shit apparently because SOMEONE is a lil spoiled binch brat who wants him to suffer.]

don't just use that icon either. i will not feel sad for this damn flea.]
I only have a single master at a time. Making multiple contracts is possible, but highly bothersome. A single master is all that is needed.
[and this one is a fucking HANDFUL. :unamused:]
no subject
Huh... Then it's just habit that you're keeping it all clean here, still? Or that you care a lot about the messes?
[He still does not understand. The mind of a butler demon is far beyond him... But he'll just shrug. AND PROUDLY SAY:]
I haven't made any messes in a long time, at least! [...] Uh, minus the murder.
no subject
it's fine. gluttony is use to this. he deal with three other servants exactly like this stupid flea all the time. and he's exhausted, but he does it.]
I still am of the mind your living spaces here should not be sullied unnecessarily. [:|] You have not.
Let us keep up the good work, yes?

Hmm.
[he places a hand on his chin in thought for a moment or so. this is me looking at how far back this thread is, wow.]
Pay me a visit a week from now. I'll show you.
no subject
Okay! I'll come back then. Ah, thanks for bringing your cat, too!
[Even if this one has probably just been fucking tearing around the garden for the duration of this conversation, chasing ghosts.]

You are welcome.
