( r6 ) talking-head: minami.
Minami is invited to take a seat right in front of the cameras, while the overseer smiles at them brightly and waves.
And asks them questions, of course.
They don't have to answer truthfully, but they should be aware that every single last thing they're saying might very well end up in the final cut.
Have fun!
no subject
Mmmn, but you're not just doing things for me cuz it's your job right?
[ this is an important question. being a good person and being career minded are completely different things. ]
no subject
It's because I want to! Of course, I would do things for you as my responsibility as overseer, but I'll play piano and put on a show because I want to.
no subject
[ tsukasa dodging a pit of vipers without even knowing he's doing so. his mood buoyed again, minami considers something.
he's not really in the field of doing things just because he can, but this is pretty transactional. ]
Then can I do something for you?
[ he's practically sparkling . ]
no subject
Still, he looks puzzled at that for a moment, tilting his head.]
Something for me...?
[This is like Minami wanting to swear again, isn't it?]
Well then...
[...]
You can tell me a little about yourself! I still barely know anything at all.
no subject
suffice it to say he wasn't expecting that! he had something in mind already and if tsukasa avoids the viper slip n slide he'll still offer it bc it's kinda selfish too but. later!
he blinks a little, actually surprised before laughter bubbles up from his chest. ]
'Kay, but what do you want to know? Tell me so I can tell you, hehe.
no subject
He gives that some thought, though, grinning a bit at the laughter. There! See! Good. That's the sort of reaction he's talking about!!]
Well. What is life as a demon like?
no subject
The stupid Hell Organization or whatever they call themselves keep us all in line, or try to anyway hehe. They'd look the other way if we were just torturing the sinners but that gets really samey.
[ he smiles and then pitches his voice to sound like completely different people, different genders even, in a perfect facsimile. ]
"I was born poor and no one looked my way so I decided to take things into my own hands."
"My husband cheated on me so I killed him and his mistress!"
"I'm misunderstood and no one will ever understand me so I'll ruin things for everyone else. "
We're not supposed to interact with the living world but it's really boring being trapped somewhere your entire life with the same whiny crowd you know? Even if there's good parfaits!
I usually never get to see the living world, only in really small doses.
no subject
I see... so that's why you've never been to places like a theme park...
But the living world is so full of things to see!
no subject
[ his reason for being here is larger than that, but being able to experience things himself is still a pretty big one. ]
no subject
I am glad you're getting to experience more things outside of, er, hell. [which still feels weird to say.]
But there are many great people here! I'm sure you startled a lot of them, but... they're still good people!
no subject
I didn't say they all did! Definitely a few though, like Akechi. But I don't wanna talk 'bout them anymore today.
Anyway, that's pretty much Hell. Time moves differently there than up here, but I know I'm still a pretty young demon, hehe.
no subject
Pretty young, huh...? What does that mean for a demon?
no subject
When we start out we don't even have a name, let alone a shape to define ourselves with. And not all of us get there since exorcists and God's are always trying to hunt us down.
no subject
So then... did you pick this shape or... was it made for you, or how does that work?
[this is WILD lore.
Also. Hunted by exorcists... he supposes he shouldn't be surprised but it does sound alarming.]
no subject
Aren't I cute? ★
[ he's always been shameless. ]
no subject
[Well, since Minami asked, Tsukasa is now taking a good, long, proper look at his appearance.
Hm, hm, hmmmmm...]
Cute, huh...?
Yes, I'd say so! Like a small black bird. Your eyes are especially striking too! [red...]
/2
no subject
is a small black bird supposed to be a compliment!?!? an insult!?!? honestly he's not sure how to take that one but then tsukasa mentions his eyes and he grins in satisfaction. ]
Hehe, do you like them? I can make them brighter too.
Wanna see?
no subject
Of course I do! The color is so striking. [And striking things are amazing! Maybe Tsukasa is the bird actually.]
Brighter? You can?
[He does want to see! What does that even mean!!]
no subject
but hilariously if tsukasa is absolute fine just being on the couch with him, he'll feel nothing. if not, there's definitely a feeling of dread happening. ]
Well? What do you think of them now?
no subject
--First, there's the obligatory "oh my god he's really, really, really close" and the urge to lean back, and then--
--Oh, imagine being able to do that with your eyes! Imagine what you could do on stage with a performance like that! It'd be dazzling--
--And "is this something unique to Minami, or is this a thing all demons can do?"
But nowhere amongst his thoughts is anything where he's concerned about being on the same couch as Minami, given they've sat like this plenty before and it's been totally fine. So. I guess he feels absolutely nothing in that sense. He can't keep getting away with this.]
Incredible! I can confidently say I've never seen anything quite like them!
[Wow... what an experience. Maybe being in a totally different world isn't so bad.]
no subject
Of course not! There's only one me, hehehe. Aren't you lucky?
no subject
Lucky though, huh...?]
Mm, I suppose I am! Things have worked out really well, despite a few more hurdles and challenges than I expected.
[For one thing, Minami seems so chill like this. Surely it will be fine with the other contestants now!
(Tsukasa is, of course, stupid.)
(Also too oblivious to realize what Minami really means.)]
no subject
And that made you stress, huh?
[ bringing them back to the start of this conversation. minami doesn't get it, but he doesn't really need to. ]
...if you're busy for the next hour or two, no one's gonna bust in here and complain right?
[ ignore that this probably sounds concerning. ]
no subject
Hmmm... interviews aren't until tomorrow, so... it should be fine, I think.
