That doesn't work on me, my face is supposed to be offensive. [ dry jokes. and speaking of, since she's close enough she can probably see very faint scars across his left cheek. ]
It's one of the workarounds we're figuring out. Nothing says it won't happen. We just have to pressure them into clarifying their winning terms. I don't really take no for an answer anyway.
[she's so curious about the scars, but she doesn't think he'd respond very well if she was just like hey what's up with your face, so she's trying to be polite. for once.]
Me either. [re: taking no for an answer.] So if they tell you something you don't want to hear, you won't just let it go?
[ very funny, he actually wouldn't mind. but it's fine. walkies. ]
Something like that. It would then become more about asking in increasingly annoying ways until either they agree with me, or I find a different route to get what I want.
I've got a couple of them, but I gave one of them to Tama because it was of her. [wiggles.] The Wonderball is one of the things you can get. It has a random item in it. I got a fun one.
That makes sense. Guess I'll ask Tama next time I see her. [ for a moment he just. kind of lets his brain go "so wouldn't it be a funderball?" and he internally sort of snickers at his own joke and then he thinks maybe it's best nobody can actually hear his thoughts. ]
Is this "fun in general" or "fun for Nimona to torture other people with"?
[ he withdraws his hand and sort of grins while he shakes his head. ]
I don't think that's really true. But I think you don't want to bother telling people you're more complex because they wouldn't believe you anyway. [ he says, kind of projecting, kind of picking up clues about nimona not caring about other people. ] Complex or not it doesn't matter. Your space should be a place you feel...comfortable, at least.
[ if not safe and happy. ]
Pink is pretty out of my wheelhouse, so you're gonna have to pick the shades you like best.
[immediately just throws all of that in the bin and turns to the rugs because she is RUNNING]
You would have trouble picking anything that isn't black. [quick, be mean] Or like, anything that looks like sadness and gives off laying on the floor at three AM vibes.
[ he winces just a little from the claws but not noticeably so. yeah okay that's what he thought. he allows this dunk, too, if only because he can't even deny it. ]
Hey, you have your favorite color and I have mine. Plus I lie awake at 3am in my coffin, get it right.
See? That's what I'm saying. [ he's grinning because this is funny, but kind of in the way people do when they're still not owning up to just being full of shit. he makes a face when her paws squish his cheeks, but he does smile?
it is possible that as a child of hades his teeth look a tiny bit sharper than average. i would believe nico would do this. but also no he's pretty normal. ]
A lot of people have been depowered here. Why wouldn't that include me?
[she doesn't believe he's a real vampire for a second but she's so amused by this conversation and - well, how easy it is. he just goes with it. it's a novelty, to have someone to talk to.]
If you try and suck my blood I'm going to suplex you to the center of the earth. For the record. [teehee.] You should definitely try to eat that fox guy, I bet he's tasty.

no subject
Heh. [a little popup in the corner of the screen says nimona approves] If you need backup, I've got so many weapons.
no subject
Already? Where'd you even get those?
no subject
anyway, immediately:] Internet.
[or, well:] I spent all my tokens.
no subject
We just got them today? [ yeah guess what nerd hasn't spent his yet. ]
no subject
Yeah! And I wanted to know what they do. And now I know. Which is weapons, and trading cards, and Wonderballs.
no subject
Oh, yeah. Fox told me a little about the trading cards. I want to see those but...what's a Wonderball?
no subject

no subject
Same thing. [8D]
no subject
What's your favorite color anyway? We can start there.
no subject
and then down at herself, which is all pink, and then, flatly:]
Blue.
no subject
reaches up and pokes her in the kitty-forehead. ]
Just because a person has a specific color motif doesn't mean it's their favorite. Pink rugs it is.
no subject
she laughs at that, batting at his finger with her paw]
I'm not very complex, dude, I like pink and I like blowing stuff up. [nyehehehe] It doesn't have to be exactly this shade.
no subject
I don't think that's really true. But I think you don't want to bother telling people you're more complex because they wouldn't believe you anyway.

she just sort of. stares at him with her big, unblinking kitty eyes.]
I - right, yeah. [sorry about the claws that she digs into your shoulder, nico.]

no subject
Your coffin! You're not a vampire, I've seen you in the daylight! [throws her cat hands in the air]
no subject
How do you know I'm not a special kind of vampire? My place at home doesn't have windows specifically to block out the sun.
no subject
... Fair, you could be a sun resistant vampire. [pokes his face with a claw. gently.] Let me see your teeth!
[squishes his face with her paws.]
