[As always it's both voice and video - except when the DreamBerry turns on it seems to be sitting/propped on a table, since it just shows the stem and the bottom part of a wineglass - though the color indicates red wine

Ha! [The harsh laugh was mocking and dismissive.] A senseless world that holds no distinction over life and death, where routines are easily created and maintained, sin and strife are either well-hidden or scarce, and where the concept of an economy has only been instilled recently - barring the occasional shifts of the plane, would a mongrel not consider this dreary boredom ideal? That is, or would your world of origin be preferable?
[Well not exactly, but details. Details that he can handwave, if this crotchety old man dares try to be innovative.]
It is either your arrogance speaking, or your humility. What do you suppose you deserve, in that case? [...Also heeeey isn't this guy the leader of that makeshift thing around here?... He sort of remembers - after dismissing them as a joke and completely useless after having first caught wind of this.]
[She kind of considers tilting the screen up, too, so whoever was on the other end couldn't see her either, but then decides against it. In the worst case scenario, if they decided to look at the screen, it wasn't like they could actually do anything to her through the Dreamberry.]
...People who die in their own world can appear here, too?
[Okay now he's just staring. The King of Heroes has read a lot of legends and seen some pretty crazy things in his lifetime, but this kind of just. ...Took at least a cupcake. No really, this thing is passing itself off as a little girl? ಠ_ಠ
Openly scowling, though he doesn't sound the least bit bothered.]
More like they come to him. Goddamn A+ charisma. Strangely mixed with EX douchebaggery. 8|arupturedbabylonJune 24 2010, 06:35:08 UTC
[Your emo symptoms are annoying but nevertheless are sort of interesting.
...Which is at what point Gil sees just how bored he is and would roll his eyes at himself were this not live video feed. 8| Tch. Well, let's see what we can do with this one.]
Of course. Oblivion is inevitable to all that lives. You still live now, however. Why so grim over your own existence?
[He wasn't so much looking for information as just to kill time, and maybe get a lulz or two out of trolling in the process. So this is totally okay, and if anything, that he's being asked by someone who he is right off the bat is almost refreshing, in a way. To bypass this little game and focus on something that this person can gain instead? Well. Not bad.
...Well, the fact that he wasn't human might explain it.]
You are insolent to deflect an inquiry with another, though I suppose that this is an acceptable question. My name is Gilgamesh. [Pretty sure that this is a demon of some sort, but more than that, this is someone's dog - a being under contract. No need to touch upon it just yet, though, and he stops there, out of curiosity to see whether or not there would be any hint of recognition.]
[Sebastian smiled at the charge of being insolent. He bows to the screen, either by way of apology, acknowledgment, or greeting, it's not entirely clear]
[The crimson red eyes cross - maybe enough to let both parties confirm the fact that neither is an average mortal. The demigod's, however, do reflect acknowledgment over both the introduction and the bow. It did allow him to catch a glimpse of Sebastian's outfit; a servant? Hmm.
The answer is stale, but nothing unexpected. So much for that. He leans the side of his jaw on his knuckles, and passively stares back.] A mundane name, for an inhuman being. What may you be playing at, dressed as you are?
Because humans are not scum. They're only human. So, why punish them for being human? It's like punishing a cat for being a cat or a dog for being a dog.
Ah, but the dog knows when to scamper when it meets a fiercer hound, and the cat knows when to take cover when the brewing storm approaches. Man is far more pretentious in his existence, and he now but too often challenges vastly superior concepts for reasons as petty as self-fulfillment, breaching common sense and risking their own survival for causes even more insignificant. Those whose proper idiocy led them to make choices that will herald their own demise - what can you call them other than 'scum', and why shall they be part of your all-forgiving ideal?

... Pfffft. He scoffs.]
Your existence must have been indescribably dull and pitiful, to accuse a world as stale as such of 'chaotic', mongrel.

[The lofty tone of voice amuses Sebastian, so rather than be of any use regarding supplying information, he hopes to gather information of his own]
