i need all you people to each answer one (1) weirdly specific question. it's for a computer.

[OOC: Part of Sophie's player plot!]

[nowfeaturing]

They started it.

[pullit]

You broke through the skylight and shot His Holiness in the face?

[nowfeaturing]

He started it!

[antimetabole]

Dare I even ask how you arrive at that conclusion?

[nowfeaturing]

The guy was running a cult.

[antimetabole]

He was one of many in a long line for the Order. And as far as Nero could tell at the time, you had just killed a man in cold blood and bat aside those meant to protect him like they were dolls. Then you looked at the young woman that he loved.

I am afraid that you started it, Dante.

[pullit]

Though-

[Nero does feel Dante deserves a little bit of credit here.]

It turned out all the Holy Knights he killed had turned themselves into demons, and the human ones he just kicked across the room. So that was pretty impressive.

[antimetabole]

That you found your uncle impressive and "cool" in hindsight is not particularly relevant to whether or not Dante instigated something with you at the time.

[He doesn't do the air quotes, but he might as well have done them.]

[nowfeaturing]

…Now I think about it, maybe it was Trish…

[Just going to ignore any attempts to get a rise out of him, settle down Jeff]

[antimetabole]

...That would make sense.

[Having met her before now.]

[sophielicious]

Okay, okay, happy family. Jeff, I would like a word.

Alone. Please.

(Literally just a voice from Nero's speaker...)

[antimetabole]

Jeffrey to you, stranger. I've no interest in assisting you or your uncouth little friend.

[To Nero and Dante, however:]

When you two are done, we should see to lunch.

[sophielicious]

Okay, Jeffrey. Can you hear me out? Just a second? Seriously, hang up on me if you want after and give me nothing.

Please.

[pullit]

Sorry Sophie, he just walked out.

Iiiiii don't think this is happening today. Maybe if your little buddy asks nicer next time.

[sophielicious]

If it's him, it's not going to happen.

Fine. Fuck. Fuck.

[pullit]

Listen, don't freak out. I'll catch up with you later, okay? They've got good reason to be touchy about people asking after them.

Give 'em a chance to chill out and I'll see what I can do.

[sophielicious]

I'm not freaking out. I'm fucking pissed off at every fucking thing right now. I — get it, alright, but fuck me, man.

Dante's fine. I love the guy. Your dad, that's — you know what? Fine. No, — go. I'll talk to you later.

[pullit]

Careful. That's my dad, there.

Talk to you later.

[sophielicious]

Yeah, well, I have no idea how to talk to your dad, it's a 'me' issue.

Bye, Nero.

[pullit]

Hey, don't worry... I had to learn too.

[He actually hangs up this time.]

[sophielicious]

(She's just not worrying or feeling bad about herself because she is pissed off as hell. Don't worry about it.)
