WRITTEN ◦ ACTION ◦ COMMUNION

[ Communion with Silco is like being doused in cold, polluted water. It feels like taking a breath is difficult, like there's fingers around your throat, pain all over. The water is too-slick like it's almost more pollutants than water, and the water crashes against you, inescapable, even if you were to somehow find the ability to breathe, there is still no escape from the sickening undertow. Somewhere, perhaps deeper in the water, or something else, is a simmering, vile hatred, resentment, and it feels like it should be hot enough to make the water around you boil, even if it's almost too-placid, and too cold. Like all of this hatred is buried deep. Then again, the fact that it feels so close means it must burn so hot. ]

[ That laugh sounds sweet to Sebastian’s ears. He doesn’t know the thoughts going through Silco’s head, all the complicated feelings and the past that goes with it, but it doesn’t matter. Not really. Sebastian simply knows that they’re ugly, twisted feelings, because how else could you laugh at drowning a man with such delight? That thought might as well be as delectable as the smell of his meticulously baked treats.

So, he pushes for a little more. He’s greedy when it comes to food. ]

Ah, it would be a shame for you to just watch… Even if I am your tool to use, it would not be quite so fulfilling if I were to be the one to do it, surely.

[ He hums thoughtfully as he considers it ]

I will see what I can do. Surely there is something here in Kenos that would allow me to lend you my strength… For a time. I imagine you would enjoy Vander’s reaction to simply that as much as the act itself.

[ Silco is a great target, in fact, because he wants to indulge in that darkness, give into it little by little. He is a monster in every sense of the word, and he has often been considered the monster -- and thus he became it. The vicious cycle of those from the Undercity.

Sebastian's proposal is something that incited delight in Silco, it's obvious. His eyes flash, and his lips curl into the ghost of a cruel smile. ]

My. That would be fun, to watch him when I did it.

The reason I don't do shimmer is because I do not wish to lose all faculties. [ Well. Not do more than the very controlled drops of it. That's fine, right? He's not really lying.

Much. ]

To be able to do it... would be quite the gift you've given me.

[cutlery]

And I am nothing if not gracious.

[ It’s a response with a snicker since he’s well aware that it’s not exactly accurate. Could it be called generosity when it’s so self-serving? It’s at least something he jokes about openly because he’s also sure that in this matter, Silco doesn’t care. So long as he could be the one to strangle the life out of Vander, Sebastian doubts that his master would care where it came from. ]

I will see to it, in that case. I cannot promise it quickly, mind, as I admittedly barely know where to start… But if it is at all possible, it shall be done by the time you need it.

[ and thanks to them being awful people I have my next power buy set!! Thanks, assholes!! ]

Though with that charming thought, I believe I have kept you long enough at this point, hm? I am glad meeting Sveinn went well, and I have a few interesting tasks to investigate. A quite productive little visit.

[zauneyete]

Mm, yes. Hopefully next time I'm by, Sveinn will remember me, hm?

[ It's mostly a joke, since Silco probably hangs out sometimes plotting little evil plans or Shimmer things because while he'll complain about Pilties and butlers... Sebastian's cooking is good, despite how he puts on airs about it all. ]

I'll let myself out, then. I'll see you down at the outpost later?

[ Implied, of course, where Silco was planning to head, even as he headed toward the door. ]

[cutlery]

Oh, absolutely. They have quite good memories, so I am sure he will be happy to see you. So to speak, of course.

[ What with the lack of eyes and all, etc., etc… Sebastian thinks he’s funny, unfortunately. His rather smug smile brightens back to genial and friendly, and he nods in confident affirmation. ]

Indeed. I shall drop these off [ He gives a nod to the baskets ], and then head out to the market to procure a few more supplies, as there are a few things we are running low on. It should be no more than an hour or two after you.

[ At least Silco doesn’t have to worry about keeping the outpost stocked and running with Sebastian under his employ. He’s diligent to a fault, so everything about how it runs practically is perfectly maintained. It’s the benefit of a perfectionist, at least. ]

So, I shall see you shortly, Mr. Silco. Take care on your way down.
