Voice || Alone in a Box

Well this is fucking boring.

If this keeps going I'm willing to take one for the team, fill this coffin with alcohol and set it ablaze. Shoot this shit into the roof of the cave via explosion.

All I ask is you honor my memory by punching Fear in the face.

I'm trying not to judge since I have zero context here

[ even though she's super against animal death and cruelty (good job, demon)! ]

but I'm pretty sure that still doesn't mean you should just be left to die. I think and hope most people here get that

[notjustinthemirror]

[He didn't though! He's a paragon of restraint here.]

I'm not sure I can die. I don't need air so I think I'm just stuck here until an earthquake lets me get out.

And I'm not about to lay down here forever. So that fiery inferno is looking better and better.

[baths]

[ suuuuuuuuure. ]

You don't need air?? Why would Fear bury you, just to piss you off?

[notjustinthemirror]

Honestly he might not know that. The gods don't seem terribly perceptive about things that aren't explicitly spelled out for them.

[baths]

Jesus [ at the fact that he's absolutely right. wanting to set himself on fire makes the tiniest, most minuscule bit of sense now. ]

Do you mind if I ask how or why you don't breathe?

[notjustinthemirror]

Well for starters I don't have a mouth.

[Actually, that might not be true, he has no idea. The mask doesn't come off who knows what's under there.]

I'm a demon.

[baths]

Oh

You know what? Believe it or not, that's probably not the weirdest thing I've heard at this point

[ or maybe it is, but dealing with wendigos and three months of bullshit in this cave has her eerily prepared for that kind of tidbit. ]

Have you died before? I mean it can't be fun, even for a demon

[notjustinthemirror]

Considering where we are, its seems fairly mundane at this point.

Sort of. But I came back. And I don't know if that'll still work here as opposed to back home.

[baths]

I don't think there's one thing here that I'd call mundane

I've heard that Hope can bring us back from the dead but yeah, idk if I believe it. So please don't... explode yourself yet

[notjustinthemirror]

Well the next step in the progression of evil is to open a Wal-Mart. So I'm sure the mundaneness is coming.

Can he really? I should probably pay more attention when he talks instead of snickering at him.

[baths]

Oh, hardy-har.

That's just what I've heard. He's definitely been a big help to us breathing, eating mortals. Maybe he's not perfect but I'd choose him over Fear any day

[notjustinthemirror]

They should both be feeding you. No one's going to be feeling a whole lot of fear if they're dead.]

[baths]

I'm with you on that. As far as I know, Fear's the whole reason we're here

You'd think he would take some responsibility, but no. He's just hellbent on torturing us apparently

[notjustinthemirror]

He's not thinking long term. Or he's relying on Hope to keep us alive.

One of those things is going to come back to bite him.
