[IS THAT BETTER OR WORSE INDEED... He just hums.]

No, we found all of our bodies. I think the demons enjoyed watching us come across the disgustingly slaughtered remains of people we'd come to view as friends. [A gentle, sloping shrug. He's not bitter or anything.]

But on top of that, the ocean spat back up anything and anyone that was tossed over.

[recrypt]

Ah. They wanted a spectacle. So it wasn't about the killing, for them, just the... Entertainment, I'd suppose?

[ a bit different from how the house ultimately just wanted food, but was also making a point. ]

Hm. How distasteful.

[givethemhell]

They're the most distasteful creatures I've ever come across, which is saying a lot.

[Considering he's the grandmaster of demonic cultivation and all.]

But yes, everything they did was for their own entertainment, and what entertained them the most was sex and murder.

Even the house was simply a predator in the end. Just a rather sadistic one that liked toying with its prey, but even so.

[ She's dealt with chuunis, things that thought themselves grand masterminds and puppeteers, but sex demons... gross. ]

For you to have made it out of that, only to end up here... Hm. I couldn't imagine it.

[givethemhell]

["Sex demons, gross" is exactly a mood. He huffs, and it might be a bit of a laugh.]

From one headache of a mess to another to another! Being alive brings all sorts of troubles, doesn't it? [But he doesn't say it in a PUT ME IN THE DIRT way, at least.]

I will say, it makes it very hard to feel a scrap of charity toward whatever is responsible for dragging us into this place, mm.

[ she hums, and in it is probably the same sort of sentiment contained in his huff of a laugh. ]

Even the lowest of lives is a life worth living if you choose to cling to it.

[ there's value in living, shrug. even if it is troublesome... ]

Do you think it was something other than a simple portal mishap, then? And that we didn't just bring this upon ourselves with an accident of a kill?

[givethemhell]

[Even if it is troublesome... Hm. He couldn't say he disagrees with that, either way, so he just hums a little in turn. As for their PORTAL MISHAP:]

I wasn't keen on that explanation from the start, to be honest! And I haven't been given much more reason to believe in it since then. I think if it wasn't Evan and Tsurumaru, it would have been something else - and I certainly don't think that us ending up here was just a twist of fate.

[recrypt]

Hehe, no faith in our ability to somehow avoid freak accidents for however long it would have taken for our supposed portal mishap to be solved? ♪

[ it's cheerfully lilted out, but. you know. ]

It's a shame our hosts don't trust us, but I suppose they can't be faulted too much for that.
