“i would think it’d be endless joy – unless your kind can’t even experience such a thing.” then again ky knew next to nothing about angels or how they managed to feel things. “—–what’s it like anyways?”
“Oh good. I hate rats. If you’re not a rat, I think we’ll get along just fine.” No need for a second shot, his job was done. He’d gotten half upfront, now as he was pulling out his phone he was texting the contractor to demand the rest. “You got a problem, kid?”
He snorted at the rat comment. If anything Ky wasn’t about to tell anyone about what anyone or – more importantly – what he did when no one was looking. So, he didn’t think that would be a problem. “Only every day of the week,” he said with a deep sigh. “Families are not fun.”
With true intentions revealed, a change in composure comes over the blond, half-regretting the warnings he issued mere moments ago. For so long he’d believed, or, more accurately put, fooledhimself into investing attention into that the boy’s confrontational habits were a product of reckless whims and impetuous compulsions.
During most encounters, he had fed these desires, placated them as though he viewed Ky like a pet in a perpetuate state of needing sustenance constantly. Had he ever been informed that the demon’s wish to fight him was born of some misguided need to prove that he could stand on his own two feet, a worthy heir of the legacy he was set to inherit, Thor would never have been as quick to amuse him.
“You need to win?” He parrots Ky as though hoping that by repeating his words with his own voice they might finally start to make sense. Unfortunately, they didn’t. “That is the height of absurdity! To be told you are required to do battle and come away as the victor is the type of rationale I would expect to be spouted proudly by hellspawn! But do you not see, Ky’lar? You are better than your forebearers!”
The term ‘better’ was ultimately scoffed at. Since when had he been ‘better’ than anyone in recent times? Training was a waste; it was doing the same thing again and again. He couldn’t even beat one of his Grandfather’s lower ranked demons head on – he had resort to trickery just to win the fight.
He needed an edge; to find what he was good at and then focus there. Instead, he fond himself fighting an adversary that was far powerful than most. To focus in on one enemy, learn everything about it, and (beat) or destroy it anyway possible.
The desires would never be stated; not until he finally found a way to prove himself. Hellspawn or otherwise, he had no choice in the matter – it was either do this or be stuck in Mephisto’s realm for who knew how long.
So, Ky’lar resorted to violence; something that he could hold and grasp. It wasn’t the best of idea’s, but that unending rage fueled him when he needed it the most… even if that was currently the last thing he needed at the moment.
“Incorrect,” he said, making sure that his words stayed on point as he took a step forward, “I’m worse than them.” Though, even Ky doubted the validity of those words; he had to admit in some cases he was. Ky wasn’t limited to what they were as he was still part human… even if he denied that little fact at every opportunity he possibly could.
“I fight… so maybe one day I can prove i’m worthy. To prove i’m more than just a bloody mistake and that maybe one day i’ll have my birthright.” He doubted Thor would ever understand just what he wanted, but at the same time….even Ky had a shred of hope ( even if it was small ). “That one day I might be worthy of something more than useless titles.”
“Does it matter?” Ky didn’t think it did – the truth to one could be a lie to another. He simply said what he thought was needed. Sure, it might not have been exactly what they said, but that wasn’t the point. “I stated what you were thinking.”
he wasn’t even doing anything drastic; just following her. no violence, no anger, and no need to reveal his true form – not yet. ky was going to ask a question, but her outburst made him re-think his actions. at least for the moment. “— look. i just.” there was a shake of his head. “i just want to talk.”
