...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio" "Oh! So you do know? Well, that's good. Now I don't have to do any boring explaining." She said, pleased that he knew. Scorpio hated to do boring things... She looked down at Lance, hearing him protest against anything that she would ever do. "Is that so...?" Scorpio kicked him once more. She wasn't even bothering to punch him with her fists lightly... Scorpio smirked. She managed to take off her machine-like hands. In her dimension was the only place she could ever do that, literally. They wouldn't come off anywhere else. Why that was, Scorpio did not know. She pulled her arms out of the devices, revealing dark markings on them: Almost flame-like patterns that were all black. Her hands looked like she just dipped them in black paint... "I'm not even going to bother to use those on you. You're not worth it." She said, rolling her shoulders a little. Those things were pretty heavy... If you haven't guessed that already. Her hand was then set aflame and she held it out with her palm flat, vertically. "I hope you don't mind fire..." She said, picking him up by his shirt with her non-fire hand and placed her fire hand on his upper arm, burning him. .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: This is going to be fun...~~Feeling: Amused~~My Life: Click here! ~

The next kick smashed him in the side of the head and he was hoisted by his collar before he could so much as catch his breath. As she placed the burning hand to his arm, he winced...but let's be fair here. This was a boy who'd spent the better part of his life thus far taking far worse punishment from someone he respected far more.
"You call that sorry excuse for a cigarette burn fire?" he said through gritted teeth. He was even doing his best to smirk at her through the pain. In truth, his description was not far from the very thing his father had done countless times. "Take a close look at me...I hope this wasn't all you got." And indeed, all up and down both arms and legs and even some of his back there were circular burns of varying sizes and states of healing. The two most disturbing burns were the one on his foot that only have come from something the size of a campfire, and the one on the back of his neck that was only a week old at most.Soul Count: Kishin Egg: 0; Witch: 0; Demon: 0Fight Song: Screaming Bloody Murder -by- Sum 41 “No one can deceive what is meant to be…”

...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio"  Scorpio gave a frustrated look. Just who did this kid think he was? Talking back to her like that... "Fine!" She said, slamming his back to the wall. Her frustration caused her wavelength to spike, increasing the amount of madness that was already in the room. This room was, after all, built for increasing insanity. She made it especially for this type of thing: Torture. The mirrors that made up every wall gave the room a look of infiniteness because of that effect that mirrors have when put across from each other. You know, when the mirror reflects what the mirror is reflecting of the mirror across from it, so on and so forth. Imagine staring at that forever... and ever. Or, at least, as long as Scorpio kept you in there. Scorpio, who was still holding him by his shirt collar, punched him right in the stomach as hard as she possibly could. "If I had those things on, you'd be dead with just one punch." She said, referring to her "Ogre Arms" as they were apparently called. "Just give up, kid. You don't stand a f***ing chance." .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: This kid...~~Feeling: Frustrated and Angry~~My Life: Click here! ~

ance's head became suddenly very intimate with a mirrored wall, and then he felt the madness hit again...just like before. he was still reeling from the head bashing when he felt her fist slam int him. This time he just snickered at her...it was a long and derisive sound, most unlike one you'd expect from someone in his situation.
"Go ahead and kill me then," he said between chuckles, "But what use will I be to you then?" He knew exactly what to say, and the fact that the madness was being bounced around the room like a super ball was only making it worse. he was unable to keep his mocking snickering controlled now. Although each one hurt like no other, for some reason it was manageable. Was this the power of madness? To be able to shrug this sort of abuse off? "If this is an interrogation, where's the good cop? Or are you the good cop?" he flashed her his best sh*t eating grin and just hung there in her grasp, shuddering gently every few seconds. he could already tell this was gonna be a long night.
The funniest part was that his "humor" was not caused by the madness. he was just that headstrong that he couldn't help but cop a 'tude.Soul Count: Kishin Egg: 0; Witch: 0; Demon: 0Fight Song: Screaming Bloody Murder -by- Sum 41 “No one can deceive what is meant to be…”

...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio"  Scorpio gave a slightly confused and certainly frustrated look once Lance began to laugh. She wasn't sure if it was the madness getting to him, or just him trying to be witty and "clever". All she did was roll her eyes that his "What use will I be to you then" comment. She was getting sick of this boy's attitude... Because of her frustration, the madness in the room increased yet again. It was closer to just rage-madness than anything else. "Who said I was going to interrogate you?" She asked, rhetorically. She didn't plan on asking him any questions... Actually, her plan mainly just consisted of beating him up, exposing him to large amounts of madness, and–depending on if he survives the rest of it–giving him a couple of human souls to consume... by force, of course. She couldn't convince herself that this boy would eat them otherwise... Her fist was consumed in flames yet again. This time, however, she made then the hottest she could make them. In short, the flames were bright blue... She punched him in the same place as she did before, but now accompanied the punch with the flames. "Wipe that look off your face. It'll just get worse if you keep laughing." 'It' being both his situation and the possibility of him going entirely insane. Not that the second part was bad, that was exactly what she wanted to happen to him.... .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: Who does he think he is?~~Feeling: Frustrated~~My Life: Click here! ~

Nerdy Oatmeal Finally got back. Two blue screens of death and three days of every non-working second later, and I'm finally back...until this happens again that is. He felt the madness ramp up again, this time dissolving his cockiness that had until now kept him brave enough to withstand it. His look of being bulletproof faded and when the flaming punch came, it vanished in a hurry to be replaced by one more suited to his situation. it was a mix of fear of what she'd do to him, understanding that he could not escape, and burning hatred that he'd almost started to think she was not as bad as his father.
"If you're not...after infor...mation...what...do you want?" he panted as he hung there by his collar. If she hit him that hard again, somewhere dimly in the back of his mind Lance was aware that his collar might not survive and he'd be tossed back into the mirror behind him. His breathing was ragged, and although his face was effectively wiped clean of smugness, his eyes gleamed with something. Was it hope that he'd be saved? More shallow confidence? Or something else entirely?Soul Count: Kishin Egg: 0; Witch: 0; Demon: 0Fight Song: Screaming Bloody Murder -by- Sum 41 “No one can deceive what is meant to be…”

...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio" "What do I want?" She repeated, letting go of his shirt collar. Scorpio laughed at the question. "You defeated a goddamned crystal dinosaur and you're telling me that you don't know what you're here for?!" She laughed again. "That's a good one!" Scorpio laughed for a couple seconds longer, her laugh sounded more maniacal as she continued. But she eventually stopped. "You know, for the son of Dead Eye, you're pretty dumb." She added. Scorpio sighed. Great, now she'd have to explain it to him. "You're here because I saw you take down that thing and I thought it was impressive. Ya got power in you, kid; Power that won't come out if you stick with Death and his little school." She gave a mischievous grin. "Power that's fit for a Demon. Not some Weapon." She poked his nose with one flaming finger, burning at the same temperature as the punch. "Rage. Madness. Hatred. You're already halfway there... and once you start, you can't go back." Scorpio removed her finger and kicked him in the shin. .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: So he doesn't know.~~Feeling: Mischievous~~My Life: Click here! ~

Nerdy Oatmeal I'm too poor. I'm currently saving every conceivable cent so that hopefully I can buy an RV in February and get out of this house once and for all. Maybe a few months after that I'll be able to afford my own wifi and then maybe my own laptop. Btw, still putting finishing touches on Madness lance's profile. Nothing big but a week seems like too long. Was gonna shorten it to only a couple days so that it's not half the skip spent just trying to crack him. Other than that just minor edits. Lance heard what she was saying and his only thought was that he barely survived that thing himself. He'd have the scars to prove it for the rest of his life. He felt a swelling of pride at her words, and that he'd have such a reaction to someone like this only pushed him further. So what if she was already giving more praise than his own family ever did? She was not his ally...then why did he NO!
"You're a weapon yourself." It was not a question, nor an accusation. He had it on good authority. "You were a DWMA student once too. I guess I can't say I'll ever be able to understand why you chose this path...but here's a secret for you. No matter how strong I get, even if you manage to break me and even if the Madness truly does make me a hundred times more powerful than the right way would...without a real Meister, I'll only be a pale shadow of what I'm truly capable of. Madness or not." Why was he saying this to her? He was still fighting to keep his head about him, but the more she did to him the less he honestly wanted to fight back. He couldn't put his finger on it but he hoped that maybe if she thought her plan was futile, maybe he'd make it out of here with his mind still somewhat intact.Soul Count: Kishin Egg: 0; Witch: 0; Demon: 0Fight Song: Screaming Bloody Murder -by- Sum 41 “No one can deceive what is meant to be…”

...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio"  Scorpio sighed. Perhaps convincing him was pointless. She would just have to stick to her previous methods... "Now, now. Don't be so hard on yourself." She said, still grinning and taking one step closer to him. "What good will a Meister do you? They use you. Without their weapons, Meisters are nothing. Absolutely nothing. How can something so useless unlock your power? You unlock it yourself. They have nothing to do with it." Scorpio said. She punched him in the face. "Get that into your pretty little head or never improve." She shouted and then laughed again. .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: Idiot...~~Feeling: Frustrated again~~My Life: Click here! ~

Lance could not deny that she had a point. he hadn't been in the hands of a Meister when he'd taken down that...that thing. He'd not been in Weapon form when he shot his own father, and he'd not been under the control of anyone but himself when he managed to go, however briefly, toe to toe with that werewolf chick. What was her name?Speaking of which, she'd lied to him. He still owed her for that. It didn't matter, though. Not now...not when this new person was here. She was right after all. Maybe if he...no, snap out of it. You're stronger than this, you can fight it. Yes I am strong enough to fight the madness...without a Meister.
He felt her fist slam home but as he let himself be rocked by it, he stayed silent and just took it with a look of emptiness about him. She was right about the part about the Meister, and he couldn't deny that.
"Your dragon said I'd be useful. You said something similar, something about helping me unlock my potential. Why? Why help me?" He'd used those exact words on the dragon. He could have sworn it had a name, right? A dragon named Dragon was too impersonal, had to be a nickname or something. As the words left his mouth, he was still laying on the floor with that same blank stare on his face. His voice was equally devoid of life. If he managed to keep his sanity beyond tonight, he'd consider it a miracle. This retreating inward was a tactic he hadn't used since he was a child.Soul Count: Kishin Egg: 0; Witch: 0; Demon: 0Fight Song: Screaming Bloody Murder -by- Sum 41 “No one can deceive what is meant to be…”

...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio"  Beginning to get really tired of Lance's questions, she sighed. "I believe you mean why not." Scorpio replied. "Didn't I already tell you that you have power that doesn't suit a plain ol' Weapon? What's the point of trying to succeed by following a path that isn't meant for you?" She was starting to get a bit frustrated with all of the questions being thrown at her. In return, she decided to increase the amount of madness in the room, perhaps he'd break tonight... That would make this a whole lot easier than she thought it would be... "Everyone else was already in their right place." Scorpio stared down at him, nudging him with her foot. "You weren't. And I'm fixing that problem. If anything, you should be thanking me." She said, remembering how awful it was, being forced to go to DWMA... Scorpio hated being in the wrong place, so she felt that doing him a favor by pulling him out of a place that he didn't belong would make her feel just a tad better... Scorpio was, after all, still human at heart... She wasn't completely cold and emotionless... .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: Too many questions...~~Feeling: Frustrated~~My Life: Click here! ~

"No one can deceive what is meant to be, Scorpio. We're all here to do what we're all here to do. There's no escaping reason, no denying purpose." he gasped those words out as he felt the madness get so thick in there that he could almost taste it. Although his eyes and face still held that emptiness, his body was damn near convulsing on the floor as he writhed weakly in a vain attempt to get away from it. Every mirror was showing him a different picture of himself, a different scene in is life. And with every surface a mirror, he was being given an infinite amount of simultaneous images. Around the time he found his voice again, he realized he was no longer alone in his own head. It was as if two different, yet the same, Lances were occupying the same space.
"Please...stop." He could take any beating any day of the year. From the time he was old enough to walk until now he could more easily count the number of days he wasn't subjected to physical pain. His father had been removed from his title due to his drinking...and Jack was a mean drunk. Especially after Marian (Lance's mother) died. "It's too crowded in here." he was almost whimpering as he trembled and held his head as if worried it might literally split in two if he didn't manually hold it together.Soul Count: Kishin Egg: 0; Witch: 0; Demon: 0Fight Song: Screaming Bloody Murder -by- Sum 41 “No one can deceive what is meant to be…”

...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio"  Scorpio was just about to reply to his statement about purpose and what not when Lance had asked her to stop. "Why? It's just starting to get interesting...." She said, grinning madly. Scorpio heard him say that it was too crowded and gave a confused look but then connected the dots. Finally, the room was getting to him... Or maybe it was just the amount of madness there. "What? You don't like it in here? Too small for you? Or too big?" She teased. Scorpio blew a plume of fire towards him. "Or too maddening?" She said as she turned around, putting her giant arms on again. Perhaps it would be a good idea to just leave him in there.... Alone... "I'll be back later." Scorpio then exited the room with a sigh. She was tired.... Perhaps it was bed time... .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: Ill just leave him...~~Feeling: Tired~~My Life: Click here! ~

Nerdy Oatmeal I am rather fluent in typonese so no worries there. As for quick replies, I am again not overly concerned. Enyo's got some action and for once the Bleach rp I'm in is moving along. Either way tyt. I'll be here. Lance's statement about purpose had been related to the way Scorpio seemed to think that with enough power, the world could be shaped however anyone wanted. Lance had been taught otherwise, but now it seemed that that lesson was teaching him something else now....what if it was his purpose to be here like this and suffer in this manner? Well if it was then why fight it? Because it hurts and all the mirrors and her and why am I talking to myself in my head?
Lance was literally losing himself as she walked out. Scorpio had not the slightest idea that he'd barely heard her speak...but the thing she should have noticed more was that with hr gone, the madness had lowered to a much more manageable din. There was light in the room but not enough to keep him awake for long. He was exhausted and hungrier than he could ever remember being.
His body had already healed itself most of the way from its previous wounds; a by-product of being submerged so deeply in such a thick madness wavelength. But more than his body, his mind and his soul felt like they'd taken a beating beyond comprehension...and it was exhaustion stemming from a combination of this and his ravenous hunger that caused Lance to drop off into a deep yet troubled sleep.Soul Count: Kishin Egg: 0; Witch: 0; Demon: 0Fight Song: Screaming Bloody Murder -by- Sum 41 “No one can deceive what is meant to be…”

...... ~Why don't you come right at me? ........... ~Let's see what you can do! .................. ~I bet you can't even touch me! Sasori Li "Scorpio"  So, next morning came, Scorpio woke up with a sigh. She still had to deal with that kid... Scorpio walked towards the room of mirrors, opening the door with a slam as if to create some kind of dramatic entrance. "Oi! Wake up." She said, kicking him. Scorpio let the room fill with madness, just how it was the previous night. Time for round two. She thought, treating this as though it were just some kind of game. .................. ~You haven't seen anything yet! ........... ~'Cause I'm the star of this show, baby! ...... ~Let me show you how it's done! ~Thinking: Round two.~~Feeling: Indifferent~~My Life: Click here! ~
