((lol))
Mull blinks, then shrugs slightly. "I dunno. They get nosy as hell?" In all honesty, the only one that had been nosy in regards to Mull's love life had been Aion. And since Mull had stood in between Aion and Asher, that would probably make the demon pay him a visit sometime when Asher wasn't around to get involved.

"If anyone makes himself too much of an annoyance, nosy or otherwise, he will regret it. They know I enjoy my privacy." His tone was confident because he had every reason to be. Granted, there was the occasional verbal jab in the ribs to be expected, but in general no one became too great a nuisance. They knew better than that, and it was not because of any great threat he posed. They simply knew too much; too much had happened under that roof for them to do anything but respect his privacy if that was his wish.
He glanced back at Mull, frowning just a little. "Why? Do you have reason for concern?"

Mull blinks, then shakes his head, not turning to glance at the other as he spoke. "Nah... I just know how nosy some people can get. 'Sides... Your... friend... does still have mine and Aion's old slave to look after. If he plans on fixing the damage I did, he'll have to keep his attention focused on that kid. He's got a habit of not saying when he's badly injured." He shrugs slightly, as if the others life hadn't mattered. "He started off as just Aion's torture pet. Found the kid collapsed near-death at the foot of Aion's bed in the room he's got at the shop. Took pity on the kid for once." He shrugs again, watching Asher's reaction out of the corner of his eye. "Obviously got sucked into that lifestyle a tad bit too easily. S'prolly why I'm minding my P's and Q's with you. Would rather not run the risk of making the same mistake again, even though I know you could mop the floor with my a** if you really wanted to."

Asher's eyes narrowed at the mention of the dragon. "Mel... likes to collect stray animals." He had no comment for how Tunda had been handled. He had seen torture chambers and their victims many times. His own scar had been from one of those dungeons, though that had been further in the past than Mull could probably imagine. The pain, of course, was still vivid in his memory. How interesting that he should have involvement with one who fancied himself a master of pain. And perhaps he was... or perhaps he was merely a barbarous child with no real concept of suffering.
That was part of why he wanted them both to think things over. Asher was not about to become this youth's toy, nor was he about to make Mull into what the hybrid and the demon had made Tunda.
"Oh? And which mistake is that?"
(( The phrase, 'master of pain' brings to mind Pinhead from the Hellraiser movies. I'm sure Mull would have fun with him and his lackeys... >>; ))

Mull shakes his head at the question. "You saw the kid, correct? That's the mistake I'm talking about. Dunno what came over me.. Maybe because he wouldn't stand up for himself, I don't know." He runs a gloved hand through his short white hair in agitation. "Let's just say I don't really want anyone else to end up that way. Unless it's me, since I know Karma is going to bite me in the a** hard core for that."
((And I scoot to bed nao. *tired*))

(( Okay! Sleep well! :3 ))
"I did see him." Mull's personality was becoming more complicated all the time. His conscience was intact. At times it was difficult to be sure of, even without Tunda in mind. "You will not hurt me, Mull." Even more than enjoying pain, perhaps he believed he deserved it. The karmic reference... Perhaps what he really needed was forgiveness. But he doubted Mull would ever accept it with open arms.

Mull snorts slightly at the statement. "Everything can be hurt, even that damn demon Aion. It's all a matter of whether someone finds out your weakness or not and whether they get close enough to actually hurt you or not that defines how badly someone gets hurt. Let's just say that the demon in me actually enjoys hurting others much more. So, in retaliation for what my inner demon does, I hurt myself as a form of repentance." He shrugs slightly, tails flicking. "Obviously doesn't do a damn bit of good."
((XD Yes, Mull has multiple personalities. His inner demon usually has control of him. ^_^ ))

(( OH. Okay, that makes things make a little more sense. XD <3 ))
Asher's eyes narrowed. "'The demon in you?'" What was he, possessed? Regardless, it would seem that at least one of his assumptions had been correct. "I believe you have 'repentance' mistaken for 'penance', Mull. To repent you must be genuinely sorry for your sins and seek forgiveness and to change actively. Obviously, punishment not always bring about regret..." It was not that he was trying to lecture, but merely prove a point. Obviously, Mull exacting payment upon his own flesh had done nothing, perhaps, except escalate his violent ways.

Mull gives a soft snort and motions to the two demon wings on his back. "I'm assuming you thought I grafted these onto my skin? Think of my... inner demon as sort of a split personality, then. I want to change, but I'm not always in full control of my body. I still see what he sees, hear what he hears, and, whether I like it or not, my body does what he wants when he wants it to be done. So, I remember every detail of what was done to that kid and numerous others. This is one of the few times I've been in control. I think he was satisfied with what he did that kid, so he should be... quiet... at least... for a few more days. He also happens to like Aion." He gives a disgusted look at his gloved hands, the knuckles of the one he'd smashed earlier just now starting to scab up. "In all honesty, you'd be better off staying away from me. He doesn't differentiate between friend and foe. So, I'll completely understand if you never show up around me again."
((lol))

(( I get so many ideas that can't happen yet just reading these posts. Grr. xD
Oh... Val has a similar thing happen when he transforms. He can see and feel everything, but can't do anything about it. o: ))
"That is probably why Aion seems so taken with you. He likes at least half of you..." He was still in favor of waiting and seeing how everything played out. Yes, he might very well be better off staying away from Mull and this other demon. He could also go home, mope around, and sink back into a decade or more of vampiric angst. But in that time, Mull may have seen to his own destruction. He always had time to whine and complain later... "Let's just wait and see, hm?"

((XD Mull also can't seem to be able to kill himself. He's tried, and always failed due to someone either interfering, or death just not coming to him. He doesn't know why. XD))
Mull stops in front of the first floor door that led outside, hand resting on the knob for a moment before he grudgingly opens the door for Asher. "I'm sure once you get home and think, you'll decide you're better off ignoring my presence or forgetting I exist." He mumbles, looking to the ground at his feet. "I AM a monster, after all, and don't deserve to be treated as otherwise."

(( Decapitation seems to work for most. XD; <3 ))
"Now you are preaching to the choir." Asher crossed the threshold while Mull stood downcast. He stopped on the steps and turned to face the hybrid. "You may think you are a horrible monster but I have encountered worse. At least you seem to have a conscience some of the time," he smiled faintly. "Good night, Mull."

((XD It's like his inner demon interferes and keeps him from landing on things that would kill him, or being able to decapitate himself.))
Mull flicks his eyes up at Asher's words and gives the other a small, barely noticeable smile. "Yeah.... Some of the time..." He mumbles, watching Asher from the doorway. "Good night, Asher."

(( XD! Oh dear... that ol' will to live is too strong. Don't know that Asher would let him die... at this point maybe... but if nothing else, he'd keep him around to torment LOL ))
The vampire smiled faintly for an instant before seeming to disappear from sight. This boy was going to be a lot of trouble, whether he decided to deal with him directly or not...

Mull closes the door once Asher was gone and looks around, leaning slightly against it, heaving a sigh and closing his eyes for a moment. When he opens them, he yelps and jumps back against the door harshly, finding himself face to face with Aion. "What the ******** do you want? Get out of my house!" He snaps, growling at the now smirking demon.
Aion smirks, then effectively pins Mull against the door, his face mere inches from the other. "So, you tried pulling the 'pity me I'm a monster' card, eh? I highly doubt it worked, my dear boy. The vampire is not as stupid as you think he may be.
Mull growls threateningly as he struggles to get loose, multiple phrases escaping his mouth. "I wasn't pulling a ******** pity me act you goddamned son of a b***h! I told him the ******** truth! ********!" He hollered louder, unable to do much but struggle against the more powerful demon.
((XD I'm so mean and horrible... >_> ))
