Tanya was disappointed that boring people weren't toys anymore but she perked up again when she heard interesting references to a "HE" or "HIM" where Tanya could quite clearly hear the capitals. "Who's that then? The unpredictable 'HE'? Is HE the weird toy everyone wants to break for some reason?"

Amaya shrugged, even if Illius had been his most loyal for many years, she doubted that this sort of betrayl would be taken lightly. He did send a giant golem creature to kill him. Amaya was about to respond when she looked over to Tanya, it seemed like she was confused, yet not as well. "Hmmm... well, yes. He is the 'toy' that everyone wants to break so badily as well, He is also the one sitting up there." She motioned to where He was sitting. "Also, he's the one who sent down your golem friend there and also the one who told you that demons are not toys. That you should not play with the demons." She hoped Tanya had gotten the just of it.

Tanya squinted up at where Lucifer sat. "Awww, HE's so cuuuuttee!!!" she exclaimed. "And it was really nice of HIM to send down my friend here too." she nodded at the golem. "I think HE's a really nice guy... HE doesn't really smell like a toy, you know? I'm going up to play with HIM!"
And with that, Tanya had leaped aboard Sniffy and was bounding up to the King of Hell as the golem trailed behind her.

Amaya starred at Tanya as she spoke. She had basically shot the words out so quickly that by the time she had comprehended what Tanya had said, she was already heading up to Him. Amaya sighed and starred blankly after her. "She's going to get herself killed...." She commented, watching her continue up. Should I go, or just watch? Hmmm.... I'd prefer not to get introuble.

Illius sighed. "I was hoping she wouldn't do that..." Illius started to back away. "If she gets killed it's not my fault. Let's establish that." Illius thought Maybe she won't get killed. Although, I doubt HE will be befriended. Mostly likely...HE'll try to kill her....
"I doubt HE is going to let her live..."
HE saw Tanya bounding up the mountain as was confused. Hmph...let her come. She has killed too many of my minions and has befriended my golem...I can make another one, but I think I shall entertain her for a bit...and did she call me cute?. HE stood up and flexed all six of his wings. HE adjusted HIS mask and the snake wound around his body raised it's head.
((Would you like control of the golem Tanyeera? After all, you did befriend it...))

((Yeah, that'd be great! Thanks.))
"Ooh, pretty!" Tanya skidded to a halt just a few metres away from HIM to better admire HIS unfurling wings. If HE had not stood up at that precise moment to flex HIS wings, Tanya would actually have jumped off Sniffy to give HIM a big ol' hug of friendliness.
"Hallo Mister Lord of Lies/King of Hell/Ultimate Destroyer/Unholy One/Prince of Darkness/Ruler of the Damned..." Tanya didn't really know what to call HIM and so settled on using all the names she remembered. "...Dude Downstairs/That b*****d Sitting There/Oh Please Don't Kill Me/Big Red/Sir Scaly..."
The list was quite long but Tanya was speaking extremely quickly so she reached the end of it in less than a minute. She took a deep breath then blurted. "Why are you a toy? Can you tell me why you're a toy? How come so many people wanna break you? Coz you seem like a really really cute toy and those wings are cool and the snake is pretty and the horns look like a jungle gym and I think you're the one who made my new friend even if you mixed him up horribly so you're obviously a really good toy except you can't be a toy coz toys aren't that good and toys are only toys because there are a whole bunch of other toys like them so its ok to break any toy but you don't seem like a toy but a lot of people wanna break you so you should be a toy so why aren't you a toy? Are you a toy?"
The confusion had been plaguing Tanya for a while now and she'd really liked it cleared up. Who better to ask than the toy itself? Or maybe it wasn't a toy... but only toys could be broken and a lot of people wanted to break HIM, so....

HE stared at Tanya from behind HIS mask. ...why did I agree to let this child stay here again?...mmm...yes because those wretched angels wouldn't have her.... HE then took another looked at Tanya and noticed she was still just as innocent from when she arrived here and was just curious...although, the names would have been a little unncesscary. But she could be useful.
The Damned are plotting to kill me?. HE laughed greatly from behind his mask and said to Tanya "My real name is Lucifer. And I am not a toy. In fact, I'm the one who gathered all the toys you play with. So, you could say, I'm the toy maker. And if the toys want to break me...then let them try." Lucifer laughed again. HE seemed assured that no Damned could kill him. After all, HE was the most powerful angel that God created.

Tanya considered that a few moments, then her face screwed up in hopeless confusion. "Wait... I thought all those toys were people! Only the other people are toys, right? That's why I'm allowed to break them and not the others. So... who are the people and who are the toys again? Coz I thought it was people who wanted to break you. Making you a toy. Except you're kinda sorta not a toy..."

"I'm not a toy that's for sure. The toys just want to break me, that's all. And I'm sure they won't succeed. The toys are just trying to act like people. It's part of their little game. The people are potential friends and they're not toys. The toys are not potential friends and it's okay to break them. But sometimes, toys like to act as if they're people...but they're not." HE tried to say in the simplest terms possible. After all, Tanya was only a five year old.

Amaya streached and watched Tanya from below. She could hear, from time to time, the words 'toy' and 'people'. It seemed as though He was explaining to Tanya who were toys and who were people. In any case, she yawned and looked to Illius. "You bet she'll get killed, right?" She didn't leave time for him to respond, "I bet that she won't. Let's see who wins." She smiled devilishly. She'd win for sure, Amaya knew it. Illius had no chance, even if he were to attack her.

In Tanya's slightly screwy mind, things were coming to make a sort of roundabout sense. Toys playing at being people seemed to fit. But... Tanya attempted to express herself as clearly as she knew how.
A dark globe popped into existence and two shadowy figures materialised in it. One figure rapidly cleared to show Tanya herself, while the other remained vague and shadowy. The voices too, when they came, were clear for Tanya but indistinct for the shadowy figure.
Tanya: So can I go play now I'm a de-whatchamacallit?
Other: Demon. And first, I need to explain to you some rules. One, I know that before, practically everyone were toys. However, in here, people feeling like this *Clashing trash cans and yowling cats of salty fruit with barking chilli dogs plus the smell of fresh-melted caramel and overboiled spinach* are not toys. Understand?
Tanya: Okey-dokey!
The image in the globe faded to be replaced by a more detailed one. Tanya, Amaya and Illius were standing in a certain region of hell. Since this was being projected from Tanya's own mind, things were a little... different. For one thing, both Illius and Amaya were smiling as though they actually meant it.
Illius: *friendly and big-brotherly* We're going to play a really awesome game now, alright? The game is to find out stuff. Like what people are talking about. I'm sure you'll be really good at the game. Amaya: *also friendly and big-sisterly* Uh-huh. Remember right, the one who wins is the one who finds out the most stuff! Tanya: But what if they're talking about something really really boring? I'd fall asleep half way through! I don't wanna have to listen to boring talk... Can we play another game? This game doesn't sound much like fun.
Amaya: *still friendly and big-sisterly* Don't worry. You can let your friends play with the boring people. Tanya: Oh, now I get it! People who don't say anything interesting can be considered toys! Alrighty then, ready, set, GO!!
The image faded again only to be replaced with a few scenes of Tanya and the many-mouthed Sniffy asking people to say something interesting. It would be too long now to go through all the interviews, but suffice it to say a goodly number of them involved people cursing Lucifer and planning to try and break him. These people were overlaid with the scent/sound/taste that meant they weren't toys and since they weren't boring, they were definitely not toys.
Here, things got a little tricky. The globe was still projecting, but now it wasn't projecting images or sounds, it was more... thoughts or senses. Basically, it was broadcasting how Tanya thought and felt much as it had broadcasted the voices of the little images in it before.
Those smelled/tasted/sounded like not-toys. So they couldn't be toys pretending to be people. But Lucifer also smelled/tasted/sounded like a not-toy. Toy-maker? But those were not toys.... But they wanted to break him, Lucifer, the not-toy. Then... maybe toys pretending to be people after all? But they still tasted/sounded/smelled the same as she'd been told was the scent/sound/taste of not-toy! Toy, not-toy, toy, not-toy...??????
The globe fragmented at that point, showing and high-lighting Tanya's confusion. She spread her arms and shrugged helplessly in a gesture of I-have-absolutely-no-idea-about-how-to-fix-this,-do-you-happen-to-know? She'd just shown Lucifer exactly what she was thinking and feeling about the whole mess, more or less the exact area of her bewilderment. Would HE be able to explain things to her so the world made sense again?

Lucifer saw the globe and Tanya's confusion. ah...I see.... Lucifer turned to Tanya after looking at the globe. HE sighed. "Tanya...from your point of view...I think the best way to explain this to you...is this." Lucifer snapped his fingers and three miniature figures appeared.
One miniature figure was a demon, another was a damned, and the last was Lucifer himself. Lucifer pointed to a demon. "That is not a toy."
HE then pointed to the Damned "That is a toy."
HE then pointed to the figure that looked like HIM "That is me. I am a toy maker. Sometimes..." Lucifer took the mini-damned and raised it's arm so it looked like it was trying to punch the mini-Lucifer, " toys want to think they are not a toy. But in truth, they are a toy. Sometimes, they want to hurt the toy maker. But the toy maker will always win." Lucifer snapped his fingers again and the miniature figures disappeared. That traitor...he will get what he deserves...I will not let them escape so easily... Lucifer thought bitterly.
Illius smiled back at Tanya and responded. "Sure...why not? The loser has to hug Tanya as much as she wants. The winner doesn't even have to go near her."

Amaya starred blankly at Illius, the thought of hugging Tanya sickened her. She sighed, a bet was a bet, "Alright. Remember though, I win if Tanya comes back." She streached and looked towards where Tanya and Lucifer were. You better come back alive Tanya. If you don't, this guy wins AND he doesn't get hugged.

Tanya sighed and snapped her fingers as Lucifer had done. The three figures appeared again, except they were black since Tanya had made them from shadows. She pointed at the Damned. "I know those are toys. They don't have the not-toy smell." Then she pointed at the demon. "This one has the not-toy smell. They were the ones who wanted to break that one." she pointed at Lucifer. "Except you also have a not-toy smell." she concluded.
((If you can't figure out how to explain this in Tanya terms... two words "mean people"))

Hmmm...I see...traitorous fools.... Lucifer put on a fake smile and said "I see...well," Lucifer actually couldn't put on a fake smile since he had a mask on. Similar to that of the common theater symbol of a smiling mask and a sad mask.
"Sometimes, not-toys like to fight with other not-toys. That's just the way it goes. Sometimes, not-toys like to try and break one another. Lots of not-toys have been broken. Even though they could break the toys, some not-toys choose not to."
