What is strength to you, or what it is to be strong?

Alternatively, who is it that has right to rulership, or to command? Do you agree with the sentiment that those who are strong are superior and thus have greater rights than those who are weak?

And if that is the case: may the weak become strong?

Oh? And in which part?

[No, what are you doing, don't tease him...]

That I don't really care about you, or your bizarre need to validate your right to existence before me.

You're inconsequential to me. You do not offend me, as you do not seem to be aligned with those of Law.

You need only fear me if you decide to continue to annoy me.

[divinitysoiled]

Hm. I hadn't thought one like yourself would have thought in such... well. I shouldn't say.

[firstofthefallen]

Are you quite done?

[divinitysoiled]

... thank you.

[firstofthefallen]

[Well. He hadn't expected that.]

Be thankful you aren't worth the time rather than thank me for realizing it.

There can be strength in being weak, if one knows how to use it.

[divinitysoiled]

It's not often I am seen for being too weak to be killed, my lord.

[firstofthefallen]

And as I said, I can understand in part.

You're hunted simply for what you are then, aren't you?

[divinitysoiled]

Yes. In my world... well. You may have seen it. How I acted, quite unbecoming of what I claim to be. In my world... I am the oldest living one.

[firstofthefallen]

It's the way it is in all worlds. We're hunted by the angels and must defend ourselves. If not hunted by angels, then by man. It not by man, then I'm sure something else would have a desire to kill us.

The oldest living of all demons, or just your specific race of demons?

[divinitysoiled]

I am hunted my by own kind. Of... those born of two different types of demons.

[firstofthefallen]

Which happens as well. Demons may know peace among their own kind, but they frown upon those who differ from them.

You do not have my sympathies for your lot. But I do understand.

[divinitysoiled]

I do understand that you have no sympathy. What demon does? How funny... I would have thought you would have thought differently, and would have killed me.

[firstofthefallen]

Why?

As far as I can tell you offer no threat to me. It'd be an easy kill. A pointless kill.

[divinitysoiled]

Hm. I suppose that is a question, isn't it?

Though... are you sure it would be an easy kill?

[firstofthefallen]

Yes.

[Well he's upfront, at the very least.]

[divinitysoiled]

If you say so.

Though I didn't live four times as long as other of my kinds by believing such things.

[firstofthefallen]

If you wish to challenge me, I would happily oblige you.

If I make no sense, I so apologize

[divinitysoiled]

You are the strongest demon of those I have met here. I think I would rather make an ally with you, or at least a vassel of yours. After all, I have lived four times as long as other of my kind... I live. I do what I can to continue to do so. Of course... do you accept one that will do anything to live?

[firstofthefallen]

Are you asking me for sanctuary and protection?

If so, declare it. Don't attempt to step lightly around the subject.

[divinitysoiled]

I declare an alliance. I am not stupid enough to ask for something another demon may easily laugh and break.

[firstofthefallen]

Tell me then.

Aside from numbers what could you provide me in entering in alliance with me?

[divinitysoiled]

It depends on what you want. I identify as as a succubus despite my father's side. From your own personal bedwarmer to one speaking words of poison into the ears of those willing in my bed, I am open to whatever you choose. Of course, I could always eat whatever you wish gone.

[Private]

[firstofthefallen]

My bed cannot be warmed, nor would I be interested, but in the case of those here I might find use for you, and as a pair of eyes.

[Private]

[divinitysoiled]

Before I agree to whatever you have in mind, I must hear it first.
