animus_network | 004 ❀ Invisible words explode with scorn

[Hey there tower- you know this face? She doesn't make it a point to use the network often, but when she does, it's usually for a good reason. Today's reason seems to be making announcements, settled in the library with tea beside her and her sketchbook in hand as ever.]

Strega- we will have breakfast tomorrow. All of us. Please don't make me have to come and bring you down. It would assuredly not be worth the trouble.

[Don't make her do it boys. It'll be ugly. Or at the very least, unpleasant.]

Willow- I have more things ready for you, if you would care to come try them on. I feel I may need to request a few more types of fabric from the tower if I am to continue, however. I would like to get the rest of these done properly or not at all.

[Because so many projects, so little of the necessary fabric to use- but half-assing things isn't her style.]

There is one more matter I'd care to bring up, if I may. Her Imperious Condescension, if I might request your attention a moment.

[She picks up her tea then, fingers curling delicately around the cup. It's not an actual request of course, because she takes another sip and continues on regardless-]

It has come to my attention that you have taken issue with the fact that one of your subjects is in a moirallegiance with me. While I am certain you have nothing but his best interests at heart- [she's absolutely sure of the opposite, actually]- I feel I must implore you to kindly mind your own quadrants. Presuming of course, there are any more of your subjects here loyal or willing enough to enter into them with you. If not, perhaps you should look into finding a quadrant-mate outside of the limited number of your people- it seems to be working out just fine for some of the rest of them, after all.

[She takes another sip of her tea, then sets it aside and reaches forward toward the console.]

Ah- and if you should hurt him again like you did before, I believe you will find that not everyone is quite so willing to let you do as you please, Highness.

[Chidori out, yo.]

That's not my problem.

Actually, I think it is.

Oh? I don't need a reason to pick you off, null-blood.

Which means it makes no difference to me whether I do anything that pleases you or not.

[Ok, now they're just dancing in circles. But its kind of amusing her.]

That won't stop me from killing you. Over. And Over. And over again.

And that will change nothing, except continue to turn the tower against you. And sooner or later, you won't be able to do anything against me.

When are you going to realize that I do not fear you or anyone else in this tower? Fight back.

[Because she knows you won't stoop to her level. And if there comes a day that he does, its her victory either way.]

I do every day, Condesce. In my own way.

You let me know how that works for you next time we meet.

[Because right now, she has a stupid girl to deal with.]

And you can let me know how being stubborn and alone is working for you.

As well as its been working these many sweeps I've been living.

[Read: Fuck you kindly, Signless, she doesn't need you and your stupid friendship bullshit.]

That was back home in our universe, Empress. Where all of the infrastructure supported what you wanted to do.

Here, things are different! How can you not see that? You're not stupid.

How can you not see that it doesn't matter?

[Her frustration is building to the point where its audible in her tone of voice, almost like an echo.]

I. Will. Not. Be. Dethroned.

Because it does matter! Your throne is in another universe! You have no armies, no support. You are one of us.

Never.

[She practically hisses.]

You're just blinded to reality, Empress. It'd be pitiable, if it weren't hurting so many people.

[DID HE JUST IMPLY THAT SHE'S PITIABLE....]

How dare you...

Hmm? [Yes, he did]

[YOU KNOW WHAT, SHE'S not even going to acknowledge it again, but she can't stop her temper from boiling over.]

Mark my words, Signless, I won't stop until the Tower is barren if that's what it takes for you to realize that I am still Empress no matter where I am.

[He grits his teeth] And you listen to me, Empress. I won't let you make everyone suffer forever. I will find a way to stop you, and you won't enjoy it. Understand?

I invite your worst, you useless null-blooded fool.

I'm not the one being the fool, here.

I could locate several sources that would argue otherwise.

And on that note, stay away from me, or I'll kill you again.

[Tired...] Just don't hurt anyone. Please.

As charming as it is, begging won't save you or anyone else. [With a sneer in her voice.] Why don't you ask the Orphaner how well that works with me?
