‘scuse me, but it seems that I kinda lost the beehive I was experimenting on. You see, I tripped and it went flying through that window… If you find a suspiciously angry sounding skep anywhere, don’t try and remove its plug. Just call me or try to kill it without making it open.

((What’s inside the beehive? Lots of bees enhanced with demonic cells, meaning that they’re about the size of hornets, regenerate for a limited amount of kills and don’t die after stinging somebody.))

[...Probably not. :(]

They don't. But sometimes... It's best to avoid stressing things more than necessary, isn't it? Why provoke people and make them unhappy if it can be just as easily avoided?

[...yeah, probably not.]

While it does that, it also has a high price. Not only do you bypass the chance to make a new friendship, and make it harder to deal with other opinions when you have to, the chance to learn and grow disappears for both parties.

So you'd rather force people to their happiness?

Force people...?

One can't force happiness. It wouldn't be happiness then.

But to learn about the world, people have to experience it. And the people and the different views are a part of that. If you're really happy without that, then I suppose it's fine.

It just seems it'd be a bit sad, to miss some of the wonderful things a person can't see from standing in one place.

[He chuckles. This way of argumentation comes dangerously close to what his brother had told him before their confrontations, but seriously. Those were such overused, cliché sermons.]

Don't worry, I won't miss a thing. Not wanting to ask for anger doesn't make me a total recluse.

[Honestly she believes it cause she does it. A lot.]

Well, if you're certain...

But might I ask, what those opinions are? They must be very important to you.

[U-huh. :/]

I am.

They are, though I doubt that they'd make much sense for anybody who doesn't share my background.

It does seem demons between worlds have very different backgrounds from what I've encountered and read.

[Pauses and tilts her head.] But...is that what you are? You feel similar, but...not.

[He tenses for a moment before he relaxes again, showing her a smile that unwittingly displays his not quite human teeth.]

Aw, you've seen through me already? Yes, I am what one would call a demon back in my world. We're not as bad as all those stories make us out to be, though. Maybe that's what why?

Was I not supposed too?

No, that can't be it. The stories are usually inaccurate for demons.

No, it's just a bit surprising. Most people don't pick up on it that quickly.

Hmm. Then I have no clue about what could be the difference. [Actually he does have a suspicion but he's not going to tell her that.]

...does that mean you can't sense me? [Definitely looks curious.] Ir is it you're trying to hide it and I saw through it?

Usually there's at least a similar feeling. But this level of difference...maybe if you're a mixed heritage...? Is that possible?

Sadly, I have no special abilities like that. Staying in human more makes things just easier, especially interaction with people who aren't used to dealing with demons.

..... I am a direct descendant of Pandemonium's Queen. Only demons can enter that place and the queen never left it. Furthermore, only a selected few are allowed to approach her. This and several other reasons make demons of mixed heritage not only unlikely to exist but impossible.

I suppose it would. So you don't have any extra senses?

[Blinks.] ...then I suppose she doesn't leave that place often? That is a difference. The demon leader can always leave her domain if she so chose and even has at least one mixed offspring.

Though some religions do have demons and gods more secluded from each other.

I fear that I'm a very humble man indeed. [He's being definitely being more friendly and polite than can be a good sign.]

I see. It really is different, then. Only a selected few demons of my world are allowed access to the human world and those are usually lower-class or otherwise expendable. The Queen would never go there.

I suppose that's why you said supposed. I am, of the Norse pantheon. [Smiles. Says it as easily as she would someone talking about their occupation.]

...perhaps that it is? There is definitely an affect the human world leaves on beings. If you don't go there...especially with those levels meaning you don't often...that could be it?

It's not uncommon for demons or gods to do some training on Earth. The power is more manageable, since a part automatically goes to regulating our bodies, so it doesn't become overwhelming as it grows.

Ah. I see. Belldandi... [He considers for a moment, racking his brain for what he's heard about those myths.] It's the pantheon with the one-eyed guy and the other one who sired an eight-legged horse?

... Maybe? I don't know really much about the 'why's behind those regulations.

...it's hard to be sure how the Island makes it sound. I'm not quite sure what language I'm speaking in now. I am one of the Norns. [But she does nod.] But that's correct. Odin and Sleipnir.

It could potentially be more harmful? I have heard that could happen.

I think it translates what everyone is saying into some sort of 'default' language. I'm speaking american english.

'Norns'?

Hm. I'm not sure. [Shrugs.]

It does. The problem is I naturally speak all languages, so I can't be sure how it's coming out in the end. I could be speaking Japanese, Nordice, or something else.

A translation most people understand is Sisters of Fate, like they have in the Greek mythoology.

[Looks worried.] ...I hope the Island can compensate for that. If you start to feel unwell in a way you don't understand, please feel free to come to me for help. Neuro-san may also be good as well. He is a powerful demon as well, so hopefully one of us could find the problem if there is one.

Hm.

You're not going to give me the eye, are you?

Thanks for your concern. If I think that you can help, I won't hesitate to pay you a visit.

The eye....? Ah, no! We don't have that. I don't usually do a lot of those type of readings anymore. We try not to interfere too much in the recent centuries.

I will certainly try to help.

Ah. That's ...interesting to know.

Thanks. I appreciate that.

Do they still interfere a lot in your world? [L-looks kind of worried.] Aion-san's style of clothing isn't that old though. If they are at that point...

[Offers a small smile.] I'm always happy to help.

There is no such thing as a god in our world an even if there would be... They're dead.

[Returns the smile with a politely nice expression that's almost genuine.]
