‘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.))

Occupation makes no difference about whether a person is lying or being honest, Conan. I think we both know that. It may help them or give them away, but ultimately it's not that important.

[He pauses.]

You however, are like me. A person who manipulates. But you keep forgetting about it from time to time, which means that there's a certain amount of self-righteousness. There is a secret you want to keep no matter what, but it's also something you do not consider yourself at fault for.

I could say the same for you.

You are a manipulator. Even for tiny things, things people would do normally. You don't ask. Possibly to avoid feeling like you might have to pay them back?

More than that though, you have shown to have a kindness in you. In particular for children. Something most people wouldn't expect, considering what you have 'done.'

You assume that I care enough to feel grateful or guilty even toward strangers.

Really now? I think it's exactly because of what I've 'done'. And it's less 'children' than 'you', I guess. [But it's evident that the 'you're kind' part somewhat bothers him.]

Admittedly, this is from the Angel incident. You seemed to show actual concern when I mentioned the children.

Though the 'you' can fit for what happened at camp, with you saying to use the address of brother.

Though that part, I'm not sure. Why you have a particular fondness for me, but I admit, I have a horrible tendency at not understanding feelings towards me.

...

So you're assuming that I like you for some reason and you'd like to know why?

You have concern for me.

Either you think I'm a valuable pawn, or you actually like me.

And yes, I realize the pawn thing is very viable, but nothing has to be the extent to match what you did for me.

[One thing of those doesn't necessarily exclude the other with him...]

I didn't do anything for you. We didn't find any of your friends and in the end I got tired and left you on your own.

[He knows that too.]

And I didn't try to stop you. I could have gone with you to safety and you would have taken me. I chose to go.

But you tried to help. That means you were doing something for me.

And I already called in that favor, remember? I made you help me with that ...'condition of mine'.

[Quirks an eyebrow.] Really, Aion-niisan.

That isn't what you were thinking of at the time. Sure, you could have been thinking you could use it later, but it wasn't just that.

By the way, there's another powerful demon around and he has an interesting food source, might be useful.

But that's for another time. [OH YEAH, THERE MIGHT BE AN EYEBALL BUG THING SOMEWHERE AROUND HIM.]

The parrot one?

[Lovely. :/ ]

Yeah, that one. He'll tell me if he agrees to help or not next time I see him, I'm sure. He's spying on me right now.

[He is getting kind of used to this.]

Charming, really. Wait, 'if he agrees to help'? You told him about me?

No, but that whole spying thing kind of tells him I'm gonna ask.

Unless I finally managed to ditch that eyeball bug thing. I can never see it.

I don't know what to say about you telling me about it just now.

How intelligent is your 'bug'?

Because, honestly? Neuro isn't a threat to you or to me. Your negative motivations are too straight forward to be of any interest to him and he wants what follows me to ever wish me actual harm. He eats mysteries.

...and I really can never see it, and so many people end up watching me, it's starting to get far too easy to forget. [Which does kind of irk him.]

No idea how intelligent the bug is. Belldandy talks to it like it understands, but she can apparently talk to the inn itself, so it's really not a good basis for anything.

"My negative motivations are too straight forward"...? I beg your pardon? [Watch what you say, little one.]

It looks like a low-level drone to me. They are useful and easy to ignore, but tend to only possess base intelligence. [Shall pretend that you didn't use the B-word.]

I mean that you don't exactly try to conceal them. You don't make a whole mystery out of it. He likes the negative emotions that are wrapped in a puzzle or something along those lines. Either way, it seems like he has to have a mental challenge in figuring out the 'culprit' for him to be interested.

...so I didn't lose it. [Seriously can't see them.]

Ah, I see. Then I am indeed 'boring' for him. [Or not. Aion's just a lot better at hiding the very existence of a mystery being there to begin with.]

Nope~

So no threat. [He knows about all them well enough, you crazy person you.]

Damn. I guess I'll have to keep practicing.

"Yay~!" [Which means that things go just as planned~]

Maybe a bath in a tub full of insecticide would help.

...that would be horrible for my own health and considering how everyone else with little animal....things as minions seems able to summon up more, kind of pointless.

Well. At least it'd be entertaining?

...you do know how insecticide works, right?

Yes, but only in theory.
