Anemone's been here a few weeks now? Too long for her liking. All Eureka Seven spoilers possible.

[tearsofaphrodite]

There's a teenage girl, lounging lazily and very moodily in the middle of the plaza, very twitchy, and glaring at everyone who's passing by. She seems to have slight spasms sometimes.

"Have you ever considered," she asks, you, or nobody in particular, "just how unfair this place is?! Sure, Dewey isn't here, that's grand, sure, sure, but neither is Nirvash! Nirvash isn't here, and I can't - I can't--!"

Anemone twitches a bit more.

"And I don't even have my medicine! Shouldn't this place give me some, since it brought me here?"

She glares, and sighs.

"Don't just stare, tell me what you think! Isn't this place just unfair?! It's as bad as Sabraather!"

"Destruction?" He purrs the word at her. "I could rust your robot into a scrap heap before it had a chance to strike. Not everything is as easily controlled as your robotic play things which are useless."

[tearsofaphrodite]

She stands up straight now and glares at.

"You have no idea what TheEnd is capable of! It could step on you before you even react, or punch you into a pulp!"

[bloodysacrifice]

Moloch starts laughing, mocking and amused. "You know nothing, little child. Oh, how little you know. Here, your world doesn't matter, where infinite realities come together."

[tearsofaphrodite]

Even compared to Dewey, this man suddenly seems a bit scary.

Anemone turns away.

"Sure," she says, still trying to sound uncorcerned, "because I know sooo much about your world to believe you're so powerful."

As if, she wants to say.

Though she knows nothing about him.

..and now it will start to get dark.

[bloodysacrifice]

The words when they come are soft and verging on seductive, but the click of his shark-like teeth is there. "I am the deity of human sacrifice, cannibalism, sorrow, funerals, and death. I don't care if you believe or not."

He's moving toward her now, slowly. "Belief is not required to die."

OK, some mecha pilots need to know they're not free to do whatever in Nexus. :) Anemone should learn

[tearsofaphrodite]

It takes a lot to weird out the artificial Coralian, but she IS weirded put now.

She backs away slowly.

"You can't be serious!"

One wake up call as ordered. XD

[bloodysacrifice]

He continues to move slowly toward her, smiling broadly to show off his sharp teeth.

"Why shouldn't I be?"

[tearsofaphrodite]

"Because that's all just impossible! You're just some weird person."

But she's no longer sure.

[bloodysacrifice]

"Oh child. You've much to learn." Moloch starts walking closer to her. "Come closer. I'll show you."

His wings shift, the metallic flight feathers scraping against each other.

[tearsofaphrodite]

The wings are creepy all in all, humans should not have wings, ever.

Anemone takes a few steps back, almost breathless.

[bloodysacrifice]

Moloch stops to cross his arms over his chest. "I thought you were going to have me smashed. What happened? Did I scare you?

[tearsofaphrodite]

Her Nirvash, TheEND, wasn't here right now. How could she smash anything, then?! It wasn't fair!

But she decided not to cry.

"I'll, someday!"

[bloodysacrifice]

"Someday?" He laughs snidely and as he does so lunges at her with no desire to actually grab her. Though, at the same time he sprouts his black bull horns, claws on his finger tips, and his eyes go flame red. His presence doubles in height, wings spreading. The smell of death and disease fill the air as well as an oppressive weight to the mood that feels like sorrow. It's a move to torment and cause fear, unfortuantely for the inhabitants scaring the hell out of them wasn't blocked by the anti-violence barrier.

oh, Anemone...

[tearsofaphrodite]

Anemone won't let her guard down now that she knows it's a monster, but she feels slightly less unnerved, she's not sure why.

That is, until she realises her Nirvash still isn't here. TheEND, where are you?? And--- what can she even do without? What even is she, without???

[bloodysacrifice]

Oddly, Moloch is not a monster, not in the true sense. If anything he is a manifestation of internal darkness rather than the external.

Cat got your tongue?

[tearsofaphrodite]

Don't mock me. It's not everyday people do -- things like that!

[She's getting a bit annoyed now, apart from scared.]
