Does my appearance scare you? Or are you just amazed by how beautiful I am? ((Independant RP account for Warlock!Purge))

“That “friend” that I have would be you. As I told you in the beginning, I came here to see his fate and attempt to save him from such a thing. But if you believe that another you would be someone who wouldn’t understand, who wouldn’t trust the words that came from himself, then I know not how I am to persuade him to callously throw away his life for a wish.” 

Sighing, QB turned around, preparing to walk backwards through the way in which she came. “I apologize sincerely if my coming here has been an annoyance, but I will take back with me the warning you had given me of avoiding a “Kyubey”.

[pridefulhubris-blog]

Good, and don't even think about making a contract yourself. Even if you think that you can handle it, everyone who forms a contract falls to the same fate.

Although for someone as arrogant as you, maybe that's just what you need.

“I apologize.” She let go of the chair and bowed to show her sincerity. “Do note that if you did that, then none of the Purges would know. It would also cause severe despair for my friend were you to do that.”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

Oh really now? And why should I give a damn about your friend anyways? He seems like another person who just doesn't understand me!

[On the ground nearby laid a familiar Grief Seed. The warlock that inhabited it seemed to have been defeated, until now. It was starting to hatch again as Narcissus's barrier reappeared. A large stage appeared and outer space surrounded it as the warlock made his grand re-appearance.]

((Sorry I've been so inactive on this account. I have finals coming up, so I won't really be around to reply until the 20th. Then I'll get back to all the replies that I haven't gotten to.

But for now, I'd rather focus on just one RP account, two at the most. I'll try getting on here when I can, but no promises until the 20th.))

Amy? No...You're somebody else, aren't you? What the hell are you doing in my barrier?

[beingreikunissuffering-blog]

As it desperately tried to run, the little Warlock felt itself being thrown upwards into the air, coming face to face with the other. Upon closer examination, the Warlock was a small creature that was almost like a little plush toy. It stared at Narcissus with its one large black eye before trying to wiggle and squirm its way out of Narcissus’ strong grasp. However, it’s helpless flails didn’t do any good. It squeaked once more as it tried to escape.

[pridefulhubris-blog]

Hah, is that all you've got? This is too easy!

[He moved his scythe closer to the Warlock's head, continuing to grin.]

Any last words? I'd love to hear them from you!

The sad and unhappy people? Regret their decision? “Hm? Why, there are other people who can do that, can’t they?”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

Don't question me in my barrier. I'll tear you apart, and nobody will find your body.

This is what I want to do, and I'm not going to change my mind.

“That is my goal. It is primarily why I came to see you— I cannot warn them without having first seen the consequences first hand, now can I?”

Oh. Well that was indeed a shame. “Then why continue to exist at all, if you can never make people happy?”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

Of course not. It's good to know what happens when someone foolishly gives up their life for a wish.

I continue to exist to put the sad and unhappy people who come into this barrier out of their misery. I also make sure that the Magi who come in there learn to regret their decision.

It was only a matter of whether or not she wanted or needed to find the Alpha. “Of course. I could ask him to possibly help me find all the branches so that I could warn them of such a fate of yours. Maybe I could even ask him to change it, if you desire it and should such a thing be possible.” QB knew that some things were predetermined to happen, so were she even remotely interested in doing such a thing, it would be near-impossible to ask change in something that clearly showed a learning lesson for the other Purges.

“I see.” Her reaction to this flipped between that of believing he was of a feeble  mind for being incapable of tricking himself, and believing that he had enough intelligence to know that persuading himself was impossible.

“And so you let yourself become what some refer to as a witch. There is no cure?”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

I doubt he'd be able to change it, but it would be wise to warn the other Purges about Kyubey before they make the same mistake.

Of course not. Once you become a witch or a warlock, there's no going back. You're stuck that way until your inevitable destruction.

QB nodded. “Of course. And anyone who notices a child who didn’t act like one would be of suspicion. I’ll keep the tip in mind.”

Delusional idiot? Sure, she could agree. It would be her honest opinion. But she knew that it wouldn’t be the wisest thing to answer.

“Idiocy and delusions do not always run together. Deluding yourself is a form of contentment, and you could have very well deluded yourself into believing that you had everyone happy, if you were the idiot that you claim to be. As for the despair, it is nothing but mental; you choose to how to respond to situations, and that choice for you, unfortunately, was despair.”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

Good. I'm sure if you keep that in mind, you'll find the Alpha in no time.

I had no other choice! I couldn't keep going believing that somehow I was making everyone happy!

“Indeed…” She was still trying to wrap her head around the idea that the little scaredy cat was the Alpha. No. This wasn’t the time to ponder such things. She refocused herself on the matter at hand.

“It is entirely possible that you were the unhappy one. Often others will try to make themselves feel better by helping others; they feel that unless people are prescribing to their way of happiness, they are not really happy.” She tilted backwards the chair that she was leaning on.

[pridefulhubris-blog]

The child may look and act like an ordinary child, but that's becaue he's trying to interact with others when he's not busy protecting spacetime.

Well yeah, I figured out that much. Why do you think I fell into despair? I guess in the end I was just another delusional idiot.

A kid…? Her eyes lit up with recognition before she could stop herself; good thing she hadn’t removed her hood yet. She was silent for a moment, in contemplation.

The child was the alpha? But the kid seemed so… innocent. Unknowing. He cried over monsters and didn’t even seem to exhibit any powers beyond his intellect. Could he really be…?

Finally, she said, “I can see the reasoning behind that. It is indeed a good ploy. Not many out there are willing to harm a child, either.”

QB listened quietly. “I see. I was merely suggesting that had you left them in eternal bliss, they never could have ended up so. Too late now, though. Still, I wonder… why would they scream at you for wanting to bring them to paradise?”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

It's a brilliant plan isn't it? That way he can still enjoy the company of others without bringing harm to himself.

Because it wasn't the paradise that they wanted. They said that I was delusional, that I was the unhappy one!

“I wouldn’t know if he is the alpha or not; he doesn’t seem to do a lot of watching over Spacetime, from what I’ve seen.” Of course, QB has no spacetime watching power, so it’s not like she would know how he could keep an eye on it.

“That may be so; or it may be that you could have led them all to a permanent euphoric state, thus eliminating the chance of them ever becoming upset.”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

I heard rumors that the Alpha Purge takes the form of a child when he's not guarding over spacetime. That way, anyone who wants to destroy spacetime can't figure out that he's the key to destruction. If you know a Kid Purge, that would be your best bet.

I would have known if my wish came true. I would've known if they were happy. They weren't happy, they were screaming at me!

“He may or may not be facing that issue; he doesn’t seem to be depressed a lot or concerned about it whenever I’ve talked to him. I had also received a note from a knowledgeable outsider which had suggested to me that things would be okay for him, and that there were other Purges who would be at risk. If you have nuggets of wisdom, I will be more than glad to share them with the others so that this fate my not befall them as well.”

She sounded as close to sentimental and sincere as one could be while maintaining impartiality. It wasn’t an easy feat. Despite her desire to clash with words, she did her best to make herself appear humble and of little worth. Tone and body language were key, even if most of her body was hid under a cloak.

“What exactly made you think that you could never help everyone? Given the ability to control time, as I have seen my friend do, I am certain that you could have found a way to live forever, and thus been able to make everyone happy.” Granted, she knew it really was an impossible goal, but she wasn’t willing to admit that.

[pridefulhubris-blog]

You're probably thinking about the Purge from the Alpha timeline. He keeps an eye  over all of spacetime. If he's destroyed, then it could mean disasterous things for everyone in every timeline.

It's obvious! No matter how many people I made happy, there were people who would become upset all because of my actions!

“What? Well I guess that makes sense. You’re a talkin’ Warlock? Are ya dangerous? Or are ya gonna be good?”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

That all depends, really. Are you here to talk to me? Or are you here for my Grief Seed?

“I’m a friend of another you,” she told him calmly. It seemed this one was a bit easier to anger, so she took caution not to upset him. She didn’t know his abilities, and would prefer to leave the same way she came in— alive, in one piece.

A chair poofed in front of QB with a snap of her fingers, and she leaned against the back of it, both of her hands weighing down on it.

“I would like to know exactly how you came to be this way; what was the final straw that turned you?”

[pridefulhubris-blog]

Another me? You mean there are other versions of me that haven't become a walock? Hmph, what an idiot. He actually thinks that his wish will come true...

[Upon QB asking him about how he became a warlock, he calmed down and thought about it before explaining.]

I made a wish to make everyone happy in exchange for my soul and having to fight witches and warlocks. It was OK for a while... Then I realized that I could never make everyone happy and fell into despair. I snapped and went on a rampage, killing two of my closest friends and many other people before finally deciding that if I couldn’t make people happy, then I'd go and make them die with smiles on their faces!
