@egotisticle: ❛ what have we here ? ❜ from here
It wasn’t the first time Felix had interactions with someone of with other worldly being. It was still goddamn terrifying; shivers went down his back and the usually outspoken Swede was thinking carefully about one should say in situations such as this. When dealing with Infelix, it was normally fine but not now. Not when he didn’t even know what to class the other as. Perhaps it was better to say very little but…what a question!
Tilting his head, he responded with exhaled breath.
“…I’m Felix. I’m just a regular person so I don’t know if who I am really matters in the grand scale of things,”
But Felix did think about it carefully, responding with a similar question.
“Who are you? What are you?”
❝ Everybody is someone. Don’t be so modest. ❞
THE EBONY ESSENCE of the Void itself lapped faithfully at the entity's heel, kowtowing and benign as per their commandant's will before reality shuddered and precipitously condensed the space between them. Eyes studied the other in pedantic audit, skepticism unspoken but inferential by the fixed interest. A beat passed in which only the throbbing pulses of red and cyan hues denoted the passage of time, the suited entity's static position resembling a modern sculpture before idle movement animated him once more and grin materialized with invigorated engagement. White noise's lull deepened to resemble a baritone voice, scratching beneath reality's surface and through one's mind ----- ( TAP, TAP, TAP ! LET ME IN ! ); in spite of its incessancy, however, the noise still bowed in humble submission when the being's own tone arose to fill the air once more.
❝ I could be a friend, a rival, an acquaintance, a stranger ------ take your pick. I've been them all and more. ❞ A disembodied crackle suddenly sounded at the conclusion of his remark, a mechanical fire's threat but without the visual accompaniment or foreboding augury. ❝ My name is Dark and may I say, it certainly is a pleasure to meet you, Felix. ❞
