[sarkazm]

Wait, wait, you call Satan the devil?

[sounding very amused for some reason.]

[gutterbound]

There's a host of other names for the fucker too, but we sure do.

[sarkazm]

Huh. Funny.

'Devil' is what the others call Sarkaz.

[trifocal]

[ a sympathetic glance.

Mustari are often called that, too... ]

[sarkazm]

I guess now we know why!

[trifocal]

[ ?? ]

[gutterbound]

[Looking to her worriedly.

Reaches to give her snake a tentative brush on the head.]

[trifocal]

[ the snake bobs its head and then seems to decide this is fine. eupha just glances away. ]

[purities]

[hm. also glancing at her, frowning.

It's all the same, no matter where you go...]

[sarkazm]

You too, huh...?

[purities]

People aren't as creative with their insults as they think.

[gutterbound]

...

[Quiet for a moment. Then, soft but insistent.]

They're wrong.

[purities]

[...]

Words are just words, in the end.

[trifocal]

[ a sad smile. ]

... It is a little disappointing, isn't it?

[purities]

Yes. It's a shame, but it seems like it's inescapable.

[trifocal]

Well...

Here isn't so bad, I think.

[purities]

[... a nod.]

Indeed. The people here are surprisingly... tolerant.

[not racist. wowie.]

[gutterbound]

Sarkaz?

[girl he missed your loredrop]

[sarkazm]

Yeah. Sarkaz.

[gesturing to her horns, flicking her tail.]

Though we don't all look like me. Plenty of Sarkaz don't have tails, or have different types of horns-- Liches and Vampires don't have horns at all.

[gutterbound]

[Considers this hesitantly. They always do stick horns on them.]

I suppose it's the easiest word to throw at a type of people you don't like. Until you start getting specific about it, but then we're getting into terms I don't dare repeat.

[fending]

[ with some dry amusement ]

In our world it's the ones with horns who are at the top of society runnin' everything and keepin' people like us and Eupha at the bottom. Different sort of horns, mostly, but still.

[ ironic. ]

[sacredpath]

There are various peoples who are called that as well, though we also do have literal devils running about.

They are not the sort I would recommend bargaining with. However, if we are seeking information only, and agree we will not enter into any contracts, I'm not opposed to trying.
