[Hey, Zenitsu, are you sitting somewhere? Maybe at the dining table? Being comfortable? Eating breakfast or whatever? Don't be too comfortable. Monsters are about. Monsters like the one currently grabbing your ankle from below the table.]
[He can't get comfortable here, but he still needs food in order to survive. Frankly, he's waiting for the news that someone vanished or got killed (read: eaten) overnight, knowing who roams these halls. Now that he's reminded of this unfortunate presence, Zenitsu finds himself looking around the room.
Finding neither hide nor hair of Mammon, Zenitsu sighs in relief when something seizes his ankle. His breath hitches as he jumps in his seat.]
[If nothing else, hellish days of training have given him powerful leg muscles. But he doesn't kick. In fact, he doesn't even attack. He just violently jerks his foot back to get it as far away from Mammon('s mouth) as possible.]
Gyaaaaah! What are you doing down there? Let go! Let go of me!
[Mammon is having a GREAT time. Even if he was potentially going to put himself in the way of a swift kick to the head, but Mammon does first and thinks later. He beams widely, still laughing, though he detaches his hand from the other's ankle.]
HAHA! You should see your FACE! PRICELESS! I should take a picture of that and sell it online!
[Yes, yes, and there's free meat roaming said free mansion. That doesn't mean Mammon should be helping himself to any of it. Zenitsu is sure he tastes bad, for one.]
How was that funny? I thought my heart skipped a beat! What do you want, anyway?
You're lying. Demons don't eat souls! They get stronger by devouring human flesh and blood! I don't know what you're trying to do, but it won't work on me!
We may be responsible for ourselves, but we're still guests of the same host. If you eat me, Master Blue's not gonna be happy! Who knows what'll happen to you then!
[Telling someone to relax never works, especially when it's from Mammon.]
I don't remember, okay? Every time I ran into them, they would suddenly disappear. Even when I was on that mountain top for seven nights, they all left me alone. I was really lucky, so how come I'm stuck with you every day in this mansion now?
With sins, dummy! Greed and pride and everythin' else. Besides, what we're after is souls. We'd do anythin' for human souls. You tempt a guy enough, and he'll give his soul to ya on a silver platter.
[Like, there's eating them flesh-wise, but souls is where it's AT]

What are you talking about? If you're not hungry, don't go bothering people! No, even if you are, stay away! And stop hiding under tables!
no subject
[Hehehehehehe. He just puts his chin in his hands, smiling like the cat that is totally about to eat the very loud canary.]
C'mon, even you have to think its funny!
no subject
How was that funny? I thought my heart skipped a beat! What do you want, anyway?
no subject
[And you know how much he likes gold. ;)]
Eh, I don't know. Just saw ya and was like "need to get him to scream a little bit".
[He's terrible.]
no subject
You got what you came for, so just go already!
no subject
Nah, I'm bored. So I'll stick around you. Whet my appetite a little.
no subject
Are you deaf? I told you, I don't taste good!
no subject
[He sticks out his tongue.]
We tend to go for the soul, anyways. The flesh is kind of bleh.
no subject
You're lying. Demons don't eat souls! They get stronger by devouring human flesh and blood! I don't know what you're trying to do, but it won't work on me!
no subject
[Though he's saying that like he's eaten a human anytime recently which................he has not.]
no subject
You . . . just how many people have you eaten?
no subject
[>B)]
no subject
[Little does he know.]
no subject
[hehehehe]
Anyways, you met a demon before, or what? You seem to know a lot about us.
no subject
I've met one before, all right. I've met a lot! And somehow I've been lucky enough to survive all this time.
[But now he's stuck with Mammon, who won't stop harassing him!]
They all went away after a while, so you can go, too!
no subject
Yeah, with that attitude of yours and the way you screech, I'd say you're definitely lucky.
[A shake of the head.]
You know that the more you say something like that, the more I stick around, right?
no subject
Why! Why can't you just leave me alone? Can't you have your fun elsewhere?
no subject
[rip zenitsu]
no subject
[As for him, he just finished eating. Zenitsu all but leaps out of his chair and heads for sweet escape: the door.]
no subject
Hey, how 'bout we just talk?
no subject
You're the one who grabbed me.
[Zenitsu could cry. He really wants to cry.]
Fine. If you have something to say, say it already!
no subject
[He shrugs.]
Relaaaaax. [HOW CAN YOU TELL HIM TO RELAX] What kinda demons have you met, already? I'm just curious.
no subject

Maybe you've been a bad person. Commit any sins, lately?

[YOU'RE THE WEIRD ONE, STRANGE. SCARED DANDELION MAN]
no subject
I may not remember much, but I definitely haven't met a demon like you before. You're still one of them, though! Because you've eaten people!
[It's so disturbing that he can't help sounding flippant about the subject. Mammon's attitude isn't helping, either.]
no subject
Demons do a lot more than just eat people, y'know? You must have met some pretty simple ones...
[Giving demons a bad names except they already have a bad name.]
no subject
What else do they do, then?
no subject
no subject
[Demons have actual hobbies?]

[Like, there's eating them flesh-wise, but souls is where it's AT]

Is that why you're trying to do now? Tempt me? Well, it won't work. I'll never give my soul to you, you hear me!
