[Text. Alignment Virus.]

[unknownrival]

You know what confuses me the most? That some people can't tell when they've been virused.

It isn't hard to look on your past actions and think, "I would never have done this." You don't need an expository wardrobe change either. Or an opposite twin running around.

Speaking of which... it's very convenient not to have one, isn't it? I'm sure I would have been impaled by now in the worse way, had this been the third time Issei Ryudo picked up a doppelganger. But frankly, no one's going to do anything to the body the precious beloved Issei has, so I have free reign for as long as the virus lasts.

Now, dance like puppets for my amusement.

But if you're just in his regular body... don't that mean you can't do a lot more than make people mad yer not him right now? It's not like you can even get him a stupid tattoo to keep on his body forever now... Even without impaling you, the kid's not tough to handle if it's just holdin' him down.

You wanna make a good show, you're gonna have to try a little song and dance yourself. Lucky for you, I'm pretty good with showmanship!

Did you know you can bite off your own tongue?

[video]

[material_guy]

You can probably do more damage with yer tongue--Ah, then again, you're probably fine at the typing-writing-quick thing, so I guess you wouldn't need it, but...

[video]

[unknownrival]

Oh, trust me, I've done that already today.

[video]

[material_guy]

Oi. With his whole demon thing goin' on, you got any super-healing powers?

[video]

[unknownrival]

I wouldn't call it super, but I have a bit of magical healing now.

[video]

[material_guy]

Would bitin' off yer tongue kill ya?

[video]

[unknownrival]

It's healing that I activate on command. If I feel like killing off Issei Ryudo, I can.

[video]

[material_guy]

But not without takin' yerself out. So you'd wanna wait 'till the last minute... If you were gonna do it that way. But if you wanna fuck him up, there's probably worse things you can do to the kid than kill him.

As a virus, yer only ticket to immortality is in how long the ripples last.

Ruining his relationships, check. I'm getting bored with that part now...

[video]

[material_guy]

You really think that'll stick after you're gone?

[video]

[unknownrival]

What do you suggest?

[video]

[material_guy]

Public humiliation! It's better than ruining relationships! Even if people brush it off 'cause yer not him, they'll have the image of you-him doin' somethin' stupid forever!

[video]

[unknownrival]

I'm not sure what stupid things I could do he hasn't already done.

[video]

[material_guy]

...You got me there. Ain't a whole lot out there more embarrassing than being you.

[video]

[unknownrival]

What a shame.

[video]

[material_guy]

M'sure you can still go out around town and do somethin' stupid and silly. Everyone here knows about viruses, but it's a big world!

[video]

[unknownrival]

That doesn't interest me right now, though. I'd get more pleasure out of causing other people pain than just ruining one person's reputation.

[material_guy]

That's a problem. Your boyfriend's living with you, ain't he? He'd probably clobber you, original body 'n all, instead of lettin' the kid feel too bad over you doin' anything to actually hurt anyone... Wouldn't be too hard to tie you to a chair and slap a ball gag on---

Ohhhh.


Sorry to interrupt.

[video]

[unknownrival]

...what?

[Their BDSM tendencies are nonexistent, Greed.]

[material_guy]

"..What?" he says. You sly dog.

[video]

[unknownrival]

We are not having kinky sex at this moment, so you're not interrupting anything.

[video]

[material_guy]

No, right now you're doin' the lead-up.

Foreplay's important. Even I know that much.

[video]

[unknownrival]

I guess I could do that. He'd do whatever his Master wanted after all.
