[ when the feed kicks on, it's from on top of one of the town's buildings.  though only his back can be seen by the screen, Vergil's still clad in blue, though shape different. his wings stretch, as if attempting to reach their full wingspan. Tsukaimon is at his side, leaving Labra in charge of the recording... ]

Here, we witness the rare, but not so elusive half demon spreading his majestic wings for the first time in -

Labramon.

[ the voice, though hollow and distorted, leaves no room for question and the digimon shrinks back. ]

It doesn't bother you, though, not being able to change back?

[ There's a glance back. a pause... and then he glances forward again before taking off.  Tsuakimon tsks and shakes her head. ]

That would obviously be a no. [ then she, too, takes off after the their partner. Labramon sighs, turning to look at the screen. ]

What am I doing wrong here? How can I get him to like me... Or, you know, convince him that being human isn't all THAT bad?

*...That is absurd levels of not fair. The spot on his back where his wings would anchor if he was in demon form might be feeling a bit twitchy right now. And he's giving the screen such a dirty look before he addresses Labramon.*

If I knew the answer to the second question, I would have done it already. But don't take him personally, he's like that to everyone.

[hellboundslayer]

He isn't always like that with you.

[ just saying. ]

[hellspawnedhero]

He's my brother. I think he's obligated to be annoying back at me.

[hellboundslayer]

You wouldn't know how to live with yourself if I did not.

[ look who just came back. just so you can see his lovely mug. ]

[hellspawnedhero]

*Yeah, see this glare? This is a glare that says he's pretty sure you came back just to prove his point. And it's working, because must you rub in that you have your scales and all your limbs back?*

I'm sure I could find other ways to fill the void in my life.

[hellboundslayer]

[ he sees this glare and raises you a wing flap. ]

With nothing good and wholesome, I imagine.

[hellspawnedhero]

*Now he knows you're doing it on purpose.*

How does gambling and underground fight tournaments sound?

[hellboundslayer]

As I said. Nothing really worth your time.

[hellspawnedhero]

It's excitement. And at least it doesn't come with a threat to the entire world.

[hellboundslayer]

We all do what we must.

[ harsh, Dante. but Vergil isn't likely to ever apologize for anything he's done.

well. not that, anyway. ]

[That is...a bit of a surprise, but not too bad a surprise. He's seen stranger shaped mutants before.]

What are demons?
