The Same Trick Twice [Visual]

[badassfreakingoverlord]

As an addendum to my previous announcement, I have...

[Zetta pauses to heave an immense sigh.]

I have also captured Melissa, queen of the changelings, and one of the Pinkie Pies. Blah blah rot in my dungeon forever something something evil and somebody get these two psychological help, please.

Heh...I still gotta get over the differences there. The demons where I'm from are usually ruthless and kill just about anyone in their way.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

That's more energy than we generally care to expend. Not that we can't, but why go to all the trouble? Besides, once you kill an enemy you don't get the pleasure of them living with their defeat.

[strawberryredgrave]

Means I'd have a less work to do, if that's how demons worked in my world. Of course, it'd mean fewer daring rescues, but at least the humans wouldn't worry as much.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Let me guess, the mindless kill-everything types that seem to have no desire but genocidal glee?

[strawberryredgrave]

For the most part. That and the humans who keep wanting to control them. That ends as bad as you'd expect.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Those sorts don't last long in the Netherworld either, at least not if they're messing with other demons. That's crap a competent Overlord will put an end to before it starts wrecking the place.

[strawberryredgrave]

So you've dealt with that sort of crap before.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Of course. There's always a few nutballs in every generation.

[strawberryredgrave]

Pains in the asses, I tell ya.

They always hunting down one specific thing there too or am I just that special?

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Let me guess, protagonist, right? It just SEEMS that way.

[strawberryredgrave]

Pretty much. Then again, aren't we all protagonists, in our own way?

(Dante, you're being needlessly philosophical. Stop that.)

[badassfreakingoverlord]

No, you don't get to be a protagonist till you're the main character of a video game. Or other, lesser work.

[strawberryredgrave]

Well if you want to be technical, yeah. Not everyone's big on video games, though. I don't play 'em much, but then again, I don't have to.

(Because he's in one of the more popular video games, anyway.)
