005 ♣ VIDEO ♠ Choice

[Ah, when was the last time he posted to this thing- it feels like ages, though it's only been a month or so, how interesting, time does fly here despite being dreadfully idle during a majority of it. And if he recalls, he wasn't even playing 'himself' really in his last message here, more just to pass the time. Of course this new post he plans will be nothing but nonsense--

or seem it anyway.]

[You can tell a lot about someone by what they have to say after all, especially during games.]

[The video shows what appear to be legs and feet. The camera stares down the legs of his white harem pants and shows his feet, crossed at the ankles up on some chair beside him, in atlantic blue high heels. Hisoka seems to be at some cafe, there's a rather pink looking tea cup at his side on a table.]

Let's play a game, shall we? I'm sure many of us looking at the network for now have nothing better to do. Have you ever played 'Would You Rather?' It relies on creativity and a degree of forethought. [And can be a lot more indepth and profound than one might think. Or so he hopes it will be.]

You create two situations and ask which someone would prefer. Shall I start? Perhaps something simple to get our feet wet.

[His legs uncross, and cross in the opposite way, a hand with bright, long, clawed nails appears and picks up the cup for a moment before setting it back down.]

Would you rather- to lose a hand forever or a foot forever?

Foot. I like my hands more than I like my feet. I mean, my feet are fine for feet but... I still like my hands better.

Would you rather... Uhh... Be really hot but everybody hates you or be really ugly but everybody loves you?

[debauchewy]

So favoritism comes into play with you?

Ah- hm. [Well considering the first one is definitely true. And eeeven if it wasn't, hate usually leads to much more interesting and aggressive scenarios- That and love was always more entertaining from afar, he'll say-]

The first I think, though not because I'd get to be attractive.

[lackey]

I guess? I just like my hands, man.

[There's a short pause.]

So, you'd go with the first one because everybody would hate you?

[debauchewy]

I'm pretty attached to mine as well. [A chuckle. What a simple and cute answer.]

Yes, is that surprising?

[lackey]

I bet you are. Looks like you spend a lot of time on your nails. [Claws. Could take an eye out with nails that pointy.]

And uh... yeah? Yeah, a little surprising. A little weird, too. No offense. Just... most people don't want to be hated... by everybody.

[debauchewy]

You noticed? [Really, not too much time, but he does keep them well maintained. He'll lift his hand up, fingers together, looking down at them, though the camera will get a nice view as well.]

It's not that I want it, I'd just prefer it in your scenario. Besides, everyone loving me sounds like an awful lot of commitment. Wouldn't that just become difficult as well?

[lackey]

Hard not to. [Tiny finger weapons and all.]

I guess it would be a lot of work. But if everybody loved you no matter what you said or did, you could just... tell 'em to go away. Easy fix! You could be loved whenever you wanted to be loved and... left alone or whatever the rest of the time.

[debauchewy]

[Tiny finger weapons is a good way to say it, they certainly are.]

So you think being completely loved means they'll do whatever you say as well?

[lackey]

Uhhh... Yeah? Maybe? Because... You know, if they love you, they're not gonna want you to be pissed at 'em. ... Right?

[debauchewy]

Love doesn't always make people smarter, now does it?

[lackey]

I guess not... But... What's your point? You really think they'd bug you a lot even if you didn't want 'em to?

[debauchewy]

Yes I do. But if their love meant they'd do anything for me, then perhaps I'd choose that. I don't always want.

[lackey]

Huh. And I thought that was a pretty easy one. Pretty easy game question. You weren't kiddin' about the... needin' creativity and thinkin' and stuff.

[debauchewy]

It may just be a game but things can be a lot more complicated than they seem at first. Or do you prefer things more like- hide and seek?

[lackey]

Oh, yeah! I'm totally more of a hide and seek kind of guy. But like... manhunt instead of just plain hide and seek? Gotta play it in the dark and in the woods or shit's boring.

[debauchewy]

Manhunt? I've never heard of this version, it sounds fun. The dark and the woods, is it a one against one game?

[lackey]

It can be, if you've only got two people! More fun if you've got a group. Either pick one person to be the hunter or split the group, half huntin', half hidin'.

[debauchewy]

This sounds like quite a lot of fun. Have you played it often?

[lackey]

Haven't played it in years, actually. Might be something to set up here... Except there'd probably be a lot of cheatin' goin' on, with all the powers. If somebody could turn invisible, they'd win every time.

[debauchewy]

Then say no powers.

[lackey]

That's not gonna stop anybody. I'd have to have one of those uh... those... things. Machine things that keep people from usin' their powers.

[debauchewy]

Machine things? Nullifiers? You can't just trust people?

[lackey]

Yeah, those! Nullifier things. Gotta have one of those 'cause no, you can't just trust people. Wish you could! But nope. Got cheaters to watch out for. Cheaters and liars and crazy murderers.

[debauchewy]

You'd prefer to heavily regulate a game than trust your players? Hmm...

[How interesting.]

I suppose there are a lot of bad people out there, isn't there?

[lackey]

Huh? No, no, I'd rather trust 'em! I just know I can't trust 'em. Can't trust anybody. Too many bad people, like you said. I figure the Porter brings 'em in to give the hero-types something to do.
