Conversation Space I.

[powersthatbe]

The room is small, intimate. You are alone. There is no sign of a way in or out. Ping-pong balls crunch underfoot, and empty giftboxes, meticulously wrapped and ribboned, are lined up against one wall, while a humming wall of server blades are racked on the opposite wall. A high-backed, gilt chair with red velvet cushions faces an ornate, full-length mirror, and beside the chair is a mug of steaming hot chocolate on a tiny side table, steaming invitingly from beneath a layer of fifteen half-melted marshmallows.

What do you do?

"Hold up. Lucifer's a chick?" Well damn. "Well I guess if Alanis Morissette can be god then why not. Not sure who I'd cast in that roll though. "

"... you are such funny little things," his reflection says after a moment.

[cawfullyironic]

"Some of us anyway." He shrugs. "I mean fuck, my whole existence is one whimsical bowel flush of behemoth proportions."

[powersthatare]

"Hm. Precisely why I like you, little bird."

[cawfullyironic]

"I am the star. It is me." At least someone gets something out of the steaming pile of his life. "So.. what? You wanna private show? Hate to disappoint, but I ain't prepared. Gotta give a dude a bit of a warning."

[powersthatare]

"You are receiving a command performance, little bird, not being solicited for one."

[cawfullyironic]

"Considering you're me right now I'd beg to differ."

The mirror wavers, mirage lines blending together, colors shifting, until the orange avian image becomes a hovering pink rabbit with butterfly-wings for ears.

[cawfullyironic]

"Uh..." That is somehow kind of creepy. "Sup... you."

[powersthatare]

"Does this meet with your approval more closely? With less confusion?"

[cawfullyironic]

"Sure, why not." A bunny with butterfly ears isn't any weirder than a cat with tentacle arms. "Still haven't actually told me what's up."

[powersthatare]

"I am the matron saint of mystery, little bird. If you expect clear answers from me, you must become accustomed to disappointment."

[cawfullyironic]

"I dunno, Easter Bruhnny. That sounded pretty straight forward to me." An answer, just not the one to a question he asked out loud.

[powersthatare]

"You shouldn't say such things too often."
