Ah, humans. So weird and funky. So complex! He loves to see it.]
It'd be boring if it did! I'm glad he keeps coming back. [Of course Punches McGee would love that of his fellow extremely fighty meathead.]
It was pretty funny when he first got to the city, though! Everyone's pretty weak when the new dead show up so he tried to punch me for getting him into this mess and it was the wimpiest baby punch I've ever felt.
Yeah, that's true. He's still one of the best here!
[THEY ARE TRULY FIGHTING IDIOTS... Also he just smiles at her not-nice laugh, because he is a curse, and these are the things he vibes with.]
It was pretty terrible, huh? Things really got way too complicated for a little bit. [A little huff of a laugh. HE COMPLAINS ABOUT THESE THINGS and he is stupid, but he's also not an idiot. The only thing that really sniped him was Gu Yun coming outta fuckin left field.] But I guess it wasn't the worst, in the end! It was pretty funny watching him just sit in jail all week, too.
[HE JUST LAUGHS. Medb is valid and he finds any and all griefing of his loved ones hilarious.]
Yeah, I saw! And heard a little more later, too. Pretty funny how that whole thing shook out. A lot of humans really showed how human they are!
[SASUGA HUMANS. Mahito never misses and has never been proven wrong about humans in his entire tiny cursed life. Then, with the air of someone who is not actually apologetic at all:]
Sorry, sorry! I didn't expect Gu Yun to jump outta the elevator. Things woulda been way tidier otherwise, since I was like, ninety percent sure Childe was totally gonna bus me that trial before he even told me! Lenore told me Gojou was probably gonna try something too, so it sounds like I really messed up a lot of plans, haha.
[HAHA!! He loves it.
Imagine an AU where Mahito just got neatly executed week 5 and none of the absolute chaos and madness and hypocrisy that followed his murder happened.]
[Mahito expects any human to throw him under the bus or backstab him or use him for their own gain at literally any moment. That's just human nature, baybee! He's not a bitter or vengeful creature, despite being a curse, so he just accepts the horrific aspects of human nature quite peaceably. Terrible.
He also smiles about that, a twinkle in his demon eye.]
Nah, I'm still holding back.
[Mahito in the raveyard was more Mahito Off The String™ BUT EVEN THEN... Sometimes, you just prioritize survival and thus cannot truly unleash your full cursed energy. With a little laugh:]
I guess! But it's natural I'd accept 'em, since that's what I come from. [His curse origin.] Anyway, yeah! I went back with Childe and he went to sleep again, but I didn't, so I was like - oh shit! Gojou's trying to kill me! And I went around looking for him- [BECAUSE HIS DEFENSE IS JUST OFFENSE.] -and when I was on my way back from the spa floor, bam! Door's opened, there was Gu Yun with Childe's knife! And then he blinded me, hah. [HAH...] So we fought for a while and then took a break for a nice chat and a massage at the spa- [WHY.] -and then fought some more! It was a lot of fun.
[HE IS JUST. OUT HERE. HE'S TRULY A FLEA...
Also the AU would have allowed Childe's true shitheaded nature to stay hidden and that would have been the biggest loss, honestly.]
[ He's just a a curse accepting curses like it's natural, but she gets prioritizing survival. It's what she's doing. It's why she's been more helpful than terrible here, unfortunately. She's not too stupid.
Usually. ]
With Childe's knife, huh? [ Her lips curve into a dangerous smile. That's both horrible and funny.
But wait. ]
—You took a break for a talk and a massage.
[ She feels like she could get a headache, if she cared more. She's not surprised he thought it was fun, though.
She asked him if he had a death kink, and she still thinks it's a valid question now. ]
[IT'S TRUE, HE IS!! A curse accepting curses, and a curse who is nihilistic, but also a curse that does not actively want to die. Sometimes, in this house of gremlins, everyone has to set aside being terrible to be helpful. Their braincells...]
Yup! Pretty funny, huh?
[AND HORRIBLE, YES. Everyone in this house is a backstabbin binch. Anyway, he just nods! They're all shitposts here.]
Yeah! We had some time to spare and I kinda wanted to ask him about some stuff, like his reasons for picking me or whatever. Since we were already in the spa, it was like, why not just take a little break before we try killing each other again?
[They are truly both just out here, doing the most. ALSO STOP. HIS D...DEATH K........ ink....... it's fine.]
[ Assholes are assholes! Who knew? If her relationship with Childe weren't..... I don't even know what it was and I don't know what it is now, but if it were better than whatever it is now, she'd be a little angrier or at least a little more annoyed. As it is, she is moving on from the backstabbing. That's life! ]
Was it because he figured out how murderous you were?
[ Or did Gu Yun just want to know more the benefits of killing? Who knows? ]
But I can't say I'd care to take a little break. You can talk while you fight.
[ Is Medb wrong about him? She doesn't think she's wrong about the death kink. ]
[YALL WITH YOUR HET MESSES... That is indeed life, though. God bless.]
He was pretty sure I killed before, yeah! That, and he wanted his sight back or something.
[At least Gu Yun wasn't like Mineo about it, pretending it was all for the sake of justice. The humans who embrace their ruthlessness and Generally Unfortunate Human Traits are the ones Mahito can jive with the most! Mineo-types are just the ones he finds most amusing.]
Eh, you can! But I prefer to focus on fighting when it's time to fight. It's fun to have chats before or after!
[See: all the times he's just casually discussed philosophical concepts with people before supermurdering them.

I wish I could've seen that. It's the least he deserves for that mess.

[ What exactly is she disagreeing with? Just viewing Childe positively in any way right now. ]
He really was on his best behavior while being a pain at the same time while sitting in an unlocked jail. You really caused quite the mess, too.

Now that you're out as a horrible spirit, you really aren't holding anything back anymore.
[ She's almost amused. ]
Is that how your murder happened? He jumped you from the elevator? You're too accepting of all the terrible things.
[ She doesn't say it like it's the worst thing to be.
But god that AU..... would that be a more or less tiring AU? ]
