Video; Un: Stranger (Midnight)

[Risk of violent content or descriptions of violence in comments.]

[While the audio is being transmitted on purpose, the video feed seems unintended, offering only an impressive view of a ceiling. Yuber's impossibly deep voice rumbles from close by, over the sound of rattling bones.]

Chaos in this world is far too fleeting and easily ignored. It grows tedious.

[Rustling, then Yuber picks up the phone and for a moment the camera shows his face, flickering in and out of focus. His mismatched eyes are bright with bloodlust but he seems otherwise sickly, as if he hasn't eaten or slept in days.

He disappears from view after he places the phone down again.]

What is a creature of war to do with no war?

...Hmph. Actually, nevermind. Who cares what you people have to say? Nobody in this world has an answer.

If none of you insects will entertain me, maybe I should make some fun of my own.

A creature of war should learn to adapt. That's all there is to it.

[ It's not that easy -- he knows this as someone who basically didn't know peace for his entire life. ]

Don't try to create war where there's peace.

I can adapt but I cannot abide peace. It is so dreadfully boring.

[amakakeru]

You sound like someone who's never had to deal with the real human consequences of a war...Or you simply don't care.

Don't take your boredom out on people just trying to live their lives.

[eightfoldfiend]

The human consequences of war don't concern me. All I care about is the battlefield.

[amakakeru]

Then you're the type of person who shouldn't be making these decisions. There's no need for unnecessary bloodshed just because you're restless.

[eightfoldfiend]

I think bloodshed is very necessary.

[amakakeru]

Of course you do. Keep it to those who think like you and leave innocent people out of it.
