What a curious child this Mati was. Her demeanor concerning this morbid topic was light and simply curious. Not brooding or dark like it would be with most people. Maybe she was just curious about everything. Even the unpleasant stuff. Onus had never had such a happy little spark for knowledge. Maybe he had, way back before his mother's attempt on his life. Maybe he had been a normal little kid with normal thoughts. A part of him thought that that was true. But it had been so long ago and he was so detached from anything like it that it was hard to be sure. It was nice to see a pup so carefree though. "Dying usually not fun." He had brought death down upon countless heads. Each time he had watched as the life slowly left their eyes, leaving them cold like a doll's. All of their deaths hadn't been fun. But that had been his purpose. They had made others suffer, so they needed to suffer as well. The man only killed quickly when the only other choice was letting them get away alive. That just wasn't acceptable. "Not many make it out of it. That's why." Who would want to talk to a puppy about drowning? That seemed very odd to him. Shit. Now he would have to dance around the real reason he knew that her father was dangerous. He couldn't tell her the truth. Onus wasn't one for sugar-coating things to people, but this was different. It would be better if she didn't know everything. "Don't know him. Heard of him. Did bad things." The man hoped that that would satisfy. He didn't want to bring up Anu or go into any detail about the "bad things".  |
