video; might as well get this pantheon started

[ Here's a teenager, holding his phone up to record himself as he lounges in his kickass new throne. Really, he's practically draped across it, legs dangling over the arm. What can be seen of the temple around him is... dimly lit and sparsely furnished. But he grins, looking totally self-satisfied, with the kind of obnoxious smugness that 18 year olds are particularly adept it projecting.

His eyes go black as the torches' flames flare up in size and intensity. ]

Bow down, bitches. The mortal coil's about to make a biiiiig comeback.

[ GRIN.

...

There's a bit of an awkward pause as he cranes his neck to look around. ]

So who the hell-- [ Does he own Hell now? HEH. Yeah, he has to pause to snicker. ] --knows anything about interior decorating? This place needs a serious makeover. [ Chase needs a makeover while we're at it. He's projecting 'high school student' instead of fearsome death god. ]

[ Tatra giggles. ]

How did you do that with your eyes? It was so cute~

[bastardofipswich]

[ Chase's face falls for a moment. WHY IS NOBODY IMPRESSED BY HIS COOL WITCHY EYES. ]

How is it cute? [ pls... don't call him a seal. (OR DO) ]

[tatra]

They went all black! Like a doll's, even.

[ Tatra calls literally everything cute. Sorry Chase. ]

[bastardofipswich]

[ omg NEVERMIND HE'D RATHER BE CALLED A SEAL AGAIN. At least they eat penguins. ]

Or! Like a witch's!

[tatra]

I've never seen a witch with cute eyes like that.

[bastardofipswich]

I--

[ ARGH. He snaps his mouth shut, frowning, the black in his eyes fading into his normal blue human eyes. ]

Well, what do witches look like where you're from?

[tatra]

Just like anyone else, naturally.

[bastardofipswich]

Oh. Well... It's not like that where I'm from. Black eyes equals magic, not dolls or seals!

[tatra]

That's right, isn't it? Some animals do have big black eyes like that. I've never seen a seal before, but they sound cute!
