pathopen | Superhell: Scaramouche

[turning back the tides of time A LOT

Nameless is walking around the aquarium because like everything else in hell, this is a new experience for him.]

Do you like the ocean?

[the time government is coming for us...

What a fair and valid lil dude, though. Scaramouche glances around at the aquarium before raising his shoulders.]

I prefer it to more endless masses of rock and lava, if nothing else. Your first time seeing it, I take it?

Yes.

[He will settle down near Scaramouche and look down at the animals hanging out in there.]

It's a nice change from the red.

I can't say I've ever been a fan of the color.

[Red, that is. He is very blurple-themed himself, so maybe that makes sense.

Anyway, he just bends down and picks a horseshoe crab out of the water, holding it aloft.]

I wonder if these are edible.

[Meanwhile Nameless with his ruby red eyes and lack of real coloration.

Watches this little crab try to skitter and fail to. ~~He's just like Nameless for real.~~]

We could ask somebody who can cook.

[Because he definitely has no idea one way or another.]

[SWEET NAMELESS...]

I can cook.

[He doesn't eat BUT HE CAN STILL COOK!! And he feels like he needs to point that out just to separate himself from any dingbats here who can't.]

...But I've never run into these before. No idea if they're poisonous or not, not that it would matter to me.

[Oh, this is new information! He didn't know this.]

Hmm... They might be in one of the textbooks? [These little guys might be edible?]

Hm... Lavi might know, in that case. That boy's always got his nose in a book.

[Not literally, but enough times by now that Scaramouche has just assigned him nerd.]

He does seem to be interested in books. Records seem important to him.

Something about being a bookkeeper... He has a photographic memory, apparently.

[RIP TO YAYWON PERSONALLY FOR BRINGING THAT TO A MURDERGAME]

[BRO IN A MURDERGAME?! DAMB.]

Huh... maybe that's why he's a bookman.

[LITERALLY HILARIOUS WHAT A FOOL]

I'd imagine so. [He will place the horseshoe crab back down finally, the poor thing. It's probably significantly disoriented.] It sounds like a pain, whatever that job of his is.

[The crab take a few moments to regain the desire to walk about.]

It sounds like he's fine with it.

[But Nameless probably wouldn't be great at the same job.]

[Scaramouche also wouldn't, he's already too bitter about the world.]

He's an idiot, so he'd probably be fine with things that a lot of others wouldn't be.

[he wasn't fine with everything that happened on w2, but most people probably wouldn't be.]

The world has all sorts of people.

Unfortunately.

[They're all various flavors of idiot in his humble opinion!!]

At least he has his uses.

What are you using him for?

I used him to try opening a door once and watched him get fired into the wall.

[No regrets at all, that was hilarious.]

[thinking emoji]

Which door was that?

The very first one that was blocked by the baby gate.

[Ah, sweet memories.]

It is better than getting hit yourself.

[Not that Nameless would do this to a random person.]

[Nameless is so much nicer than his rude ass.]

I wasn't about to try anything myself, so it's good that he was there and willing to give it a shot.

[Willing........]

[I can't believe Scara asked Nameless to stab Lavi.]

Willing...

[This does track with what he knows about Lavi.]

[LISTEN. HELP THE FACT THAT NAMELESS ACTUALLY DID.]

Well, he did give it a try when I asked.

[Scaramouche did not tell him what might happen but that's not his fault!]

[HE'LL DO A LOT FOR A FRIEND....Scara has far too much power]

He does seem willing to try things.

[Even if they are ill advised.]
