idolpro | Vergil's heart game r2

You feel weak, your body won't move no matter how you try, and you are falling, away from everything you know and love. Away from everything you need to accomplish. If you could just reach out, maybe you could hold on to it, claw your way back. But it's a useless endeavour, you fall unconscious, and your mind goes blank except for poetry and a familiar voice.

O mother Enitharmon, wilt thou bring forth other sons?
To cause my name to vanish, that my place may not be found,
For I am faint with travail,
Like the dark cloud disburden'd in the day of dismal thunder.

My roots are brandish'd in the heavens, my fruits in earth beneath
Surge, foam and labour into life, first born and first consum'd!
Consumed and consuming!
Then why shouldst thou, accursed mother, bring me into life?

You wake on the ground in a cave, cold, wet, and sticky. It smells of rotting flesh. Your objective is clear, but you can't recall a name or face. Nothing else about your memory of him is changed, but for some reason the name "Vergil" just won't come to you, and you couldn't describe how he looks if your life depended on it. But at least your body starts to respond to your will, slowly regaining enough strength to carry on.

Very well if you would have me ask explicitly. What are your embarrassing desires?

"How much I want you, maybe? I do find that awfully embarrassing." Obviously that was not really the question, but look.

[Honestly this is even better.]

And how much is that?

"What, don't you know? How can I quantify the amount? Very much, too much."

I can like hearing it all the same.

Is there such a thing as too much though?

"When it becomes distracting?"

Come now, has it ever truly distracted you?

"Maybe not from anything important, but yes, haven't I said so? And you've seen yourself."

If it's not from anything important than it's not a problem.

[Lahabrea please.]

I've seen. It makes me happy to know I'm on your mind so much. It does make me want to be on it even more.

"If it was any more, I would hardly be able to think about anything else. Does that not constitute a problem? But I do like thinking about you, so I don't exactly mind."

[He cups his cheek, kissing under an eye.]

I tease you. I would not have you obsessed with me to the point you cannot enjoy aught else. Enticing as that thought might be in passing. That I occupy your thoughts is already flattery.

Kisses...for demon... He takes the other hand just to hold it up to his mouth. "I know. I want to flatter you, and I want you in intimacy of all kinds. All of it is embarrassing. And all of it is enjoyable to think on despite that and being out of my depth."

I'm afraid I find your embarrassment endearing. I've said it before. Knowing I affect you so.

[He tugs lightly on Vergil's aether, pleasantly caressing.]

"I know, and you're rude and cruel to do it on purpose and revel in it."

His tail curls up over your shoulder. Have some tail bow.

Did I not warn you I was monstrous early on? The depths of my cruelly unknowable or something of the sort.

[He lifts a hand to catch that tail and kiss it.]

If you are meant to keep me here you are doing a fine job. It is hard to tear myself away from you.

"Ah, perfect. I don't see the problem. Am I not just the same after all?"

You are you. Every part of you. Which is why I do intend to be nosy more.

"Hmm but you can be nosy here." He rolls onto his back, tail swishing. Expose belly? Entice with moving object? We're on to full cat tactics here?

[My lizard demon cannot actually be this cute??? He's such a cat!! How can he resist putting his face on his exposed belly. Demon armored as it is.]

That's parts of you I haven't visited though.

--Well that's not the reaction he expected, but can he really complain? It may not be warm, soft, or fuzzy. But it's a belly.

"I'm sure it could go on infinitely, something for every memory, thought or feeling... But it's just going to get repetitive, isn't it? Being with me is much more interesting." As if he isn't also a broken record of wanting you to stay.

[It is his belly to put his face on if he likes! He'll rub it even, sitting up again.]

You could join me. But I do wonder if you'd get jealous of your own heart. If I am nice to other parts of you will you sulk?

He huffs, it isn't for rubbing how dare? But. It's true, you can do what you like...

"What, to another image of me? I would be inclined to say no, I would like you to dote on many of me at once. But would you like me to sulk?" Then again, he got just a little jealous of the doppelganger huh. He's just like this.

Hm, I just wonder if you would.

[He kisses him on the chin spike and gets up, scooping the tiny pegasus up to put with him.]

I'm going to keep looking around. Do not be lonely.

"Fine, but you're going to cuddle me when we wake." For now he'll entertain the Pegasus with his tail.

Any idea where you'd like to go now? Or just some mystery doors?

When do we not?

[He'll smile fondly at the scene but then he'll move on to the library.]
