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.

[Why wouldn't anyone just thank a genocidal demon king???

He rests his head on his shoulder, humming contentedly at the petting, squeezing his fingers, voice soft.]

For existing as well. I'd like to thank you.

When you're also a genocidal all powerful being, it's easy!

"For existing?" Do not understand.

Vergil in general of course. But you specifically as much as that other half of his soul. Your strength to survive. Your greed and insatiable desire to exist. Your stubbornness. Your power. All you are.

Thank you.

"...I see." Well he doesn't know what to say about that but he doesn't argue. He pauses. Yes, he should be thanked for being part of Vergil and existing actually! "We would be dead if not for me."

[He laughs softly and closes his eyes.]

Mmhm. But that can be said of the other half of your soul as well. I am thankful to both parts. And the whole.

"Had he not intervened there would be only me. Nothing to do with survival." Except for Vergil existing as a whole. But. Whatever that's not the same as making sure living was possible!!

[He lifts his hand to flick Urizen's forehead. Not in the eye though.]

Yes. There would be only you. And I am fond of and glad for you. I love you as part of Vergil. But it is Vergil I love. So I am grateful to that other half as well.

He glares, and those roots curl tighter.

"You should love me." Is he like legally allowed to say the l word? Only because it's for being demanding and entitled.

Hmmm~

[Now he's just being a teasing jerk. He'll try to pull Urizen's face closer.]

Should I? --Ah but you might not get that I am teasing you hm? I do. Is my being with you not proof enough?

Well up close like that you can see his charm point which is: snaggle teeth, like a cat, because Vergils are cats.

"I will not abide your mocking." Won't he?? So placated like this??

[Oh no. Cat. He will kiss his cheek, smug.]

Yet you will abide my teasing.

I love you too, by the way.

Fangs. Pointy little teeth for a demon king cat.

He goes on glaring! "I said no such thing."

[How is he so cute!]

Mmhm.

[That earns a gentle kiss on the mouth.]

Hey. Show some respect! There's a rumbling, displeased noise. But he doesn't actually stop you...all bark and no bite.

"Watch yourself."

[That earns a chin kiss, just going to shower this demon in soft affection now.]

Why should I?

"Do you wish to displease me? Surely you know what thin ice you tread upon." He could kill you if he wanted, shut up.

You do not seem displeased to me.

[He gives him another kiss on the cheek, fully entilted to teasing this demon king.]
