[he'll walk up the the silhouette, though he's being slow as to not startle them]

Hello?

[You cannot see the person's features, but you get the sense they're smiling kindly in your direction.]

Hello-

[And then a pause. Considering.]

...I see. You've already collected them, then.

[he looks down at the badge and then he looks up again]

Yes. I don't know what they do, but... I suppose I have.

[Their tone turns grim.]

Those are cursed fragments. If left in this world, they'll surely cause destruction...

However, I am a man of the cloth. I can destroy them once and for all, if you'll give them to me.

You surely noticed the golden door in the main hall, no? I hold the key to it. I will give you the key to that door in exchange for the fragments.

The world's salvation is surely worth a single key.

[he squints his eyes. he's on the fence here because this is just a silhouette]

How will you destroy them?

I have my means. Those that are unholy can be expelled by the divine.

[Holding out a hand for the badge.]

... sorry, but I don't trust that.

[he takes a step back, and puts a hand over the badge]

The visions I saw were not all bad, and even if some of them were, they're what makes up a person. I wouldn't want to get rid of my bad experiences either.

[There's a small breath, like a laugh.]

I see. So you've fallen for that demon's wiles.

Those aren't human experiences.

He's as human as I am. He's got a mind and a will and emotions. Just because someone was made after a design doesn't make them less of a person.

[reaching into his pocked for the spray bottle!!]

He is a demon in the shape of a human. Don't you understand?

His likeability was part of the trap from the beginning.

He didn't ask to be. I didn't ask to be born, but I was anyway. He's my friend, and I'm pretty sure being likeable is a good thing.

[can he just.

spray bottle this "priest"?]

[He can! There's a confused sound as the shadows melt away from him, revealing a fairly nondescript man in his thirties or so, brown hair and priestly vestments.]

[he blinks and takes another step back, furrowing his brow]

[Wiping cleaner away.]

-Is this your idea of a joke?

Not really. I don't make it a habit of trusting shadowy figures.

Or people who demean my friends.

Shadowy...?

[He looks irate, if still somewhat confused.]

You do not know what you are unleashing upon this world, boy.

You were just a shadowy silhouette before I sprayed you with a cleanser. There's shadowy figures outside this room too.

[...Now he's suspicious, yet baffled.]

Are you sure you're quite alright?

[he raises an eyebrow]

Are you sure you're all right?

Are you suggesting this place - and all the guests in attendance - is populated by shadows?

And you see nothing wrong with this?

I didn't say there's nothing wrong with it. I just told you I don't make it a habit of trusting shadows. I didn't know I could remove it from someone with the spray, though. You were more... solid than others.

Nothing you say makes any sense. You realize that, correct?

Perhaps you've been taken in far more than I imagined.

Calling someone else a demon doesn't make much sense to me either.

Do you even have a key?

[He produces a golden key from one of his pockets.]

Why are you not opening the door yourself?
