Diabris Arkade

Dread Monarch of Night. They/she though that's always subject to change. :) //Mod is Robin. Diabris is extremely flirty and has no shame. Be warned.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Oh calm down, I told you, I'm not going to.

[There's starlight up ahead.]

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [It's a vast city, with torchlight illuminating busy streets. The night sky is even more striking, though. There are a truly vast amount of stars.]

My kingdom! Funny that you came here without knowing about it.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [She waves a hand dismissively. The hallway is looking more and more like a natural tunnel with every step. The distant sound of rushing water is coming from up ahead.]

Only for a moment! I haven't had a pink one yet!

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Like a person! They are all people, after all. Or were.

[She smiles, gesturing to herself.

This one tried to kill me! And she was hot, so I took her body. But unfortunately, bodies don't last forever. I have to swap out sometimes.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel You. Not that I don't like that in you, I just wouldn't want it for me.

[She grins.]

I'm thinking of having some work done is all. My bodies don't stop aging.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Why thank you! I do my best~

[Sounds of wildlife echo from somewhere down the corridor. Distant clicks and chirps.]

For a woman my age, maintaining this sort of complexion is no easy feat!

[She glances at Pixel.]

In fact, have been thinking of changing my...Hm. No, too short.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Oh yes, that's fine, you're not the castle. What I'm doing is sort of like trying to navigate your own views from the inside.

[The sconces have disappeared, but the hallway is still dimly lit. Moss is growing out of cracks in the walls.]

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [She waves a hand.]

I don't know, they all look the same. I'm sure if I don't think about it we'll find our way. That usually works.

[She turns sharply down a narrow hallway.]

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Gladly! There's a lovely waterfall. Come on, this way. I think one of these doors leads there eventually.

[She turns, and moves back into the castle, moving just a little quicker than Pixel's normal walking speed.]

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Mm. So second favorite. The uninhibited parts are honestly my favorite. It's quiet out there, and a friend of mine made some lovely animals to go there.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [She gives Pixel that wide, smug smile.]

Darling you're not ready for my favorite part~

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel It's a courtesy. I'm not evil.

[She looks to the side for a moment.]

...Anymore. Anyway! What would you like to see? I've got a whole kingdom, there's a lot of options!

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel You're cute, and a little scattered. I made an educated guess. If I had known it was a sensitive subject, I wouldn't have made the joke.

[She does a very little bow.]

You have my apologies.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Not that I know of! But I don't know, I'm not in your head!

[She glances over, softening a little at Pixel's expression. She reaches over, tilting her chin up a little with a light touch.]

Don't worry. I was just teasing.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [She shrugs.]

You just seem the forgetful type is all.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [Her smug little smile returns.]

Mm. You would probably understand that sort of thing, wouldn't you?

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Indeed!
...Well, I guess. Sometimes I forget old lessons, but that's how it goes sometimes. It doesn't help that I used to be two people, so their memories are a bit jumbled together as well.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [She shrugs, smile returning.]

It's fine. I've lived like this for a long time. And I have a better handle on it now than I ever did when I was alone.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Oh, I have. But after this long, stuff starts to blur together. I assume every memory I have is a little wrong.

[Her smile gets a little dimmer.]

...Yeah. It was. I almost ended the world about it, actually.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel [She waves a hand dismissively.]

Oh, she got over it. Or she will, I don't know. She only has a fifth of the responsibility I did, she's doing fine.

[She grins.

But yes. I am. I was the original.

[Diabris Arkade @ImpirianMonarch]

@Shatter_Pixel Oh, yes! We think she got the role because the Lonely had her trapped in a tower for a while.
As for me, I've been like this for. Like five thousand years or whatever. The weird part is sharing it.
