[The little vampire seems to be in a particularly foul mood this day. Who better to take it out on than random strangers who have no reason to care about her or her whims? ]
This world can be a rather difficult one for one unaccustomed to the concept of 'affection'.
[She says it like its a foreign concept to her entirely.]
I understand it, of course. I have not lived as long as I have without learning of a concept so commonplace. It, however, has never been a part of my life. And now, because of this, a lady such as myself lives like some sort of commoner in this world. I cannot say I approve of this at all. Remilia Scarlet should not be forced to live in an APARTMENT. It is like a cruel joke.
[Or perhaps she merely overestimates her own worth. Getting her to admit that would be very much an impossibility, though.]
I have been here for some time and never thought to ask. Is there really no better way? Must I go around letting others invade my personal space merely to acquire the wealth I am used to? How frustrating.
[Why is she complaining about it now? Everyone has to let off a little steam now and then.]

[She does miss her rustic family farm and the neon does get a bit tiring to her eyes, but there are amenities she could only have dreamed of in this place.
Then again, she is a commoner. Always has been. Maybe she just doesn't have high standards?]
In any case, have you tried any of the jobs around here? I know it doesn't create quite as much but it is a good supplement if you're struggling.
no subject
[An obvious frown touches her face at the mention of seeking out work.]
I suppose that might not be ENTIRELY out of the question, though I am not over fond of being beholden to a schedule set by another.
[In other words, she'd probably make for a trash employee.]
no subject
Don't... throw... one? There's plenty of fancy events you could attend here?
video (un: redbaron)
[ Says the faintly scruffy looking man who seems to be broadcasting his response from a workshop. ]
But something tells me that any sort of actual labor would be beneath a lady of your stature?
[ He smiles, but it's quite pointed and full of judgement. ]
no subject
[Her eyes narrow, and her arms cross over her modest chest.]
As I stated, I will not allow another to dictate what I do with my time. To be beholden to the whims of someone lesser is something I will not tolerate. If I can find a task where I can work on my own schedule, perhaps it would be tolerable.
[The judgemental look, of course, did not pass her by. It is the sort of expression her own face would wear fairly frequently, after all. But she seems content to not bring it up, at least for the moment.]
no subject
[ His expression... softens somewhat, but he still gives off the air of someone too smugly full of himself.]
It is a pain in the arse to have to march to the whims of someone with no proper grasp of what you excel at.
[ He then gives his head a curious tilt. ]
What would you say you excel at?
no subject
[She does not seem overly bothered by the air Nero gives off. If anything, the confidence makes it easier for her to take him seriously.]
Many of the talents I used to reach the top are of little use here. There is little call for subterfuge in a city where people are so garishly open about everything. It would be much easier if could simply conquer it, but I promised someone I would not try.
[Also, she'd certainly fail. But mostly the promise.]
no subject
Subterfuge, eh? I've heard tell there's interesting work to be had down on the third and fourth levels, if you know where to ask about...
[ Talk of conquering sets him to laughing, though. ]
Trying to conquer the place would cut into your leisure time, I imagine. I can't say it would be worth the bother.
no subject
Ah. I do not often venture that far down. And I do not know where to ask. I imagine I could find out if I truly cared to.
[She does sound mildly interested, the annoyance in her voice earlier seems to have faded.]
Yes, the problem with conquest is people will always try and overthrow you. I have always found it more useful to have willing subjects. Still, the last time I tried it, it served as an amusing distraction at least. But you are not incorrect, it probably would not be worth my time.

What's wrong with affection? Hugs are great!
Video
Ah, you ARE here.
[How do you explain something to someone who's mind barely works?]
I suppose for someone like you, hugs may be fine. It is not so much for me.
no subject
[ All of these were valid questions considering the world they came from. ]
no subject
I...how does one answer questions like that? I suppose I would say I am not overly fond of them? Or perhaps I am merely choosy about who I do it with.
[In the end she decided to just go with honesty. Koishi wasn't STUPID, she just thought a bit differently. Maybe she'd understand honesty.]
no subject
You should hug people you like. And the chroma will make the hugs even better!
no subject
Warmth does not mean the same thing to me I am afraid. If I hug someone, I would not make them warm.
[Again, just straight honesty. Her body isn't warm. Still might be nice depending on the mood, but she won't easily admit that.]
no subject
[ But isn't that what Sakuya is for? ]
no subject
When you are not used to it, it is nothing more then an oddity. I do not miss it because it is not natural to me.
[She is silent for a few moments.]
Though I suppose it may not be all bad.
no subject
[ The background of the little youkai had shifted to the soft lighting of a building. The perspective was strange. She was close to the ceiling. ]
And if you find people you enjoy cuddling with then you wont have any chroma issues anymore.
no subject
[That sort of arrogance might be annoying to some but is probably lost on this particular conversation partner.]
And it is needing to do such things that I was voicing my concerns about to begin with.
[It doesn't seem unusual to her for the little satori to be on the move, she seems the sort to barely be able to stand still to begin with.]
