[There's a flutter of what sounds like wings before Vicious actually speaks, and from the sounds of footsteps, he's on the move, pet bird in tow]

The earthquake wasn't enough excitement?

[He'd have to have been blind and deaf to miss what was going on, though he himself seems to be unmarked and unperturbed by the display of human misery the castle has been putting on this weekend]

There's a lesson to be learned from this.

[Although he's apparently not keen on elaborating what that might be. Instead, he's content to continue his walk, both through the castle and around town. There's a lot to see, between the earthquake damage and all the people freaking out over their various stains]

Lessons such as never regret?

[nothingtobelieve]

That would be one interpretation.

[Though he supposes if everyone learned that lesson, things might be a lot more dull]

[heloise]

What could be another?

[nothingtobelieve]

Learning to avoid drawing attention to themselves might also apply.

[If there was something you didn't want people to know, complaining about it was really the exact opposite of helpful]

[heloise]

The sermons were not the most pleasant either.

[nothingtobelieve]

The self-righteous are rarely content to stay silent.

[heloise]

[nothingtobelieve]

Or to hear the sounds of their own voice.

[heloise]

[nothingtobelieve]

I'm sure they would insist on sharing regardless.

[heloise]

Does it make them feel more important to do so?

[nothingtobelieve]

I expect so.
