[ Anyone Looking for Accommodations in the City Royale ]
[There's an address written in.]
Rent's paid through next month. Take it, I don't care. Landlord will be thrilled, I'm sure.
If there's more than one of you, settle it yourselves.
----
Quite the entertainer, our Paradisa. Parties and festivals and carnivals and balls. Don't know how you're not all sick of them, they happen frequently enough.
[He doesn't sound that bothered, though. In fact, there's a distinct upward swing to his tone. Someone's in a good mood for the first time in a long, long while.
There's a pause, and his voice starts to wander like he's splitting his attention.]
Still, can't complain. This one has the potential to be decently interesting. Ah, excellent.
[There's faint hissing in the background, from what sounds to be at least two or three of the fairies.]
Oh, be quiet. That's hardly the worst I could have done.

There's a pause.]
What? Yes. [Still that wandering, half-there tone, though.] Go on, we were talking about how you're bad at what you do.
no subject
...No we weren't.

There are other reasons you're terrible at what you do, then.

Yeah, whatever, fine. Knock yourself out.

Well, there's the over-fondness of humanity, obviously. You prefer them to whatever other denizens of Hell you interact with. Problematic when you're trying to damn them, I imagine, but you're not very good at that anyway.
Oh, you know how to annoy people. Pick at them until they snap and they're sour for the rest of the day, taking it out on everyone around them. It's good in theory, but you don't try very hard. Little internet games and school pranks.
A wide net that only meets the minimum doesn't do much for condemning souls. You could be better, but you're not.
Wonder what that means?
[This is fun. Sidestepping his loss is easier when the conclusion's already there.]
no subject
Still, he hates it being shoved in his face so obviously]
Yeah. I wonder.
no subject
Far be it from me to tell you how to do your job, though, hm?

But if you'd like to continue being sub par, that's your prerogative.
no subject
Oh right. Because he's a crap demon]
Oh, go bother someone who cares. I'm bored of you now.
no subject
[He might as well be cackling.]
no subject
He hates you so much]
