Opinions without 3.1415 are just Onions (Week1 post trial)

[ghostricked]

After everything, the house seems almost too still and too mundane. At least as long as the doors to that room remain closed. One by one those covered in what was once their teammate are lead to the showers or change in silence. There is no warm meal waiting for them. No words of encouragement.

Life goes on, regardless.

[He tried and therefore no one can criticize him!! But huh, that's actually faster than he thought.]

...Well, it's not like I have anything else to do. [He'll pull out a chair from the table and take a seat, crossing his arms as he settles in his spot.]

What made you take up knitting, anyway?

[soupervillain]

Honestly, it just started as something to do to to kill time. There's actually a lot of downtime in crime, you know,? Like when you're casing places to rob, or when you're waiting for the rest of your minions to show up because someone got the rendezvous time wrong again, Ben. But then it actually turned out to be pretty fun? And, heh, I ended up ruling at it, obviously.

[ He flips his current bandanna-in-progress over and starts on another row. ]

What about you? Got any hobbies other than policeman-ing?

[eyeforai]

[A rather ordinary story, despite all the hubbub about being an evil villain. But considering literally everything else about Giovanni, the knitting thing probably suits him more than the villain part.

He blinks when the question is turned on him though.]

Me? [...] Well, I collect some things, like vintage magazines and other stuff. But things had gotten busy lately, so I hadn't really been thinking of any of it until you just brought it up.

[soupervillain]

[ excuse you, his knitting is extremely villainous!! ]

Magazines, huh? Not too easy to get around here, I guess. And "busy" sure is one word for it... or did you mean back home?

[eyeforai]

[maybe in his wildest dreams!!!]

Back home, yeah. Although they haven't exactly let me get a hold of many since I arrived here either.

[soupervillain]

Well, yeah, I guess they wouldn't. What's been keeping you so busy at home, though? Locking up innocent criminals?

[eyeforai]

They're not innocent if they're criminals. [The flattest stare gets sent in Gio's direction before he lets it up.]

But yeah, something like that. I was working on a case before I got here, and I also had my roommate to take care of.

[soupervillain]

[ Gio stares back. you're not the boss of him ok!! ]

Ooh, tell me about the case! Give me the juicy crime details! Not to brag, but it's entirely possible my brilliant criminal mind will provide some insights. I'll only charge you half my usual consulting rate.

[eyeforai]

[wow!! rude?! not that Date's the highest up on the totem pole but still!!

At Giovanni's enthusiasm though, another flat stare gets sent his way, although there's something a little more tired in his eyes.]

I'm not gonna pay you a single yen no matter what you say. [...] And besides, this isn't a good time to talk about that case. Just... forget I said anything about it.

[soupervillain]

Don't worry, I will!

[ He's really good at forgetting things! ]

[eyeforai]

[Wow, that was easy. On the other hand, he does get a few points for that so congrats, Gio?]

You're actually pretty obedient, aren't you.

[soupervillain]

What?! N- no! Giovanni Potage obeys no master but himself!! I just... don't want to be a jerk for no reason, that's all.

[ So, yes, is the answer. Yes he is. ]

[eyeforai]

Uh-huh. [This is definitely a sound someone makes when they believe someone.]

Well, I appreciate it anyway. Although it's a bit strange for a self-proclaimed criminal to care about being a jerk.

[soupervillain]

Look, just because I'm a bad guy doesn't mean I gotta be rude about it!
