Video; un: darkness
[The video turns on and it's everyone's not-so-favorite Sith Lord. He looks better than he did upon arrival though he wears the usual expression of just barely contained fury he's known for. Sitting next to him is a creature that might be the stuff of human nightmares given how they're all teeth. They could have easily been mistaken for a monster in this place were it not for the fact they're remaining perfectly still, Maul's right hand resting along their back.
If you're all done fooling around with these devices like the children half of you are, perhaps we can turn our attention to more serious matters. Oh, and for those of you who had hoped I wouldn't find my way here, so sorry to disappoint.
[Though he sounds anything but.]
For one, I recall a lot of bleating about organizing a government and such during your charming little witch hunt of me. I assume for most you that was all talk but surely there has to be a few enterprising souls that were serious. If so, let us talk more. I am most curious given I have some experience with running an entire planet. [Venge, the Maalraas sitting by Maul, paws him gently.] Oh and has anyone else found themselves suddenly with an animal companion?
[Then, having blithely insulted a good three-fourths of the population, the video is turned off.]

He didn't. But we're past that conversation. [Because Maul will forever say Glitch deserved it, Usagi will forever say he didn't. Neither was going to budge but considering it was over whether someone deserved to have their limbs chopped off, Usagi was 100% feeling in the right.]
Remember how we talked about how threatening people and then not following through with said threat isn't some big gesture of kindness?
This is that.
no subject
And what else can I do then? I won't apologize and crawl on my belly, groveling to everyone on how much I have wronged them and how I shall feel guilty forever over it. We both know that's not me.
no subject
[Usagi withholds from pointing out that Maul's "not me" is not entirely HIM either considering how much of Palpatine is his personality instead of... Maul's.]
no subject
[Yep, there's a lot of Palpatine still infecting Maul's thinking despite his best attempts to shake it off. Children absorbed a lot from their parents and Maul had done the same with his adoptive father for better or for worse. At least when it was pointed out to him it gave him cause to hesitate.]

[She grins.
Be afraid, Maul, be very afraid.]
We're just going to have to widen your list of who you care about to the population at large.
no subject
Maul's got a clear scowl on his face.]
I have reached my limit for caring about people and refuse to do it anymore.
[That's not how it works and they both know it but he's being stubborn for stubborn's sake right now.]

[He's in an irritable mood and not up for letting himself be manipulated because of his foolish pride.]
no subject
Fine, tell me about your friend there. [She didn't forget about the toothy creature beside him.]
no subject
This is Venge. [Venge pokes him with a paw and he rolls his eyes.] Full name is Vengeful Snuzzle but I refuse to call such a magnificent creature by such a ridiculous name. They are a Maalraas from my home galaxy, Force sensitive creatures with hides so thick even a lightsaber is hard-pressed to go through it. I think it is somehow part of me given the way they appeared.

She can't hold it in.
She is suddenly bursting out laughing.]

MAULRUS AHAHAHA HAS A MAALRAAS! AHAHAHAHAHAH!
no subject
I'm not telling you anything anymore.
[He says in a surly tone. Meanwhile, Venge has collapsed into a heap just to the side, rolling from side to side with how much they're laughing.]
no subject
[Because OF COURSE Usagi would pick THAT name to go by.]
no subject
You are a traitor.
[He growls. Then he turns his attention back to Usagi.]
And you are no better!
