[In a picture perfect seiza, Yugamu waves politely to start the video.]

Hello, everyone! I've spoken to a few of you already, but I wanted to try and make a more professional first impression!

[Putting his hand down primly on his lap, and smiling brightly in a way that could not possibly prepare you for what he's about to say;]

My name is Yugamu Omokage, and while I'm a professional assassin, currently, my goal is to become a doctor! If anyone has any tips on how to best further my education, I'd love to hear it! That said, if any of you are personally offended by Dr Spim's conscientious bedside manner like Mr. Silco, I'm happy to provide an alternative, I have lots of hands on surgical experience!

[This absolutely needless shot at Silco is offered completely blithely like it's funny to him, rather than a genuine mean spirited critique of the man.]

The other thing I'd like to ask after is information about the kaiju. I know there's some on public record, but I'm curious to get more personal accounts, particularly if anyone else has tried taking them apart or tested any toxins on them!

In any case, I look forward to working with all of you! My previous monster killing experience was with people my age so I hope to learn a lot here.

hahahaha

what the fuck but also fuck yeah

seems like LILITH finally listened to my letters to bring cooler people

( video | un: fishbones )

[powderkegs]

[ hm. looks like her dad didn't do anything stupid. she hopes. ]

Ohh, but a docssassin sounds way neater.

[vivisexual]

[Being complemented actually throws him off his rhythm to be honest.]

Oh! Thank you, I suppose?

[vivisexual]

[No Yugamu likes him very much so far.]

Hmm... That does have a certain charm to it.

You're thinking "heal with one hand, harm with the other"?

[powderkegs]

Nope!

Just thought my name was cooler, s'all.

[fursuit]

you're welcome. not to get into my whole spiel but as the resident god of conflict, the less boring, goody-goody types, the better, in my opinion

anyways. two things

1) hahaha what did silco get pissy about

2) I've taken apart kaiju. I usually try and eat part of them so the inner workings are pretty familiar. can't tell you about how toxins work on but anatomy stuff? sure. what are you curious about

[vivisexual]

[He blinks, then laughs.]

You know, there's already a term for a medical professional that's also a killer.

[powderkegs]

[ a loose shrug. ]

Is it cooler than docssassin?

[vivisexual]

[A lot to unpack here. Usually it's Yugamu inflicting that on other people.]

1. He seems to believe that having a proper bedside manner trying to make patients comfortable is mutually exclusive with medically rigorous treatment.

2. A lot of things! For one, how are they similar or different anatomically to the animals they resemble, as that'd tell me what toxins or other forms of attack they might be susceptible to. And it wasn't at the forefront of my mind, but now that you've said it, the same for taste, purely out of curiosity.

3. How literal of a god are we talking about?

[vivisexual]

You tell me. People alternately use the term "Angel of Mercy" or "Angel of Death" depending on the situation and motivations of the individual.

[powderkegs]

Eh, I'm not into those.

They feel weirdly preachy.

[vivisexual]

Docssasin it is then!

[He thinks it's a little silly sounding but why not.]

I'm not terribly interested in continuing the family business, but I suppose if need be from time to time, I'm not entirely opposed.

[powderkegs]

[ silly is fun, at least. ]

What made you change your mind?

[vivisexual]

Well, it's the family business so it's less I changed my mind and more as I grew into myself I developed my own opinion on it.

[Regardless, time to get weird.]

I just find assassination so impersonal. Murder is such an intimate act, I want to save it for someone I care about, someone who wants to kill me just as much!

[fursuit]

1. should have known. yeah that's silco for you I guess is all I can really say there

2. structure-wise they're pretty much the same as the animals they're closest to. like with a handful of them there's some organ that I don't know what it is, but I assume it's related to the weird shit they can do. like just with a random example, making lightning. but otherwise? pretty typical. if it looks like a big snake, its insides looks like a big snake. nothing has been totally alien to me.

tastewise. not sure how they'd be to the general palate, but pretty good? guess it depends on how you feel about offal since those are the parts that I'm usually going for. the meat ain't bad though, just maybe a little risk of rift contamination, but it's not major. you can find it if you know where to look basically

3. very literal. I'm Tezcatlipoca, almighty god of the Azteca. here in the flesh for reasons that are a long story but the real deal nonetheless

[vivisexual]

1. I've only just met him but I like him quite a lot, it's cute how serious he is about his crime boss image. I'm hoping to do some work for him when the opportunity arises.

2. Offal is my favorite, actually! Both raw and cooked are good, though usually for each organ I think one or the other is slightly better. What risks does eating meat with rift contamination carry?

3. I haven't heard of you, but a lot of Earth's history has been lost or is deliberately unavailable in the TRC, I think. There isn't much I know of outside Japanese history. Either way, that's interesting! I've never met a god before, only a crazed woman who's trying to become one.

[powderkegs]

[ hm. ]

Yeah? You looking for your one true murder love?

[vivisexual]

[Oh he lights up at that.]

Yes, exactly! There's no greater romantic act than murder!

[powderkegs]

[ you know what? whacked, but there's something there. ]

What kind of murder? There are levels to the romance of it.

@nightshitty

[mikoshi]

"Hey everyone, I kill people for a living! Also, let me in your guts." Think we gotta work on your bedside manner too.

[vivisexual]

[Jinx immediately on his good side for even sort of understanding where he's coming from.]

Hm... I feel like the most romantically appropriate method would depend on the person to some extent...

But I will say, nothing like a "Romeo and Juliet" situation. There's no real romance in a misunderstanding. I want my beloved to struggle desperately until one of us breathes our last, our hands covered in each other's blood!

[powderkegs]

[ she doesn't know what that is, but whatever. she got the gist. ]

Oh, oh, but what if it ends in a giant explosion! With fireworks and light! To symbolize the love!

[vivisexual]

I was merely offering!

Besides, an efficient killer also has to become intimately familiar with anatomy and the workings of a human body, especially one working with poisons as I do. Knowing how to kill a person often means you know how to treat attempts to do so by others, you know?

[vivisexual]

[With complete sincerity;]

I've already experienced death by explosion, I can't say I enjoyed it particularly.

I appreciate your vision, though! Just not to my tastes.

[powderkegs]

[ hold on. ]

You blew up?

How come you're in one piece then?
