I'm back. Did ya miss me?

[Standing upon the water's edge of Eltrut's beach, Denji can be found skipping rocks into the depths of the ocean proper. His focus on the crashing waves with his bare feet absorbed by the rushing waters, a stoic expression washed over his features as he sighs solemnly.]

So who else had shitty parents growing up, huh?

[A small pause before tossing another rock into the sea, plopping himself down onto the ground before turning his full attention towards the feed.]

I don't remember much about my mom she died when I was real young from a heart condition but at least she wasn't around to see how big of a prick my dad turned out to be. He was a real piece of crap all my life until he crooked and left me with his problems too.

[Denji wasn't about to tell the masses what actually happened to his father after finding out none too recently but that was besides the point here. A half amused burst of laughter erupts as he tries to lighten the mood a bit grinning fiendishly.]

I can't be the only one around here with an asshole for a parent so what's all your stories?

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

I killed my mother.

[GONNA ELABORATE ON THAT, NAEVA?]

I'm sorry, that must have been terrible for you to live like that.

[... Denji was missing? Ranma honestly hadn't really noticed. To be fair though, he was in the midsts of others disappearances, he must've missed it. And... shark boy's looking all uncharacteristically melancholic. Normally, Ranma doesn't like divulging private info, but... well, he's already mentioned a few times how much a piece of work his old man was.]

Preaching to the choir there, chains-for-brains. I know the feeling tho. Pop's still kicking, but he has a habit of dumping his problems and messes on me to make me deal with them. It's a massive pain in the ass.

Hm, to answer your question would have to mean that I had parents in the first place.

Cloud's the best dad, though.

Our creators tried to destroy us.

Never had parents. Place I grew up in was pretty shit, though.

[Denji cannot help but blink wide in mild surprise at the admission but given he too murdered his father wasn't too surprised someone else had crossed that threshold as well.]

So you killed your mom? What did she do to deserve it?

[Denji simply sighs with a shrug of his shoulders starring out at the ocean.]

It was a pretty shitty childhood but he had what was coming to him. I was a lot happier when it was just me and Pochita looking out for ourselves that's for damn sure.

Pochita...? Who is that?

So your dad makes you do all the heavy lifting when what he just kicks back and relaxes?

[Shaking his head a bit to himself as he thinks back to his own father.]

Sounds a lot like my dad when he was pissed drunk doing nothing at home but gambling all his money away.

Hold on so you never met your parents at all? Damn that sucks, Nimona. I kinda wonder if I would have been better off that way too though.

[The latter part makes Denji cock a brow in confusion.]

Huh?! Wait- So Cloud is your dad now?!

[ She switches to video too. And shrugs. ]

Dunno. Maybe I met them in another life. All I know is that I was alone when I was little. No one taught me anything.

[ A grin. ]

Yep, I adopted him as my dad! You can call me Nimona Strife from now on!

[This gives him a flashback to that fateful night his father met his untimely demise, Denji's voice little louder than a whisper as he piped up.]

Sounds familiar...My dad tried to kill me.

Tried plunge the world into eternal darkness and create an undying kingdom of vampires by sacrificing me and my friend. Probably my brothers, too, but I didn't know I had more than one of those at the time.

[UM.]

I don't remember my parents or even sure if I had any.

Guess that makes two of us.

[Color him curious.]

Your world does sound really weird from what I already know but what was it really like?

What's with people not knowing their parents around here is like half the population orphans or something!?

[Rubbing the back of his neck with a solemn groan.]

You gotta have some parents though how else could you be alive, right?

(And well, this gives them pause.

It is, as far as they understand, highly atypical for organics to be hostile toward their progeny.

However, this doesn't not mean it does not occur.)

We are sorry.

(There is little else that can be said.)

My world, or the part of it I grew up in?

This is Pochita.

[A hand moving to the pull cord which protrudes out the front of his simplistic t-shirt with a solemn look plastered over his face.]

He was my pet devil. We made a pact to keep each other alive after my dick head dad died and worked together to pay off his stupid debt to the mob or else they were gonna kill me. Which...They sorta did anyways.

That's rough.

[But he tries not to dwell on the negatives here for too long when after saying she adopted him as her dad causing the boy to scrunch up his nose with a tilt of his head.]

Uh...Isn't it the other way around? I am happy you found yourself a good dad like Cloud though better than a deadbeat like mine was.

Wow that sounds like something out of a video game or movie that's pretty wild.

[Wait- Something else she says on top of all that crazy shit crosses his mind after taking it in.]

HOLD ON- DID YOU SAY VAMPIRES!? ARE YOU A VAMPIRE!?

[Denji purses his lips with a shrug of his shoulders.]

Uh...Both I guess?

It's all good dude not like there is anything you could do about it.

[Denji had moved on from both his parents deaths, especially his father who treated him as nothing more than a nuisance.]

You said your creators tried to kill you too, right? What happened there?

Out of a what?

[And then he deafens her. She is quiet for a moment, and then sighs very tiredly.]

I am a dhampir, and no, I have no interest in eating you.
