[ Tezcatlipoca licks his lips once he has it open, since he’s truly a cat… He reaches in, and with no warning whatsoever, he just bites into the heart like it’s an apple. It immediately makes a mess, of course, but he doesn’t seem to care about that either. ]
You say that, but you been shocked yet? It actually hurts like a bitch. Put me and my pal Izou down immediately when we got into it. [ izou voice: WE’RE NOT FRIENDS ] Though, doesn’t matter, since I get your point. Better to keep it away from their immediate notice, probably. One of those things where if you’re quiet about it, they’ll look the other way, I bet.
[ He pauses to take another big bite, since this one involves tearing into the thick muscle more. It’s always satisfying every time. There’s the energy he feels immediately, since even kaiju hearts have enough mana for him to partake of, but this is also satisfying something visceral for the god of jaguars. ]
I’m sure there’s a guy, though. You gonna threaten him or blackmail him?
[ Also, interestingly, one of his irises lights up in that telltale way that indicates he’s using the messaging functions. Whatever he’s doing remains unexplained, though. ]
I think LILITH would prefer plausible deniability, hm? They invest a lot in having us here, after all. And it's not like it is to their disadvantage.
[ At least by Silco's mind. He doesn't even blink his single eye at Tezca, he's used to his heart-eating shenanigans after all. Hell, at least this one wasn't ripped from a man's chest.
Oh, the odd creatures he seemed to gravitate towards. ]
After all, if I own an organization like this, they have some measure of... investment.
Better than some businessmen with more power and money than they have.
[ Silco knows he would rather one of his "underlings" do something, rather than Piltie. He might not be able to control them, but...there was the idea of it. The principle. Besides, they could use the connection. The both of them. ]
I'll start with Blackmail, of course. If that doesn't work, well. Violence speaks a different language he may listen to.
[ His eyes flick toward Tezca, but he doesn't stop him. The god was... whimsical. Did his own thing. He suspected that it wouldn't be to put an end to what they were doing, so he let it go without a word.
[ Even as he chats away about something crucially important, most of his attention remains on the conversation with Silco. He nods, since Silco’s idea is essentially what he’d guessed at. ]
Exactly. Get in deep enough and I figure LILITH won’t have the inclination to say no. Being the lesser of two evils isn’t a bad place to be in. At least in this case.
[ He makes a thoughtful noise and goes silent for a moment as he considers it. It makes him miss his work in the Lostbelt a bit of getting the Ocelomeh society up and running, scamming Koyanskaya, making his arms factories… He’d thought about doing the same in Kenos but hadn’t had the chance. Here? Well, he could, but it wasn’t the same, especially since he’s missing some of his divine powers that make things go more smoothly.
…Not that there was any competition in the Lostbelt, though. So, it’s a bit different. ]
Either way, sounds fun. [ fun… ] Blackmail isn’t my kinda deal, but you need violence, hit me up.
[ Silco released a soft chuff of air that could almost be considered a laugh. ]
You? Err toward violence?
[ He remembers the world he's from, and what it looked like He understands that Tezca is a creature of it — but he is a god of conflict, of course he is. That's a given, isn't it?
It's why Silco enjoys Tezca's presence, where he would usually be irreverent towards godhood. After all, gods like Tezcatlipoca, and Set, are gods of conflict and war, and what is Silco, if not amenable to change brought on by violence? (in fact... the base violence etc etc) ]
Don't worry, Tezca. Blackmail is my area of expertise. Violence on the other hand... [ He flicked his lighter open, and closed. ] Well, I'm less flashy. That doesn't always send the right message, does it? I prefer to have people who are reliable, to fill in those gaps.
