"This is Maul. State your business."

Also always up for backdating anything specific done during events or plots that we weren't able to get to e.g. memshares, shapeshifting into other forms, etc. Just let me know what you'd like to do!

Offer to help people sleep with your Force abilities.

[survivalthroughhate]

No.

[ The word comes gruff and automatic. Maul's not inclined to help Sleepers at the best of times. Heck, he's only just started to do so with his close friends.]

[lightthedarkness]

Remember how I said you'd definitely agree to it? Because I sure do.

[survivalthroughhate]

[He's still being stubborn on this front.]

Why should I want to help people who don't like or trust me? Most of them will think this is a trick or just take the opportunity to rub in my face how much they will never take me up the offer.

[lightthedarkness]

Literally because of the reason you just said. Because it's to show you're trying to do better by helping people who otherwise might not trust you!

And if needed, I'll be the one to bring it up, Varian already agreed to help.

[survivalthroughhate]

[He grumbles and growls in his throat but he knows Usagi has a point. His wife, as usual, is right.]

If you two want to form some sort of conspiracy to announce to everyone I am trying to do better, go ahead. But I still think it's a bad idea.

[Yet he won't stop them if they do.]

[lightthedarkness]

Ah ah ah ah. YOU will be there too, this is about and for you, after all.

[survivalthroughhate]

Fine.

[He gives in with bad grace but at least he's agreeing with her.]

Just don't expect me to show any happiness or enthusiasm about this little endeavor of yours.

[Grumpy is as grumpy does when it comes to Maul.]

[lightthedarkness]

You'll thank me when you're not immediately thought of as the suspect for a murder you didn't commit.

[survivalthroughhate]

[In the driest tone imaginable Maul says:]

Wonderful.

[lightthedarkness]

[Usagi knows she's won, that's all that really matters in these conversations.]

In way different news! Wanna meet my Omen?

[survivalthroughhate]

[The change of conversation does make his mood a little lighter.]

I very much would. I'm sure Venge will get along swimmingly with them whoever they are.

[lightthedarkness]

Lua!

[Usagi calls out and immediately opens up her arms, a beautiful, dappled cat jumping into her arms.]

Maul, meet Lua! Isn't she adorable!

[survivalthroughhate]

Very much so. Just like her other half.

[Aw, look at that, Maul can pay a compliment to his wife once in a while!]

[lightthedarkness]

Hee. Thank you.

[Usagi will not deny the compliment when it involves her cat. She's not going to insult her new cat.]

[survivalthroughhate]

Does she talk?

[lightthedarkness]

To me. Does Snuzzle talk to anyone other than you?

[survivalthroughhate]

Not yet. I think they can but they just choose not to.

[He's just going to give up trying to get Usagi to call his Omen Venge the way he and everyone else does.]

[lightthedarkness]

Have you heard of other Omens talking to other people?

[survivalthroughhate]

Not yet. I haven’t had too many people talk to me about theirs though. It’s like people consider them to mostly be a private matter.

[lightthedarkness]

Well, they DO come from us? But also maybe some people don't even know they can summon them?

[survivalthroughhate]

That’s a distinct possibility. There’s some people who I haven’t seen their Omens at all. Skywalker, for one. But it’s possible he’s too stupid to figure out how to summon his.

[Let’s face it, any chance Maul got to dunk on Anakin he was definitely going to take it.]

[lightthedarkness]

Um... well... all things considered, since my omen makes me happy, and I know your omen makes YOU happy, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to tell Anakin about it? Since, you know, I'm pretty sure he frowns even more than you do.

[survivalthroughhate]

Perhaps you should do it. He hates me because I know some of the reasons why he's so unhappy.

[He smirks.]

But maybe neither of us should. He's going to age his skin ten years at this rate with all that frowning and I think he deserves it.

[lightthedarkness]

You're gonna split your face in half with the way you're smiling, Maulrus.

But maybe you're right about neither of us telling him. Hearing things from me probably will make him think I'm just trying to get him to calm down. Which I AM, but it's weird to be accused of it all the time.
