find. kill. cleanse.

A good monster; I have lost

I wanted to see the way the earth

could have toppled, spilling

it’s wild blue across my darkness

I wanted to see

what your eyes would look like

when you fell apart

again and again

“Go away, Overlord,” Tarn shouts back over the wall. “I don’t care about any present and I don’t care to see you, either.”

Especially when he'd sensed something was up. Overlord had to turn to the side to even get inside, and it is a quaint little spot, really, real home-like, but not where he thought Tarn might stay.

There’s really no better way to get Damus to come down from his pedestal than to do something he doesn’t like. Overlord certainly excels at it.

"The more you freak out, the faster you’re going to bleed. Calm down."

"Shhh. Breathe. We both know I'm going to hurt you anyway, so there's really no point in freaking out about it."

"Still not talking, huh? We'll see how long that lasts."

"This might hurt a bit."

"Oh, I’m gonna take good care of you. Don’t you worry."

"You should get that looked at.”

"Still feeling rebellious? Or are you ready to start listening?"

"Hm. Might have overdone it, that time. You still with me?"

"Stay still, and don't make this worse for yourself."

"Try it, if you like - but you won't like what happens next."

"I'll like it more if you resist, of course, but you'll like it a lot less."

“Oh, good, you’re awake. Thought I lost you for a minute there.”

"Learned your lesson, yet?"

“’I did warn you not to do that. But you had to go and give it a try anyway, didn't you?”

"Does this hurt? No? How about this?"

"I wouldn’t do that, if I were you."

"Oh, by all means, go ahead. Give me an excuse to hurt you more."

"See how much nicer it is when we do things my way?"

"So you can follow instructions, after all. That's good to know."

"We can keep doing this all night."
