003; video; and/or action for neighbors
Jan. 21st, 2011 08:30 pm[Who is this smartly dressed young lad sitting on a porch? Without a skull for a head or his adult voice, Roman is just any other neighborhood Dennis the Menace type kid (with a Mr. Wilson living on either side), and he has no qualms at all about acting the part. He smiles brightly for the camera.]
Detective Diddler's my dad and some skinny bastard is his husband, I think. Maybe his wife. Who knows, not important.
Anyway, judging from the poorly written notes I found hidden in a desk drawer, I think I'm the reason this guy--
[The video pans over to Slade's house.]
--has his curtains closed all the time. He also has a dog, a gun, and an eye patch. No surprises there.
[The video returns to show Roman holding up this note.]
So, Mr. Wilson. How many bodies do you have in the backyard?

and then you get this:]
So you torture people to sate your anger.
spamspamspam! oh god no the sharks!
Date: 2011-01-23 06:59 am (UTC)No, I kill people to sate my anger.
I torture them because I enjoy it.
spamspamspam! sharks? WheraughaahahAHRJSATHGH
Date: 2011-01-23 07:16 am (UTC)We'll start with the torture and work our way up to the killing. Good lord, that was insinuative.
Why torture? It's not exactly a conventional activity of leisure.
spamspamspam! sharks? dem muscles ain't helpin you now studly mcstudmuffin

You've taken hostages before, haven't you?
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-24 05:41 pm (UTC)As fun seems to be your main motivator, I remind you that there are clubs in which you can enact your... [Finger motion.] morally objectable fantasies. Mix pleasure with pleasure and business (which is a whole other issue to discuss) with business if uniting the two has you drilling into people.

Date: 2011-01-24 07:24 pm (UTC)And I'd much rather enjoy myself in the privacy of my home rather than in public.

Date: 2011-01-26 12:53 am (UTC)The rest of the universe would much rather you didn't. You'll be forever turning into a child if you continue wanting or trying to indulge.

Date: 2011-01-26 01:02 am (UTC)What do you mean 'forever turning into a child'? You mean this is a punishment instead of merely an irony?

De-aging just seems to be one of the more frequent afflictions.

Date: 2011-01-26 01:16 am (UTC)When was the last time you drove?
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 01:31 am (UTC)[He might regret asking this, but:] why is torture fun for you?
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 01:42 am (UTC)I just told you one of the reasons. Do you want them all?
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 01:55 am (UTC)I'm reducing the speed just to listen. [Only by a ten.] What does that tell you?
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 02:02 am (UTC)It's an art. The bending of another's will by almost mathematical physical and psychological punishment, well, it takes time and dedication to master. So much to learn, so much finesse required for perfection...you're limited only by your own creativity. The options are endless.
And I like the screams.
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 02:18 am (UTC)You're finding a threshold and pushing your victim beyond it. There's nothing artistic about that form of physical aggression.
As for enjoying the screams, start listening to metal.
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 02:27 am (UTC)The art is in the technique. There's nothing quite like getting a person to beg and cry for mercy before you've even touched them.
And I only enjoy screaming if I'm the cause.
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 02:37 am (UTC)A few idle threats can accomplish that, I find. It's nothing spectacular.
There are numerous types of screaming. Try for one that doesn't require maiming.
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 02:42 am (UTC)My favorite are the types heavy with pain and desperation. Those are best elicited with maiming.
[Beat.]
Well, second favorite. Probably.
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 02:52 am (UTC)And your first favorite...?
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 03:03 am (UTC)What? No. A rectum? Is that what you think I do? I don't want the person getting off on the torture; I want them pissin' their pants in fear. Honestly, Nygma...a fucking rectum...
[He shakes his head and rubs his temples.]
The first favorite are the kind that are heavy with pain and lust.

Date: 2011-01-26 03:16 am (UTC)That was an ironic follow up to your previous comment. [He's vaguely amused by his own wit.] It's a slight improvement, if not ideal. You can participate in that legally.
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 03:26 am (UTC)Different occasions, Diddles.
spamspamspam!
Date: 2011-01-26 03:32 am (UTC)Why don't you focus on the one that isn't morally objectionable?
