[Video]

[tyrantball]

When the feed snaps on, there's nobody in the frame - just a massive gun. The feed stays trained on it for at least half a minute before it's moved around to stare Desco in the face.

"Listen up, all you humans! Desco and Miss Nano beat up a big red guy the other night, and Desco stole his gun!"

At this, Desco glances away from the video feed towards the direction of the gun and licks her lips.

"Desco doesn't know what it's made of, but it's the most delicious metal she's ever tasted. So the Final Boss is officially putting out a bounty on ALL of the red guys! If you bring Desco their guns, she will personally see to it that someone you don't like will cease to exist!"

A slight pause as she considers her offer.

"Desco reserves the right to refuse if her target has already brought her a gun. And also if Desco likes the target Desco will probably just kill you instead."

She gives the camera a bright smile, showing off her shark-like teeth.

"Now, if you've got all that, heed the words of the Final Boss and go beat up those red guys!"

Addendum:

The feed suddenly snaps back, revealing Desco once again.

"All Desco wants is the guns. If you can get one without beating up the red guys, feel free to do that instead. Bye bye!"

"Huh?"

Desco has no idea what you're talking about.

[greyerrant]

"You spilled the blood of an Astartes and now seek their weapons as trophies? I shall destroy you myself."

[tyrantball]

"Not trophies, dinner!"

Pause.

"And Desco doesn't know what an Astartes is."

She is completely ignoring that last part.

[greyerrant]

"It matters not what you do with them, you shall soon learn precisely what an Astartes is, and what it means to incur their wrath."

[tyrantball]

Desco smiles brightly.

"Oh! Oh! Desco knows how to reply to that!"

She twists her expression into something ridiculously stoic and narrows her red eyes before growling out a sentence in her childishly high voice.

"Come an' 'ave a go if you think yer 'ard enough."

With that, her broad, shark-like grin returns as she beams happily.

"How was that? Did Desco do it right?"

[greyerrant]

"Are you of Orkish creation then? So be it. It shall be as it was as Ullanor."

[tyrantball]

Desco's nose wrinkles at that and she looks disgusted.

"Ewww! You big meanie! How dare you compare Desco's adorable face to an orc's ugly snout!"

She furiously sticks her tongue out before continuing.

"And those dumb piggies could never make something as amazing as Desco, anyway!"

[greyerrant]

"No matter who made you, they shall shortly have to remake you!"

[tyrantball]

"Shows what you know! Desco's daddy is a human!"

Desco is both scowling and pouting.

"And don't even bother TRYING to stop Desco, you lowly fodder character! Low-class demons like you can't even scratch her chitin!"

[greyerrant]

Loken removes his helm.

"I am no demon. I am Legiones Astartes. And you slew one of my brethren."

[all_wound_up]

[Well, Nano was originally going to reply to this to talk to Desco, but then she saw this going on. She's spent some time debating whether or not to respond, but he's already got her name anyway, so she figures an apology is really the only thing she can do.

Which, of course, she will do in a screaming blind panic.]

C-Cerberus-san...! I... I didn't know! I didn't know we were fighting one of your friends! It was the 13th Hour, and he attacked us first, and I thought I was just helping Desco! Please don't kill her! Please don't kill me! Please don't kill anyone! We didn't know, really we didn't!

[greyerrant]

What?

... You, I will spare because I have no doubt you acted out of ignorance. She is daemon-kind, and it was her ilk that destroyed the Golden age of the great crusade. I can no more forgive her than I could forgive my father for betraying us all to darkness.

And he wasn't a friend, if he bore a boltgun such as that, and was painted in red, he was my brother, or cousin at least, a son of Sanguinius.

[ Sadly due to the timing of things Garviel doesn't know about the World Eaters or Word Bearers taking up red color schemes. ]

[tyrantball]

Desco narrows her eyes - the red ones narrow normally, but the golden ones narrow from the sides.

"Red Guy was a weakling! It's not Desco's fault he caved after one attack!"

[not_heavens_adam]

"Do you often threaten little girls? What a brave and strong man you are."

[greyerrant]

"That is a daemon."

[not_heavens_adam]

"No, she's my niece and you're threatening violence on her. Be careful with your words, sir."

[greyerrant]

"She slew one of my brethren. It is far past words now."

[not_heavens_adam]

"I'm sure she meant no personal grievance to you, besides, if it was a matter of personal defense, then there's no harm done here. I can promise you that his won't be an issue just between her and you if you push the matter to vengeance."

Fake smiles and cheeriness all around. "After all, an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind~"

[bakegarasu]

He's not saying anything, but there's someone else on the network, just watching and listening.

[greyerrant]

"Even were I inclined to accept your reasoning, it went far beyond that when she put a bounty on every son of Sanguinius with her little post. No, there can only be war."

[bakegarasu]

Right okay never mind the just watching then. Otoha turns on video, his expression cold.

"If you lay a hand on her I will destroy you."

[greyerrant]

"Get in line then." Cerberus doesn't seem particularly inclined to budge on this point.

[not_heavens_adam]

"What sort of backwater time period are you from that vengeance and war are the only things you can come up with? She's only a child and her ways of thinking are different; are you so barbaric that you hit first and think later?"

[greyerrant]

"I am from the 30th Millenium of mankind, and she is a daemon. What her ways are thinking of matter not at all, her kind are anathema to humanity, as she has demonstrated with her own actions, and I am sworn to end her. Don't get in my way."

[not_heavens_adam]

"Consider me 'in your way,' then because I won't let you hurt her. Just because she's not human does not make her a threat to humanity. Don't color her with the racism you've developed towards others."
