(<em>City of Angels my ass</em>)<br/><strong>Tagged:</strong>Delilah and Shizuru<br/><br/>He snorted, "I love,<em>love,</em>how absolutely condescending non-humans can be. Talking down to anything that isn't as old as them, because without age you could never have wisdom, knowledge, or even ability and power. Then they turn around and treat humans as if they were the arrogant ones, it is perhaps one of the funniest and yet not funniest things about them." He glanced towards Shizuru, his gaze no longer merely playful, "forgive me, next time I'll show you the respect one of your kind deserves so readily, I guess I'm letting my bias for all things fire and brimstone show a bit aren't I? Weird though, someone not really liking something coming from the pits of Hell, wonder why that would be."<br/><br/>Before he continued to lose his grip on his temper, he turned away from the demon. By now, he was far used to being talked down to, and being considered obnoxious and arrogant, he was over it. If the several thousand year old dragon wanted to think it, fine, but he wasn't going to deal with some uppity hell bitch doing it to, not now, not ever. He had never had a reason for trusting anything from that realm, and frankly, never would as far as he was concerned. At least if he was going to be underestimated and generalized, it was going to be from something he didn't loathe on principle alone.<br/><br/>Turning back to the dragon, his slight flare of temper cooling already, "I'm not however, saying that they'll tell you to fuck off, that's not how it works. You're how old? Come on, you should understand what it means to keep secrets, and I'm sure you had at least a few times in the past several centuries to manipulate and cajole, if only once to pass the time. That's how it works nowadays, they tell you only so much and then eventually we get the result that old Mysterio over here predicted, which really could be entertaining one day to see."<br/><br/>He really wasn't off to a good start with those that were supposed to be his future companions and compatriots. Not that he really cared, most weren't human and that always ended up with him being condescended too, underestimated, and disliked on initial judgement alone. Which was fine, the first two were always to his advantage, hell even when some found out that he was mage, they weren't impressed. Then again, if it came down to it, he didn't always leave them too much time to really change that impression, he didn't toy with his food so to speak, or leave his enemies time to really think. The last was inconsequential, he did not need nor desire their approval, so their opinion of him was null and void. He would not start a fight, he would not fight them, unless they attacked first, he would behave himself.<br/><br/>Plus, he actually found the dragoness, for all her haughty, stuck up ways, to at least be a decent and interesting individual.
