.: Suzuya :.
The albino's eyes lit up at the sight of the candy, and he carefully took it, popping the sweet into his mouth as he savoured the taste, closing his eyes and letting his legs sway left to right in the chair as he started to giggle at how absolutely delicious the candy was.
However, the albino soon paused in his actions for a split second to flash a smile towards the other boy, one that still looked a little forced, but had hints of the boy calming down slowly. "I'm okay as I will ever be, mhmm~" he confirmed to both himself and Komaeda these words, before he went back to his childish antics while he waited for Charles to finally get the announcement made, though in truth, Suzuya still felt a little off... yet the Albino was trying to ignore it and act like his normal self.
.: Charles :.
"I Trust in your opinion, Jasper.." Charles nodded as he stated this, and so forth he cleared his throat before he started the announcement that everyone was surely dying to hear.
"Now then, shall we begin?" As the master of the mansion stated this, His eyes surveyed the table and it's occupants, studying each and every face so he could recognize who all was here.
There was Jasper, his trusted and loyal butler beside him, the one that Charles would even consider his son.
There was Teela, his maid that had recently been acting anything but what he had imagined, quite rebellious at this point.
There was Steven, his security guard plus killer that seemed a little too peppy for his tastes.. but at least he would usually get the job done.
There was Komaeda, a shifty little killer that hadn't quite earned his trust.. not only that, but he didn't take orders well and left a sour taste in Charles mouth.
There was also Sendo, another killer that had not earned Charles trust, he was simply here for the pay, and the old man could understand that, but still was wary of the other.
And as for cattle, There was Koizumi a photographer that had somehow stumbled into his mansion, there was Yuki, yet another unknown face that had stumbled in, but was usual for the slaughter so he decided to keep these two.
There was Timmy, a trashy boy that he had brought in so there would be variety in the kills, he shown the boy luxuries and warm food for the first time in who knows how long, then gave him nothing except despair.
And then there was the interesting Albino, the boy had promised to murder Charles, yet here Suzuya was sitting at the table with eyes that let him know the boy had been crying, and showing emotions such as sorrow didn't impress Charles one bit.
Scoffing, Charles finally decided to quite stalling, it was time for the announcement and it was time that these fools listened well.
"It has appeared to me that some of you are not doing your jobs right, in fact... some of you are acting nothing less than fools." Charles spoke rather displeased, continuing with "I expect more out of my killers than this.. there have only been three bodies in the past three days, and not only that, barely any injured, it's almost as if you don't want to do your jobs right, and honestly that disgusts me."
Charles sighed, shaking his head in shame. "I've called you all here to make sure there are changes... do any of you want to get out alive?" he gestured towards the ones whom he called cattle.
"Then why have there been zero attempts on my live? you should be working harder as well, it's not only my trained serial killers that are slacking off, even you cattle.. or perhaps you like living here? is it pleasing to know that you could be killed at any second?" the man sneered, rather disgusted with the whole situation, at how the cattle hasn't even tried to find him, much less end his laugh, then focused his attention back onto his killers.
"And all of you have been slacking as well.. with the fine expectation of Jasper, who has done so much work all on his own. you should all strive to reach the peek of perfection he has attained, which brings my attention to you... Komaeda." he glared towards the white haired boy, using the boy as an example as he gestured to him and looked towards the other killers.
"This boy has ended not only a guest's life, but one of my other murderer's life.. yes, Daniel has had his times and was being brainwashed by some hag, but to just end his life because of it? I call that lazy, one could of easily knocked Daniel unconscious and brought him to me, and I could of knocked some sense into the boy.." Charles sighed once more with disappointment.
Scooting back in his chair, Charles suddenly stood up he exclaimed. "simply ending another killers life, is not acceptable! you are trained, and payed by me to do your jobs, and I expect nothing less than every single cattle here to be brought to the slaughter!" as he started to move his hands rather aggressively,
he began to add. "And that maid with a teacher that wandered in just last night and even those two white haired boys, you should know Romance Is unacceptable as well! do you think it's okay to act that way? to be... flirting, in my mansion? because it sure as hell isn't!" he screeched, his iris growing as he was losing his temper, though he tried to contain himself, coughing into his palm as the excitement of being angry was just a little too much for the old man.
"There are punishments for such actions. for slacking, for romancing cattle, to think this kind of thing is okay... what do you all have to say for yourselves?" with this, Charles sat down, expecting good to honest answers from each killer and each cattle as he did so, though noticing a slight cramp coming to his back as he sat down.
