.: Suzuya :.
The albino tried his best to keep his composure, spacing out as he listened to how angry Charles was getting, fed up and simply exclaiming it in ways that only a old guy would do, Suzuya absently wondered if they would be getting anything to eat, or if Charles just called them here to rant and rave over things that annoyed him, though considering his mansion was consisted of his game, Suzuya wouldn't put it past Charles to have brought them here to do just that, this was all due to his own wishes and will after all.
Idly, The albino let out a "oop~" and leaned across the table, plucking one of the makeshift flowers from a vase, as he began to examine the thing between his fingers, trying to keep himself occupied and all the while ignore Charles unless he announced something interesting.
although Suzuya gave a rather displeased expression as he caught Komaeda calling himself trash again.
.: Charles :.
The old man simply nodded, trying to ease up his pint up anger as he lent an ear and tried listening to each and every person's argument as he took them to heart, sure, Charles was a eccentric mad man bent on ending various people's lives just for entertainment purposes.
Yet he also considered himself a fair man, and as a fair man would, he would try to find a solution to the issue that would please him as well as his hired killers, as well as try to motivate the cattle to actually make an attempt on his life, the game was no fun if the master of the mansion didn't get any excitement, after all.
"Teela.. I learned from my past mistakes, as I hope you have also, love only holds us back from our true potential." he stated rather firmly, not wanting to get into it with the maid at this very moment, surely she was heartbroken, but in his own mind he had freed the girl from a mistake she would of regretted, not only that, it would only serve to prolong the game if such a romance were to break out.
"As for killing any of you, I have no intentions to.. yet, I can easily convert any of you killers into cattle if I sense rebellion, do not forget that you are all in my game, and in my game you must live by my rules, Jasper and Komaeda have brought to my attention that Daniel perhaps was to be eliminated due to how rebellious he got.. so I will now agree with that mindset and no punishments will be cast for his eternal banishment." Charles ever so calmly stated.
The man made sure to speak slow enough where everyone could hear him, he wanted to make a point of sorts, soon following up with "Sendo, I have no problem with your methods.. they are always splendid, and elegant, my only problem really is that my killers are getting out of hand as of late, you've been quite busy so I'm sure you might not be aware, but some have been idling living the good life within my mansion, frolicking and befriending the cattle, romancing the cattle, and even slacking off as they read my books or eat my food while neglecting their job as butchers." Charles meant every word, the killers had been slacking off and not even trying as of late, and it quite disgusted him in how they did.
Though there was another matter at hand Charles had to address, and so he started to speak of it as well to bring the subject into the conversation.
"Now... there is also a reason I brought you, the cattle here, " Gesturing towards whom he deemed cattle, he began to explain.
"Due to the fact no one has even attempted on my life, I will be upgrading the risks of the game..
There will be new traps, motives, and perhaps even hostages taken." pausing for a minute to click his tongue, Charles inhaled and finished with "If that doesn't scare you enough, I would like you to know with each passing day, more risks will be added, and soon survival will be slim to none as the days go by." he finished, waiting a few seconds to let his words sink in before he added onto his lecture.
"Now, I understand you might have questions about how bad these risks might be.. or why I am so cruel to place even more difficulties upon you? it's to make sure you try, because for I, the master of the mansion.. this game is my only form of entertainment, and so far, no one has brought me excitement that I long for, I long to feel like I am in danger, and I want to see my life flash before my very eyes... if you cannot do that much, you have no hope of leaving this place alive, do I make myself clear?" Charles now questioned, raising one of his eyebrows ash e waited for the responses of the killers and cattle alike.
