"Because I want to not tell people my real name. And it's just what people have called me for... A thousand years, give or take."

Star nodded. "Okay then. May I also ask why your face is so weordly covered?"
-
"It's weirdly covered because if you were ever to actually see my face you'd begin to see my face everywhere you looked. And it used to drive people insane, so it's just a precaution."
-
"So...you're not human?" The woman was oddly curious about the man. "I mean, I'm not either. If you look at my eyes you'll notice one is blue and the other orange."
-
"That's actually possible in humans. It's called being calico and having a genetic defect. So the eyes don't really give anything away at all. But no. I'm not human. Well, I was once, but I'm not anymore."
-
"Yeah, I know. I've used that excuse before. It's just very rare and instantly makes people suspicious of me. Also, you were? What the heck are you now and why?"
-
"I am a homunculus and it's for two reasons. One, it makes me immortal, and two, I got to choose how someone could kill me if I ever wanted them to. I made it pretty funny." [b]A smirk comes to his face.[/b]
-
"You can only die in one way and you got to make it up? Woah, that's...huh. Wait, funny as in how? Funny as in embarrassing or...sexual?"
-
"Embarrassing. I don't do sex, Star. I get enough pleasure from the amount of murder I get to commit on a daily basis. And by that I'm killing vampires, werewolves, zombies, etcetera."
-
"Embarrassing how? Like, do a dumb dance? If I were you and I got to choose I'd make it super specific so it would be near impossible to kill me."
-
"Well the thing is, only I know. But I keep a way to kill me somewhere on me, just in case. So even if I made it specific, what's the real point of I'm just gonna keep my own murder plan on me? I never need to sleep, so I don't need to worry about someone stealing it from me."
-
"Wha....Why would you wear it on you? Then someone could figure it out and kill you pretty easily. I mean...whatever. Your choice, I guess."
-
"Listen, I've been around since the ancient Mesopotamians were grasping how to write down laws. Once you've lived for as long as I have, you go a little crazy. If someone kills me, so be it. I have... Other ways of doing things."

-
"Precisely. Undead and those who use black magic. You know, just the heathens and cretins. It gets kinda boring when it's just a necromancer and I only have skellies to shoot, though."
-
"Really? I'd rather shoot something that's not alive. Skeletons are a bit weak though. Not sure if they're worth a bullet."
-
"They're not. They crumble to dust and make me have to wash my coat, too. It sucks. And I really don't think you've been listening to me. I. Like. To. Kill. Things."
-
"Yeah, I get it. You're a psycho. You're not the first I've met, y'know. I feel bad for people like you, having a loss for certain connections and emotion."
-
"What? No, I have emotion. I get attached to people, I love people, I have empathy. I'm not a total monster. I just like to kill things. It's why I murder undead. So I don't have to feel even the slightest twinge of guilt. They're not people, after all. They're just walking corpses. Literally!"
-
"You just shot a man without blinking. Bullsh*t." She placed her hands on her hips.
-
"Oh, there's a difference between feeling guilt and a lot of guilt. I've killed so many people killing just doesn't get to me anymore. Now if you walk over and shoot my good friend the Priest between his eyes, I'll cry like a little bitch."
-
"Huh. So only slightly a psycho. That's not bad. Wouldn't mind showing you my guns in action sometime if ya want. I'm a rather skilled markswoman and gun slinger."
-
"A true psychopath is hard to come by. And fuсking annoying. 'Oh, I don't feel emotions very well so I use people all the time.' Like shut the fuсk up. People like those are just as bad as the undead I hunt. And sure, I'd love to see your guns in action."
-
"....Psychopaths have a mental illness. I wouldn't exactly make fun of them for it." She rolled her eyes.
