Kairos growled as Yisini coiled around him, angrily squeezing him.
“YOU WERE GOING TO RUIN MY EXPERIMENT!”
The serpent was furious. The thought that the Time God and the Death Lord were going to meddle with one of her most crucial experiments drove her crazy.
“They’re… ugh… they’re suffering…” Kairos moaned. He tried to switch forms, from that of a wyvern to that of a more draconic being, but Yisini simply made herself longer and coiled around him even more. “I… thought you didn’t like suffering!”
“I NEED THEM!”
With a hiss, Kairos managed to gets his right arm free and get a grip around Yisini’s chest. Yes, he was squeezing her boobs with his claws, but he needed to get the Allbirther off him. Rather than calm down, Yisini decided to make her tail even longer, twisting it around Kairos’s snout. A quick nip of the end of her tail though made the Allbirther change her mind.
“Really?”
“You have your dumb Kronospasts that you experiment on! And I let Epani mess around with the Vohra! Why can’t I have my little experiments?”
“Because…” Kairos paused. “I don’t know. It just seems somewhat needless! At least I’m learning stuff with-”
Yisini screeched and slapped Kairos across the face. “You killed 20 of them last week! For heresy!”
“They were threatening to build an army to kill a peaceful me-worshipping cult!” Kairos protested. “But really the shit I do is no worse than… whatever is wrong with those Thraki!”
“They are alive and healthy though…” Yisini calmed down briefly, giving Kairos a chance to shake the serpent off his body. The Allbirther twisted her way around Kairos’s neck, but this time she playfully poked his horns and feathered tufts. “They have healthy lives with everything they need.”
“Are they alive though?” Kairos asked, pulling Yisini off him. “They are basically robots. They do nothing. They are… almost an antithesis to everything you preach.”
“You think?” Yisini coiled herself up, shrinking down into a more manageable size. “I guess you’re right, really. I was just curious as to what would happen. I suppose I should already know the answer to that though, I’ve been watching those Temthan Thraki for like a few thousand years now.”
Kairos grunted. That was a long time from a mortal point of view. “Has anything… happened?”
“Not really. Same thing, day in, day out.”
“So maybe it is time to let them have creativity?”
Yisini smiled. “Yeah, maybe. I dunno, I kinda expected that, without all the distractions of things like that, they might stumble across something I hadn’t ever considered. But all they do is the same old thing.”
The Whenvern didn’t say anything. Yisini shrugged, then looked at Kairos, a huge grin sneaking up on her face.
“I should test out my new stuff on them!”
“What new stuff?” Kairos found himself asking, even though he didn’t really want to know.
“My new formulas!”
“Oh.” The Whenvern was satisfied with that answer. Unfortunately Yisini decided to elaborate.
“The new one that makes things fuck a lot!”
Kairos tutted. “Why did I expect something different? From the Allbirther, the Patron Saint of Sex no less…”
Yisini twisted and twirled around Kairos, still grinning. “It’s what I do. Actually Arkadin suggested it when I confronted him about this, and I thought it was a brilliant idea. I was going to do it anyway but…”
“But what?”
“But it’s nice to know that great minds think alike.”
“So do idiots.”
Yisini pretended to not hear Kairos’s comment and changed the subject. “Is little Arky alright? Where is he even resting right now?”
Kairos simply shrugged. “I have no idea.”
The Allbirther shrugged, then rushed off. “Oh well! I got things to do! See ya!”
“Uh, bye…”
