Malus was watching the fight when suddenly the door opened and a girl came in and asked about roses. What interested him was that she seemed to not be affected by his pulse of power that had driven most people to becoming a beast making them want to do their desires with nothing holding them back. He could understand these three from what he could tell from their conversation was that the three of them were immortal, but this girl didn’t radiate power like these three; she must be special somehow or be an emotionless husk to be immune. Didn’t mean that he couldn’t test her, he just had to focus on her, it was like a laser the less the area or people the more precise he could control emotions.
In this girl he sensed sadness, caution, acceptance, and some others. He guessed that this girl was cautious because of the so called warrior being thrown across the room and him lying there when the girl came in, but the others probably someone she knows anniversary of death or some other kind of crap, but he could use those emotion, but the only ones that he cared about was the caution, patience, and sadness. while he could increase emotions he could also dim them to the point that they though that did increase the opposite effect, but this girl let’s see how would it feel if he upped her impatience to levels where she would get a little grouchy and decrease her caution to level that where she would act before she thinks, and a little depression wouldn’t hurt her.
He looked at the other two men here the big ones anger and pride were high, and the one that had smacked him was lazy and subservient to the goddess, a little fear, a little honor, some kiss-upness, is what that emotional construct was. Well if he was gonna stand here in this corner then those two might be fun, increase the big one pride to blimp level and anger to berserker, and the little ones subservientness needed to be eclipsed by his laziness. Before he worked on that the goddess had spoken to him “what would you like me to call you, Mam or Lues, and to your question about did I see the riot outside, yes, I did but I don’t think she did she walked right through it and didn't even seem to bother her.”
