_{[ The feed clicks on to reveal the device face up and sitting on the floor, facing the ceiling of an apartment. What pans into view is what seems to be the head of a deceased boar sitting on top of.. a very fit and young looking man. With a snarl, he picks up the device with an aggressive motion and holds it straight out to him, beginning to pace with the device. Looks like someone has (somewhat) learned how to use selfie mode. When he speaks, his voice is loud but extremely low for someone his age. ]}

THIS IS FOR THE STRONGEST PERSON ON THIS PLANET. IF YOU ARE NOT HIM, SHUT UP.

_{[ A dramatic pause and then a deep breath: ]}

I AM LOOKING FOR THE STRONGEST PERSON HERE--!! WHOEVER IS THE STRONGEST, FIGHT ME!! I AM THE ALMIGHTY INOSUKE-SAMA AND AM A WORTHY OPPONENT. TALK TO THIS MAGIC BOX IF YOU WANT TO FIGHT. I WILL KICK YOUR ASS, YOU MAGGOT!!! KEHAHAHAHAHA--!!!

_{[ He's pressing a lot of buttons haphazardly on the device before it finally cuts off. ]}

No one else is worrying about you properly, right?

[ No, that's probably a lie. ]

So, it doesn't bother me to worry about someone like you.

[ Because it's funny. Because it's entertaining. Because, maybe, this person will be fun to kill. ]

[boarishness]

I DON'T NEED TO BE WORRIED ABOUT!!

I ain't some baby that needs to be coddled..!! You're making me feel like I need something like that, I don't!! What the hell is up with that?? I hate being underestimated, dammit..!!

[nobodylikeshim]

I'm not underestimating you at all.

[ In fact, he may be overestimating him. ]

To care about someone is to believe in them and wish the best for them... I have no intention of coddling you.

[boarishness]

Oh.

...

WELL, I DON'T NEED THAT BULLSHIT EITHER. I'll do my best with or without your wishes, idiot!! You'll see me and tell me how amazing I am..!! HOW STRONG INOSUKE-SAMA IS!! I'll be talked about in stories and admired for being who I am and what I do..!!

[nobodylikeshim]

Hmmm, hmm, yes, yes.

But, isn't that caring about you?

[boarishness]

MORE LIKE WORSHIPING ME, WHICH THAT TIME IS COMING SOON..!!

[nobodylikeshim]

Why do you want them to worship you?

[boarishness]

'Cause..!!!
It's nice..!!! And I deserve it!!

[nobodylikeshim]

Yet you don't deserve people caring about you?

[ He's just being difficult at this point 'cause he realizes this annoys boar-boy. ]

[boarishness]

_{[ It's working. He's just very dumb. ]}

...

I DUNNO!!! You're making me do a lot of thinking..!!
Besides, you ain't seen what I can do yet!! So why you just going ahead and caring about me, huh??

[nobodylikeshim]

Because it makes me sad to see people all alone.

[ Pfffffffffft!!! ]

[boarishness]

Mmmmmm...
Guess it is kinda sad, but I don't really think of it that way.

I see it more like freedom than something bad.

_{[ Also it's probably cause Inosuke has been all alone most of his life until recent, so it's just natural for him to be numb to it at this point. There is, however, suppressed memories of his human mother. He doesn't like to talk about her that much, though, and denies the fact he was even born from a human for that reason. ]}

[nobodylikeshim]

Normally, I would agree.

[ Since he generally does his own thing and is not connected to anyone. Certainly, he has those that he calls "friends" and "associates." But he could easily leave them all behind without being troubled by it. ]

There is freedom, but there is something sad about it, too. Because in being alone, there is no one who can really hear us, right?

[boarishness]

SHITTY MAN. I FELT FINE ABOUT THIS BUT NOW I DON'T.

[nobodylikeshim]

Okaaaaaaaay.

[ Does he really believe all that drivel that he just said? Not really. At least, not if he relates it completely on himself. He doesn't mind people can't understand him. The messed up state that he is -- he recognizes and is all right with it. But he can also understand how it would upset relatively normal people.

Connecting with people, sympathizing with people, worrying with people -- those things he really can't do. That level of empathy isn't something that Hisoka has or wants. But he can be irritating about such topics. :) ]

Fair's fair.

Hmmm, but anyway, it'll be good to have someone who worries about you. It means that you'll only be able to get stronger and stronger than what you already are. So, since no one else is offering, I'll take it up.

[boarishness]

HUH. I MEAN, OKAY I GUESS.
I can’t really force you to not unless you want your ass kicked.

[nobodylikeshim]

Yaaaay.

So. Introductions. I am Hisoka the Magician, and you are?

[boarishness]

Okay, Madoka.

I AM THE ALMIGHTY INOSUKE-SAMA!!! JUST LIKE I SAID!!!

I slay demons..!! And tear apart things!!

1/2

[nobodylikeshim]

.... Hisoka.

[nobodylikeshim]

And figurative demons or real demons?

[boarishness]

Real, man eating demons!! They exist where I come from, and I kill’em cause eating people is wrong!!

[nobodylikeshim]

Is that so?

And how do you fight them?

[boarishness]

With my Nichirin swords...!! I use two of'em..!!

_{[ Oh, he'll just pull them out from behind his back. They look brand new, but then they have little notches in them. He strikes a pose with them. ]}

And I slice the demons' head clean off!! KEHAHAHAHA!! Weak bastards..!! The technique I use is all my own..! I'm the only one who uses my kind of breathing!
