It sighs and puts its claws on its head, shaking it and withdrawing to the ceiling. "I... understand. But I have to ask... are you criticizing me, or are you seeking assistance? I need to know. Have I been failing so badly, so horrendously that mortals have come to my domain just to tell me off? Oh, Father... I'm so sorry..." It coils around the holy steel pillar, the smell of burning fabric and meat filling the air.
Ichigo steps forward again, taking it's helmet off and setting it on the ground. Bugs of every kind begin to pour out from the armor. Three thousand, four thousand, perhaps even more skitter around but a voice echos from them "Look at me... Disgusting... Unable to be loved so I love others instead because they deserve it.. I love Felix, I love the cat, I love my bug friends... Have you lost your love? Have you forgot what it is like to love?" It asks in a compassionate tone.
The monstrosity sobs and falls to the ground with a wave of pillows and blankets. It slowly lifts its upper body off the ground with its main arms, the humanoid torso shrimpy compared to the rest of its obscenely long, grub-like body. It looks like a plush dragon, overgrown and fattened and restitched in a cycle unbroken for thousands of not millions of years. "My name was Myrrh. Hers was Eve. I was supposed to be her toy..." It huffs. "I was supposed to be there for her! I was supposed to love her when her father couldn't! When... our Father couldn't... but he left her in the cold. Cast her out. She died, with me in her arms. And I could do nothing. I couldn't love her enough. I've tried again and again, to bring the joy and love I was meant to give, to make up for the life I couldn't save... but they all die." It starts picking photos off the walls. "Every last one." He hugs them tight. "I tried to hard to give them an escape from the evils of this world... but the evil finds them anyway. I hate my brothers and sisters. I hate the Father. I hate the Serpent that cursed us all. I am so full of hate that I don't know if I can love anymore... I haven't been held in centuries. Even my children rejected me, called me 'smothering' and 'embarrassing.' I expanded my scope to the whole world. I gave them treats and adventures, things to do so that they wouldn't hurt each other. Fun and games."
"You are a beautiful... whatever you are. By brothers and sisters... they see my efforts as a necessary evil, and I don't understand. I don't ask for gratitude or recognition, or even for them to care about my creations. I just want them to be happy. But, by Father Himself, they refuse every time. My creations are commodities. My life is unseen and uncared for. Ichigo... please... what do I need?"
"I am not.. I know this.. but thank you for your words.." it says, it's words less broken up. The bug skitter around, suddenly converging on it and crawling across its skin, like a pair of arms hugging it "It is okay.. we are all ugly but we have the strength to be beautiful... Felix is beautiful... You are beautiful as well.." it says "It is hard being a parent... Watching your children grow from small little ones into those who you know could fight gods... You did everything you could and more." It says quietly.
So spend your hours on What you think I've done wrong I know I'm in your mind I've been here way too long I want to spend my life With those who've done me right Your heart is frozen over I'm a four-leaf clover
Omori is whittling at a piece of wood with a small blade. While still rough around the edges, her creation faintly resembles the hilt of a sword.
Isaac puts down his crossbow "you need help with that?"

It sinks to the ground, gently petting the bugs wrapped around it. "But it wasn't enough. What do I do? I feel like I'm blind... I can't see how to help them all..."

Ichigo reforms back into his armor, his eyes relighting as he looks down at Felix "I would.. like to.. hear your wisdom.. on this.." he says, looking back up at the Nightmare Entity.

He pulls out a whittling knife and begins carving the hilt
She watches him work, internally taking notes. "So, I don't believe I've ever asked- what brought you here to the Inn?"
"town I worked in flooded. what is this knife for?"
