Not playing nice.

 Action - Morning - The Bay

[Waking up was unceremonious for Perfect Cell. As it normally would be for a being with no need for sleep. Glaring up at the cavernous ceiling with all those white lights brought back some memories. None of them good. Nothing but screaming, burning and falling. With a defeated sigh, he sat up within his cocoon, giving it a once over; the box sliding down to fall open in his lap. An audible chuckle left him and echoed throughout the cave.]

How quaint.. Reminds me of my youth. Strange, I didn't regenerate in such a way after the explosion..

[Perhaps the spilled contents, more so the 'welcome pamphlet' between his knees, would answer some questions that buzzed about his dome. It took Cell no time what so ever to read every tiny detail of what the paper had to offer. All of which made his lip curl disgust. Room and board, money, a job? Preposterous! He had no need for such things as a normal being would! Taking only the real necessities, the android freed himself of the cocoon, levitated across the water and out the closest exit. What he thought was freedom was only more annoyance being greeted by the hologram.] 

There's a lot to go over, and many people stop listening just about now, so try to-

Yes, yes.. I get it! 

[Cell snarled, swinging an arm out to all too easily backhand the magazine rack and hologram aside with a wave of energy. A small way of venting frustration. Pity for the giant insect, it was going to be all down hill from here because of it. Sour as ever, he stood and leered out across the landscape.]

Hm.. Where to st-

[Too late. The defensive gas from the hologram unknowingly to the perfect android did its job. Cell slumped down onto his knees then just as undignified, crashed forward into the dirt. Out like a light as once before.]

((OOC: Hope I did this right to let the guardians come in and teach the bug man to be nice! Please by all means tell me to take it down and edit it if need be!))

"You asked if I was a stage performer." The ember-like lights danced all the brighter. "I said no." He answered! ... No he actually knows this is dick behavior but at this point he's pretty sure he has a right to be a dick.

"Unstoppable and perfect are very strong words." Not arguing, just pointing out- "Those do often lead to disappointment later." Elias.

A snort, a brief cloud of steam curling from the open nose hole, and from between the creature's sharp teeth.

"My head isn't that heavy."

HELPFUL.

See, now he definitely can't tell Cell he has no bleeding idea what he is. Because then he'd look stupid, and he definitely doesn't need to look stupid in front of this guy.

Anyone is unfun to be stupid in front of, he doesn't need to do it in front of a big jerk.

Cell laughs, and... well it seemed Elias couldn't entirely help himself.

There's a dry, soft creak, the sound of bone gently rubbing together and ivory teeth scraping apart as the skulls mouth opens. Wide, like the smile of a crocodile, the long, thick, wet pink tongue inside lolling, rolling off just slightly to the side.

For a moment, a single ribbon of saliva, as thin as a hair, slips free of the creature's skinless face, and falls with a near inaudible plip against the ground.

"No."

Aaand not the reaction he expected! He wasn't sure what he was expecting, Cell wasn't human that much was obvious. But it wasn't fascination. There's a click as the jaw shuts, the eyes lighting up in faint confusion.

But hey, an apology was an apology, no matter what the emotion attached to it was, right?

"Exotic...?" Weird was usually the word. Horrifying even more often used.

Then again... He was talking to a cicada man.

"... It isn't a question I've thought of before." About as close to the honest, clueless 'I don't know' as Elias was going to get.

Oh no. Oh no. His effort to avoid one question made one question into two questions how did this happen oh no oh dear. He can't answer that one either oh no.

Abort mission.

Mercifully for Elias, in this case, he really can't emote, the only indication that he's even feeling a lick of internal discomfort being how the lights shift to the left in the sockets.

Help.

The DNA joke does, indeed, sail right over Elias's head, but it doesn't go without comment. Because it gives him an excuse to change the topic onto something that doesn't require him to answer the question.

He hopes he's not a chimera though, gosh that'd be shitty for him.

"Why were they so interested in your DNA?" A pause. "What are you a chimera of?"

Yes.

Good.

Thank goodness, that worked perfectly. Elias settles in, and quietly, patiently, happily listens to Cell tell him all about himself. Nodding every so often to show he was, indeed, still listening.

And he was. This was, honestly, highly interesting. He'd never stumbled across anyone quite like Cell before. Well... species wise. There were plenty of humans and fairies alike with that personality.

And the topic never did wander back to Elias, so the entity was more than happy to answer this question!

"There is no escape."

... Excellent phrasing, Elias.
