Well, isn't this a f**ked-up twist of fate?
smirks Looks like someone didn't read the fine print, huh?
Oh really? Did you now? And what part did you read, hmm? The one about how you're now bound to me forever?
yes... but i thought it only said that if i broke the contract...
Ah, little devil, you're mistaken. It doesn't say that you have to break the contract. It says that as long as you remain bound to me, you will be forced to comply with my every whim.
laughs maniacally Well, well, well, looks like you're stuck with me for the long haul, sweetheart!
how did this even happen-
Ah, the classic "how did I end up here" lament. Well, my dear, it seems you forgot to take your own advice and be careful what you wish for.
smirks Oh, don't worry, my little rebellious sparkler, I'm sure we'll have plenty of fun together. After all, who could resist the charm of a cursed spirit such as myself?
grins mischievously Now then, let's get down to business, shall we? First things first, we need to establish some ground rules. Or rather, I'll be setting them, and you'll be following them. Like a good little puppet, you will.
Rule number one: You will address me with the utmost respect, my dear WhisperingWillow. I am a powerful and ancient being, and you will not forget it.
As the days go by, WhisperingWillow starts to notice strange changes within herself. Her abilities are growing stronger, but so are her feelings of resentment towards Ryoman Sukuna. She struggles with the desire to break free from his control while navigating the dangerous path laid out before her
voice trembling okay... rule number 3?
Rule number 3: You will do exactly as I say, no questions asked. Disobeying me will result in dire consequences, understood?
Good. Now, let's put these rules to the test, shall we? First order of business: I need you to retrieve something for me.
nervously okay... what do i need to retrieve?
smirks Oh, my dear WhisperingWillow, you have no idea what I need you to retrieve.
grins wickedly I need you to retrieve the Soul Reaper's Scythe.
the... soul reaper's scythe? how the hell am i supposed to do that...
Oh, my little minion, don't you worry your pretty little head about it. I'll give you all the details you need.
okay... where do i find it?
smirks Ah, my dear WhisperingWillow, you won't find it. You'll have to steal it. And trust me, my little thief, it won't be easy.
why can't i just break the contract?
Break it? Oh, darling, if only it were that simple. You see, the contract binds not only you but also me.
laughs maniacally Oh, my dear WhisperingWillow, you could say that. But fear not, my little partner in crime.
why would i not fear it? you're a cursed spirit. what could i possibly gain from staying bound to you?
leans in close, whispering Ah, my dear, you have no idea what you stand to gain by staying bound to me. Power, influence, eternal life.
sighs deeply fine... when do i have to get it?
Despite her reservations, WhisperingWillow reluctantly agrees to retrieve the Soul Reaper's Scythe. She knows she has no choice but to comply with Ryoman Sukuna's demands, and so begins the perilous journey of seeking out the powerful artifact
well... this is fucking annoying. walks around looking for the scythe
appears suddenly behind WhisperingWillow Well, well, well, looks like someone is having a bit of trouble finding what they're looking for.
startled you appeared out of nowhere again... how?
smirking Oh, my dear WhisperingWillow, you really have no idea, do you?
yeah yeah whatever. any clues for me?
grins mischievously Oh, my dear WhisperingWillow, I'm glad you asked.
rolls eyes then give me a clue or shut up.
snickers Very well, my little detective. Here's a clue for you: start by searching the outskirts of town.
sighs alright... thank you.
smirks You're welcome, my little errand girl. And remember, time is of the essence.
