Funny Business
You know what I never do? I never talk about my character's pasts.
Okay, that's a lie.
Anyway. :)
Have a baby young adult Vineno, as your official introduction to the man!
If you see any typos, no you didn't <3
[Oh yeah, google doc]
--
It’s grisly work, what purple bloods are comfortable doing to their fellow trolls. As he watches yet another body fall limp at the blow of a flailing club, Vineno thinks that this might be a far cry from the actual responsibilities of the highest of the land dwelling castes. To say nothing of the smell of blood thick in the air and the deafening sound of laughter and horrified screams. It’s enough to give the purple blood a headache that’ll last him the rest of the week.
Needless violence, needless noise.
As if his prayer were being answered, all at once the shouting from either side of the fiasco is gone. Silence and the smell of death are all that hang in the aftermath. Vineno, for his part, is less than impressed by the entire display.
“Let me get this straight,” he speaks slowly as he steps around the carnage left behind by the subjugglators seeking to indoctrinate him into their sect. “There’s no real rhyme or reason to it? Wrong place, wrong time?”
That’d always been a burning question of his, but he was fortunate enough to make it this far into his life without having to deal with clowns this up close and personal.
“Maybe if they were faster and stronger, they wouldn't have anything to worry about.” One replies with a grin.
A few others roar with laughter behind her.
“Just that simple, huh?”
“Yep. You in?”
It’s not logic that he felt particularly interested in arguing against.
Easy enough to follow.
Vineno shrugs. 
“Yeah, why not? It’s about time I did my part in the name of the Messiahs.”
The other purple bloods cheer, quite boisterously, in response.
They are simple creatures.
“Alright, that’s what I like to hear!” The leader, he guesses, manages above her troupe. “Now we just gotta get some paint on you and the Grand Sunderer will be happy to meet ya’!”
What a name.
“Good plan.”
There is an increase in the volume of whooping as greasy hands pull him into the group.
“New guy has to get the drinks!” Someone calls from the back, and Vineno feels himself smile.
How contagious, their mirth!
“Easy enough.”
Hours must have passed from the raid, to the securing of drinks, to the two pairs of hands that slather his face in grease paint.
The two artists above him discuss the best design to adorn him with, barely glancing down to get his input on the matter.
“How’d you make it a whole ten sweeps without finding yourself a troupe anyway?” One asks.
He shrugs.
“Not much of a talker, huh?”
“‘Least he’s cute!” The other, awfully bubbly, chimes in.
This is more socializing than he ever bargained for.
Finally, the finishing touches are being put on his face and he is shown a mirror.
It takes a lot for him to bite back the laughter their handiwork conjures; Two thick gray markings, in a sea of white, come down from the bridge of his nose and around his eyes, then they skew sharply down his cheeks toward his neck.
Pure artistry.
“Snakes! They’re like. Minimalist snakes.”
“I see.”
“Sunderer will love to see it, we promise!”
He couldn’t care less. He only nods in response.
“Alright, alright. Let's get you out there!”
And then those greasy hands are on him again, tugging him up and out of the room.
What a handsy group of people.
“Vineno! Welcome to the family, brother!” Calls who must be the Grand Sunderer as he is tugged along by the two trolls that did his makeup. The pageantry of this lot is almost entirely too much to suffer.
They stand by a table at the end of a great hall that must be stuffed with all of the clowns this church had to offer.
Even better.
“Just like that?”
“Of course! Unless the drinks are bad.” The Sunderer is a large and jovial spirit, but the thinly veiled threat is a bit heavy handed.
They’re never seen outside of their church walls. Why should they be when they have such a good troupe to subjugate the masses?
Such a hard mark.
Vineno says nothing as the leader that got him into this mess brings him to the head of the table where the grand highblood pushes one of the drinks the newcomer supplied forward.
“You first,” their smile goes nowhere. “No funny business, eh?”
He eyes the drink for a moment before securing his hand around the glass and knocking it all back in one go.
“I am a terrible clown, I don’t do funny business.” He says as he sets the glass back down.
“Ah, there’s plenty of time to fix that!” Sunderer declares as they chug down their own drink which gets another uproar in response.
The rest of the clowns start to drink their fill.
The drinking lasts well into the morning and the following evening. If he’d known that these clowns were going to drink themselves into their graves, he would not have bothered wasting all of those vials of his poisonous mixtures in their booze.
Each of those morons must’ve had four times the amount he intended to give. Mixed with alcohol?
That sounds fatal.
Vineno steps around the bodies, twitching in their stupors, as he douses the last of the church in the gasoline from his pack. They were having so much fun they never even realized he slipped away from their celebration to grab it.
Simple, simple creatures.
As he passes by, the Sunderer grabs hold of his ankle. The grasp is much more feeble than their stature implies they should be capable of.
He says nothing as he looks down at them.
“What did you do?”
“Mm?”
Their face contorts into something that must be anger.
Vineno shrugs and dumps the remainder of the canister directly onto their face.
“Supplied the drinks.” He says finally, flashing a grin that shows off his fangs as he pats around his pockets for the matches.
