"It is."
She gently undoes the snap holding it in place and reveals a neat revolver
, and while she handles it with familiarity she seemed to be extra-careful with it.
"If they were even human. I'd rather not think about it too much."
[forum cryptid: it/it's](@Sarah) Nyaru: Oh, is that so?~ I thought you're here to delve head-deep for answers. And so you know - the answer is that the Artifact was devised by humans, by their wretched minds and with the intended purpose to punish sinners. If only they'd know how horribly right it will go... After all, they only needed a single nudge from me.
"Thank you, Roy, Miss Dunkenstahl. I make it a point to keep it in good condition. It's been in my family for years. My mother granted it to me when I joined the corporation."
"So that's why you're so interested. If you had your own personal hand in the matter, why didn't you just say it? You strung me along just so you could be absolutely superior when you talked to me? hey, news flash, asshole; no matter how great and powerful you are, there's still such a thing as common courtesy, fuckface."
[forum cryptid: it/it's](@Sarah) Nyaru: My hand? Wrong. Those to carry the burden of guilt are the inventors, the curious ignorant explorers that couldn't abstain from peeking at things they don't understand, you yourself who couldn't abstain from reaching power you didn't understand and don't understand to this day! And you think that I of all entities high and low give a damn about courtesy? Nyahaha! Hei! Aa-shanta 'nygh! I'd forgo your case as one of the byproducts that are always left broken when my playtime's over, but well, you're so conveniently around. And you will fare well with secrets I will unveil to you, unlock your hidden potential there. But why do I have to be so generous as to help you step over it and become stronger? Of course, because there's a way for me to get some kicks while doing it, by letting a single human suffer and burst in helpless fury while being reminded of the past that she has endured and that won't let her go away peacefully. There's always a price for help, and yours now is abysmally small.

"Yes. She handed it down to me, and it was handed down from her own mother. It's not the most up-to-date weapon, but it has its perks."
Sarah laughed, despite herself. Still chuckling to herself, she spoke.
"So you don't even care about me, you just want entertainment. Your desire to teach me what I've become is simply for your own shits and giggles? Hell no. You had your chance but this passive-aggressive dickery isn't going to fly. I don't need you to tell me who I am, or what I've become. I'll figure that shit out on my own, thank you very much. See you around, catty. You've had your last meow with me."
She stands up, makes the universal sign language symbol for "go and fornicate with thyself", and walks out.
[forum cryptid: it/it's]Nyaru didn't move as Sarah has left, tracing her with his gaze, malicious grin on his lips. And once Sarah has felt for once that the oppressive static has started to dissipate in her head, an image, clear as day, has flashed in her mind. Arthur's face, stern and unforgiving as it appeared before Sarah at the white chamber.
