why don't you try speaking in words instead of your damn dirty lies?!

[yinception]

Twice?! Have you considered killing him harder?

[Wuxian can't really complain, having died once himself, but, you know. Some people might say Klaus did a poor job at killing his dear papa, there.]

You? You're full of yourself [kettle, meet pot] but that's not a crime, let alone a monstrous one.

[illtemper]

Well. [ Klaus shrugs, and smiles. ] In all fairness, you don't know me very well.

As for my father, you'd be surprised how resilient the members of my family are. Resurrections are strangely common. Granted, they're not the only people I know who've escaped death, but it is something of a pattern.

[yinception]

[Wuxian shrugs in reply. Fair enough.]

Resurrections sure are common. At home, I'm sure I was the only one, but among Otherworlders, such magic seems a dime a dozen.

[illtemper]

A curious thing to have in common.

[ He narrows his eyes. Your turn, buddy. ]

When did it happen to you?

[yinception]

A while before coming here. A month or two?

Though technically it was a body sacrifice, rather than a resurrection.

[illtemper]

Meaning that another life was exchanged for yours?

[yinception]

That it was.

His choice! Not mine.

[illtemper]

Well, that makes you a lucky man! You must have inspired some loyalty in him. Close friend?

[yinception]

Never met him!

It was 16 years after I'd died, but somehow I still had quite a reputation.

[illtemper]

Ah! So a devoted follower. Curious. A reputation for what?

[yinception]

He wanted his tormentors dead. Does that answer your question?

[illtemper]

Dying himself hardly seems like the most effective means of achieving revenge. It's not exactly a victory.

But his general foolishness aside: you're an assassin?

[yinception]

It's not the method I would have chosen, either, but to each his own.

[And honestly? Even disregarding the details, it spoke of how terribly Mo Xuanyu had suffered, that he'd go through such extreme measures to put an end to that suffering. Ending one's life was not so hard. In a twisted way, Wuxian could respect that Xuanyu hadn't wanted to let his tormentors live on after him.]

Nothing as subtle as that. But if you care to believe the stories, I'm single-handedly responsible for hundreds upon thousands of death, in addition to being a terrible person steeped in dark magic.
