The people really were rather boring, and once more the prospect of a Shadow Creeper on the train floated into his mind, but he dismissed the idea when he thought of just how pathetic this thing was already. A Shadow Creeper on it might very well derail it or something, and then where would they be? Walking, probably, and there was no way Kadaj wanted to risk that. Even if it was incredibly slow, this was the fastest way to Mother...
His expression darkened slightly at Yazoo's words, and he laughed derisively, the sound cutting off just as abruptly as it had begun. "Of course they don't appreciate hard work anymore. They can't possibly understand what it's like to go through all that, can they, not with their petty little minds. Even something as simple as this escapes them...." He looked around at them all contemptuously, even though he addressed his sibling as though they were incapable of understanding him.
In a slightly calmer tone, he went on. "You would think that something of the magnitude of all that Mother has done for us wouldn't escape their notice then, but they can't even properly identify that, now can they? From the beginning they rejected her, and now... now, before they can even begin to realize their mistake, they will pay for it."
His unwilling audience seemed to cringe at that, and Kadaj felt some of his anger become amusement. He smiled very slowly at them, watching as they shrank back even further as his eyes passed over each of them in turn. Really, it hadn't even been them that the Shadow Creeper had been sent after. They seemed to be fitting in to the cliche cowed crowd role entirely too easily...
He became distracted again at Yazoo's words, turning back to look at him with a slightly more genuine smile. "We could throw some out while the train is still moving, maybe~? And they get to choose who goes first." He turned back to smile at them all again, unable to stop a small giggle. This was going to be fun~
