Folkmore takes some getting used to.

[His time in Folkmore has easily been the longest Vergil has stayed in any one place. Hunted as he was in his youth given his refusal to hide as Dante had, it never really crossed Vergil's mind to stay anywhere. Not until Nero's mother, and even then...]

You'll find the majority of people here to be...well-meaning. [He hesitates to apply the label and does so with a mild amount of barely disguised disdain because, frankly, he's skeptical of the overwhelming amount of altruism that seems to make up the majority of the Star Children. They present themselves as such, but their presentation does not always align with the experience of them. Vergil finds most of the other Star Children to be nosy and intrusive. Their need to help and intervene leads them to ignore any expressed disinterest, and they rarely accept when someone wishes to be left alone. But whether or not that aligns with her temperament, she's likely better equipped to manage it than Vergil is from the looks of things. At least managing it in a way that most would consider kind.] And the fox spirit does as a fox spirit will. When the mood strikes her, she plays her games with everyone here. Sometimes, you've a choice in your participation in them. Other times, you do not. It all depends on her whims.

[Which Vergil does not like. Thirteen has done a few things against Vergil's will as of late that have left a bitter taste in Vergil's mouth and a growing dislike of the fox spirit on top of what he perceives to be incompetence. But he maintains his opinions of their odd host to himself rather than sharing them with Oleandra. She didn't ask, and she'll likely form her own opinions soon enough once enough repairs have been made to the realm and Folkmore is restored completely.]
