BloodyCrystal: Number three, my first real "evil-doer" introspection (I don't really count the one for my Xiaolin Showdown drabble collection, Me, Myself, and I.


Taint
Sin was such a decidedly beautiful thing, he mused, watching Kikyou in Kanna's mirror. He didn't love her, and yet he found her to be beautiful. It must have been the corruption that he had originally caused to fester in her heart. But, although he had begun the taint, she had been the one to allow its continued growth.

He understood the truth of sin only too well. If one did not choose the corruption, then it wasn't true corruption, which he had chosen while still human. It simply made watching the tainting of others more enjoyable.

Listening to people claim they were pure, while he watched them choose to taint themselves further, was delicious. He did so enjoy helping the corruption, but it was far more entertaining watching it occur while friends and family watched. Such passionate drama!

Sin was addictive, and he loved watching others learn to crave.
