[ablazement]

Really?

[mygod]

[ straightens up and frowns. almost pouts ]

I thought I had it.

[ THEY REALLY DIDN'T ]

[ablazement]

[that was a solid 5 on your performance check, famine]

You've got it with the -- [she puts her hand up over her face like she's pretending to be shy] -- but less with the talking.

[mygod]

Hmmm.

I suppose I don't know many shy or awkward people.

[ they don't know many people ]

[ablazement]

I'm neither, so I'm not helping, I'm sure.

The whole mean thing probably will put off a few, if you really want to be left alone.

[mygod]

I do, but you're all clearly very insistent despite it...

[ they shake their head ]

I'm no match for extroverts.

[ablazement]

We're an awful bunch.

[re: extroverts, she says this so cheerfully.]

I'm mostly just curious. Bunch of people in masks come tell us that we're about to be sacrificed, who wouldn't be interested in what's going on there?

What's with the masks, anyway? Cult uniform?

[mygod]

[ nods in agreement... extroverts are truly the worst (no)

as for the question, ]

Pestilence likes dress up. Maybe it's one of their bonding activities?

[ablazement]

So they made you dress up with the horns and such?

[cultural appropriation (no)]

[mygod]

There are worse hobbies.

[ it's just cosplay that is apparently slightly problematic sorry karlach ]

[ablazement]

[honestly the cult kidnapping her to feed her to a god is more problematic than the horns so they're fine]

Oh, definitely. How many people have asked to see your face?

[mygod]

None so far. [ which they sound pleased about ]

You're all quite overly familiar, but not to that extent somehow.

[ablazement]

Fuck, that means I can't ruin the streak.

[this is teasing, she doesn't really care if they show their face or not.]

[mygod]

It's true, you can't. That'd be far too bold.

[ unclear if joking this time. leave them to their mysteries..... ]

In general, I don't respect most cult practices but I do think that the need for privacy is a fairly understandable one.

[ no they just feel comfy not being perceived ]

[ablazement]

I get that. Hardly got any of it before, so I'm not going to steal it from you.

[swishy tail.]

Far too bold's a funny statement to apply to me, though.

[mygod]

It wasn't an invitation...

[ablazement]

Didn't think it was! I'm not going to trod on your privacy feet. Don't worry.

[but again they will be friends she is relentless]

[mygod]

I wouldn't call it a worry.

[ but they suppose they are still here, conversing ]

Are you making these connections throughout the camp? Have you heard anything funny about people?

[ give them the gossip they are too lazy to get themselves ]

[ablazement]

[she is surprised and delighted they're still here, honestly.]

I've talked to a lot of people, yeah. [thinks about it...] Cloud fell through an entire roof and dropped down right in front of Aerith and that's how they met?

[she thinks that's pretty funny]

[mygod]

[ laughs ]

Landed on his face in front of the girl he likes? Embarrassing.

[ i want to clarify that famine has never met cloud or aerith they are making a wildly sweeping assumption ]

[ablazement]

[HELP it's okay she's a shipper so she just takes this as truth.]

Right? I'd be mortified. But I get the sense she likes when guys are a bit lame. [cloud does not deserve this dunking]

[mygod]

...? Why?

[ is that a type? is that a type? aerith your taste ]

[ablazement]

I think - Shadowheart said this to me once, it's... I can fix him?

[mygod]

... Sounds like having a bit too much time on your hands...

[ablazement]

No joke! Haven't got the time to fix a man, he can fix himself. With help, of course, but - oh, you know.

[it is likely they do not]
