... good. Even if it's not always, and it's a work in process, I think you deserve it, Lucas. And I hope more than anything, that you think that you deserve that as well.

[ that he can have... good things, for himself, and hope to keep it. ]

I'd rather not limit your mobility unless you wish to go that far.

[ it might activate some trapped animal brain and scien doesn't want that either, but he'll give lucas another kiss anyway for even bringing it up ]

But there is the mixture I gave you before that weighs down your limbs so you can't exercise your full strength. It can be diluted so you aren't able to exert full force on me, for a temporary period.

[ i forgot scien made this for an actual reason and then when i realized i was like oh no ]

I would never take such a core piece of you... but if it's inconvenient, it can be temporarily subdued so you can accomplish your other wants.

[ like intimacy without fear ]

[ what about nadia in other timelines o: the way nehan was vibrating out his skin when they opted to protect their worlds without having decided to fight the cult yet or not. THE OTHER WORLDS!! OTHER TIMELINES!!!! ]

I haven't decided. Maybe I'll keep wandering and see where fate takes me. [ there's a very melancholic blip there, but he works past it. ] Seeing your sister again is the first order of business, I take it.
faithkept: (but even so i want to be here)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Unfortunately he won't because Scien has to go back to his own Lucas and this Lucas will refuse to give the memory bank upload to his Scien because he is an idiota who creates his own problems, but at least he will have friends to visit...]

...Thank you, Muelsyse. [The vibes are fond and warm... HE LOVES MUELSYSE SO MUCH!!! EVEN IF HE'S STILL CATHOLIC GUILTY!!] What about you? Are you intending to stay here or to go elsewhere?
faithkept: (by reeling in feelings of love)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
[HELPPP that was part of the reason why Lucas still wanted to fight the cult so bad... A BIG CHUNK OF IT WAS VIOLENCE BUT IT'S ALL VIOLENCE FOR NADIA IN THE END!!]

The first order of business is killing Ortie. [MORE FUCKING MURDER.] But I'll be fetching her from the hospital immediately after, yes.

[His head cants a little, though. The melancholic blip...]

There's nowhere you'd like to go?

[personal profile] rhine 2024-08-04 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
I need to go home, and figure out some things... I came here to get a cure for Oripathy, and that failed, so it's back to the drawing board.

[ bullshit terminal anime disease ]
faithkept: (a melody softly soaring)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
[There's a little pulse of concern at the suggestion because he's also thinking along those lines. WHAT IF IT ACTIVATES SOME TRAPPED ANIMAL BRAIN... He doesn't want to be violent anymore, he was violent all day, he's DONE BEING VIOLENT!!

NOT THIS THOUGH. There's still some unease in his vibes because that experience had just on a whole been absolutely miserable, and since it's the only one he has to refer to, his associative memory is not great.]


...Only for a temporary period? How long is temporary? Would you be able to gauge...?

[Partially for his own comfort and partially so he doesn't accidentally regain buff arms and kill Scien on the spot.]
egodist: (✧ i made a deal with the demons)

[personal profile] egodist 2024-08-04 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ ah, the unease is enough to get scien to press another kiss to lucas's temple, seeking to soothe more than anything else. ]

Only temporary. It would be relevant to dosage, and I can use estimates from last time to determine how long it'd last. You can give me a timeframe, and I'll run simulations to match your request as closely as possible.

[ again, just to give as much agency to lucas as possible in this situation ]

[YEAH IT'S THE SUPERBOWL NOW. NOOOOOOOOO, STOP SMILING. He's immediately fucking flustered even if it only shows a tad on his face.]

I see.

[Don't lead him directly into a misconception and then TEASE HIM FOR IT! You don't have to say it.]
faithkept: (say if i had a heart)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
[NOT THE ORIPATHY.]

Ah... [A little nod.] ...Well. I'm certain you got here through similar means, but perhaps having so many worlds to access now could help?
faithkept: (in water cool and cleansing)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
[He does unfortunately seem to relax a little because he is an affection sponge.]

Mm... Would a few hours be a workable time frame, then...?

[Not just for Scien, but because he wants to freely hold so many paws...]

[personal profile] rhine 2024-08-04 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
I think it's doable. If anything, I'm even more motivated now than ever.

[ it would be a shame, to leave here only to get beaten! ]
faithkept: (that there are roads left)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
[HELPPPPP HE'S SO FUNNY. Listen here. He's the best. Easiest bully target!! Hilarious weird little man.]

I won't miss you as much as I would have if I'd never have the chance to see you again, though. And surely that isn't the case, is it?
wolftonic: (a25)

[personal profile] wolftonic 2024-08-04 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ sometimes the cheapest answer the ronks give you is violence

they've talked about his ORTIE MURDER so at this point he just nods. go kill this guy, lucas. ]


I hope things will be kinder for her from hereon out.

[ kinder for all of them, really. he frowns thinly. he'd be cagier about this usually, but he assumes he won't see most of the people here again, so. ]

I haven't decided whether to return home or not. I wasn't intending to, but you've all forced me to readjust my plans some.
egodist: (✧ i'll even indulge in your selfishness)

[personal profile] egodist 2024-08-04 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
[ no they're all for scien. lucas will need a second dose i might not be joking

he nods and then reaches for his tablet again, shifting off of lucas for a second so he can prepare this medicine remotely. he lays next to him instead, curling one arm around him regardless ]


If that's what you wish.
faithkept: (all of my life all of my days)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[DON'T SAY I MIGHT NOT BE JOKING THIS IS A NIGHTMARE.

He will automatically roll into Scien's side, though, and curl up there.]


I'd rather be able to say my goodbyes without worrying about breaking anyone's bones...
faithkept: (is proof that i am still alive)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
[PLEASE DON'T LEAVE HERE ONLY TO GET BEATEN HE'S SO AFRAID THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO SOME OF THESE FUCKS and i aki am looking directly through the screen at you already badending one of your fuckin guys just letting the wholeass grune DIE and NO ONE KNEW.]

That's good, then... I wish you only the best of success. Will you be visiting any of us, do you think? Once you've progressed in your work?
egodist: (✧ there's nothing real)

[personal profile] egodist 2024-08-04 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ i might not be.... but scien will set that up to run, letting a few simulations and projections run on the screen to figure out what combination would allow them to get a medicine that most closely matches lucas's request. but he'll turn his head to press another kiss to lucas's forehead ]

You picked up another gaggle of ducklings here...
faithkept: (how would i find it)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
[He does love cheap violence... But thanks for supporting his Ortie murder! He just offers a little smile in response.]

Thank you.

[He hopes so TOO his NADIA and her FUCKING SUFFERING!!!!!! My god.]

We've forced you to readjust your plans in a way that makes you more likely to return...?
faithkept: (hunting your soreness down)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know that I'd call them ducklings...

[They're all very cute though........ Like ducklings... LIL LAMBS... OOOOH he loves all of the people he's come to care for here. He turns his head a little, pressing his lips to Scien's cheek (face) before tucking his head back down, watching all this science bullshit happen on the screen.]
wolftonic: (fa41)

[personal profile] wolftonic 2024-08-04 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ he really just thinks that murder is not healthy for lucas for a lot of reasons but he is not going to dissuade him from what he's got his mind set on... besides, this guy fucking sucks. ]

I wasn't going to go home, no. But the god you all forced into existence was too weak to grant a very powerful wish.

[ they still count as cultists, so they would've gotten a better wish if the ritual had gone not so shittily. ]

I've considered spending mine on Muelsyse somehow now, since her world is in the most dire straits.

[ hmmm he feels a small uptick in fondness when lucas kisses his cheek. very cute of him.

the heart is such an odd thing. but science bullshit happens, and scien watches the simulator run the course of a few hours in a matter of seconds. he still leans his head against lucas's

but now he'll tease: ]


Troublemakers? Headaches?
faithkept: (say if i had a heart)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
[It's fine it's fine it's fine just one more as a treat to someone who deserves it...]

Ah... [There's like, the tiniest blip of guilt, but only a tiny bit, because fuck this god and also a cult that would try to kill 40 randomass people for it.]

Would she be happy if you did that?
faithkept: (and let the sun)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-08-04 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
[GET THAT FONDNESS OUT OF HERE.]

Don't be cruel. They're certainly more ducklings than headaches.

[What about troublemakers...]
egodist: (✧ take my hand)

[personal profile] egodist 2024-08-04 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ no.... scien gets so enamored what happens to this guy ]

A bundle of rambunctious kittens.

[ c. compromise? ]
