Ah... I see. [NEHAN!!!!!!] Well, that does make sense. I can report back to you once I've learned a little more about them, then? I only know what we have to do to fetch them.

[He'll be less fine when he finds out she's an underwear seeker........

There's a little bit of a pause as he weighs how he wants to frame this. THE BEST WAY TO SAY SOMETHING IN ORDER TO NOT WORRY SOMEONE WHEN EVERYTHING YOU CAN SAY WOULD BE WORRYING. Saying he's fine would just be such an obvious lie, so instead he goes with:]


I will be. [YEAH!!] It's a bit difficult, but I'm very good at overcoming trials. [STOP SAYING THAT.] Thank you for asking, though. I appreciate it.
faithkept: (tipping cup inverted crown)

[Stop sniffing out his tactics he's just a little guy....... A little guy who's perhaps taking a bit of advantage of the fact that there's only so much Famine War and Pestilence can do from facetime in the hole...

Anyway yeah! He'd have also preferred his final trial to be his actual final trial, but living and dying are both miseries so this may as well happen.]


...Thank you for your kindness. [But maybe all of his trials are just PENANCE for being a terrible evil person anyway, so it all works out or something.] It isn't something that I mind, though.

[YOU REALLY FUCKING GOODBYE GO'D ME!!!!!!!! BLASTS YOU

Anyway he looks appropriately apologetic this time because he's no longer cursed all to hell.]


Ah, I'm sorry... Is there no way of changing this back to voices only? That was less of an imposition, wasn't it?
faithkept: (say if i had a heart)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-07-08 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[WHAT THE HELL I DIDN'T EVEN BULLY YOU!!!!! except in chat today]

My apologies... I do wish there was a better way to warn you. [Lucas sitting here like damn the other two aren't so badly spooked what's happening in the good house of War.] How often are you called on...?
faithkept: (hunting your soreness down)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-07-08 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
[IS PENANCE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE BAD!!!!!

He will... try for a smile! It's a little reserved, but he pulls it off quite well, all things considered. He wonders if this is how other people feel when he tries to gently fuss.]


The trials could be worse. [He could accidentally set the hospital on fire with his Catholic Guilt next Monday again! He'd probably deserve it!!] So I feel I have nothing to complain about. I would rather you not be concerned.

[STOP WORRYING ABOUT HIM HE'S FINE HE AND HIS 50 TRIALS ARE FINE.]
faithkept: (so they may have a chance)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-07-08 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
[WHO WOULD DO THIS TO ANNA..........]

Oh. [They must not be very used to it, he sees.] Well... Does that make the sudden calls easier for you to manage, or more difficult?

[ i wrote 5 hours of rectangle tags yesterday BE NICE TO ME

anyway no, unfortunately for akis, nehan mixes the best drugs in his universe, so he does not die instantly. the relief doesn't take long to kick in, gentle. ]


Why, so you can keep being miserable?
faithkept: (and it grieves and fears the end)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-07-08 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
[I GUESS..........

Tch. So he'll die slowly instead. This is fine, though... Goodbye pain. He's a little relieved about it because he's not a masochist despite his Catholic Guilt. In fact, his tendency to look for escapes from pain gets him into a lot of messes.]


It's not a matter of misery.

[He will just sit here trying not to shatter this vial in his hand by holding it back out to Nehan instead. SCIEN BROFIISE. Unlike his usual air of morose Catholicism, there's something a bit sharp.]
faithkept: (they grasp me tight)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-07-08 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
[You would be FRIENDS with a SERIAL KILLER?? He's touched... and also harmed because there's no winning with Catholic guilt.]

... [TRYING VALIANTLY TO NOT GET HIS CATHOLIC GUILT ON EVERYTHING.] Thank you... Though I feel I haven't been a very good friend to you.

[OR ANYONE ELSE. ON ACCOUNT OF THE FACT THAT HE'S BEEN DYING AND EXPLODING PEOPLE AND HE CAN'T HELP ANYONE ELSE WHEN THEY'RE ALL ASKING HIM HOW THEY CAN HELP HIM.]

[IM JUST A LIL GUY]

Then it would be better if more people were to contact you more often...?

[To get used to it!]

[ he's not going to give an addict anything habit-forming, so this should be fine. unless it's just a slow-acting poison and he dies in five tags. ]

So is it resentment?
faithkept: (and her legs)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-07-08 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
[you wouldn't be so kind to me 😒

Anyway, what it IS is a complex MESS that he really needs months or frankly years to fully chew through, and he's doing his best with what little he has but what it means is he's stuck with a massive tangle he has to pick through carefully.

The sharpness seems to fade after a second or two, and he glances down at his lap. A little more quietly:]


...I don't know. It feels like hatred.

That would be an interesting perspective.

If I thought my soul was going to be judged. But did we not already talk about the afterlife?

[ where scien thinks that nothing at all comes after... and if something did, he'd prefer if all souls were just given a pass? ]
faithkept: (to reveal the brightest sky)

[personal profile] faithkept 2024-07-08 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
I can judge you without judging your soul!

[WELL. HE'S NOT WRONG. HE WASN'T EVEN TALKING ABOUT HEAVENLY JUDGEMENT THIS TIME like mostly kinda, everything is always a tiny bit about heavenly judgment with him.]

But we did have quite an insightful discussion, didn't we?
