[ HELP NOT THE REMINDER OF THE DEAD ]

Don't tell me you don't do anything...

[faithkept]

[SWEET AVENTURINE........ ASKED FOR HAIR TIPS AND IMMEDIATELY FUCKING BLEW UP!!!!!]

Not in particular... I'll use chamomile oil when it's available, but other than that, I just wash it regularly?

[He is so unfair.]

[mygod]

[ They cover their mouth. ]

You're terrible.

[faithkept]

Why...

[DON'T JUST ASK HIM THESE QUESTIONS AND THEN CALL HIM TERRIBLEEEEE.]

[mygod]

It's so much work to take care of long hair, Lucas...

[ YOU MONSTER... ]

[faithkept]

Well, I do understand that... It gets tangled very easily and it's difficult to clean when it gets overly-dirty.

[Imagine getting dirt caked in hair like this. Or blood.]

[mygod]

[ stares at how hard it is to clean here. ]

Right?! If it's windy out, then it's over.

[faithkept]

[AND YET HIS HAIR IS IN SUCH DECENT CONDITION.]

Wind at the shoreline is even worse... [Salt water in the air........] I wouldn't be able to leave my hair loose outside, I think.

[mygod]

Or when it's really hot out... having all that hair on your neck is so sweaty...

[ Horrific? Lucas can never cosplay either. ]

[faithkept]

[IMAGINE TRYING TO PUT THIS MUCH HAIR UNDER A WIG.]

Fortunately, it doesn't tend to get overly-hot where I live... [Ah temperate island climates.] But I do still understand. Perhaps in the end, it's better not to have it?

[CHOPS HIS HAIR OFF.]

[mygod]

[ There's a long pause. ]

Bald...?

[faithkept]

[An equally long pause.]

...Perhaps not so extreme.

[mygod]

Ah.

A bob.

[faithkept]

A what?

[Is this because he's from an 1800s island or because he is an idiot man.]

[mygod]

Well.. if your hair was up to...

[ They gesture towards their chin area. ]

Like this! And sort of curled inwards a bit.

[faithkept]

Oh! [THAT'S CERES!!!! He immediately looks fond.] Is that what you call it? It's a very cute style.

[mygod]

Yeah! You must really like it.

[ THIS HAIRSTYLE..... ]

[faithkept]

[YEAH HE LOVES THIS HAIRSTYLE........]

I don't think that it would suit me very well, even so, so I suppose I'll just keep mine as it is.

[mygod]

Well, that's fine, too! It would be a shame if you cut it, yours is really nice.

[ shakes in jealousy ]

[faithkept]

[DON'T BE JEALOUS... YOU CAN STILL COSPLAY PESTILENCE.......]

Thank you... [He guesses. He only spends time thinking about his hair when it's being an inconvenience.] —In any case, is there anything else that I can do, then?

[mygod]

Oh.

[ damn don't go back to the other topic. ]

No, I think this was fine enough. Just chatting helps.

[faithkept]

[HE'S RUNNING FROM HAIR AND BACK INTO THE FOREST FIRE.]

Ah... If you say so. [A little nod, since a few of the others he's talked to tonight have said essentially the same thing.] Then, would you like to just chat for a bit longer? I don't want to hold your time hostage for too long if you'll be working to field a lot of questions tonight.

[mygod]

I expect to be busy no matter what, so I don't mind either way! It's kind of to be expected at this point.

But is everything good with you?

[ lucas.... ]

[faithkept]

[WELL, HE'S OKAY NOW BUT HE'LL BE LESS OKAY LATER.]

Just shoo me away when you'd like, alright? [As for the question, with a small but warm smile:] It's a difficult time for all of us, but I'm doing well enough. Thank you for asking.

[mygod]

[ LUCAAAAAS ]

Well, it'll be a shame to not ask the person who's busy checking in on everyone else, too! You seem like the type to hold all your problems on the inside.
