[ it's fine.

he almost wants to say "for now" but this really isn't the time. ]

Yeah. And we got a good outcome out of it, even if it was very on edge the whole time.

[ ... then he looks at her yaoi hand. ]

So. Stuck with that for a while, are you?

[shiftingwinds]

That seems to be the case.

[SIGHS HEAVILY.]

I'm of half a mind to see if Gluttony can fix it. The power seems to have come from them in the first place, right? Since it was given to those of us that were aligned with their sin.

[aubins]

...

[ hm. ]

I would not. Gluttony's interesting to talk to, but I'm not sure I want to do anything that would put me anywhere near being in debt to them.

[shiftingwinds]

...ahaha, did they say something strange to you, too?

[aubins]

You might need to narrow down the strange things, but... turns out trying to find out what they're not actually good at can lead to some interesting conversations.

[shiftingwinds]

Well, now I'm just curious. Is there anything they're not good at?

[aubins]

I might've caught them on a technicality, but I'm actually not sure.

[ ... ]

It's really annoying, actually.

[shiftingwinds]

[she chuckles]

Annoying? Because they make so many things look effortless?

[aubins]

More because no one is perfect at everything, but everything I suggest is just "oh yes I am really rather adept at that particular skill set". [ he may be pitching his voice a little more gluttony like.

sqx nearly died, but here they are. grumbling about gluttony. ]

[shiftingwinds]

[



sorry she's just bursting into giggles at yuri's gluttony impression.]

[aubins]

[ hey, he tried. ]

You know that's exactly what they're like.

[shiftingwinds]

Ask them to bring along one of their cats next time you talk. You'll see a completely different side of them.

[aubins]

Like the one that showed up in trial? How many of them do they have?

[shiftingwinds]

At least two, but it sounded like more, from what I heard. The one from trial is named Judas - the other I met is named Cain.

[aubins]

[ ... sighs. ]

Interesting names.

[shiftingwinds]

They certainly don't sound like any names I've heard of before.

[but, like, she's chinese, so.]

[aubins]

[ he's a femblem. ]

Yeah. Here, or back home. Wonder where they got them from.

[shiftingwinds]

Maybe that sort of name is common where they come from.

[aubins]

[ they are weird names, shi. ]

Maybe? Did they say they were pets from home...?

[shiftingwinds]

They didn't say that they were from home - just that they really liked them.

[aubins]

[ a cat fan.... ]

Somehow that's both fitting and surprising.

[shiftingwinds]

[she giggles]

It caught me by surprise! It was very gap moe.

[god i hate the fact that she knows this phrase, but also? i love it.]

[aubins]

... Did you tell them that to their face?

[ please god tell sebastian kuroshitsuji he's gap moe. ]

[shiftingwinds]

No, but I really wish I had.

[alas, it happened before she knew what gap moe was.]

[aubins]

...

You know what you must do. [ me, softly: hey remember sqx nearly died like a couple of in game hours ago? ]
