[ yuri is sticking the umbrella in his own hair. at least douman's getting some alcohol in him now. ]
So you're taking the "remain silent until whatever this wears off" plan as seriously as possible then. How're you going to know if you're back to normal if you're not talking though?
But you seem to have a more realistic look on it than others, that's all. People deep in religion wouldn't actually call themselves "intense". But it doesn't mean you don't believe at all.
Yet, religion is still a big part of ... well, multiple worlds I'm assuming. People like the concept of higher powers, or some form of spiritual guidance, I guess.

get a glass. pour douman some drink, drop a lil' umbrella in the glass for flair, and then push it over to him. ]
no subject
[This drinks looks all fine and good, but...]
[Douman plucks the umbrella out of the drink and gestures to it, frowning, mouthing the word "UMBRELLA????"].
no subject
[ he's got another one in his hands and is twirling it idly. how many of these things are there? ]
no subject
[Douman looks dubious, but after a moment, takes a drink.]
[Oh. That's nice and sweet. They seem to like it!]

[Douman just. Closes their eyes. SO TIRED OF CURSING, THANKS]

I hear saying what you really think can be quite freeing from time to time. Don't worry about it.
no subject
[And a pause.]
It is not in my nature to be like this.
no subject
[ hm. ]
no subject
I am but a humble priest, after all.
no subject
[ he says
you know. after douman has had a drink, but it's fine. ]
no subject
Ha! Yuri, I am in a place that rewards indulgence. Do you believe mere alcohol would offend my sensibilities?
no subject
[ speaking of he is going to take one of these really cute bottles, specifically the one that says Long Island, and pour himself a drink as well. ]
no subject
Ahaha. You sound like you know some.
no subject
[ he shrugs, and sips his own drink, nose wrinkling slightly at the taste. ]
It's a combination that's served them well.
no subject
[A curious look.]
I have never heard of such a church. You sound like one who isn't such a faithful follower.
no subject
[ he shrugs. ] I have my own ways to believe, and my own things to be doing without joining a priesthood because there's no other option.
no subject
[And a wide smile.]

What works for some people doesn't work for others, ultimately.
no subject
What do you find comfort in, then, Yuri?
no subject
[ ... ]
What about you? You're a priest, but a priest of what?
no subject
[A slight smirk.]
I am a faithful follower of Buddha. He is no god, however. He is the Enlightened One who was able to escape the cycle of birth and rebirth.
no subject
[ hm. ]
... Now that's something I don't recognise. Same as you, you said you didn't recognise the name Seiros, right?
no subject
[They agree, either way.]
Yes. Of course, we hail from different worlds. I'm hardly surprised.
