shiftingwinds | [7rings] catchall for luca

It... sounded like she said what she needed to say?

[and did what she felt the need to do.]

...if she changes her mind and there's more she wants to say to me, she can tell me any time.

I'm sure she will if she feels the need, she's always been quite vocal.

...if you don't mind my asking? Why did you kill her in the first place? You don't seem like the type who would kill just because.

...I was told that what had happened to Nathan was going to happen to her, too. And that it was too late to prevent it by helping her indulge.

They also said that if that happened twice, it would be... worse... for the group at large.

[please understand how fucking funny it is to me that eleanor of all characters got trolley problem'd.]

[I am in TEARS]

...ah. We should have had the indulgence chart among the living instead of the dead, and much sooner it seems.

But that is understandable. I thought it strange for you to murder someone 'just because', so there had to be a good reason for it.

Reason or not, I still killed her.

[so! there's that.]

...I'm just glad she was able to come back.

Mmm. It really is a miracle, that all of us came back.

I suspect Kaz and Ming Yi will have quite a bit of yelling to do first though.

Right. We just need to pull off another, now, to deal with the... furby. But there's already been one... what's one more, right?

[the fact that "furby" has been added to her vocabulary is one of the most cursed things about this game.]

...I didn't know what he did until today.

[but then, he didn't know what she did until today either! so although it stings a little that he didn't tell her, she can recognize it's pretty stupid for it to.]

...I thought you didn't.

[That statement is inaccurate. His real thought is "I had hoped you didn't."]

Well, as long as the air has been cleared between everyone, we should be able to cooperate long enough to defeat that...furby...and get out of here. But it might be for the best that everyone goes their separate ways after, before fights can break out.

[she sighs]

...you're probably right about that.

[she's been keeping her distance after talking with eleanor to avoid saying or doing something that would cause a fight, since. well! she can be pretty thoughtless sometimes, without meaning to. so she gets it.]

[He hears that sigh, and he's going to step in a bit closer to nudge her with his elbow.]

Hey. Want to see something?

[she looks up at that]

See something...?

[He reaches up, grabs the brim of his I L*VE HELL hat, and pulls it off.

As soon as the hat is off, his hair springs right up and starts waving around like seaweed.]

[

she looks torn between surprise and laughter.]

How...?

Edited (WAIT NO PREHENSILE HAIR IS A LUST THING SHE JUST DIDN'T SEE ANY LIVING LUSTS THIS WEEK) 2021-04-02 15:14 (UTC)

I think I would have preferred pink eyes, honestly. But this isn't so bad, no? Lust must be favoring me, if I only ended up with hair like this.

Ahaha, maybe!

[...]

Most of my changes are hidden under my clothes. [her robes cover a lot! though you can kind of see an eye peeking out from under the hem over her sleeve, and her fingers are longer than they should be.] It's... definitely something.

[her regular eyes pick that exact moment to start glowing green because i think it's funny]

[The GLOWING

Luca is so curious now.]

What is it like, to see out of multiple eyes at the same time? It's not disorienting, is it?

I can't really say...? They're not really able to see anything most of the time.

[given

her outfit choice]

It's probably for the best, it wouldn't do to get used to something only to have it be gone by the start of the next week.

Well, you're certainly not wrong about that.

[though

hopefully a lot of things will be gone by the start of next week! ...all of them included! goodbye, indulgence center.]

[Goodbye indulgence center! Goodbye long furby!]

Though I suppose if you really liked the extra eyes you could just make yourself have them once you get your godly powers back, hmm?

Ah... maybe, but I don't think I'll have those for very long once we leave here.

Probably not, but if you're a god can't you make yourself look like however you want to look?

...no - I mean, I don't think I'll have my godly powers for very long.

...Gods can lose their powers?

Mmhm. When people stop believing in them, or if they fail to overcome a Heavenly Calamity...

Or if they weren't meant to become gods in the first place. [she shrugs] I'm the last category, as it turns out.
