I wonder that too. It's too bad we can't test it.

[Luca sounds honestly bummed now, he really wants to try it.]

[shiftingwinds]

Well, I guess that means we'll just have to remember to test it once we're done here. They'll have to give those back to us when we return home, right?

[or she can just pop in to visit... clearly there's something connecting their worlds, if they could both be here. even if it's just this place. it's fine to jump from her world to here to his.

will that be how it works? she doesn't know, but there's no reason to think it won't at this point.]

[notaccurate]

[Luca feels like a god can do whatever they want, so.]

We do, yes. I'd love to see how your powers can affect the science of my world. I'm also curious to see what you look like as a man.

[There's no denying how pretty SQX is, and Luca wants to see if he's attracted to that beauty if SQX is in a male form. He's still figuring out this gender stuff, he'll learn.]

[shiftingwinds]

Ahaha, well - perhaps I'll get to show you--

[or he can just see it right now! luca gets an extra memory featuring her male form, as a treat.]

...oh, I suppose that would do the trick.

[notaccurate]

[Luca like 'oh no she's handsome'.]

...ah.

Truly, you are lovely no matter how you look.

[shiftingwinds]

[that obviously pleases her. she has such an ego, please stop feeding it, it's exhausting.]

Why, thank you!

[notaccurate]

[He will keep feeding that ego, thanks.]

It's strange, though. Even if that form looks to be male, I still see you as a woman in my mind. I guess your preference lingers even if your body changes?

[shiftingwinds]

Hmm, it might! [she shrugs] I'm still me either way, so male or female, it really doesn't matter much to me. That form is the form I was born into, though...

[she's just, well. she's female in this form. "lady wind master," "lord wind master," she answers to either of them.]

But I do really like this one.

[notaccurate]

Admittedly I'm still learning about what gender can really be. I thought it was just "male" or "female" and that was it.

[shiftingwinds]

[she pats his shoulder]

If it helps, even other gods have some trouble accepting it. Even though they can do the same thing I can! You're doing great.

[notaccurate]

I'm sure I'll get it eventually.

...I was a bit rude to Nathan before, and I think it was my ignorance on the topic that drove my rudeness.

[Except Nathan is fukken dead now so he can't apologize whups.]

[shiftingwinds]

[she'd tell him that at least he can do better next time... but...

r.i.p. nathan]

Well... ignorance can be corrected. It's much better than rudeness that comes from malice, after all.

[notaccurate]

Mmm, true.

[At least he's only been malicious towards a couple people so far?]

...perhaps I should tone back the intentional rudeness too.

[shiftingwinds]

Well, there are some people it's worth being rude to.

[


shi qingxuan? please? your grudges?]

[notaccurate]

Dare I ask?

[shiftingwinds]

Ahaha, not here! Well, mostly. Just in general.

[notaccurate]

It still sounds like you have someone in mind.

[shiftingwinds]

...someone I know from home that I don't get along with. He's the worst, he's really the worst!

[notaccurate]

Ah. So even gods can hold grudges.

[shiftingwinds]

Ahaha, does that surprise you?

[notaccurate]

A little. Where I'm from, we're taught that any god or gods that exist are...hmm. Well. 'Above it all'? They're some sort of higher power that doesn't have the trappings of a mortal life. But then again, I've also never met a god in my world. They might not exist there.

[shiftingwinds]

Weeeell... we're supposed to be. There are a lot of legends like that about us, too.

[she chuckles]

...but we're people as well as gods, and we were all human once. It might have been centuries since we were mortal, and we may get a little too used to how things are in the heavens - but some things just don't fade.

[notaccurate]

Ah. I suppose it does change things, if you were all mortal once.

That's still strange to think of, that there is no 'higher being' and you all just got believed into godly power.

[shiftingwinds]

Hmm... I never thought about it as strange, but... that's just always been how it was. I guess it'd be strange if you grew up believing something else, though!

[notaccurate]

Mmm. I don't believe anything I can't see for myself, honestly. If a system of deities was based around actual people who can show up and act, then I could believe that. But not some "just have faith in a higher power" nonsense.
