//Yo! So, because of my health issues, I've had to come to the decision that attempting to run as many blogs as I currently do is just not going to work. I once again abandoned this blog because I fell ill for the last few days and honestly that's just annoying to me, you and the muses. SO - my Harbringers shall be moving over to @diverse-hearts It's a little cramped over there I know, but I feel this needs to be done if I want to write these muses more often - so I understand if you may be a little disappointed by this news, but I'm falling apart so yey? Anyways, Stella is being the Queen she always is and helping me update my theme to reflect the move. I'll probs start slowly moving some things to canon over the following week. I will try and continue things - if you defo wish for a thread to be continued thou just poke me?

Paranoid Sentences, Vol. 2

(Sentences for paranoid muses and those interacting with them. Adjust phrasing where needed)

"Can you hear how paranoid you sound?"

"Why did you betray me?"

"Is there anything you're not telling me?"

"Is that your real name?"

"Whose idea was this? Who sent you?"

"What else did you lie about?"

"Why were you guys talking in secrets?"

"You don't believe a word I'm saying, do you?"

"Sometimes I think that I cannot trust anyone but myself... And you."

"Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that nobody's out to get you."

"Why can't you tell me what you're thinking?"

"You're asking me to trust you? After you lied to me for all these years?"

"I don't trust any of them. Do you?"

"Can't you see? Someone is trying to frame me!"

"Can I ask you a question? Are you following me?"

"Tell me the truth; did you set me up to fail?"

"Why did you ask me if something was wrong when I came in?"

"Do you know how many cover stories they come up with on a daily basis?"

"You think I'm a snitch?"

"What did I do to make you think you can't trust me?"

"I'm going to go against every instinct I have and tell you the truth."

"I believe you - this time."

"You claim your loyalty lies with me, yet your behaviour says otherwise."

"You know something. Don't lie; you're not good at it."

"Tell me about it and don't lie, or I'll know."

"Look at the ease with which you lie."

"I'll go along with your plans, but I want you to admit the truth."

"I don't trust anyone until they've earned it."

"In a lot of ways, you're the only person I can trust."

"This is venturing into the paranoid. I can't allow you to pull anyone else into your delusion."

"We can trust no one."

"There is something going on with you!"

"Treachery is everywhere."

"Everytime you come here, you shower me with false pity that causes my skin to crawl". He growled out the words as Aether appeared below the tree he'd been sitting in, as though the traveller knew quite well just where he'd been choosing to hide out. He must be losing his touch - it seemed these days as though anyone could find him if they looked long enough. Surely Nahida wasn't helping them all, right? Sighing, he floated down to land just before them, one hand resting on the tip of his hat, "What do you need traveller? Surely you didn't travel all this way because you missed me?", he teased.

"Your sister will be fine", unless she'd been captured or foolish enough to wonder into the desert on her own, but he decided to keep that thought to himself, leading Miran through the forest and back towards the nearest village, "The forest will look out for her - it tends to make sure that lost children find their way back home". Sure, a part of him was very tempted to lecture her about allowing such a small child out from her sights for long enough for them to vanish in a place as dangerous as the rain forest could be - but he wished to avoid the nagging he'd receive if word of such a lecture was to get back to Nahida. "This your first time to Sumeru?".

"Windblume should be happening soon, right?". He glanced up from the flower crown he'd been working on with Strelitzia's help, the wind having blown a few dandelion seeds in their direction, making him think on the upcoming festival.

Honestly, it seemed as though Mondstadt thought on anything and everything to have a festival about - that might be why they sold as much wine as they seemed to...but he actually rather enjoyed it too. The children always seemed to have some event to look forward to. "We somewhat missed the last celebrations - so I was wondering if you'd like to go. What do you say?".

"You really are a dumb little girl". He rubbed at his head slightly, walking over to give a kick against the map maker's side, "Oi - there's no time for sleeping. Hello? Anyone in there?". He frowned, hands on his hips as he gave a few more sharp kicks to the side of her ribs, "...did you die in your sleep?". Nah, she was still alive, he could see her chest rising and falling - but he didn't have the time nor patience to keep waiting around like this. "Honestly, if you're going to be this useless I may as well just get rid of you here and now".

Why was he having to deal with this weird lost child? Well, maybe it was partly his own fault for sitting there and staring at them for as long as he had - as there was just something off about them, something that bugged the Nameless, though he couldn't actually say what it was. Thinking back on what Caelus had told him, he sighed and walked over to them. "Misha, right?", he tried to make himself sound friendly but his tone still came out strained and rather annoyed - this dreamscape area was just not for him, "I'm Seiko - I'm with that other lot...erm the other Astral Express members". Did that explain enough? Well, maybe not - they still were looking rather confused. "Erm - have you seen the others? We kinda got separated about that whole second death bullshit...", he gazed around once more, "...where even is this?". It seemed so different from the usual bright lights of the golden hour.

He sat leaning against the bars of the other's cell, a book spread out in their lap as he frowned in concentration. It'd taken a lot to admit that he wasn't able to read, even more so to ask for Yumeno's help with learning - but now it gave them both something to do while they were stuck here waiting for whatever punishment was about to befall them. "What does this say?", he asked softly, shifting to show them the page better. Maybe it could be seen as a little ironic that someone created from a book, couldn't actually read any text that he knew of - though he was getting better at recognising certain words and characters.
