“Ew.”

[lunarscaled]

Clearly you, little thing. Don't be ashamed of your name!

"It's not! Pick something else!"

"I don't even look like a bean?!"

[cursedshaman]

❝ Ah, Ge ~ to! Join me in the springs, won't you? ❞

He finds himself nearing the water's edge, kneeling low onto the stones around the spring and reaching over to pet the top of Mahito's head.

"Join you? Hm, I suppose I could use some rest and relaxation. Ask me kindly though; what's the magic word~? Maybe then I'll consider it..."

-- ❝ Welcome to my home. ❞ Gita briefly looks up from her paperwork, sensing the odd aura from them in the process. ❝ How may I be of service? Afraid I only really spend time with the dead. ❞

[godsbox-a]

you believe in the soul as an independent entity ,  then ?

did he have to split hairs with raggedy andy ? there's an absurdity to the whole ordeal, like staring dead - on at a weird mall mannequin or a creepy kid drawing       laughing &. scowling weren't feelings so far separated, after all. the sharp breadth of his next exhale might've melted into either. ❝ what's to believe ? i see. ❞

[lunarscaled]

Your name is bean? How cute.~

"No, it's not. Who the Hell would be named bean?"

[lunarscaled]

@cursedstitch replied to your post “❝ ... Eh? You want me to name you? I was just...”:

❝ CONTROL him? You're not very bright.~ He does as he pleases. ❞

"Well, can he do it... further away from me?"

[lunarscaled]

❝ ... Eh? You want me to name you? I was just going to keep calling you little creature. ❞

"I'll take that over bean..."

"Can't you control that other guy at all? You two are really a pest problem..."

[lunarscaled]

❝ Pspsps ...~ Come here, little creature. ❞

"... creature?"

-> For obvious reasons, they feel some distaste at his word choice. Lyric shakes the paws of a panting, pleased-looked Hainu on the roadside near a shrine---it seems they were in a... conversation of some kind with it before he approached them like a stray cat.

"You're talking to me?"

' even if you manage to save the world, you still won't be saved '

𝐎𝐌𝐍𝐈𝐒𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑'𝐒 𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐖𝐏𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐓

-> Curses---fist sized, no more than gnats in the food chain, wings like sheets of black tissue paper that flutter in their open palms---daze around them in the shapes of mocked ink butterflies: regrets, the little ones, flock to them. Bees to flowers, addicts to venom; they sit in a garden of unbloomed hydrangeas whose buds are still sharp green, surrounded by creatures normal humans can't see, their lap filled with a tortoiseshell cat whose peeked-open yellow eye at the pale haired man on the other side of the bush seems a little too knowing to be normal. There's a sensation on the back of their neck like hot claws scratching over their skin; it's a stinging they are familiar with around a rather distasteful priest they cannot seem to be rid of, but it is something so very few and far between they thought it to be a matter of personal affliction, not a sense. Their hand smooths along the back of the cat in their lap with its deep purr rumbling through their legs. Their other hand itches the prickling skin on the back of their neck.

"---Saved by what? You're making that statement with the impression there is someone to save me to begin with."

-> Their palms massage the cheeks of the pleased cat in their lap who shows its approval of their devotion with loud purrs, but Lyric's puncturing orange gaze remains focused on Mahito, even as the bug-like curses that have flocked to them flitter in and out of their view. Swarmed by blackened, weaving insects doting around them like they are, they look like their own living curse.

"I'm not trying to save the world. I'm just being fair to everything--- nonhumans included."

[lunarscaled]

❝ ... Say ... you ever eaten someone before? ❞

"---What an abhorrent question."

-> Which, of course, he asks when they are in the middle of their meal: chopsticks poking at a bit of meat sizzling in the corner of their bowl that they haven't yet touched. They remember hearing a rumor that pork tastes awfully close to human meat, but farm pigs usually aren't fed the omnivorous diet of humans, so they can't fathom how someone came to that conclusion outside of eating it themselves. They pinch a bit of noodles and meat and greens all in one go and blow on it gently before bringing it to their mouth, letting the sitting silence be more of an answer to his question than words would be. ( they have to play it calm when they speak---no one else can see him, after all. if they were agog or flustered it would seem to be at nothing, so they keep their stoic expression even when they chew and talk softly. )

"Why do you want to know? Gonna mess with my lunch?"

[cursedshaman]

Arms are thrown around him, huff soft. ❝ Ge~~to, we should find more games to play. ❞

"More games? What kind of games are you thinking of?"

Idly, one hand raises to card into the curse's smokey blue hair, chuckling low.
