actually it could still get cursed so knock on fuckin wood]
How is it that you seemed to know what would happen if someone were to murder here, then? Is that just- [HE'D GESTURE BUT HIS ARMS ARE FULL OF RABBIT so he just ends up raising his shoulders...] -one of those innate things you all know, or something else?
And now all of us including the three? Four? Of you are at the whims of... something else, presumably? Something that we dragged in with us, or just something that's always existed here, assuming that murder clause has been around as long as you have.
Something different from any one particular demon or corrupting force or this or that, I take it? Or are we just dealing with a little of this and a little of that from our respective fantastic adventures? Ah - and is that what was behind the voices from yesterday, too?
[runs fastly and runs past you like road runner and just keeps running straight into hell
Anyway he just fuckin SIGHS AT THAT and plonks his face down into the soft fur of this fat rabbit. Give him this. Give him a second of rabbit therapy so he can pretend they aren't dealing with some weird new evil entity even though they couldn't fckin defeat the last weird evil entity they ran across.]
A region from home, but not my home. [He rubs his nose against the rabbit's fur before pulling his face away again.] I gave someone who lives there a pair of rabbits once and by the time I came back, the whole of the Cloud Recesses was flooded with them! Hah. Soft little things.
Haha, both of the original pair were boys! No idea where the rest came from - but knowing him, he'd have taken wonderful care of the first two and any that came after, anyway.
[Soft about rabbits, though, cute. He hefts the bun in his arms.]
Was this a gift or has it always been here like the rest of you?
Ah! No wonder she's so sweet. She must be spoiled with attention, the darling!
[He says, absolutely intending on spoiling her further...]
Very kind of you to offer an out, too. I've visited her and her two friends before when they've just been scampering around in the office, haha. But, you know, there's nothing to be gained from not poking your nose where it doesn't belong! I'm too curious to not come say hello to you every now and then.
Hah! Really? Is that so? If you're used to just spending your time here with rabbits and those other fellows, it's a wonder you aren't already getting ready to drown half of us in the showers.
Yes, yes, it takes a little getting used to before you can handle large crowds of very angry people. At least no one's trying to take your head off, hm? --Assuming you have one to take off, haha. It'd be a convenient thing if you didn't! Anyway, I'd like to believe that you are.
[yall are some realass demons i can't believe i'm gonna have to pc again so wwx can be like "yall are still on thin ice but okay i believe you, mostly, probably"]
It'd be a nice thing, I'm sure. [He gives this bun one last snuggle before holding her out.] Thanks for the comfort of your dear friend here, too. Does she have a name, by the way?
[He's just. He's just been calling her John Cena.]
Trine? I see... [He will continue to call this bunny John Cena because Trine is a bad name. Whoever did that, you're bad at naming things. It was probably fuckin Akira wasn't it.]
She's a sweet thing. I'll be sure to spoil her plenty. Ah - but that's all I had to say for now! I'll come visit again some other time.

Were just... aware. Were hoping to avoid. Asked all not to kill, but did not anticipate accident.

Yes. Different from single force. Caused voices, as well.]

—Reminds me of the ones in Gusu.
[He says, muffled into the rabbit.]
no subject
black shadows tilts their head, though, appearing to watch him curiously.]
Gusu...? From home?

[it's hard to pin through the distortion, as usual, but maybe there's a bit of softness in their tone.]
Very soft. Good companions. A good gift.

[they pause for a few moments.]
Can visit her whenever you want. Do not have to see me to do so. She likes attention.

Still adjusting to so many around. But... do not mind the company. Most of the time.

Has been hard sometimes. Do not like when others are angry, but understand why. Am trying to do what I can.

[He just, y'know. Does not.]
no subject
Understand not all can be believed. Do not expect it of you. But... hope you may believe, in future.

they accept the bun back, just. holding her, for now. she seems satisfied with this.]
Had not named her before. Someone else offered name.
[the bun gets a fond little pat.]
Called her Trine.
