I'd much rather hang out with all kinds of people than fight monsters I can't even talk to. After all, there is nothing more complex and interesting than "people" in this world. text / audio / video / action art credit code credit

[ so that's a no, ]

I'm honestly impressed you can reverse it at all, even if it doesn't last...

Doesn't that hurt, though?

[biomancy]

I have to flay the offending pieces off, so yes.

The disappointment is in that it doesn't last.

[totalize]

Flay??

I understand the distaste, but... That's rather extreme, isn't it?

I suppose you're fine, since I haven't seen any sign of that, but I'll still express my concerns for you all the same!

[biomancy]

I should hope you haven't.

I have long mastered the art of healing over injuries. My biomancy allows me to correct injuries or imperfections.

Surely you don't think a warrior like myself has no scars naturally?

[totalize]

Well... No...

[ He'd noticed, since it's hard to miss especially when he's truly seen all of Heinrix, but. Now he's feeling a little silly, since he just hadn't thought about it? It's the sort of thing that's become easy to just not think too hard about, since with all the different worlds and abilities out there, he finds himself out of his depth more often than not.

A fact that is not at all changing with this conversation, of course. ]

That doesn't change my concern, though! Even if you can heal it, naturally I'd still be worried about you hurting yourself.

It's really that taboo where you're from? So far, there's little that would separate you from the Thiren of New Eridu, at least to me...

[ Heinrix should remain silent, but he cannot. ]

I have executed men for far more minor crimes. For even entertaining straying from the emperor's light.

This is far and beyond that.

[ It would be a lie to say that wasn’t intimidating, since he is a criminal, but… ]

I’m sorry, Heinrix. I hope that didn’t come off like I’m minimizing things.

[ Though he’s also glad to be having this conversation through text instead. He worries about Heinrix, he really does, but in this moment? There’s something bitter in his heart.

At least you’re alive.

Don’t you dare leave me too.

…And he’d be lying to himself to blame his Spectral soul for that. How shameful. ]

Maybe this isn’t my place, but I’d hope you wouldn’t turn your sword on yourself in that way.
