I'll ask him when he gets here! In an hour. He has to pick some stuff up for me.
Small animal portraits? Of their souls. That'd be cute, right? Oh, but they might not like the reminder... I'll keep thinking.
Niki told me he'd like ingredients and other kitchen stuff, and I'm gonna get Takasugi some new strings... Rinne is one of the ones I'm struggling with.
[ yeah, probably. but he lights up in a way that she loves, so she doesn't mind. she spoils all her foxes terribly. ]
Answering my question with a question isn't very nice, mister! But I am. I'm having to get used to a no-meat diet, but broths and bones are fine... anything else turns my stomach.
[ and she misses beef terribly. ]
The worst problem I still have is with Carnivora souls, which... happens to make up the majority of us, but befriending them early before they start to show helps! I really can't complain too much, some people have it a lot rougher than I do and don't handle it as well as I have either.
[ but
that's probably because she's been through a few bodies now. she knows they ultimately don't matter. your memories, your beliefs, your heart -- you, that's what matters. and another soul housed next to hers doesn't change that. ]
you say its not nice but you let it go every time so what does that say about you missy lol
[ there's probably a lot that can be said of people who take these transformations in stride. maybe if he were any different, he would have been able to feel and accept this soul with a little more grace. as it stands, it reminds him a lot of what he's lost. he can't help but recall the way a lemurian man had sat by the shore days before his death, murmuring about "no longer being lemurian"—
and maybe he kind of understands how that feels. not just out of sympathy, but out of a different emotion entirely; out of real comprehension of it. as much as he's told otherwise, and as much as he understands he's just... himself. in his own words, "lemuria is more important."
it's why it takes him a second to respond. ]
but that does sound pretty inconvenient
i think youre doing fine if i had to be honest i dun really like it but what can weeeeee doooo
[ she'd like to refrain from thinking about what it says about her for one day, actually. one conversation. she knows. thank god he doesn't. ]
Nothing, I guess! It is pretty inconvenient, but it's livable. I know I'm in the minority for people who see it that way -- you're definitely not alone in the dislike department, but I get it. It's just... To me, no matter what happens, how I change on the outside or what might shift within, I'm still me. Everything I've lived, done, haven't done -- all of that makes up who I am, so it doesn't matter if I lose something, gain something, forget something. But thaaaaaaaaat's because of my very special circumstances!
