Mine? Well. [ He taps his chin. ] It wasn't very much exciting, but I did get close with the dead man. I wonder if it was the departure from our lovely vacation that killed him.
You know, so much of it went over my head. [ He sighs. He is but a simple bimbo. ] But we need to harvest the energy of Yule if we want any chance to triumph over the humbugs.
They're evil, jealous creatures that turned this land to ice.
[ He waves a hand. ]
That is, according to Professor Klauseron. The only way to combat them is Yule Energy. Maybe all this themed material has been protecting us all this time.
[A light squeeze to Belial's knee. What does he care, either? He's just convinced this body is another shikigami body he's made, and the real him is far, far away. So what? He's died more than he can count.]

[ This would be SO funny. ]

True. He's a prickly cat. How tragic he won't live to see his next birthday.
no subject
You couldn't soften him up for me, could you?
no subject
Just promise me you'll treat him right.
no subject
[Splaying a clawed hand against his chest in mock gratitude.]
Of course I will. I'll give him the same treatment I gave you. I'm generous that way.
no subject
Well then I trust you completely. Just leave it with me.
no subject
[And just reaching over to gently rest a hand on Belial's knee.]
Now, now. You haven't told me about your adventures.
no subject
Mine? Well. [ He taps his chin. ] It wasn't very much exciting, but I did get close with the dead man. I wonder if it was the departure from our lovely vacation that killed him.
no subject
Departure? Ooh! Tell me more, tell me more!
no subject
But I had to let him go. I guess he couldn't survive it.
[ Actually Mugen was fine? He just disappeared? ]
no subject
[A tilt of the head. No jingling this time, because he removed his bells.]
Survive what?
no subject
[ He strokes his chin. ]
It was fairly difficult to parse. But from what I understood it's friendship that will be our saviour.
no subject
[he says, like he didn't just almost die in that cyoa]
"It's" friendship? Whose friendship? Or are you saying friendship in general?

[the what for the what]
What are these...humbugs? What's Yule? Isn't Yule another name for Christmas?
no subject
[ He waves a hand. ]
That is, according to Professor Klauseron. The only way to combat them is Yule Energy. Maybe all this themed material has been protecting us all this time.
no subject
[He doesn't know if he likes that.]
So why did you say that beings like us weren't made for the place?
no subject
We're in a space of converging dimensions, and our poor sacks of flesh won't survive.
no subject
Mmmmm. Mmmmm! How bothersome. So this space, this voice between voids, is doomed from the start? And I guess this Yule Energy will help us survive?
no subject
[ Should he be more concerned their doom is imminent? Well, he's lived thousands of years already, who cares. ]
Those were his parting words: be merry.
no subject
[A light squeeze to Belial's knee. What does he care, either? He's just convinced this body is another shikigami body he's made, and the real him is far, far away. So what? He's died more than he can count.]
Haha, well, we got started on that, didn't we?
no subject
I daresay you have the right idea.
no subject
[A light observation, as he slides his hand slowly up the man's leg.]
...You never did tell me what you and Lucilius are.
