[me pointing across the bridge at franch]

Thank you. I'll be over in ten minutes.

[And he will! He will politely knock and wait to be let in, unless she's already out there in which case he will not knock because that'd just be weird.]

[ points back

but she will open the door! ]


Come in, come in. Would you like to come to my room?
modissty: (DEMON STEW)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-06 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Greeting her with a gently polite nod! Hewwo.]

Ah - would that be alright? If you don't mind.
departea: (pic#8326955)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-06 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
I don't! So far it's only been Nier and all he does is judge me.

[ it's said cheerfully enough

but she will go to lead the way upstairs ]
modissty: (well okay)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-06 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
[He will follow along... Though his brow furrows a little at that.]

Why does he do that? Of all people, that man has no room to be judgmental.

[Why is anyone friends with Sakyou.]

[ she snorts. ]

Well, you'll see.

[ but up the stairs! into her room! which is a small suite, with a kitchenette, a desk, a bathroom, a bed, and an armchair. the desk has a bunch of paperwork and books on it, for school, and the bed looks largely unused considering there's also stuff dumped onto it. the most alarming thing is that there are a lot of mugs of tea everywhere. ]

Tadaaaaa.
modissty: (mmmmmmmaybe not)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-06 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[And yet, it's still not as messy as Hugo's room... Hot damn.

There is perhaps a little waft of gentle judgment after all, though. TERRIBLE.]


...I - what need to you have for this many mugs...?
departea: (pic#8327240)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-06 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... you see.

[ she points at the couch. sit down, sakyou. there's no mugs there. ]

It's rather relaxing to make tea. But I can't drink it.
modissty: (DEMON STEW)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-07 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
[He will sit down... on this couch that lacks mugs... very carefully......]

...Why can you not drink it? Do you not like the taste?
departea: (pic#8326847)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-07 01:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I can't eat or drink anything.

[ so she just does the next best thing which is



make a lot of tea. ]
modissty: (consideration)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-08 08:54 am (UTC)(link)
[IS THAT THE NEXT BEST THING?? Anyway this is news to him, no one's told him Annie is fckin dead.]

Ah... You can't? Even here, like this?
departea: (pic#8331477)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-08 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope! I don't think this place could change how my body works to that severe of a degree.
modissty: (at the dining table)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-08 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sugoi, ghost-san...]

How strange... Several others have ended up altered in unexpected ways, I believe. [But he doesn't know since his ass is a normal human. Nerfed fools!] --May I ask why you can't eat or drink, then?
departea: (pic#8327079)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-08 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm like, dead. A ghost!

[ she does a 'tada' gesture ]

Different from how Manwol works, from what I've gathered.
modissty: (OH)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-09 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Ah! I see...

[He's meeting so many ghosts, damn. TWO WHOLE GHOST. That's more ghosts than he's ever known in his life.]

What do you mean by different? Are you less of a vengeful spirit, perhaps?

[Just roasting Manwol without even meaning to.]
departea: (pic#8331483)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-09 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
I actually don't know the exact details for her. We haven't spoken yet.

[ you know how funny it's been that manwol hasn't spoken to the other ghost in the game literally hysterical ]

But she can do a lot of stuff I can't. Like change clothes...
modissty: (pointedly looking away like a model)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-09 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
[I HATE THIS SO MUCH THIS IS HYSTERICAL.]

Ah... [He will change this now and go send Manwol her way so they can talk ghosty things.] --Is that why you wore the same thing to the dance earlier?

[NOW HE FEELS BAD FOR ROASTING HER. SHE'S FUCKIN DEAD.]
departea: (pic#8328283)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-09 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmhm, I can't change out of my clothes. Um, sometimes they can change just a little... like the shirts? But that hadn't been happening here.

[ because her fuckin ghost powers were nerfed ]
modissty: (DEMON STEW)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-09 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[IMAGINE BEING A GHOST WITH GHOST POWERS AND YOUR GHOST POWER IS JUST "CAN SLIGHTLY CHANGE THE SHIRT YOU'RE FOREVER STUCK WEARING".]

Mm... That isn't too surprising. I've heard the same from other people who have any sort of ability that an average living human doesn't seem capable of possessing, more or less. How strange, though...
departea: (pic#8326847)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-10 01:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah... in this case, it just made everyone think I was weird.

[ annie having to skirt around why she was dressed like a hobo at a fancy party because she also did not know why she was dressed like that ]
modissty: (breaktime)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-11 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
[i hate this for her even if it's absolutely hilarious]

It makes sense now, at the very least. I had certainly been curious myself at the time...
departea: (pic#8327193)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-11 12:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I was asked about it a few times... very curious how you can jump through hoops to try to rationalize something that's bonkers.
modissty: (at the dining table)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-11 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's a little bit of unease about that if only because it's TRUE AS HELL.]

Yes... The amount of mental flexibility I've seen displayed since arriving here has been - disconcerting, to say the least. When you can't even trust your own recollection of things or opinions or way of thinking, it's beyond unpleasant.
departea: (pic#8327186)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-11 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
It makes things more difficult, yeah.

But... maybe it means that it has to do that in order to win over us? I don't know.
modissty: (boy's working on empty)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-11 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[None of them know anything and it's absolutely hilarious. Truly the blind leading the blind.]

It's a possibility... Though I suppose - as usually - there isn't a way for us to verify or debunk it just yet.
