[considering hum, peeking her head out again.]

Maybe it sounds more like it when I say it. Hatchwho... [the most delicate sneeze sound ever.]
sictransitgloriamundi: (that I never will learn)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-21 10:06 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, not like that. I just don't sneeze.
decohere: (Default)

[personal profile] decohere 2022-11-21 10:17 am (UTC)(link)
... Never? Huh. [still holding out the tissue, slowly lowers her arm.] What else don't you do?

Hiccup?
sictransitgloriamundi: (a cup)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-21 10:27 am (UTC)(link)
[shakes head]

I lack the internal physiology for most human reflexes. [gestures around his torso.] None of this is real.
decohere: (Default)

[personal profile] decohere 2022-11-21 10:31 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I saw when you were... [vague blurry wave of the tissue.]

Why'd you pick to look like this guy, though? Is he from something?

"Of course. Thank you." She smiles, practiced and entirely correct, and turns to go.

I dunno, it's a bit...

[ Expansive arm movement and 'bhwww' sound to indicate. everywhere. ]

Like, it's a lot.

[ Apologetic. There are at least two wolves inside him, and one of them doesn't want to clean it, but the other doesn't want to make someone else clean it. ]

Fiddly. It's the fiddly bits that make it cool, come on. Do you know about how trees talk to each other with mushrooms?

[a pause.]

Are you alive? I mean, technically speaking.

( Castor shrugs. Don't ask him, it's Pollux's quiz. He couldn't tell you what the animals had to do with saving Rita when Natsuno took it either. )

They're your companions that will assist you in obtaining it. As you should know, working together is the key to success.

( with a laugh, she offers a small clap to them both. )

There's no need for you both to be awkward about it.

( really... they're sort of the same, but they'll understand as they go. )
ninetoes: (yes love)

The Captain.

[personal profile] ninetoes 2022-11-22 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Look who's back, bitch.]

Captain, if I could have a word. I have something for you.
sictransitgloriamundi: (and fire couldn't burn)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
From a movie I saw, once. [shrugs] I just thought it was cool.
decohere: (Default)

[personal profile] decohere 2022-11-22 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? What's it about? [drops the plush on the floor and sits upon it, came prepared.]
sictransitgloriamundi: (a cup)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
I can't imagine it'll be very interesting.

[and yet, here he is. because gdi he likes stuff.]

[personal profile] ninetoes 2022-11-22 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
[That was easy. He turns, takes stock, and...yields.

From the inside of his waistcoat, Izzy pulls a bone. A human bone, a human rib bone, sharpened to a fine point on one end. It has been meticulously engraved with scrimshaw swallows and the sweet little scene of a ship on the waves.

It's a good dagger, all things considered. Izzy sort of hates to part with it.

And yet, he offers it all the same.]


Here. For bringing him back to me.
sictransitgloriamundi: (ever dreamed we even could be)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
[...

on the one hand, who is he to question a cool knife. on the other.]


... I feel like this situation requires a minimum of... three explanations.
ninetoes: (You're no good)

[personal profile] ninetoes 2022-11-22 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Cool knives are his love language, why are you rejecting this.]

You know perfectly well who I'm talking about.
sictransitgloriamundi: (spiral bones)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
I do, actually. This knowledge does nothing to explain why you have turned one of Skulduggery's ribs into a tasteful desk ornament. Which is clearly the more pressing question.

[He does like a little half shrug don't make him feel stupid twitch-wiggle.]

If you don't want it..

[He'll just put it away, then]
sictransitgloriamundi: (that I never will learn)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
I never said that. [scoffs] I couldn't allow you to keep it, obviously.
ninetoes: (ConONeill00172_icon)

[personal profile] ninetoes 2022-11-22 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I see.

[He wiggles the shiv a bit. Do you want it?]

Is that the nature of our relationship now? Allowing each other to do things?
sictransitgloriamundi: (with my whiskey)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
"Each other" is a bit of a stretch.

Don't bother with any pretense. It already belongs to me.
ninetoes: (Oh I was hit as a kid)

[personal profile] ninetoes 2022-11-22 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
And you belong to me, so here we are.
sictransitgloriamundi: (I'd not trade it for anything)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
[a slight quirk at the corner of his lips.]

You don't want to know what happened to the last man who thought that, human.
sictransitgloriamundi: (come in close now)

[personal profile] sictransitgloriamundi 2022-11-22 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
A group of entities that feed on human misery. They draw it out through a traveling carnival that grants humans their deepest desires.

[well that's what he thinks it's about, anyway.]
