Through the Living Hope Posted December 10, 2024 Posted December 10, 2024 Just now, Ookla the Inconclusive said: Pyre looked at him curiously. "I've been using you like personal therapy, trying to use you to replace the family I lost..."

Pyre didn't think that was a bad thing, necessarily. He hopped over and nuzzled the man.

Through the Living Hope Posted December 10, 2024 Posted December 10, 2024 46 minutes ago, Ookla the Inconclusive said: Pyre nuzzled him some more. Kal picked Pyre up and held him close to his chest. "Thank you."
Through the Living Wrath he/him Posted December 10, 2024 Posted December 10, 2024 7 hours ago, Ookla the Inquisitive said: Dr. Warren notices the faked smile but realizes that Kal doesn’t actually know her. Maybe he’d be more willing to talk once they knew each other better. Dr. Warren leads him down the stairs, through a hallway, and into a small room with a few chairs. She pulls one up for each of them. “I have a couple technicians setting up actual equipment, but for now I can answer any questions you have, and I’d be glad to hear anything you’d like to talk about. It might be ordinary for you, but your daily life may be quite important.” Adtae looked at the doctor from under the mask. I do not have a daily life. Only my duty. Quote What would the doctor’s reaction to Adtae being Death be?

Through the Living Heir he/him Posted December 11, 2024 Author Posted December 11, 2024 2 hours ago, Ookla the Inconclusive said: It snuggled into his chest softly. @Ookla the Inquisitive Quote I’m not sure, honestly. You could go to sleep, seek out some technicians, or wander around. 4 hours ago, Ookla the Dragonslayer said: Adtae looked at the doctor from under the mask. I do not have a daily life. Only my duty. Quote What would the doctor’s reaction to Adtae being Death be? “That is a daily life, is it not? What duty do you have?” Quote Incredulous and intrigued, probably. Given a good explanation, she’d probably try to figure out how to pacify and harness the ghosts instead of banishing them.

Through the Living Hope Posted December 11, 2024 Posted December 11, 2024 (edited) 18 hours ago, Ookla the Inconclusive said: Pyre fell asleep while snuggling. Kal smiled. He went to the bed with Pyre, but didn’t sleep for a while. He pulled a folded paper out of his pocket. He unfolded it twice and looked longingly at the picture it showed. The outdated photograph had four subjects, one of whom was Kal himself. It was clear from the angle that he was the one holding the camera. Sitting on his lap and smiling at the camera was a young girl with the same bright green eyes as her father, though her straight auburn hair was clearly her mother's. And the mother herself leaned against Kal, her smile extending up into her hazel eyes. In her lap rested a sleeping newborn baby boy with his father's dirty blond curls. He was maybe two months old, and both Kal and his wife had bags under their eyes that showed how tired they were. Kal sipped in a breath. He wiped the tears from his eyes and held the photo and the sleeping Pyre. @Ookla the Inconclusive Edited December 11, 2024 by Ookla the Mom Friend

I dare say we could find an application for that. Dr. Warren takes the vague explanation and assumes Adtae is part of some sort of checks and balances system. “Our initial experiment is set up, but if you want to keep talking you can.”

(although…. You may discover something… interesting about the matter that would fit your criteria… maybe.) I will experiment. If my power can help the world, this is a thing that must happen.

Quote Good point, the IISC is rather against putting people on hamster wheels. If they go back, I think it is replicable, correct? It depends on how biological spirit energy I forgot how to spell is. Dr. Warren nods, standing up and walking to a door. “We have machines that use different kinds of light to look at things. We’ll test it on the shadow energy, and if it doesn’t break anything, we can use it for its intended purpose and examine you. It’s standard medical procedure, replacing dissections as the general way to determine how anatomy works.”

Dr. Warren nods back. “If it makes you feel better. But remember that any cultural taboos you have do not apply to us.” Through the door is an apparatus that seems designed to spin around a person on a circular track on the floor, and a few people setting it up, some human and some Vvondin.

Adtae would have laughed, had he been able. It is no cultural taboo. Just a precaution. When the tides of the Andarik found my soul, they burst through it. The Andarik strained it until it broke… until it became a leaky vessel. So other Andarik takes any chance it can get to fill the gap. It rushes through the hole torn in my soul. However, the chances it takes require circumstances, if the Andarik is already bound within a soul. A direct connection. Touch, or… sight. When one sees my eyes… their soul warps. Their Andarik energy pulls towards me, and they… die. Quote I did some thinking bout this I think it’s pretty good. 1
