I've never been possessed, so I don't have anything to compare it to. The closest thing... the last time I blacked out, it was from alcohol. I didn't have any memory of what happened.
Omi. [And they place a hand on their shoulder.] If it is any consolation...others experienced the same as we did. The way we fell asleep, all of a sudden.
...A Servant's life is like an ephemeral flower. A Master may choose to admire it, or pluck it at its route before moving on.
[And then a pause - they break out in a small peal of laughter.]
But besides that...besides that! [And their expression sobers.] I wish to live, mmm. After everything this humble priest has been through...its hardly as if I want to throw a chance such as this away?

Is it weird to say that does make me feel better?

[They smile at that, lightly.]
I do wonder why the Avatars were barely concerned, mmm. Perhaps they viewed that murder as an indulgence as well?
no subject
I wouldn't be surprised. They did have the part about dying on the welcome document.
no subject
They did...and those bodies as well. Remember that room? If they were anticipating this...then surely this will not be the last.

[His breath is seems more controlled than usual.]
Think they'll use them for something?
no subject
[There are no answers, here.]
[They lean in, after a pause, to kiss Omi's ear.]
...Are you scared, Omi?
no subject
Maybe? If I am, it's not as much as I probably should be.

[Well, then.]
And yet...you say that this is not something that overly concerns you. Why?

...Do you care for your own life, Omi?
no subject
I do. What about you?

no subject
Good. It's important, especially in this kinda place. I want you to live too.
no subject
[There's a flicker of something in their expression at that, and they're silent for a moment.]
...You're very kind, Omi.
