[andexecutioner]

One of them was. The other one...

[Eh, well.]

I gave Mozu something.

[innocentloveholic]

What was it?

[andexecutioner]

It was sort of like those things Ferid makes.

[...You know, the almost fucking sarcastic amount of plush cats he's got on his shelves right now.]

[innocentloveholic]

[ ........ ]

A little cat? That's so cute! [ ... ] Speaking of, you totally missed out on all the fun by not coming to our fashion show cat party. Everyone spoke in like, adorable meow puns!

[ literally like maybe two people entertained her on that front, don't be fooled. ]

[andexecutioner]

...Yeah, I'm not exactly regretting anything, based on that.

[...Juri, you're an asshole.]

[innocentloveholic]

[ ...Juri, you're an asshole. ]

You're so meeeeeeeeeean, Adjudi-cat-or. [ the emphasis is necessary. ] Did you at least watch? We totally had some really cute fashions, and some people even had fun on the catwalk!

[andexecutioner]

Of course I watched; I always do.

[...uh]

...It's kind of my job.

[innocentloveholic]

[ ... ]

Well, yeah, but just because you watch doesn't mean you pay attention to what you're watching. Like, I watch Femt's shows all the time, but I totally zone out like ten minutes in because it's kinda boring waiting for the finale to begin.

[andexecutioner]

No, I pay attention to what I'm watching. I don't really space out all that much.

[innocentloveholic]

I'm totally jealousssss, it's gotta be great to have that much patience! [ Or... to have an attention span more than like five minutes, probably.

speaking of small attention spans, ] You didn't answer my question about bodies though. You got side-tracked by wearing people, and there was this little guy...

[ wiggle wiggle her little pandabat. ]

What do you do with the bodies of the deceased?

[andexecutioner]

[In fairness, he did confirm in the process that he does not in fact wear them.]

Why do you want to know?

[innocentloveholic]

What, a girl can't just be curious anymore?

[andexecutioner]

...Most people don't ask where something's kept unless they want to go looking for it.

[innocentloveholic]

I'm more interested in how they're being kept fresh, if they are. I mean, what am I gonna do with a dead body, reanimate it like that Frankenstein guy? There's no lightning here.

[andexecutioner]

...So if I gave you lightning - somehow - could you actually do that.

[MORBID...CURIOSITY COMPELS... jesus he has the attention span of a fucking flea during this conversation but he's trying.]

[innocentloveholic]

[ OH MY GOD....... DOES SHE...... YANK HIS CHAIN A LITTLE??? ]

Oh, without a doubt! [ yes, yes she will. ] I don't think they'd be anything like they were before—the soul is often considered someone's essence, right? If they didn't have their soul, they wouldn't be them, and since you take those...

I guess they'd be more like a blank slate or a zombie?

[andexecutioner]

[Huh.]

Souls are pretty malleable, though. Like you can mess with them enough to get a blank slate if you know what you're doing.

So it's someone's essence, I guess, but it doesn't really define anything either.

[...Are we having this conversation, why are we having this conversation.]

[innocentloveholic]

[ juri's such a boob omg ]

Oooh, really? That's a lot of power... [ ... ] Have you ever done that with any souls before?

[andexecutioner]

[he is entirely too much of a boob for threads done at two in the morning on three hours of sleep sometimes tbh]

I've never done it, no, but I know some people that have. Probably.

[innocentloveholic]

[ i love him ]

Have you ever wanted to try, or does that violate some weird moral code you have?

[ ...she gets the weird moral code thing, she too has a weird moral code, she would not be surprised about anyone else. ]

[andexecutioner]

It doesn't bother me or anything, I just don't know how to do it.

[He shrugs.]

If I ever need to learn how for whatever reason, I'll be taught then. Because it's something that can be taught, I'm pretty sure. But right now it's not important for me to know.

[innocentloveholic]

So the only thing that's important for you to know is how to take them and how to put them back?

[andexecutioner]

And what to do with them at the end of the game, yeah.

[innocentloveholic]

What do you do with them? I can't imagine you just give 'em back to the people you took them from or anything.

[andexecutioner]

Make it to the end of the game and I'll show you.
