That's not the lesson you were supposed to take away, you brute!
[ is "brute" becoming something like a pet name? yeah ]
...But if you're being serious about being able to patch me up, I would take you up on that offer (bedside manner or no). I mean it when I say that I don't want them to worry after me. I went to visit after your bite, and completely reasonably, Miss Dorothea was very concerned about it.
So your bite doesn't ache anymore, no. It's something like a scar now, lest you get any ideas about making another mark. I've already noticed how you think like a Thiren at times.
You do have my sympathies about that contrast in you versus your Soul, though. I may not fully understand what you mean when you talk of being a god and a desert and all of that, but I at least have imagination enough to manage. Would a spritzing of water work, do you think? Believe it or not, I'm actually quite good with plants.
You are the one not thinking logically about this. What hurts I cause, I can mend — then, you need not be looked upon by Dorothea or worse, the doctor, with such judgment.
My bite was perfectly placed and very precise. What on earth would she have to be concerned about. A Thiren, though? What is that? Are they powerful?
[ the OFFENSE, like wtf do you mean you're not letting him practice on you and are going to other people who are not ADMIRING his capacity for violence?? ]
Water is the issue, Hugo. There is a juxtaposition between the practicality in providing my Natural Soul with its own biological needs, and the instinctive aversion to it, as functioning outside of my divine parameters risks my destruction. It is a markedly different experience to those who have difficulty accepting the changes that have overcome them, but it also — is comparable, perhaps. I do not hate my form, but I am always battling the rationale: why this Soul, what does it mean that we are paired, and how do I best help it?
[ He’s not thinking logically? But, no. He knows better than to argue about that. Set is at a cut above, but he’s still a level of stubborn that he understands, and thus! Sometimes the wisest way to play the game is not to play. Et cetera. ]
She was concerned about the holes it made, as was I, but more for the structural stability. It wasn’t healing at all on its own, so it seemed prudent to at least have it checked out. I don’t exactly understand how my body works anymore, biologically speaking… But who is the doctor? I’ve only met with Dorothea.
As for Thiren, they’re people in my world that bear animal traits. It can be relatively minor, like ears or a tail, or they can be fully anthropomorphic versions of those animals. Either way, they tend to bear the instincts of their ancestors, so. I’m familiar with the possessive implications of a bite, essentially. I dated a wolf Thiren for several years.
[ kart’s bravest twink dropping that lore so casually… anyways ]
And ironically, I almost find that I’d rather talk about *that* than I would the relationship with our Souls… You can count me among those who has difficulty accepting my own. But I am curious about that last part. You want to help the Soul you have, truly?
