I am not indirect or vague!!!!!!!!! [ HDU KOBY?????? ] You people simply do not know how to correctly petition a divine entity for information! It takes a certain degree of curiosity. That's why I like you, you are nosy and do not simply settle for a single answer. You attack from all angles, it is quite refreshing.
As for Shanks.
I could turn into the clown he pines over? What do you think. [ SET NO ]
You're CONFUSING, is what I mean. Neither you or Shanks makes it easy to get close, whether on purpose or accident I can't decide.
[A pause.] You like me? Really?
[Another pause, but this time to bury his face in his hands and sigh, long and heavy enough that Lincoln the duck gets concerned.] Do NOT do that. He likes you because you're YOU. That's the one thing you've got going for you.
How do you mean? I know I am difficult, but Shanks is quite easy to be close with. He's not hard to understand.
[ Says Set, who is notoriously BAD at reading and understanding EVERYONE. Maybe that's why he likes people with strong convictions: they're easier to figure out for him, because he can count on them adhering to what they believe in, instead of being sneaky little jerks ( like Osiris ). ]
Of course I like you, Koby. Your will is strong and you are very clever. I have always enjoyed people like that. It does not mean I will be merciful toward you if we fight. It just means I like who you are.
[ ok tho............. he still thinks it'd be a fun gift??? ]
[Huffing, flopping back on his bed, Lincoln crawling to rest on his chest.]
Have you ever considered that maybe he's easy to understand to YOU because of your connection? And that this is part of why he likes you? Because I assure you, he's very mysterious to most others.
Oh. Thank you. I like you too. [Matter of fact, just that simple -- accompanied by a photo of Lincoln sitting on him.]
Maybe if you talk about it ahead of time. Not as a surprise. I think he liked the nose, unfortunately.
[ Sadly, Set has no pictures of his terrible badger being cuddly and sweet. Instead, he sends Koby a recent image of said badger hunkered in a shadowy corner of his room, teeth bared and eyes shining like the devil in the camera's flash. The text across the image reads: Cursing me again. <3 So cuuuuuuuute ]
What was your relationship like with him? In the place you came from. Mystery or not, you're quite endeared to one another — that isn't a trifling bond.
[That is objectively a terrifying beast -- but Lincoln makes soft "wak" sounds and pokes at the phone with her beak, and her opinion counts for a lot.]
Would he try to eat Lincoln, do you think? Or could they be friends.
[There's a weighty pause.] Do you mean our real world? Or the village in between?

Hm. Well, that works for me. I hated the nose.
