Week four

[letsplayamod]

Two more of your fellow gods, your companions, your friends, have met their end together. As you turn in for the night, and a new week dawns upon you, it's starting to be a bitter experience. Just how much of this will you be forced to take?

But all isn't just despair. The morning is brighter than the last. The storm clouds that previously plagued almost every day have dissipated, and this week brings plenty of sun and a friendlier breeze. Not to mention, another floor of this strange temple has revealed itself. Whatever lies within is your domain, not Typhon's. Keep it tight in your grasp, because you never know when you'll lose it.

So what exactly is supposed to happen when you do have a genuine relationship with someone living?

[stringup]

Well...sooner or later I'll end up doing something that'll cause problems because I cared too much.

[ Whether it's because she chose to save their lives or she forgets she doesn't have a place among the living anymore. ]

[latinumsbetter]

Something like what?

[stringup]

Like...I don't know, some self-sacrificing bullshit or...

[ ...Nah, she doesn't even want to entertain the next thought or it'd become a self-fulfilling prophecy. So she settles for this. ]

Just. Things that are not very death-like.

[latinumsbetter]

[....huh]

So it's more about what you'll do than, say, some weird power going off because Ferdinand held your hand or something.

[stringup]

—Why are you using that example?!

[latinumsbetter]

[That reaction makes Quark blink, sitting up a little, surprised...before he huffs, the corner of his mouth curling into a smirk, leaning back in to rest his arms on the table again]

Oh, please. You two didn't think you were being subtle, did you?

[stringup]

Being subtle about what?

[ Like, what is Quark referring to specifically, she doesn't know???]

[latinumsbetter]

The whole beginning stages of hyu-mon dating rituals you have going on. [Obviously, Velvet. You can't pull the wool over his eyes]

[stringup]

What human dating rituals???

[ You need to understand she has never dated anyone ever. ]

1/2

[latinumsbetter]

You know, the flirting.

2/2

[latinumsbetter]

[wait--] ...you do know hyu-mon dating rituals, right? Or do Abyssal Exalteds not have that?

[stringup]

I mean, we're still human sorta-kinda, but I've never dated anyone!

[latinumsbetter]

So all of that the past couple weeks...?

[stringup]

Wait, is that what you think was going on?

[latinumsbetter]

It seemed pretty obvious to me that's what was going on. [js]

[stringup]

There's no way he likes me like that!

[ Girl, ]

1/3

[latinumsbetter]

[That startles Quark enough that he barks out a laugh, because that's joke, right]

2/3

[latinumsbetter]

[....hold on she is not laughing]

3/3

[latinumsbetter]

You...really think that, don'cha?

[stringup]

[ She sort of gestures at herself, with a look on her face that's practically asking, "What on earth is attractive about this?" ]

[latinumsbetter]

[he takes in that gesture and gives her a mildly annoyed look to match the one on her face]

What?

[stringup]

I mean, what would he even like about me?

[ Velvet he's already said some of the things he likes about you,,, ]

[latinumsbetter]

If you want specifics, ask him. [he waves a hand] What I do know is that no man looks at a woman the way he looks at you and only wants to be friends.

[stringup]

[ Well, she's...

Slumping forward against the desktop again except she's putting her arms over her head too while making a noise that could be described as "dying cat". ]
