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 riveting. He'll invite himself up to stop at her side, then.]

Jeira.

[murchada]

...Oh, hey.

[look at that, we got acknowledgment. though she's just making another note instead of really looking up.]

[latinumsbetter]

[he moves to glance at her work] What're you doing?

[murchada]

Making a record of what's available in the library.

[latinumsbetter]

This the reason you were pretty quiet at the meeting? [he knows it isn't, but gotta open that door somehow]

[murchada]

Sure. Yeah. Work on the brain.

[absolutely full of it.]

[latinumsbetter]

Yeah, you got a moon to sell me also?

[murchada]

Nah, it's not for sale.

Still waiting for my paper sun, by the way.

[see, we're bantering. this is banter. she's so into the banter. wow.]

[latinumsbetter]

Oh that? It's in production. You'll have to be patient a little longer.

In the mean time, you wanna tell me what's got you all distracted?

[murchada]

...Beats me.

[latinumsbetter]

Sure. And I've secretly been an all-powerful Wormhole Alien all along.

[murchada]

Well, damn Quark, why did you even need the god powers then?

[latinumsbetter]

Eh, y'know, I thought it'd be a fun vacation.

So, the whole guilt thing got anything to do with this? Or is it the thing you regret?

[murchada]

...Both.

I wasn't lying, you know. I don't... know why it's bugging me.

[latinumsbetter]

Another one of those things where it's all the emotion and none of the explanation, huh?

1/2

[murchada]

Basically.

I just-- I can feel... When I think of whatever my "greatest shame" is...

2/2

[murchada]

...I think I did something really bad.

[latinumsbetter]

...you, or the person you got your original data from?

[murchada]

It's not really that different, is it?

[isn't it still her, in a way?]

[latinumsbetter]

Sure it is. That's like saying two people from a transporter accident are exactly the same.

[murchada]

...From a what.

[what???]

[latinumsbetter]

[Ah. Right.] In my universe you can move instantly from one place to another within a certain distance via transporter. It's rare, but once in a while there can be an accident where something interferes with the transporter and because of that, someone gets cloned.

[murchada]

...What the fuck.

[latinumsbetter]

[he shrugs] Like I said, it's rare.

[murchada]

...Right.

Well, I mean. You'd still feel guilty enough if your exact copy did something, right? It's still you.
