[WELL THAT'S A TRIAL HUH. Wow. Can't even sit here laughing about how nu is finally dead because everyone else is also dead NOT ANOTHER 4 BODY WEEK 2.
Dahut is at a bit of a loss here because he can fuss over everyone else with the questionable food they have, but SIDON CAN'T EAT PIES SO WHAT NOW!! Now all he can do is approach with some water, looking subdued. He's not a big reactor and had pretty much remain unfased through that whole vote debacle, but the air of unhappiness is ALIVE AND WELL.
Fortunately this isn't Matsui and he's perfectly capable of shelving that displeasure to focus on Sidon who is probably doing worse considering it was his case and his killer.]
Monsieur Sidon, can I get anything for you...? We don't have much to offer... There's a beach that you might be able to fish something up at, but...
[ NOT ANOTHER 4 BODY WEEK 2 at least i'm here. he really will not be eating anything today but later he will eat some pie filling. or something. WHAT A LIFE.
he accepts the water with a little smile. ]
Oh, it's all right. I'm very good at fishing—if there's a beach, that'll be enough!
[ he takes a sip and goes back to staring at whatever. ]
Though I suppose I should take care not to die again.
[FUCKING HELP W2 MASSACRE BUT NU IS HERE THIS TIME STRANGLES YOU. This is terrible though we need to stop asking for labs and ask for a place that Sidon can eat that isn't the night beach, christ.]
If you're sure... [While Sidon is staring at whatever, Dahut's just staring at Sidon, radiating vibes of fussy concern.]
Oh - if you die here, you should come back, so at least there's that! But I'd suggest against testing your luck anyway, considering you might get eaten faster.
[ YOU LEFT THE CAT DOOR OPEN AND I CAME RUNNIN IN!!!!! but yeah it's fine there's a beach it's enough (it's a weird ice beach and everything here is meat or whatever) eh
he's a prince but he's still not really used to being fussed over, looking a little amused. ]
I'll try to take care of myself. Please explain being eaten.
[I KNOW!!!! im leaving it open for someone else as we speak to see if it works twice
Also listen NOT THEIR LOCATIONS. Sometimes the graveyard becomes weird... for unexplained reasons... Wild how this stuff happens. Dahut reaches out to pat Sidon's arm.]
It's just a guess, but there are other ghosts here that are much less solid and put-together mentally than we are. One of them claimed that they think they used to be like us! So that doesn't bode well, maybe.
YES WONDER WHY ALL THESE FUCKING NERD LOCATIONS ARE HERE?? INEXPLICABLE. he gives him an appreciative look at his little patpats. really there are so few physically affectionate people on this fucking ship. ]
Is that where the rest of the senior crew went...? [ concerning. he doesn't feel like a ghost, but who can say how long that'll last. ] It was never safe to assume that being dead meant being safe. Even though I'm glad that you all weren't lost to us forever.
Truly wild though! ALSO THERE REALLY ARE. DAHUT HAS BEEN DYING. HE WANTS HUGS ALL THE TIME AND ALL HE GETS IS EUNHYUK AWKWARDLY TRYING TO PAT HIS HANDS WHILE HE'S ALREADY PATTING EUNHYUK'S HANDS.]
I think so... [Wilting a little... He really does not want to become a little wisp of a person trapped in the Helly Belly forever.] I'm glad that we're all still here for now, too! But it's definitely a good idea to work on getting back out quickly, and minimizing risks that could get us absorbed faster... Oh, speaking of, don't try to go through the flesh wall.
[ EUNHYUK IS TRYING SO HARD EVEN IF HE'S JUST A MAN_STANDING.........
anyway, when he spots his lil lettuce guy wilting, he gives his shoulder a pat. ]
From what I know, souls last quite a long time! There's a lot of brilliant minds here, including yours, and others who wish to help us. I'm sure there's a solution to be found.
[HE REALLY DOES DO HIS BEST... HIS LIL INEXPRESSIVE MANSTANDING BEST........
He is so soothed by the fact that Sidon does not immediately run away at the idea of physical contact though damn, what a great benefit to their best and favorite fish fucking dying horribly.]
Mm... You're right about that! If we all put our energy and effort together, it should be fine! [OPTIMISM.
Also he shakes his head.]
No, but I was there to monitor Monsieur Viktor when he tried and had to pull him back when the wall tried to eat him.
[ yeah!!! now they really do just need to viciously murder rosamund.
he responds with a little smile before his expression turns... it's not exasperated. it's the sort of vibe of being a sheepdog and just accepting that sometimes your sheep will break off and rush towards their deaths. ]
Oh, I see. Yes, that sounds like something you and Viktor would do. [ and something that dahut would watch him do. ] Are the two of you... all right?
This is so valid, though. He's picked the worst fucking flock. These scientists do whatever the fuck. At the question, he wilts a little again...]
We are...! I'm sure you can understand that I wasn't very happy to hear that my organs were being passed around like a soup ladle, but I had a chat with him and I can understand why he did that. Everything ended up where it should be, anyway, so it's fine! I'm more worried about Monsieur Viktor and Monsieur Scien, but there isn't much that I can do but try to help that delicately...
[ his flock of nerds and soon to be teenage girls. the girls are more bearable. but he will give him another comforting pat, though it's joined with a sigh. ]
...I understand. I'm sure it was upsetting for you—especially with how much you both have pored into your research.
I'd hoped they could resolve their differences here, but maybe coexisting is enough. [ he doesn't exactly want to force them to be buddy buddy or anything. ]
[The girls are always more bearable. He appreciates the comforting pat, though...]
Mm, it was... My memory bank is the most important part of me, after all. [HIS EVERYTHING IS IN THERE. THAT'S THE DAHUT.]
I hope that they'll be able to become friends someday, but Monsieur Scien already has so few of those... So as long as they can work together, I'll be happy enough for now.
...It really is your core. [ not just a heart as an organ, but a heart as this metaphysical construct. wild. ] I hope you can keep it close to you from hereon out.
[ no more dahut murder... not even for science. his expression shifts from more serious consideration back to a little smile. ]
I think comrades will suffice, even if they aren't friends. I was worried they might be even worse than that.
[THE WHOLEASS DAHUT!! Both of his hands raise to rest over his chest where a normal person's normal heart would be.]
It is. Aaall of my memories and emotions are in my memory bank, so in addition to the technology being very important to protect, it's just important to me on a personal level. [The idea of someone poking around in it is viscerally unpleasant for many reasons...]
I'll do my very best to keep it inside of me this time! [THANKS DAHUT. Maybe a little death for science but perhaps none that involve removing his heart again thanks... He also just nods very fastly in agreement with that.]
Me, too... But Monsieur Scien doesn't typically hold grudges- [BECAUSE HE'S FUCKIN NEUTRAL ABOUT EVERYTHING.] -and Monsieur Viktor seems to be able to handle dealing with him, so!
[ the way dahut's heart got passed around like a lil hot potato help me. ]
I trust them to be mature about it!
[ SHOULD HE? their fucking stembeef. it's fine. they can be enemies to lovers. they're both rational enough, at least, to work towards a common goal as long as their means don't start to deviate too far from one another. ]
So your... emotions are in there as well? But you have to be careful with them? [ the reliver emotion struggle ]
[Their stembeef won't get in the way of them getting the important things done, he has witnessed this with his own eyes when Viktor was absorbed into the flesh wall. Anyway:]
They are! [Patting his chest!] And that depends on what you mean by being careful... [Since so much was already spilled in trial, he'll just speak in straight terms instead of trying to dance around it like that time Sidon saw him PANICKING.] I removed the safety limiter from mine and expanded the capacity, so I'm less likely to have the sort of malfunction Monsieur Scien did.
[ OHHHHHH THEY REALLY ARE THE WORST FLOCK HE'S GOING TO PULL THEIR STUPID LITTLE NERD BODIES OUT OF THESE FLeSH WALLS ]
Yes, I recall he mentioned as much. Though you did not! [ ):< jk he's not mad but the callout remains ] I hope you can both avoid any mishaps. It's fascinating that you can affect your emotions like... a machine, almost.
Ehe... [Don't just sheepishly ehe about it.] I don't like to talk about it as openly as Monsieur Scien, but since things are already all exposed, it doesn't matter as much anymore. Thank you, though! I'd like to avoid any other issues, too.
[Something stupid is going to happen that will eventually find his threshold for malfunctioning just wait. There's another soft little laugh at that, though!]
Relivers go beyond biology, after all. Our memory banks do have non-biological components!
