matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: can it be a conventional earth weapon[personal profile] drymonster on June 16th, 2024 10:53 pm (UTC)
[ shrugs. ]

As well as can be expected, I guess.

[ which is Not Great, but that's mostly for theater and karma reasons. ]

How about you?

[ Oh, Karma. ]

Alive. Functioning well enough. Could use a cigarette.

[ A little haplessly. He's also about as well can be expected. ]
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: you're just not very good[personal profile] drymonster on June 16th, 2024 11:37 pm (UTC)
...Yeah, that sounds about right.

[ he cares too much about his skin and how he smells to smoke outside of rare social occasions, but. man. sighs. ]

I'd thought we wouldn't have to worry about dying early because they'd want to make sure to keep us alive for the two months until the ritual, but there goes that one point of optimism.

[ Their bath situation is actually Todomatsu's personal nightmare. ]

No. It's looking decidedly less like a mass sacrifice and more a gradual offering... little by little.

[ Running a hand through his hair. ]

It still opens the avenue of maybe attempting to intercept before we reach some kind of ponit of no return, but...

It's going to be much more difficult now.
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: shut up walltar[personal profile] drymonster on June 16th, 2024 11:52 pm (UTC)
[ it's fine, his innate cuteness is keeping him smelling fresh........

he nods. ]


And now this monster thing's an even bigger liability than we thought it was. Like, it was already creepy, but it seemed like you could pretty much opt out of the whole system if you wanted to. Now we're all just ticking monster time bombs.

Mm.

[ His outward reaction is really mild but it's probably a lot more telling how the black words begin to scrawl over his arms in creepy moving lettering, like spiders skittering over his sleeves. AGAIN. AGAIN. AGAIN. ]

We'll want to make sure it never gets to that point. How, I don't know -- I only know how to treat diseases and injury, not this... but the next best thing I can do is try to look at it like one.
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: i don't know them[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 12:12 am (UTC)
[ ah. yeah, that's... definitely saying something. ]

...Well, I guess if you come up with something, let me know if I can do something to help with it. [ ... ] Preferably not lab rat stuff.
daan.: pic#17199443[personal profile] recession on June 17th, 2024 12:22 am (UTC)
...I wouldn't ask you to do something like that, Mr. Matsuno.

[ Jeez, what kind of person do you think he is. Karma? ]

Though I'll keep it in mind, if something doesn't look like a one-person job... or if I need more eyes.

...

That's not meant to be funny.
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: that should work right?[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 12:40 am (UTC)
[ you know it probably would have gone over his head if it hadn't been pointed out, but since it has been, that gets his first actual smile of the day. ]

Okay, got it.
daan.: pic#16962924[personal profile] recession on June 17th, 2024 12:44 am (UTC)
...

[ He's at least a little at ease that Todomatsu managed a smile, even small. ]

Anything I can get you? Water?
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: no you know what i told it wrong[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 02:47 am (UTC)
[ no don't offer to wait on him this will bite you in the ass someday when he's more comfortable with everyone ]

Mm, I'm okay right now, but thanks!

Maybe ask again if you ever see me coming out from the wine cellar, though.

[ Help... he'd wait on you a lil bit, Totty... He snorts softly. ]

Not normally much of a drinker? Although calling the things here "drinks" is pretty big praise.
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: it had everything[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 03:16 am (UTC)
Oh, no, I totally am. Buuut not necessarily the best at holding it. Especially when it's on an empty stomach.

[ which it very often is here because the food sucks!! ]
daan.: pic#17145983[personal profile] recession on June 17th, 2024 03:21 am (UTC)
True. At least you're aware of that, because a lot of people aren't.

Couldn't blame you if you tried it though. We all have our limits, and sometimes we want to change it up a little before it gets overwhelming.

[ You can drink alcohol to restore sanity in his canon so. You know. He gets it. ]

Wish we had something nicer. Then at least we could make a decent real drink or two.
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: i saw that on the WB actually[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 03:30 am (UTC)
[ i see........ ]

Seriously. Maybe someone can make that their request for this week, if they're willing to share.
daan.: pic#17146147[personal profile] recession on June 17th, 2024 03:34 am (UTC)
[ Just saying!! He cannot legally judge someone for drinking to forget the horrors here, doctor or not.

He sighs.
]

Mr. Aventurine and Mr. Boothill both knew their alcohol. [ A shame...... ] Tempting, but we'll see. As nice as it'd be, I'm sure we can all think of more vital things to request.
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: this can't be during your sweeps[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 03:49 am (UTC)
...Yeah. Unfortunately.
daan.: pic#16962921[personal profile] recession on June 17th, 2024 03:52 am (UTC)
I forget if I asked. Did you receive that generator after all?
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: i'm saying... things... aren't relative[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 04:05 am (UTC)
Not exactly, it's specifically a phone charger. It's just solar powered.

I'd think they should be able to make a more generic power source with the same technology, though.
daan.: pic#17146074[personal profile] recession on June 17th, 2024 04:07 am (UTC)
Solar powered?

[ ??? You can do that? ]
matsuno todomatsu (゚ε^* )彡☆: oh you know him?[personal profile] drymonster on June 17th, 2024 03:06 pm (UTC)
Yeah. I'm not entirely sure how it works, but it generates power from absorbing the sun's rays. It's a really good source of renewable energy.
daan.: pic#17146091[personal profile] recession on June 17th, 2024 04:46 pm (UTC)
...Technological advancement is pretty impressive.

Shame that it only works on your phone, but like I said before -- I think having something like that around and powered will be handy anyway.
