[HELLO BITCH they're just vibing. Sometimes you just need to vibe in a courtyard under the sickly purple sky of hell.]

Hell is an afterparty.

[He's just quoting what the personal demon he spoke to told him, and he sounds about as exhausted as they did, too.]

[preordain]

Well. It definitely tracks as a form of torture.

[ A PARTY THAT ISN'T UNTIL TWO MONTHS LATER

WHAT DO THEY DO UNTIL THEN. EAT BAD FOOD? ]

[nascens]

[EAT BAD FOOD......... TRY NOT TO CLOG THEIR TOILETS.........]

If death is just going to be a continuation of life, there's not really a point in dying in the first place.

[As if death has a point in general?????]

[preordain]

Mm. They said they are meant to punish us, but I still haven't seen how they're going to do that. You would think the actual torture would start immediately.

[ so far it's just been very annoying ]

[nascens]

The one I spoke to did offer to take me to their torture chamber. How intimate of them.

[Even being hacked to pieces would probably be better than having to deal with some of the people he's trapped with, in his humble opinion.

LIKE HIS FUCKING ROOMMATE.]

[preordain]

[ the hilarity that ryo would switch roommates immediately because that's his meow wow. ]

Did you accept? I'm sure it's better than the jail cell.

[nascens]

[Akira just having to deal with Two Of These Fuckers at the same time. He'll probably be fine unless he starts crying again...]

I'm regretting that I didn't, to be honest.

[preordain]

I'm sure there's time.

Although the one I spoke to didn't actually seem interested in doing their job.

[nascens]

Which one was that? None of them seemed particularly interested in doing anything worthwhile.

[preordain]

Midori. They only seem interested in staying in their room all day.

[nascens]

I can't blame them.

[He too wants to stay in his room all day except Akira's there.]

[preordain]

I don't either, except my room is very loud.

[ itto ]

[nascens]

[HELP.]

So is mine. The fool is crying every damned time I see him.

[AKIRA!!!!]

[preordain]

[ there's a pause. ]

Akira?

[nascens]

[This isn't the usual (pause filled with general "that's rough buddy" vibes) that he's used to when he mentions that Akira is his roommate, so he glances over, arching a brow.]

Yes, that one.

[preordain]

[ he just nods ]

We know each other from home.

[ normally, he would try to keep that a secret but he knows akira has already told people so there's no fuckin point ]

[nascens]

[The way Akira hasn't mentioned it to him yet because he keeps LEAVING THEIR ROOM HALFWAY THROUGH CONVERSATIONS.]

Hm. Now that I'm thinking about it, he did mention a Ryo, which I'm guessing is you.

[Considering he has of course read the profiles and then promptly tossed his phone on his bed and left it there bye forever.]

[preordain]

[ a grimace. ]

What did he say?

[nascens]

Something weird about you crying.

[He said.........so many weird things about crying. And also cried so much.]

[preordain]

Does he not know how to shut his mouth?

[ AKIRA..... the worst is that ryo immediately just Understands ]

[nascens]

[i love this icon so much ALSO ALIEN TO WEIRD SPAM MAN COMMUNICATION......]

I'm amazed that he managed to get even that much out, considering all the crying he was doing. Is he always like this?

[preordain]

Yes. I believe he's what people call an empath?

[ just. so deadpan. ]

He might do it less once he gets more used to you, but it'll still happen every now and then.

[nascens]

[Just FROWNING ABOUT THAT. AN EMPATH??? Sounds fake like the stars. He still hates it here, though.]

How long have you been dealing with it?

[preordain]

Since we were children. But he doesn't really cry in regards to me like he used to.

[ so. akira got used to it. ]

[nascens]

I don't want to spend even five minutes around him, let alone an entire human lifetime's worth.

[Akira will simply never get used to him and Scaramouche will just have to flee every time he starts crying, like an endless cycle of samsara.]
