Aye, it's quite the band we've go amassed here, isn't it? [ leans a bit closer ] Between you me, I think the cookies can't see the difference in anything so long as "meat" is involved.
[ hm... let's walk and talk, molly. off he goes. ]
Tell ye the truth, I wasnae convinced the wish thing was real when it was sold to me. But I figured I didnae have much to lose, so I thought I'd try it. And I'm still not entirely convinced, after everything. So when I say I've got a wish, keep in mind it's not the kind I'd do anything to see granted.
[ that disclaimer aside, he shakes his head ]
But even now I've got two wishes I could make. One's the safe bet, really, stopping a man with the power to destroy our whole planet. The other... [ he looks back up at molly and seems almost sheepish ] It's a selfish thing. About three weeks ago now, right before I landed here, a friend died. And I thought, maybe--a wish could bring her back?
Would you believe I'm in almost exactly the same situation?
[ like. his wish conundrum is nearly identical. ]
... Don't know if it soothes or worries you more, but they said the wishes can be pretty broad. Maybe there's a way to do both, with some clever wording.
[ ... ]
And for what it's worth I don't think there's anything wrong with a bit of selfishness. Sometimes it's whats needed.
... For a friend, or for yourself? Pardon me for asking, it's only... You've said you've died plenty.
[ he doesn't judge either way (and obviously Cannot) but. curious. still, he shakes his head again. kitty ears go flop flop ]
Ach, trust me, I've been plenty selfish throughout my life. This just feels like the kind of thing I should aspire to be selfless about, maybe. [ to do both, though... he does seem like he's considering that. ] Well, it probably won't matter. We were in last before and I doubt losing more members like this will catapult us into first place.
W2 - SUNDAY
How're you holding up?
no subject
WHY IS HE HERE? HE DOESN'T HAVE BLOOD. ]
Ach, well. You know. [ the moogle is holding his arm. ] I've had better days?
[ he is Wet. ]
no subject
You able to get that reattached?
no subject
It doesnae seem too damaged, so it should be doable... Except it might be a wee bit of a pain.
[ considering. one arm. looks at his moogle like why couldnt you have FINGERS ]
no subject
[ frowning too, and then glancing back at the stump where it was wires and electricity and robot stuff. ]
So you're not a catfolk, exactly?
no subject
No, s'alright. Healing magic would work, but painkillers are a wee too common.
[ thinking of how to explain himself when he never explains himself, ever, ]
Not exactly, no. My body's more of a toy if you must break it down like that.
no subject
[ he isnt gonna call him a toy!!! he is a fully realized cat human!! ]
no subject
The body, not the spirit, lad. [ he's fine being a toy! he was designed to be MARKETABLE. he can be a fully realized cat human outside that ]
no subject
[ he is very marketable. ]
Besides, think you're in good company. For the Cookies throw "human" around, think the majority of us are a bit weirder than that.
no subject
no subject
Maybe we've all had enough of meat for the weekend.
no subject
[ narja should have eaten a cookie actually that's their natural state of being. thats me talking not cait ]
I cannae imagine the crowd thrilling for that, either, but maybe that's too optimistic.
no subject
[ i think he did, but remind me. ]
no subject
[ ... at least he's honest about not being too honest ]
