[ Our zombie exercism...

Marcoh climbs out of the grave with a shiny green gem, wow!
]

All good here, looks like.

Yes. This was in there.

[ Though he doesn't get the sense that it does anything. It's just shiny... hopes he's not grave-robbing. Marcoh's emotional state is also generally extremely calm, relatively steady line especially right now.

He holds up the gem... and a Sound Plays.

...Sure. He feels strangely successful.

[ Sentimental value ... ? ]

Ay. Am I getting the same sense from it that you do?

[ Speak to lost souls...? Well, it's supposedly more like eavesdrop on lost souls. Imagine it's like Superhell and all we hear is disaster and yelling about people's ankles. ]

Would they know we are hearing them?

[ Ideally they'd somehow be able to hear back some kind of concrete message, something that really confirms and assuages their worries. ]

Ideally, we would be able to bring back something comforting for everyone, them and us.

Ay. Just knowing they are safe, would be good.

[ If they're talking about something stupid then well. That's maybe a sign that things are okay enough. Hell, being able to speak at all probably points to the idea that they're stable enough and alive in some sense? ]

...If there is somebody you want to hear again, you can choose them, Euphausia.

[ He didn't want to lean onto either way too hard but. He was personally thinking Charlie or maybe Elysia, dearly-missed. ]

I think that would be a good option. Also good to know that even though she has been lost the longest, she is still there.

[ Whoa. He peers in... ]

It's Brimstone.

[ And... ah. It kind of feels like something personal they're listening in on... oops... but he glances at Eupha in the midst of it, brows furrowing. There's small pulses of confusion, curiosity. Wariness, too. ]

They are talking about his... past?

I was thinking the same. It doesn't sound like something Brimstone would talk about so long ago.

[ This sounds like something he'd sooner blow himself up w0 than discuss with anyone that fast. ]

Wherever they are, do you think they were also being thrown into the funhouse?

[personal profile] boxcar 2025-03-11 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Then... that is a good sign, isn't it?

They don't sound different than how I remember them, mostly. For being "lost", they sound pretty whole.

You're right.

[ Even he manages to give a half-smile for this. ]

Good thing we looked here. I'm sure there will be plenty of people happy to hear about this.

I think Jiaoqiu would get some relief, yes.

[ He blinks at her at the gratitude. There's a soft blanket of polite fondness for Euphausia, with a small stem of guilt underneath, but also gratefulness returned nonetheless. ]

It's no trouble, it was a good decision.

[ Oh, but. Looks at this rupee. ]

... Did you want this?

I don't feel strongly about it. If you were more interested than I am, I think it'd be better for it to go to someone who appreciates it better.

[personal profile] boxcar 2025-03-12 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
I am.

[ His unsure feelings give way to some mild relief.

You found 10 rupees!!! Victory fanfare 2.
