WHO: Some Sheep
WHERE: Pasture
WHEN: 105 Evening

[As the sun sets, you may be just going about your business, maybe looking for Blossom, maybe patrolling, maybe doing other shit simultaneously because time is fake!! OR maybe you notice a pigtailed weed, Queen, experimentally slicing her hand to see what happens and then. . .poof!

Ruh-roh!!

The two chat about SOMETHING for a couple minutes, before the little demon baps its hooves together. Before you can escape into the safety of your barns, all who were around are suddenly swept up, pulled in the middle of the pasture. . .with each of you at a podium.

You cannot move from the podium, but the podiums themselves can move around kinda like those. Moving scooter things in cities. beep beep. You can't leave the area tho.

The little demon speaks up:

Alright, maggots! Monomaton's here, and I've just got a simple question for ya!

What's the value of each of your mortal lives?

[ Between Lethe and Scarab's efforts, his arm stays stable and pain-free. Sinks back in the couch with a heavy sigh ]

If I can't apologize for this, then there's no way you can. It's not your fault you weren't there either.

Re: AND THE REST

[mykidisthebest]

Fair enough. How about we both avoid apologizing when we can.

[fidgets with his hands like he's gonna start fussing, but then he takes a seat next to him instead]

Is it too soon to ask what happened?

[ if he's on Ananke's good side then he'll lean over against him, but either way he stiffens up at the question, frowning uneasily ]




We had to rank ourselves from most to least valuable.

Re: AND THE REST

[mykidisthebest]

[he is on Ananke's good side specifically so he can be leaned on :(]

...And you were ranked low...? But something like that is arbitrary.

[spinebuddyandme]

[ shakes his head, shifting like he wants to cross his arms and then awkwardly re-settling his hand in his lap ]

I ranked myself low. And—it didn't even matter 'cause someone summoned a demon at the last second who changed the rules. Pick one person to die or let the lowest ranked...y'know.

So me and Odin both volunteered. I think it split the, uh, "death" so we both got to survive, but...

[ gestures meekly at his lack of arm ]

[mykidisthebest]

[swears under his breath]

Those damn demons...Well, obviously missing an arm isn't great. But you're alive. So I can't help but think you made the right call in a difficult situation.

It'll take a few days to grow a limbus arm. The timing tends to vary. Will you be able to manage okay for that long?

[spinebuddyandme]

[ lets out a breath, relaxing ]

For a few days...probably. Especially if I'm taking it easy.

[mykidisthebest]

We'll find a way to keep you busy. --If you need one! Sometimes it's nice to take your mind off of things.

[spinebuddyandme]

I'll take any distraction you got as long as it's got nothing to do with bugs. No offense, Scarab

[mykidisthebest]

No bugs. Got it. Sorry, Scarab.

We could watch a movie or play a board game like chess. I don't know how easy it is to use a controller with one hand, so video games might be more frustrating than fun...but we could try that too if you want.

[spinebuddyandme]

Sticking to board games and stuff sounds easier. But, y'know you don't have to go that far? You and Charon still have a lot've work to do, don't you? You can leave us with some movies for a while.

[mykidisthebest]

We're always a little busy around here. That's no reason not to be with you when you're dealing with something difficult. If you'd prefer your space then I'm happy to give it to you, of course! But, uhm...if it was me, I'd want company, I guess? And I'll probably feel restless if I can't see you. So just spending time with each other feels better.
