[she's out here at night wearing a cheap wig while being menaced by spider skeletons.]

But spiders don't have bones!

[trifocal]

[ honestly valid, eupha is also mystified at this. ]

Could it be some strange new species?

[sacredpath]

A bone spider? It's native to heaven?

[trifocal]

Well... maybe it had more on the bones before it became a skeleton?

[ she has not realized it's fake. ]

[sacredpath]

I don't know why heaven has these... skeleton spiders that attack us. Does that make sense to you?

[trifocal]

Th, they attack us?

[sacredpath]

[she just assumed they would... ]

I suppose they have not done so yet, but they don't look friendly.

[trifocal]

True... if they were alive, they would surely be dangerous monsters.

Though, I wonder what has caused them to come to such a state. Perhaps they were picked clean by a predator, or the soft tissue harvested for food, or made as an offering?

[sacredpath]

Compellingly dark. Yes, I think that must be what happened.

[trifocal]

W-was it dark? I wasn't trying to be...

[sacredpath]

That was a compliment, don't worry. It's an interesting thought.

[trifocal]

Oh...?

[ confused. ]

Thank you?

[sacredpath]

You're very welcome.

[cute.]

Would you like to join me and explore a bit? Be quite careful what you eat, lest you wish us to have to find you a wig as well.

[trifocal]

I would be happy to! [ wait. ] Something wrong with the food?

[sacredpath]

Well, I'll answer that question with another question. Do you think Anders and I make a nice couple? Because I don't.

[trifocal]

[ she starts nodding yes and then very quickly changes to shaking her head no. the correct answer was no? ok. ]

You mean to say that you were under a spell?

[sacredpath]

Exactly. A very frightening one.

[eupha... your taste...]

[trifocal]

Oh... I am sorry that I did not realize sooner. I used to be able to see such things with ease...

[sacredpath]

No need to apologize.

[actually yes need, it's insulting to think she'd fall in love with anders.]

I simply wish to prevent the same fate from befalling others.
