[nodding at marcoh back, coming over to him.]

...Marcoh. How are you?

[this was a bad weekend, obviously. and her thoughts are reflecting that, vague concern.]

From:

boxcar

I've been better.

[ Honestly enough. His thoughts are kind of a dull static but there is one floating thought that makes it past. She's still here. That's good... ]

From:

sacredpath

[It's good that you're here, too.]

...I don't really know what to say to help. It's all awful, isn't it? There are cats, if you would like to see them.

From:

boxcar

Don't worry. I will find a way, one way or another.

[ He's going to force himself to be fine with his two bare hands if he's gotta. ]

An awful lot of animals lately, aren't there...?

From:

sacredpath

[that's the way to do it.]

It feels like we deserve cute animals after everything, doesn't it?

From:

boxcar

...

[ I don't know if that actually solves anything, but... ]

Sure, hard to say no to some cute and innocent critters.

From:

sacredpath

Of course it doesn't solve anything, Marcoh.

[rudely answering his thought out loud.]

Come, then.

[dragging his ass to go pet some cats.]

From:

boxcar

...I didn't mean it like that.

[ Not that it's easy to really mean much when you're just thinking idle stray thoughts, and sometimes they just get broadcasted out. He gets dragged out to the cafe... ]

You like animals too, right?

[ How is the Owlbear who is most definitely around? ]

From:

sacredpath

[listen the owlbear appeared in every started i made last week. but he is probably playing with the corgis right now.]

It's a little embarrassing to admit, but I'm very fond of them.

From:

boxcar

[ Don't eat them Owlbear. ]

Everybody likes a person that likes animals.

[ The one thing apparently everyone here can agree on... animals good. ]

From:

sacredpath

[the owlbear loves dogs his best friend is scratch ;; he would not hurt them]

Lady Shar does not, but that's alright. I don't care much what she thinks.

From:

boxcar

[ Oh I'm so happy for them... sweet Scratch. ]

It sounds like you've changed your mind a lot.

From:

sacredpath

Yes. I don't really like the person I would be if I kept following her. I want to be able to pet a cat and not feel as though I'm a failure for it.

From:

boxcar

...

I didn't really want to speak out against your faith, but I think this is a good development for you.

[ When she talked about having to smite people she didn't want to... ]

From:

sacredpath

Oh?

[slightly amused. You can speak out against people's faith sometimes, you know.]

No, I think - even when I first came here, I had stopped believing in any of it. I just didn't want to say so outloud just yet.

From:

boxcar

Just don't want to be rude about what people believe.

Was dyeing your hair a part of it too?

[ Lady of Darkness? ]

From:

sacredpath

[It's a little embarrassing to admit, but...]

Yes. I wanted to do something to cement my decision to break from Shar. There was a Selûnite cleric who wore her hair like this, and I thought... if I no longer look like a Sharran, then I can no longer pretend to be one.
