[WELL. He's not particularly looking for Uriel because he's actually not keen on running into any of these four, currently. But eventually, sometime much later in the evening after Uriel's stopped being dead, their paths can cross! YEEHAW.
He gives her a somewhat cautious look, glancing briefly to see if she has any injuries left. He also doesn't say anything just yet. A PUNK.]
[ nope, she's all healed up!! how dare dying relieve you of juicy injuries, such a damn shame. however, when he glances at her, he can see her have a moment with a look full of CONTEMPT ( /NEGATIVE ) as she looks out to demons and humans alike out in the distance.
but her expression is more composed when she sees him, though the somewhat cautious look is replied with a raise of her brow. you good boyo? ]
[WHYOWAKOFESKO WHY IS IT NEGATIVE IS THERE A CONTEMPT (POSITIVE). HELP. Anyway he thinks she's very valid for that look because they all deserve it, though it's also an immediate tip-off that something Is Not Right, considering he's never seen her wear that kind of expression before.
Still, satisfied enough to see she took the Practical Option, he just nods. His expression shifts, now more placid.]
He came to find me while the trial was still ongoing. I was told about where you ended up - or some of it, anyway.
[He knows Chandra and he is sure Chandra left things out the stupid eggplant binch.]
[ NO BECAUSE YOU WERE MAKING FUN OF IT LIKE YALL ASSUMING EVERY NEGATIVE EMOTION IS CONTEMPT SO I WAS BEING FUNNY. ]
Then I wonder if he told you that we met with you. [ more than once. ] We also encountered another man, with pale blue hair who seemed quite focused on handling corpses.
[ yea well she isn't a bitch and she'll mention a lot if she feels like it. but also her voice is full of CONTEMPT TALKING ABOUT DOTTORE. THIS MAN IS SO BENEATH HER, HE IS AN INSECT. ]
[HELP DON'T EXPECT ME TO REMEMBER ANYTHING i should have cursed chandra with contempt (positive) and made jan figure it out like the fancy cowboys.
Also he thinks she is so valid for this contempt in particular. He doesn't even know his own future spoilers yet, but Dottore has done nothing at all to endear himself to him over the many, many fuckin years they've known each other and worked closely together.]
The Doctor, no doubt. But yes, he did mention that. He mentioned the Furnace, and that Dottore seemed to be running experiments on the victims of the plague there. I can't at all say it'd be uncharacteristic of him to do exactly that, were he really there at the time.
[ scaramouche like the sickos meme with uriel just full of contempt like 'yessss YESSSS hahaha YESSSS' ]
That's right. I'm sure our experiences would be much different in comparison to Lavi and Four, so it would be worth hearing the side if you're curious to know what they went through in your world.
[ the doctor.... disgusting, her nose wrinkles a little at the thought ] A lot of the victims ended up being people we knew, I'm sure as some twisted fucked method.
[HELP yeah he thinks it's a fine and wonderful emotion to have! He is filled with it!]
Mm... I'll find them later. They're both going to be headaches in different ways right now, though.
[He doesn't know Lavi got AGGRO BOMBED and that Four is a hero experiencing ennui. Once again Uriel is so valid for her Doctor Disgust, he would agree. He also just nods at that, thoughtful and considering.]
Unsurprisingly, Chandra left their exact involvement out. I'm not surprised it was something like that, though. I do believe the only point of these excursions is to do harm to "newcomers" as some sort of induction.
I can only imagine they may be going through some things as well.
[ SHE HAS NO IDEA HOW LAVI AND FOUR ARE AFFECTED. her like damn i get insane CONTEMPT and insane FEAR OF BETRAYAL NOW AND THEN with painful mems but that's just me i Guess ]
That would make more sense. I wouldn't say our excursion before this one came off as a good example of what to prepare for. I hadn't even realized this one had been fashioned with your world in mind until Chandra told me, and we can into you on more than one occasion.
[THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE SELF-SACRIFICIAL and also when Four goes off the string.]
Four might fare better, at least.
[He's saying this on the basis that Lavi is more squishy and attached to others, but he does not know that Four is so extremely unhinged and fragile like glass. Damb.]
It seems like the one that we went on was an exception, certainly... [He's FROWNING AT THAT.] He did mention that as well, though. That you met The Balladeer and Kabukimono.
[Talking about your past selves like they are different people: normal behavior.]
[ yeah well consider rather than self-sacrificial she just loves and cares a lot. totally different btw ]
Given the memory I have from her, I don't know... I'd be a bit worried for her.
[ shouldn't you be worried about her now? no, why would she that's disgusting she's full of contempt rn ]
I wonder why that one was so different... then again, normally it is a maximum of four taken away. [ it's as if she doesn't realize a player snatched four living and four dead for a one time experience. ] That's right. ...You've really changed since those times. Or should I say you've grown?
[ idk that seems normal behavior ] Some of the differences were a bit as obvious as if I were to compare me to my other self of the 999th turn.
[HELP sweet Uriel. He just hums a little at that, though. While he doesn't lash out at Four, he still does not Like her, so he's just thinking "okay then, perish" about Four to himself. HELP AGAIN.
His shoulders roll into a slope of a shrug at that, though.]
Who knows? I guess those personal demons have said before not to expect anything, so maybe they decide to throw pattern-breakers in every so often to keep us on our toes.
[Or maybe siz is just out there...........watching. Waiting. He also arches a brow at that, and his expression is a little sour.]
Changed is more accurate. [He doesn't think he grew, he just gained depression after defeat which knocked his ass down a few pegs. HE DOESN'T LIKE IT. He de-grew. He devolved... But he doesn't want to linger on any of that because it's hateful, so instead:]
[ imagine four tells the rest of the group yeah i made everyone else suffer, uriel like `what the fuck, you bitch` my FEAR and CONTEMPT ]
I hope we are not expected to deal with these excursions even after the party happens.
[ cause god Damn that was annoyng. THE FEEL OF CONTEMPT ]
You can consider it an alternate timeline? Another version of myself went through an entirely different life than what I presently did. It led her to become an Outer God, a lot stronger.. unpredictable than that a Constellation.
[ is she implying that version of herself is a lot stronger than she is now? she sure is. ]
[But like, he wouldn't be surprised if it did still happen sometimes anyway considering how many GLITCHES hell apparently has. Satan really does his best. But he's also just like ??? because as FAR AS HE'S AWARE, DIVERGENT TIMELINES DON'T EXIST IN HIS WORLD.]
Is something like that normal, where you're from? Alternate timelines. You aren't the first to mention it. [Why do so many people come from such weird places, damb.] What's an Outer God?
I hadn't been aware of it myself, not until I met another version of myself. But apparently, they happen alongside all other timelines, branching off toward different endings. The other me, the Living Flame, had come from the 999th turn specifically. One of my comrades has regressed over numerous turns and kept his memory of each life beforehand.
[ it's A MESS ] As how I knew it, normally they are gods of other worlds, eldritch-like beings whose forms can resemble anything, yet nothing.
Sounds like a sight to behold. [(biblical angel uriel voice) be not afraid...] We don't have anything exactly like that, but a thing or two that comes close.
[do u think about how columbina is likely some sort of eldritch biblical angel creature thing. i do. the harbingers are a problem.]
Somehow, things "outside" of the world always have a greater amount of power. Maybe because they can exist outside of the limits of the world itself.
[ harbingers are insane but yknow... thats how they get u. give me the dam lore mihoyo. TELL US MORE OF THE HARBINGERS ]
Given that their mere presence will have mortals collapsing, and Constellations in general fear them. Outer Gods are not so easy to stand up against.
[ she nods to those final exchange of words because, yeah. he's right. ]
They are only permitted to appear when Probability is expended over the limits in the first place. Which gives them the benefit of how much power they have available to them based on that amount.
