Ritual 31 - Lily

[crittersheep]

[You're pulled into an enclosure--it simultaneously feels alive and inorganic. You're free to move around, though you can't escape. The walls are both papery and velvet, and the only light emitted is that from six grey sheep that sit silently against one of the walls. They each don a greyed out version of your flock's flower sprouting from one eye, and a grey, dripping candle upon their heads.

As for you, you feel a sting--a papercut. You bleed a tiny drop of blood that stretches thin, like a thread. It somehow penetrates the wall, and if you tug on it, you can tell it's connected to something. What though, you're not sure.]

[ tart ,

has not really dealt with lily's healing method all that much personally just because he doesn't really get much opportunity to

so he does take the vial but he just makes a face like charon just randomly handed him a vial full of unknown clear liquid after biting him

like ???????????????????????????????????????? ]

[oh my god]

They're tears. Put them on the injury, I'll figure out how to make some more later.

Re: The Flesh - CW Cannibalism Adjacent

[secondbornsun]

Ya think healing tears'll make up for this?

Rip a piece out of my shoulder after the ritual if it makes you feel better. Any more we both owe to the damn demons, not each other.

[ snorts. frankly speaking he's a horrible enough person that depending on who bit him he'd actually play the joke out a little more for extortion purposes but this is charon and lily so for once he is incidentally taking the high road. not because he likes them but because there's a non-zero chance that a lily will show up on daffodil's side and if he sincerely tries to extort lily they're liable to make a mess of his pots and pans. no thank you ]

Pass. If I bite your shoulder it's gonna be a helluva lot more than that piddly little sliver.

[ so instead he will neg charon's human teeth ]

[wow he didn't ask to be born homo sapiens. huffs]

Well, do what you feel is equivalent if you need to, then. Just take it out of me and leave the rest of Lily out of it.

[ yawns ]

Lighten up, I ain't gonna take vengeance on Lily or whatever. It was just a joke.

[ —pause ]

Not tellin' Biscuit about it either, so if he finds out somehow, it ain't from me.

[--flushes, which probably Tart has never seen him do before]

Thanks. I don't--want to offend. We're just trying not to kill anyone.

[ wait that's a great face. actually this was all worth it. he's got his recompense ]

Mmmhmh. For future reference, Daffodil ain't the grudge holdin' type, 'long as ya swing by after the ritual with some food.

Re: The Flesh - CW Cannibalism Adjacent

[endsjustified]

[god it's true loss of face is so much worse for him than loss of flesh]

Will do.
