* what happened to my league, dude.

* starting to realize i'm not really as in shape or as good looking as other people in either the light or dark world * so anyway who want me

100

* oh you uh * you look good! very roundabout way of saying you look good

* * so that's why they're called worker bees because damn girl WORK

* oh! no no, it's cool doggo and i are friends we do this to each other all the time! * i wouldn't do it if it genuinely got to him * but yes it is certainly *your* beeswax, miss!

010

* bees have love in their heart that's what they've *got*

011

* of course girl and that's YOUR business! * plus its just funny to tease doggo

120

* have you never seen a bee before

* doggo you can't just ask bee women that...

121

* i'm not a pervert thought i'm very ethical

000

[[ a solo is # incoming i just need to stop getting distracted ]]

030

* still... maybe that guy had a point. maybe finding middle-ground will at least make things a bit more bearable. * ... * [ You lay down on your bed... ] * [ ...and close your eyes. ]

000

[ NC ] * elly won't take my SOUL we're trucies * [ 🩵 She also thinks I'm annoying. ] * ("You are.")

010

* [ 🩵 . . . ] * [ 🩵 WHY WOULD THE DOCTOR TELL HER THAT!? ] * ("I don't know, I think it'd be funny if she succeeded.")

010

* oh. uh, sorry about that * if i dug up some uncomfortable stuff, that is

100

* ok... well, thanks * it's a place to start at least * is there a... reason you're stuck like this though?

100

* [ 🩵 Wait I can do that? ] * ... * look the only thing stopping me from squishing this thing like a bug is because without it i uh. yknow * die dead. * so if you come up with a solution to that then we MIGHT have a deal.

100

* [ 🩵 DON'T ] * yeah no i'm not that dumb or desperate * nobody in this town who wants a human SOUL is up to anything good

100

* [ 🩵 Yeah be nice to me for once. ] * ("You're literally never nice to me!") * ...ok * what if that's. hard.

100

* thank you! * [ 🩵 STOP TRYING TO AUCTION ME OFF! ] * honestly though its mostly just kind of annoying me so. i know i'll die without it but is there any way to get it to uh * make it not meddle so much?

100

* oh * ... * so you don't want mine then?

100

* oh it's another of that weird kid my SOUL gets antsy around! * [ 🩵 Don't say it like that. ]

000

* i'm guessing this is our guy. so uh... good thing he can still walk and talk, eheh. * [ You laugh weakly. ] * ... * i'll behave though i promise-

000

* i'll be honest, you might know more than me. though i have been doing some snooping around town concerning uh- * -well. all the weird stuff happening. there's some prophecy or whatever but honestly if you want to ask anyone about it? * [ You point towards the bonfire. ]

100

* [ Well. There's no hiding that you know *something* now, given the look on Doggo's face. While you stammer with your words you're interrupted by Ralsei shouting. ] * [ More of that darkness too. You can't help but glower as the prince leaves through the bonfire. ] * ...so.

100

* don't be afraid to take it easy. there are people who care about you, after all... * [ You smile a little. ] * ...y'know, like me!

000

* but... i wouldn't be lying if i said i was worried about you elly. i want to help you in any way i can, but, i guess... * ...when it comes to what a human SOUL can do, i don't want that kind of power consuming you * so just- if you feel yourself hitting a breaking point...

* yeah it's. got a pretty rigid mindset * i would say something meaner but... hard to when its' the two of us talking. * i... wouldn't say what you're doing is "stupid". you've been through a lot, and it's only natural to want to try to make right the wrongs done to you

* ...it kind of felt like someone tapped me on the shoulder, and now you're hugging me * [ . . .As much as it would be more beneficial to this timeline for you to stay ignorant, you do manage to connect the dots rather quickly. ] * someone else... said something. what happened?

100

* oh! * [ You're not expecting the hug, returning it in an awkward fashion. ] * uh... sorry, i don't remember all that much. * [ Saying that makes your brow furrow. ] * we were talking, i was worried about you because of all this new stuff, then...

100

* [ Then, for a brief moment, your head and arms go slack. You stand to attention quickly with a horrified look on your face. ] * ... * elly? * wh- what's that... look for?

100

* 🩵 ". . ." * [ You stand there, unamused. ] * [ . . .Though their acknowledgement of you causes your hands to twitch slightly. ] * 🩵 ". . .Stars tend to shine the brightest right before they fizzle out into nothing but gas and dust." * 🩵 "So we'll see how long your supernova lasts for."

100

* 🩵 "I am taking on the role of observer of this reality after all. While this vessel insists on breaking its' so-called "shackles", getting fully involved in this story will only end in catastrophe." * 🩵 "If you're in the business of catastrophe, try to find someone like-minded."

100

* 🩵 "Yet still, you truly have no clue what you are toying with." * 🩵 "...Though I suppose if you keep pushing, keep being DETERMINED... something will have to give way to you eventually." * 🩵 ". . .I refuse to hasten that process however."

100

* 🩵 "Now if only your body was actually made to hold all of that strength. You carry the very culmination of another person's being with you, one that /will/ vie for control sooner rather than later if you try to use any of its' power."

100

* 🩵 ". . ." * [ You lean in close, continuing to make eye-contact with Elly as you maintain your placid expression. ] * 🩵 "I'm sure you are, in this moment. With all of what is coursing through you right now you are certainly very strong."

100

* 🩵 ". . .Telling you anything more would simply be a waste of precious time. You're more likely to rip your own body apart before you find even the floor of the power you've stolen." * 🩵 " Especially since, chances are, that lone vessel is still out there somewhere."

100

* 🩵 "-a certain amount of time before it ultimately expires." * 🩵 "...yet that's not all DETERMINATION is capable of. It's capable of so much more than that." * 🩵 "Yet despite having a human SOUL, you're still a Monster. So. . ."

100

* 🩵 "It's something that all human SOULs have. They're comprised of it. A force that's unlike anything you Monsters have access to." * 🩵 "It's why when humans die, or lose their SOULs, their bodies will persist after death. Why a human SOUL is able to persist outside of its' vessel for-"

100

* [ You don't move a single muscle at the empty threat. Your expression doesn't change at all, instead you simply wait for Elly to calm down before opening your mouth again. ] * 🩵 ". . .Do you know about DETERMINATION, Elly?"
