You can't just put a word and my name together and have it make sense...

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Nope.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... still don't.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

I don't miss anyone.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Well, what will I do in this hypothetical? Fight you, die because Lightners have an inherent advantage over me, and then have Castle Town ruined anyway?

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... You're a Lightner. I don't have any say in what you do to them.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... By telling you what your options are, there is something wrong with me?

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

There's no particular reason. That's just how it is for us.

[ Sighing. ] The prophecy's determinism isn't swayed by what we all think of it.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... I'm really not vampiric at all.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ Their eyes narrow. ] It's not something to take lightly, Susie.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

You're thinking of a vampire, Kris.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... My purpose is inescapable. To defy it is to damn this world more than it already has been.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... I'd prefer not to. [ They look away. Their expression is not angry anymore. It looks almost tired. ] You... could push me like anyone else. I'm no less a Darkner, after all. But I don't really want to.

000

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

That... isn't an option for me.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Then don't. It's your choice. You're a Lightner, after all.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ shrug. ] It's the nature of this world, and me.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ Grumbling. ] You spent so much time goading me.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... That's just my usual.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

You wanted to test it. That's a way to do that.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

000

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... Are you happy now?

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

If you're so determined to find out, you can find a Darkner in my Dark World and test it. [ Very odd for Ralsei to say. ]

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... I'm not mad. It's to be expected.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... I guess so. I wouldn't have any married couples to reference. Except maybe Lanino and Elnina.

000

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

No, it's fine. I get it.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ cw: self harm. ]

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ It seems like for a second they might. ] [ But then, they pull back. And, abruptly, while one fire goes out, they turn the fire on themself. Specifically, the back of their other hand. It singes the fur there, and they wince at the sting. ] ... There. My point, proven. I'm not fire resistant.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Like fighting. You argue. But you seem to like it.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

I guess it would be. I imagine you prefer your own.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... I've seen them around. It's strange.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ Now, the flames are practically in Kris's face. They aren't touching, though. ] Do you think you're better than me?

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

By refusing to hurt myself??

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

She's not a jerk at all. In fact, she's too nice sometimes.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Hate what? Serving humans? [ Getting closer... ]

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

You can't miss her energy. She's... very optimistic.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ Approaching. Those flames haven't gone out. ] How isn't it your place? You're a human, aren't you? By all means, feel free to state your opinion.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... Yyyes, though kind of aggressively so.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Is that so? You're different, then.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... Well, in my Dark World, you are.

100

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... I'm done with this conversation.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

So has just about everyone else here.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... You Lightners are so frustrating.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Is it? [ They raise their paws, which now have fire flickering in their palms. ] Do you want me to like serving you?

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

My Kris is rather aggressive, though.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

[ Fire huffs past their nostrils. ] ... I've never heard that VOICE CLIP before.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Wh— are you psychoanalyzing me? It's just my purpose, there's nothing else to it.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

You might be onto something with this one.

Ralsei. @nightmareprayer.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

... I understand it to be your method of communication.
