❝ — shut up. i have no need to hear the lies of a false god. mind what you say, you clown. ❞
eyebrows furrow as she continues to stare, uncaring for whether or not it would be considered ‘rude’, or that her biting words would surprise most ( but clearly not this jester, unusual as he was ). he is strange, sirin thinks, and it isn’t just his clothing. from a glance, the man appeared to be human, but when examined closer, she sees he is a mixing pot of different, distinctive energies. there is something human within, a trace of humanity potent enough to make her stomach lurch, but only a fragment buried beneath other murkier, inhuman auras that were overpowering in comparison to any lingering mortality.
the voice in her head remains silent, the whispers of her soul muted where they otherwise would sing of her god’s desires ( how she wishes she could ask her god for guidance ), and sirin knows she must find her own answers. ❝ … you live next to me, and so i’ve been wondering — what are you? you’re not human. ❞
“Goodness gracious, what sharp words! You wound me so.” But all their tone seems to convey is giddiness and mocking, no movement of real surprise found in those dark eyes. There’s sweet irony in being called anything close to a false god, for all the numerous divinities they’ve sewn into their Saint Graph, devoured whole or not. What a joke - a hardly laughable one at that.
From the mouth of babes indeed.
“Hmmm? Hmmm! Huhu, a good question. For conversation sake, let us skip over the unnecessary details and say... Nnn, yes, I am something like a ghost. Or maybe like a curse.” Or a caricature, or a shadow. Perspective depends wholly on the observer as to what he really is ( and who knows, truly? Not even he does, or cares to these days ). There’s something sharp in the way Limbo smiles; the point of a canine shown in a momentary flash. But it’s all in good humour, or the closest a thing like he can some to. “A thing once human, but only vaguely so, and less so now. Does that suffice as an answer?”
