The Oracle's Proxy.

roleplay blog for Rien, the Index Nursefather.

[nursefather-oftheindex]

... Ah, that's what the Prescript is referring to. To see that I make an appearance here.

An introduction is in order, as it's only polite. You may call me Rien, a Proxy of the Index, an occupant of a house that I cannot hope to depart from, and... a Nursefather to a daughter with a rebellious streak.

After all, I, like everyone else who's come to the House of Spiders... have already become entangled in it's web, and shall continue to do so as long as this place still stands.

I'm open to questions, should you have any for me.

please do not be weird in my asks and replies. not even for a joke, genuinely.

additionally, while i do accept prescripts as rien, i'd like to ask that they dont be so vague... rien may be smart enough to solve them and carry them out but i'm not....

ooc!! hii call me watcher, and i!! write for rien!!

seriously burnt out. still taking asks and such and will reply when i can. just .. understand that i might not want to respond. please don't send repeated asks

when he's answering asks, assume that he's in the time period after ryoshu left and before he and the other Nursefathers raided the LCE.

sometimes reblogs other posts or puts out shitposts, tagged #sillyposting

@nursefather-oftheindex / STARTER CALL

"A drive, huh?"

You're almost certain Rien wouldn't have agreed to you driving after the arm loss, more concerned with his own safety than how exciting it'd be. Though that's something Rien's always been known for-- he's thinking two, three steps ahead of you and focusing on outcomes as opposed to the process. At least...that's what you think after spending so much time with him, but the joy is overwhelmingly evident upon your features as you dig around for your car keys.

No, not here-- Here? No, Kira shouldn't have 'em she doesn't know how to drive....right? Did you teach her how to drive?

"Where'd ya wanna go? Y'just wanna drive 'round th'city or stop somewhere?"

[nursefather-oftheindex]

"I wouldn't be opposed to you taking a longer drive around before anything I have planned, but I do have a destination in mind." Rien says, seemingly more relaxed than usual. His shoulders back, hands resting in his pants pockets as opposed to one always within reach of his pager.

"A shopping district a little ways away from where we reside. Lining the streets are toy stores and figurine collections on display; the sort you like to procure. Perhaps a smaller collection that what you've amassed, but I'd have... hoped for it to be at least something you might be interested in checking."

There's only so much time Rien had left before he had to return to his role. At the very least... this break allowed him time to entertain his own passing whims. He was still grateful towards Matthias for the ridiculous tasks he's made him cooperate with, that he's decided... for once, willingly indulging in the things the other man appeared to have enjoyed.

He's really not... the best at knowing these things, or engaging in camaraderie. It's a little... ridiculous that he's even trying.

A child sized humanoid walks over and pats his head, "Isss okay?"

Her voice was soft, melodic almost. Kind.

She desired nothing beyond asking if he was alright.

Her eye was pale and body darked old leather, the source unknown. She couldn't be more than 4 foot. Probably a little less.

"... Yes? I'm alright." He'd allowed himself to get pat on the head, having knelt down to get a closer look at the person who approached him.

How strange. How did a child end up here?

Within the district of n-corp, draw movement on at least 35 pages of a blank notebook, leave it in a public place.

.. A simple slow moving walk cycle, depicted on thirty five pages of a notebook I purchased for this very task. It's not... particular well drawn, but should still convey movement if you had flipped through the notebook quickly enough.

I left behind, in-between the merchandise set on the shelves in a general store in District 14.

Something like this would normally toeing the line on breaking a Taboo, but it does require the "recording" to be more "true-to-life," and vivid enough to count as a violation— I should be fine, even if I was the one to produce the drawings in the notebook.

Certainly, if my artistic skills are not... anything to boast about.

living in memory,

right where you left me

[nursefather-oftheindex]

Big R, do you like birds?????? You LOOK like a bird🫵!

Don't call me that.

... And, it can be concluded that I do like birds, if only because I've no reason to dislike them. But in the event that you asked if I had to name a favourite, I don't believe I could produce a satisfactory answer.

I’ve finally finished Canto 9.

[nursefather-oftheindex]

*Decorates your hair with rainbow hair clips* bonita

".. Right. My hair should look fine without this, so if you don't mind..." With careful hands, Rien removes each and every one of the hair clips. He didn't even care to see how his hair had looked when it was done up.

[nursefather-oftheindex]

hello Mister Rien. it must be so hard being forced to do things both by the prescripts and the anons. So i have a question. if you could make the anons do one thing what would it be? Anything at all.

... An absurd hypothetical scenario, when the faceless masses typically disregard anything I may ask them, and continue to do as they please.

Instances of that include leaving me unwanted things, living or otherwise, for one. Killing, or otherwise fatally wounding me, another.

Does it abide by your question if I were to simply request the aforementioned masses to refrain from causing such situations, going forward?

First, immediately ground and add the roots of yellow wither grass within a century of harvest from the mounds; For aetherial lifewood ashes, at the first sight of darkening stir it before incorporation, but it must be first infused with a serpent's scales; as for decayed sulphurs, use the ashes of the tormented dead that has experienced four seasons amply but jabbering daily, but titanium spoon must be used to mix the ingredients. Then, add Whale oil extracted from the Murky Whale; as for the blue-blood of a Lingzhi, it must first be drawn from a child without making a laceration, avoid eye contact, and maintain viscosity level above 80%. Prepare a ex-zyme for only less than 12 days after production. Preserve it in a vessel prior to pulverization, then inject it at a temperature equal to or below 20 celsius.

th. the recipe for the cuckoo bird bolus?

[nursefather-oftheindex]

can you show off the cool stick thingy for a bit... I wanna hear about it it looks so cool (⁠・⁠o⁠・⁠)

..."Stick thingy"...?

Are you... referring to Caduceus? It's the only thing on my person that resembles a stick, but it can change it's form as it needs to with the liquid inside, which has been pointed out to resemble ink.

Assuming I'm correct, I don't believe I'd be able to show off its capabilities and the forms it takes; despite the item itself belonging to me, it doesn't usually... answer to my whims. It would take the shape of a myriad of weapons when I supposedly need it to, as opposed to when I want it to.

It's up for debate as to whether or not it can be described as "cool," but I have to agree that its novelty would be fascinating to many.

[nursefather-oftheindex]

Do you know what's coming your way?

More annoyances, I assume. That's generally something to be expected when it comes to answering questions with an ominous tone, setting up for something terrible.

Like this one, for instance.

The butterfly is here once again, with a cookie in its grip. However nobody is nearby, seems like this is a small gift from one to another. Enjoy the cookie.

It's a little surprising to watch a butterfly lift something that's almost equal to its size, somehow strong enough to carry the cookie over until Rien pulls it away.

He nods towards the butterfly as it drifts away— He appreciates the gift.

What’s the worst prescript you’ve received so far?
