"When was the last time you slept?"

what a question, and not one that he has any idea on how to answer. " the netherworld's flow of time isn't the same as the material world. " jingran turns his hand over, examining the bandage that covers the injuries on the palm of his hand. " sometimes .. you get lost in it. " and when he is back in this reality, lost souls reach out to him, begging for aid. " and .. it is hard to sleep when it is noisy. "

" have you ever seen the other side ? " a cryptic question. one with meaning. despite his choice of serious topic, jingran is leaned against the back of his seat, appearing totally at ease.

dealing with death on a frequent basis has left him numb to how people typically feel about the discussion. there is often discomfort involved. sadness. some have even become inconsolable, angry, volatile. most often than not, at him, as if he is the problem, and not fate itself that should be blamed. after all, he is not the one who has stolen life from their loved ones, from them.

in fact, he fights against what they curse out. but, he understands. sometimes, logic leaves once your soul begins to cross over. sometimes, all you are left with is that gnawing feeling that something just isn't right. a finger cannot be placed on the source. so, frustration answers when he calls.
