I see... [He does not see, since that does seem like such a wildly important thing to forget, but he also just assumes this is a lie that he's wont to let go of instead of pressing for more.]
...Well, I hope that you can at least take comfort in some of the beliefs you find while you're here, then. My god is also very benevolent and kind, and would certainly smile upon you even if you belong to another path.
[ Their shoulders ease a little as the conversation seems to move on rather than prodding for more. Even though he isn't too sure how to respond to that.
Comfort in some of the beliefs... ]
Some deities do seem to be really nice like that. [ (...) ] What kind of beliefs do you follow?
[Just a little guy with a little ominous bracket buddy.......]
They do... I've heard of quite a few since arriving here, in fact. There's something heartening about it. [Like Shadowheart and her loving and totally normal god!]
Ah, but my faith celebrates humanity and places emphasis on fairly classic tenets. Love, respect, diligence... The god that I follow is very appreciative of the spectrum of emotion and is certainly more accepting than some of the other deities I've heard of. As long as one is the type of person who does good within the world, that alone is enough to earn my god's blessing.
[ It could honestly be worse but I'm being nice. ]
Hm.. there's plenty as is with one world, so I imagine with multiple there's even more to hear about. [ With varying cultural differences and so forth. But they remain quiet as Lucas shares, because they're good at this! The listening thing. ]
The spectrum of emotion? [ A curious tilt, listening... before nodding. ] Has their.. blessing done anything? For those blessed by them?
That does seem to be the case... [So many worlds, so little time! Except so much time, actually. Until they find they're on a deadline for redemption sorting?? SURE.]
But yes, in the sense that every emotion is valued and cherished. [Even the ugly...] Yes to that, as well! I've received a very fortuitous blessing, myself.
What kind of blessing was it? [ (...) ] If.. that's okay to ask?
[ Doesn't feel right to not offer something in return though. ]
The Change deity was well known for being too lazy to really do much but.. I think if they wanted to, it would be able to do at least one thing to help?
[All of the followers just like that's just how this fuckin god is...]
Yes. [A nod! A bright smile! He loves his god very much.] Deities in general do seem to do a lot of watching, but I think it's grand when they also take action alongside it.

[ Maybe. ]
no subject
Oh, yes, of course. My sister's health was restored during a very crucial moment in her life.
[AMEN! GOD IS GOOD!!! But also fucking help what the heck kinda deity is too lazy to do much except for like one thing maybe.]
I've never heard of a lazy deity before...
no subject
[ It's surprising to hear. Because... yeah. Sometimes a deity is just so fcken lazy and their followers know that. ]
That's how the Change deity was. Would rather.. watch than really do anything.

[No offense to the Change deity...]
no subject
Mm.. do you think us being here has to do with this place's God then?
[ Honestly full offense to the Change deity, fuck that god ]
no subject
Perhaps...? Though it could also be any number of other gods, I suppose. [A little wistfully:] I would love to meet my own.
no subject
With varying gods, it'd be weird for all of us to end up here though, wouldn't it?
[ Who knows maybe Lucas will be able to meet god-sama... ]
no subject
It is very strange, yes... Though they seem a bit disorganized, so perhaps a mistake was made...?
[A bit of a clerical error on the way to the pearly gates.]
no subject
..It definitely had to be a mistake.
[ sounds so confident of this ]
no subject
[All of them just shaking hands like girl where ARE WE.]
no subject
[ Though, maybe it was more of a no afterlife. ]
no subject
Then surely we'll be able to get this all sorted soon. For now, at least, it isn't a bad place to be.

Sorry Lucas, you're going to quickly learn that Siffrin is such a quiet fella. ]
