voice / text / communion

D's mind is a cacophony of things.

The landscape is shadow and darkness, and it is chilly and reserved where D sits in it; he feels like a simple young man. Quiet, soft, human. But behind the stoicism is a warm, sensual, and elegant sliver of something primordial and powerful. Embracing it is hypnotic, arousing, yet also a little horrifying.

Amidst all of this is something else, too: a craggled and old presence which can be heard on occasion cackling or chattering separately, the crusty voice belonging neither to D or the peculiar entity in the space.

[ They'll both be happy when D's happy, how about that. :/

The question comes as a surprise though, his slowly drooping posture stiffening back up as he frowns. ]

Argue?

[ No...but now that he thinks about it, Dokja had been acting weird that last week before the Oracle, shooting him glares when he thought he could get away with it and remaining surprisingly quiet. There'd obviously been something going on, but with all the build-up and preparation needed for the Oracle there hadn't been time to ask.

And then he'd died! ]

No, but he was acting strange. Did he say he was angry with me?

[damnpire]

[Stares at the two of them with my piercing, beady eyes.]

I assumed he would be foolish.

[Dokja seems to always be pretty foolish about a lot of things.]

Being a dhampir didn't bother him as much as it should, and yet your decision to wait until I spoke to him seems to have made him upset.

I told him not to argue with you because your intentions were to let me do it.

[He sounds a bit disappointed Dokja is choosing to be petty from... insecurity? He doesn't know.]

I'm sorry. It would have been better if you simply had told him.

[D would have accepted the brunt of the breach of trust.]

[ So all this is just Dokja being Dokja, got it. It's vaguely annoying but nothing new, and if Eustace closes his eyes and sighs again, that's just because such things have become habit by now. ]

You don't need to apologize. [ ONCE AGAIN D DID NOTHING WRONG!! ] If he was upset about it, he should have confronted me.

[ Instead of acting like a CHILD. But alas, things are never so easy in the Dokja('s ankles) household. He's not really looking forward to having this conversation, especially not when he's still recovering, but better sooner than later. ]

I'll talk to him about it. [ So they can argue. ]

[damnpire]

[Nooooooooooooo, D doesn't want Dostace ruined which is fortunate for me because I also do not want Dostace ruined.

But there is little he can do now, as it is, and there isn't any point in getting involved in any way with this part of it. Godspeed to Dad...]

You should be resting.

[He will just day it!!!!! He's blunt like Dad, too.]

[lockedon]

[ This kinning......

But okay, okay, FINE, he will go rest now, Eustace may be stupid but every now and then he can take a hint. It helps that he's started to feel tired again, all this Deep Discussion exhausting him further. ]

You should take it easy for awhile as well.'

[ With a pointed look at the missing arm space.

But apparently they are going to end this conversation with any talk of happier things, sorry to Yuul. Don't mind Eustace as he turns around to leave without so much as saying goodbye....it's fine, D is probably used to this. ]
