BLUESCLUES PENDANT COMMUNICATIONS

[cluedin]

Well. You did it! Your pendants are yours to keep and you're able to reach out to anyone with a matching necklace. Maybe it's time to say hi? Or, you know...sometimes misfires happen.

I mean, that's a win. I'd just take the whole "not dying" thing. [ she says dryly. ]

The fuck is ELID?

[swordflash]

[ asch is twelve years old, huh.

zenitsu, meanwhile, audibly deflates, because those numbers do suck. ]

Right? Actually, the mortality rate is pretty high in the Demon Slayer Corps. And once you're in, they send you one job after another without a break.

I was so sure that I'd die on my next job, but thankfully I had Tanjiro with me.

[recrypt]

Eurosky Low-Emission Infectious Disease. Better and more commonly known as that condition that turns people into, more or less, zombies.

[disreguarded]

[ he acts like one yea ]

Fuck. At least the Soul doesn't enlist kids. [ she mutters. ] Well - I'm glad Tanjiro was with you. Sounds like a good guy. Someone worth sticking around.

[ if only for her peace of mind. maybe she didn't get to know everybody in the house as much as she could've, but that doesn't stop her from feeling responsible for all of them. ]

... That's pretty brave of you, though? To do that job.

[disreguarded]

[ she's makin a face even if it can't be seen. ]

Eugh. Gross. [ a beat. ] Yeah, definitely... don't stay in a place where Hunter could catch that, maybe? [ y'know, since zombie trauma. ] Can you get infected by that?

[swordflash]

[ tanjiro is stuck with him until he gets married, so he's definitely sticking around the guy.

while he can't take full credit for any of the jobs he's taken thus far, he can still feel warm and fuzzy from beau's praise. he giggles. ]

Shoichi's the powerful one who protected me from a demon, but I covered for him when we fell from the window! If anything like that happens while you visit, I'll protect you, too!

[recrypt]

No. It's half the reason beings like me were... not necessarily made, originally, but so heavily invested in in the first place.

[ robots can't catch radiation zombie, Beau, they're good. ]

War took out a lot of the global population. They weren't going to risk what was left by sending them out to the more heavily contaminated zones. In any case- I can't guarantee that we won't ever find ourselves in any red zones, just in case anything unexpected happens- but the interesting thing about being the leader of your own independent squadron? Is that you get to pick and choose which jobs you go on.

[ so yeah, no zombie trauma for Hunter. ]

[disreguarded]

[ he giggles. beau sort of just huffs out an amused noise. ]

Yeah, I'm counting on it. I'll help out wherever I can. Bet I could hold my own against a demon or two. [ probably. ] Is Shoichi another one of the people who survived the Final Selection, or...

[swordflash]

[ maybe powers from other worlds will work on demons. let's get this straight, though. he said that he would protect her if they fall from a window. no demons, please. ]

Shoichi's a civilian. He's not even ten years old, but he defeated a demon all on his own. He's seriously strong!

[miscakes]

Oh, but you don't deny the shitty attitude. [PETULANT.] Whatever it is, keep it to yourself. I didn't ask for your pity.

[disreguarded]

I've never denied my shitty attitude. [ shrug. ] And I don't pity you, either.

[miscakes]

Then why continue spewing such senseless garbage?

[disreguarded]

Man, I really hit a nerve, huh?

[miscakes]

... Don't be ridiculous. I have simply run out of patience to suffer through anyone's nonsense.

[disreguarded]

[ she just laughs now. ]

Uh huh. Okay, so like - if I told you I actually wanted to try to be friends with you, what would you say?

[miscakes]

[.............]

Are you mocking me?

[disreguarded]

[ another laugh. ]

Fuck, I - okay, fair. [ that's about right. ] No, I'm not, actually.
