Though from my perspective, the differences are... limited. He was killed, and now his soul has gone somewhere else. You were killed, and then your soul went somewhere else.
It sounds like most of the people here are into different things than me, anyway.
[ they all like to go OUT and EXPLORE and FLIRT ]
That doesn't sound like you're just looking. [ not judgmental for once, he's a little amused. ] Which are your favorites? They don't have weird effects?
What sort of things are you into? Have you tried asking if anyone else is interested in them?
[ and they laugh at the callout. don't worry about it. ] I don't have any favorites. They're all interesting. And I haven't been affected by any of them yet, so... So far so good.
I do a lot of sports - but mostly racing. And I read sometimes, but that’s mostly for school or after curfew, and... not really a group activity.
[ shrugs. ]
No favorites? Isn’t that kind of cheating? You can’t even recommend anything that way. [ teasing. ] Would you guys even be affected by it if they had any effects, or is it just us?
You could ask others to play sports with you. A lot of people here do have energy to burn, from my assessment. Or a book club, maybe?
[ they're doing their best. ]
Those effects are a side effect of adapting to Heaven. We've been here longer, so... Most things probably won't affect us. [ thinking... ] Oh! I had some pop rocks earlier. I especially liked those.
You should grow accustomed by the time your judgment period is over. I think.
[ ... anyway... they rummage through this stash of candy they've been gathering today until they find a little package of pink and red pop rocks. they hold it out for him. ] Try these. They're funny.

Although I have been told there are friend dates, too. They don't have to be of the romantic variety.

[ because they're not!!! ]
Is this why everyone's suddenly being so gross in public?
no subject
[ tilts their head... to the other side... ]
Do you think that love is gross?
no subject
[ the tips of his ears a little pink though ]
But they're all flirting in public and talking about... thirds... using pet names... They should keep it to themselves!
no subject
[ their tone says they have never thought about this before. ]
I'm happy for them. [ they sound unsure of this. actually. ]

This just limits the places his soul could be.

Sometimes people need to distract themselves and stop using quite so much of their resources on one feeling. Especially a sad feeling.

Anyway. What're you doing out here? Is all this lovey-dovey stuff your kind of thing?
no subject
[ they shrug though! ]
I'm just looking. I like eating all the different candies. [ that's not just looking. ]

no subject
[ just out of curiosity. ]
Oh... How long would it take to stop affecting us, then? [ it sucks to have to be so suspicious! ] Pop rocks? What are those?
no subject
[ for various reasons. ]

[ HE'S NOSY who wouldn't like sports besides a nerd like taair ]
That's kind of a long time to wait. [ but oh. pop rocks? o: ] What do you mean funny?
[ opens the pack to try them, pops some in his mouth... and immediately is taken aback by the sensation and the sound. ]
Why do they do that?!
no subject
[ SHRUG! at both sports and at that being a long time to wait. it is what it is. but then they snicker at him. ]
It's carbon dioxide gas stored in tiny air pockets. As the candy melts, the carbon dioxide 'pops.'
