...So you didn't have a say in it?

[holyspirits]

No, I did. But I didn't go along with it for a really long time.

[sacredpath]

What changed your mind?

[holyspirits]

It was the only way to do what I needed to. [ they pause at that and shake their head ] Or, well. I probably could give a hundred reasons, but if we're being honest, I think they all boil down to grief.

[sacredpath]

...I'm sorry. I wish you hadn't had to change your mind. Unless it worked out for the better?

[holyspirits]

It did. [ they seem to believe it, at least? ] But for me it was about fixing something. I still don't think it's the kind of life I'd want to have. I'm just less likely to argue with other people about it now.

[sacredpath]

I suppose you're here now, either way. Have you been here for long?

[holyspirits]

About... six or seven months? We spent most of it preparing for this.

[sacredpath]

Oh. That's... much less time than I thought.

[holyspirits]

Oh, yeah. It's been brief. But I've got experience with bigger scale projects, so. Don't worry about that.

[sacredpath]

You were all promoted rather quickly.

[holyspirits]

[ they make a noise like they think that's sort of funny ]

Kinda? God wanted specific personalities and people for the project, I guess.

[sacredpath]

What's funny about that? [...] Is this project not a promotion?

[holyspirits]

I don't know if I'd call it a promotion for myself, that's all.
