[sarkazm]

Well, you're not getting any of that from me!

...kind of a relief if the theories don't fit, though.

[holyspirits]

You don't have any theories? Or you just don't want to share them?

[ they lean their weight on their arms, hands behind them on the ground. ]

Only kind of. On one hand, all the theories are so bad that I don't want them to be true. On the other hand... That leaves us still searching.

[sarkazm]

I'm not the theorizing type.

[she'd rather just do something about a problem.]

God seriously doesn't have any answers for you?

[holyspirits]

Huh.

[ well that's okay! ]

Not so far. There's just no precedent for this kind of thing happening. But we'll look into it. With all of us giving it our full attention, I'm sure we'll figure it out.

[sarkazm]

It can't be that hard to figure out.

[they'll get there? probably?]

...is there any precedent for shit from when we were alive still being a problem for us?

[holyspirits]

[ surely, in a mg, they will solve this problem in w0 and it won't come up again. ]

I wouldn't call it a precedent, exactly, because this system wasn't in place before.

But because the chance exists still that you might return to your lives for a second chance, your bodies do need to stay somewhat close to their physical state. So... Injuries, scars, illnesses, things like that may remain.

[sarkazm]

Isn't that just asking for anybody who died from getting sick to die of it again, since apparently we're not immune to death?

[holyspirits]

[ they shake their head. ]

No. It won't progress to that point.

[sarkazm]

...at least we have that much going for us.

[not dying of her illness is a pro... probably, anyway.]

[holyspirits]

Why do you ask?

[ general curiosity, or...? ]

[sarkazm]

Pretty sure mine wasn't that close to killing me... but it never hurts to know.

[holyspirits]

[ :( ]

You're sick?

[sarkazm]

Have been for a while! Most of us Sarkaz are.

[sucks to be extra susceptible to it...]

[holyspirits]

I didn't know.

[ ... ]

What are Sarkaz?

[sarkazm]

What I am. My people. 'Devils', if you listen to everybody else!

[holyspirits]

I'm only listening to you. [ headtilt. ] Do you think you're devils?

[sarkazm]

It's useful. If they call us devils... it's out of fear.

[holyspirits]

That wasn't really my question.

[sarkazm]

Then- sure, sometimes we are. I've called myself one plenty of times.

[holyspirits]

So you're devils... sometimes?

[sarkazm]

I just wouldn't say all of us are!

[holyspirits]

So Sarkaz aren't devils.

It's just that some people are devils in general.

[ they're working so hard to understand. ]

[sarkazm]

Ugh, I'm really not the person for this. Where's Hoederer when you need him...

How did they put those stupid word problems. Every devil is a Sarkaz, but not all Sarkaz are devils?

[holyspirits]

That makes sense then. But it was a lot of extra detail when you could have just said "No."

[ but that's okay. ]

Why are people afraid of you? Just because a lot of you are sick?

[sarkazm]

We've been at war with pretty much the rest of the world for I don't even know how long. I don't really care about dusty old conflicts like that-- but the situation now is that they see us as less than them.
