[sarkazm]

Let me just give you the fast version. Dusty-ass ancient ancestor, vengeful ghost, you know the drill... he was in an airship, but now he's stuck with me and I'm stuck listening to him complain.

Real pissy about this Heaven thing, by the way.

[holyspirits]

A weird bit of codependency then. [ no. ] Would he have preferred to go somewhere else, too? Or is he mad he's still trapped?

[sarkazm]

A little of that, a little disappointment with our current generation... annnd all the other revenants in the Furnace are angry with him, so putting him in there was a no-go.

[holyspirits]

What'd he do to make them so mad?

[sarkazm]

Put 'em in the furnace to begin with.

[holyspirits]

Was it necessary, or did he choose to do so to eliminate them for other reasons?

[sarkazm]

Necessary.

[the revenant is probably losing his MIND right now not being able to answer for himself. god.]

The furnace runs our whole city. Without it, Kazdel would've been done for.

[holyspirits]

[ good luck little dude. ]

Am I imagining it right as something under your city? Like an energy source.

[sarkazm]

More like right in the middle of it. You can see it burning from plenty of spots in the city.

[holyspirits]

More of a bonfire then. Don't tell me feeding it other souls is the only way to power it.

[ she did not say souls, but close enough. ]

[sarkazm]

Hey, most Sarkaz consider it an honor to join the old farts in there.

[that would be a yes.]

[holyspirits]

Most. Implying it's really not everyone. Is there no other option for those who don't want to?

[sarkazm]

They don't toss just any dead Sarkaz in, so not everyone's even going to be an option. You've got to be worthy of it.

[holyspirits]

Does a high body count make a worthy Sarkaz? [ a mild question. ]

[sarkazm]

I mean, considering most of the world wants us dead at any given time... getting rid of our enemies usually counts, sure.

[holyspirits]

And if I were to ask if you've made enemies here already... ?

[sarkazm]

Probably.

[she sounds so unconcerned.]

But I'll burn that bridge when I get to it.

[holyspirits]

If you could avoid literally burning something, I would appreciate it—

[ which is about as far as they get, because we are on a train and going through the fog, so they both fall asleep suddenly for the duration of the ride...honk shoo... ]

[sarkazm]

[honk shoo mimimi etc

and when they arrive at the end of the ride:]

-hey, the hell was that?!

[holyspirits]

[ they sit up to look out the window at bikini bottom. ]

Another side-effect of heaven, I assume. That will wear off eventually. [ probably. ] We should get off the train though.

[sarkazm]

What is heaven so weird for.

[she exhales a huff and hops right off the train. noooo nap trips again for a little while, thanks.]

[holyspirits]

I would assume if there's a hell it's also just as weird. [ off they go! ] One of those things you never know about until you actually get there.

[sarkazm]

'If'? You don't even know if there's anything else?

[shouldn't they be aware of whether the opposite exists? probably?

let's go to the beach beach]

[holyspirits]

I didn't really have strong feelings about what the church would tell people. But if there's a heaven, you would think.

[ so it's more like they just don't care to think about it. it is beach time. let us walk! ]

[sarkazm]

...yeah, you'd think.

[mystery... but oh well. not like it's her problem.]

You seen the ocean before?
