[ you know what? yea

Seo puts on the headband. His two-toned purple hair makes it easy to blend in. Stupid Claire's purple theme.

Nya ]

We banter a lot. I annoyed her, she tried to kill me, I called her a lousy killer... all the fun stuff.

[ nya! sorry, he seems very entertained at least. ]

Aw, she likes you. [ lmao. ] Some people would say she's difficult to understand but you seem to have a decent handle on her. But, uh, and don't take this the wrong way, but do people try to kill you a lot?

[ you seem very chill about this. ]

[ thinks about how he was on both killer lists that week when he died ]

No offense taken! The answer is yes, but I'm still here. W was also my killer in that previous murder location. I can be killed, but I will never stay dead. A shame, that.

[ ... well. this opens up a few other questions. ]

Are you actually human, or human-passing? Or is it that this is only true because of the two "games" you've found yourself in now?

I'm a 25-year old human.

[ The answer is immediate and carries a bit of an unsettling feeling. Just a little. There is some sort of weight to those words as if Seodore will absolutely not let them be refuted. He isn't threatening Jonas or trying to intimidate him on purpose, but he's just like this. Naturally? Yeah. ]

[ he sort of just tilts his head to the side like he's curious why the age specification's there as well. but he won't say otherwise. if seodore wants to insist he is a 25-year-old human, jonas won't push that. ]

Just curious. With the kind of people here, you can't always tell on sight anymore.

[ He smiles brightly as if he just did not make anything creepy. shady ass mfer ]

Then what would you call yourself?

[ he is seeing why other people have said this man is annoying. he still doesn't find him so, personally, but jonas's tolerance for people is weirdly high. ]

These days? Um. Eighteen year old human passing, I guess. [ ... ] I died a few months ago.

[ He won't ask about how he died just yet, but he slightly tilts his head to the side. ]

And you were in that heaven place with the others.

[ turboheaven...... my phone said turnoheaven and I'm like hm ]

Was there really a god there?

[ turno... i suppose they are both now just staring at each other like this and feeling the other person out. ]

I was. [ what a fun question. ] And God was there, yeah. Wouldn't be Heaven without one, right?

What was the entity like?

[ Seodore seems very curious about this in particular... ]

[ he should have expected this, but he still seems to be trying to gauge this... ]

You could just ask her. You live with her.

Hm? Alex? I did ask her something about it before, but it didn't really go anywhere...

[ that, and he's not sure how to treat her ]

[ there's a thin smile to that. ]

Depends on how you ask, and if she likes you. [ he's mad at her, but he is the certified alex whisperer unfortunately. ]

... what's there to say? She thought it was a fun game, and she got in through a backdoor because a double-agent sneaked their way in to help her.

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

Huh?

[ He has no idea what Jonas is talking about. The cat headband falls a little to the front. Nya. ]

[ nya. ]

You asked about the entity. [ he is simply answering? ]

[ ... ]

I'm guessing there was an existence called "the entity"? I was talking about the god.

[ ... ]

You gotta be specific, man. The Entity is what everybody was calling the thing causing all the possessions.

[ YOU CAN SEE WHY HE WAS CONFUSED. ]

But yeah, uh, I guess entity's another word for God, huh.

It sure is~

[ He laughs a little. There, there. ]

Possessions? I assume that's how the murders started in heaven for most people, huh.

[ Most. Not all. Sometimes you just want to kill regardless of where you're at. ]

I guess you weren't affected by them directly?

Yeah, you're right about that. Murders were never meant to be a part of Heaven, but when the possessions started it became a problem we had to solve before it got even further out of hand.

[ he sees that this is a little like fishing though, so he shakes his head. ]

I was never possessed or anything, no. But I did lose friends because they were killed.

You got them back, so that's nice.

[ Though he knows there is trauma of dying at least once for the uninitiated. Would have been Jacopo if he isn't what he is right now probably. ]

Did it make you want to treasure your friends some more?

Yeah. Not getting them back wasn't an option for me. [ for a variety of reasons. ]

Saying it that way makes it sound like I didn't treasure them before. But yeah, you could say that. They weren't gone for long, and we were able to write letters, but... they still had to go through some pretty terrible things I never wanted for them. That's something I can never fix for them. So all I can do is remember them and hope that the next time I'll likely see them I owe them something better.

Oh, no. You seem like the kind who would treasure your friends even in normal circumstances. It just affects you differently when you lose them again, and again.

[ He assumes many people were killed and odds are, some were his friends. ]

Did you feel obligated that you had to fix them? What a good heart you have...

It got a little easier after a while once we knew where our dead were being held, but it didn't change that the thing happened. And that some of my friends cost the loss of some other friends. But... it happens.

[ he stares at seodore for a few moments, and there's an upturn of his lips briefly then. ]

I don't know if it's just about having a good heart. But... it feels like you may have more to say about that?

Mm. No? Not really. Perhaps if you were a little more naive, I would tell you that you can't fix people if they don't want to be fixed, or that it's not your responsibility to take on the task of fixing all your friends.

[ It seems Seodore thinks Jonas is already aware of it to an extent, so that's why he didn't say all this before. He chuckles a little. ]

It doesn't feel like that I'm talking to an 18-year old in a conversation with you. The other 18 year olds I knew were nothing like you. It's not a terrible thing. Sometimes, it feels that you're forced to think these things, whether you like it or not.

[ "Some people grow up too fast." ]
