Well, like I said, most of us are already dead, and I'm pretty sure the few who aren't are gonna get the operation. Doesn't make a lot of sense for me to be the odd one out. [...] You've got family?

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-10 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe being odd isn't so bad, you know! The last remaining of your kind! You'd be really special!

[but they don't sound like they're trying to pressure white necessarily.]

Yeah, you bet. My twin, our brother, and our mom! Do you, um... remember your family?
enfangs: (1-12. prelude-iii)

[personal profile] enfangs 2021-02-10 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. Don't have any.
probe: (Sloth)

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-10 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
None?! But even gods have parents! I... I don't know if I could take not having at least my brother! We've always been together!

[he shrugs.]

My parents died when I was a baby. I grew up on my own.

[well, there was his caleb, his "godfather", but the idea of considering him as family in any way would make white barf.]

When you don't have anyone else, you get used to it.

...Wow! They really just went and died on you! They really should have been more careful.

I'm not sure I can relate. My brother is always super busy with his work now, so I hardly see him. But... if I'm honest...? I kind of miss him! I don't think he's very happy with me, though.

[white has absolutely no idea what to say to that comment about his parents, wow. he supposes??? it's still way better than when he thought they just went and abandoned him, at least.

so, uh. moving on.]

Why's that?
probe: (Sloth)

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-10 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Well...

[they are actually shockingly quiet for a long moment, and they look away idly.]

I might be getting fired soon! I'm a little behind on my work, I guess. I try to keep up, but I just enjoy drawing on the edge of the papers so darn much! It gives them character!

Gods have to do paperwork?
probe: (Sloth)

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-10 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Ab-so-lute-ly! You wouldn't believe the amount of paperwork! That's okay, though. I'm not exactly in administration, so it isn't so bad for me!

I just have to make sure all the lists are tallied.

Sounds boring as hell.
probe: (Sloth)

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-10 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
....yeah!

[they sort of "droop" in the air.]

It's the same day after day, but it's my job.

Guess you can't really quit godhood, huh?
probe: (Sloth)

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-10 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Not unless you get fired!
enfangs: (1-12. prelude-iii)

[personal profile] enfangs 2021-02-10 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
And what happens to a fired god?
probe: (Sloth)

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-10 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, um, well... I don't want to find out!
enfangs: (1-17. prelude-xxxxix)

[personal profile] enfangs 2021-02-11 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds ominous. What, do you think you'll be killed or something?
probe: (Sloth)

[personal profile] probe 2021-02-11 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Don't know. Probably not! Maybe it's just banishment! But I wouldn't want to get fired and find out. I'd never see my brother then!
enfangs: (2-86. xvi)

[personal profile] enfangs 2021-02-14 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
He wouldn't be able to come visit, huh?
