Ohh...that's why your profile doesn't have an age. You're really old. [DON'T. JUST SAY IT LIKE THAT?] But isn't that just like...I dunno, an ouroboros of curses? You were born because of cursed energy, but cursed energy is what makes curses be born.
[there's a slight laugh though. it's terrible because she's still not happy he killed luca? but also, like, mahito is weird and fascinating in his own way.]
It's what Date would say about me, too. [which isn't true, and her tone seems to say that as well.] We'll see! I've still got stuff to do here for you guys before anything else.
Kind of! The source is old, but this form only came together a year or two ago. [He is both ancient and 2. It's weird, don't mind him. That's the true reason for the ???] But yeah, you can look at it like that. I was born because human emotion generates cursed energy, but we tend to make humans feel not so great, which creates more cursed energy! They do a really good job making each other feel really bad without us too, though.
[Sasuga ningen-domo... Also Lust is valid. Is is definitely weird and fascinating, even if he only remembers Luca's name because he heard Endorsi mention it so often when they were planning his death.]
Hm... [JUST HM. A gentle, jesting disbelief.] Yeah, I know, your job here and all. Still! Someone who's already made it all the way out here can probably do anything they make their mind up on.
I guess that's true, too. People are really sensitive sometimes and can get their feelings hurt pretty easily. And if that happens, it would just make the energy grow even more... [wrow.
Yup! Exactly like that. It's like any other cycle in the world.
[Ashes to ashes, curse to curse...
As for that:] You made it here like the rest of us, right? For whatever reason. And you're still here! So you're probably the kind of person that can figure out problems and work through stuff and finish anything you decide to start.
[A little nod... He may not be as into figuring out avatar lore as some, but even he knows it ain't an easy looking job.]
I see...[sage nodding here but also what the fuck actually.]
When you put it that way, I guess maybe you have a good point. [sure. that sounds right to her.] We're not really sure how this is gonna end and what it'll mean for us when you guys are done here, but I'm sure we'll figure it out in no time.
Mmhm. That's what I mean! You made it this far, you'll make it farther. [A little nod. His attention finally drops back to his bracelet, which he appears to be almost done with.]
You can figure out all the details later. It's better not to crowd your brain up with too much stuff, anyway.
[He's teasing back, but also still true. ONE BRAINCELL!!]
Overthinking this is even worse than underthinking them sometimes. Smart people make stupid choices because they chew it over too long, you know? Happens all the time.
Not even considering hiring another co-host? Too many cooks in the kitchen, I guess...
[But!! He'll tie off the end of the bracelet he'd been working on, and moves to tie it around her wrist when he's done. It's snug enough to not fall out, with enough gap to be comfy.]
Her reaction seems to make him happy in turn, and he mirrors the gesture, clapping his hands together too! A FOOL. He is truly a horrible creature, but sometimes you're both genuine in your murderous intent and also your gestures of weird gremlin curse fondness(???), it's fine.]
Thanks! I've only made this type of bracelet, so I've had a bit of practice before now.
[That's definitely where most people here have Mahito beat.]
Nice, I'm glad! I though they suited you pretty well. [But he'll nod about that...] I'm gonna make one for Greed! Aoi, too. [THIS ABSOLUTE GOBLIN.] Maybe Endorsi?

It shows. I like the colors a lot. [no shit, lust.] Planning on making even more then?

I can't really make them anything for that, though.
