[ evenin' asgard. how you doin'? okay? that's nice. mako still thinks this is bullshit ok but whatever, that's already been established and probably isn't going to change any time soon. a couple of you might recognise the grumpy runner from day 84!? (if you haven't seen him on runs since then, it's because he's started running at... five am. omfg you lunatic.)

do you know how fucking unnerving it is to know you are on the sixth fucking floor of the house, and then look out the window and find it's actually apparently just the second? APPARENTLY REALLY FUCKING UNNERVING. and that's really freaking weird, so mako can't really do his usual "i am going to sit half out the window and stare at the night like the goddamn batman" thing.

so.

so, he is just hoboing it up on the steps of the back porch like a friggin' hobo, taking up a lot of space and lounging and whatever. seriously, the guy's 6'2", he can take up a lot of space when he wants to. ]

So is it a thing in everyone's worlds to go up to random people and start talking to them when they're busy, or is that just something you've picked up here? [ LMAO GUESS WHO IS KIND OF PISSED ABOUT HIS INTERRUPTED RUNNING TIME OK ] It gets kind of annoying.

[ a tiny, irritated huff, and he runs a hand through his hair mako why is your hair always such a friggin' mess, bro ]

Anyways. I'm looking for a job, since I can't exactly do what I did back home here. Got anything?

[ reaching up to switch off the feed, then pausing. ]

A gym with decent weights and a couple heavy bags would be good too.

[It's not the easiest thing for her to understand, but she supposes that might be on the same level as someone taking away a Witch or Demon's magic.]

Ah... that sounds bad.

It is.

[ how did we get here from mako being teased about his Charm ]

Is it permanent?

[ is it? he didn't stick around either times to find out, but... ]

Word on the street's that's the case.

That's rough. At least with us it's only temporary.

Yeah?

[ he still doesn't get euri's idea of magic, but it's kinda cool to hear about...

(mako, in another life, you were a nerd, your life as a jock is a lie.) ]

That's what the gods have said, anyway. The only reason we can't use powers like that here is because it'll kill us.

[Hobonerd B)]

... This place just gets better and better.

[ WELL THAT'S... CREEPY ]

It's a pain, I know. But I guess it's better than dying.

But we don't stay dead, do we? Is anybody really sure that's what it is?

[ mako thinks we're in the spirit world ]

Hm...? What do you mean?

People "come back" if they're killed, right? How do you know they really died in the first place?

... Well, I know someone who killed a psychotic murderer here, and he's the kind of person who would make sure someone like that is dead. I don't think he's the type to lie about it, either.

... They don't have a police force here, do they. [ a beat. HE'S BEING RHETORCIAL ] You can answer that later. Did the murderer come back?

[Euri nods firmly.]

She did.

So people "die", but they come back. [ a little shrug ] Maybe we just think they die? I'm not saying your... friend was lying, but maybe the gods tricked him.

Why would they do that? What would they have to gain?

[ shrug ] Keep it from sounding too much like the Spirt World?

The what? Is that your afterlife?

... After—? [ >: like, uh? ] ... No?

Then what is it?

It's where most spirits live... sometimes, the powerful ones will take people and trap them there if they're mad, and since it's... just spirits? Everything there lives forever.

.... That sounds really weird, you know. Like some kind of made-up thing.

[ he shrugs ] The same argument could be made for magic.

No way! Magic's nothing like some weird spirit-afterworld thing!
