Yep. Beings with power you can cultivate slowly by belief and worship. Beings like the God of Fear and Hunger... Gro-goroth... there are others.
[ watching his hand, her fingers shift a bit around the book as she offers it for him to Touch. ]
Mmm, sure. Gentle, please.
[ yaywon i dont know what a bible made of people skin feels like but (i'm going to jail bc of my duckduckgo history) it feels very soft, worn, pliant. Old. ]
[THANK YOU FOR SACRIFICING YOUR SEARCH HISTORY FOR MEEEE
and Lavi is also grateful, as he does the Touch. He treats it as gently as she asks... and maybe with the air of someone who's used to being careful with rare books... his fingers twitch a little like he really wants to open it, but he pulls back SOMEHOW.]
Never heard of Gro-goroth before.
[but he says it in a tone of fascination... Oh No]
So it's got all of 'em in them? And you believe in them all?
This one just focuses on the God of Fear and Hunger... not sure why this one decided to follow me here, but, hey. I'll take reading material where I can get it. People might get the creeps so, don't go spreading around what it's made of... okay?
[ she smiles a little. ]
You have to believe in the gods at least a little bit when you work with the occult, when you can tap into magic. So in my own way. Yes.
I mean, yeah, I can't have a conversation with 'em, that's for sure. And they're not as... put together. In fact, they are very much falling apart most of the time.

Magic like 'necromancy'?
[REAL? REAL NECROMANCY?]
no subject
Says it right there in my profile. I'm not going to play coy when everyone here's reading up on me same as anyone else.
But yes. Exactly like necromancy.

Because you have someone you wanna bring back? Or is it just an academic kinda interest?
no subject
If anything... it's a way of surviving when you're woefully out-numbered.
no subject
How often does that happen to you?
no subject
... If I had to say, a little too often the past couple days before I got here.
Otherwise, not usually.
no subject
Sounds like a story.
[but instead of looking at her with his big ole curious eye, his glance is more sympathetic.]

[WAR (?) AND THEN MG?]

[ his (singular) curious eye. she just tilts her head a little bit. ]
Just... glad to get a bit of a breather, even if it means being another stupid sacrifice.
no subject
