Secret side of the Church? You make sound like I'm part of the Illuminati. I mean, I know they had a hand in this body of mine, and wanted me to keep it secret, so....
[He turns his head, but since he's blind he just looks somewhere over her shoulder.]
Maybe...I mean, even when you tell me, I just...can't see it. [A beat.] Ha, literally in my case.
The hidden weaponry definitely gives you the edge, I'd say.
[ ... ]
I still don't like losing memories, obviously. It scares me. But a few people pointed out that if you share memories with other people, they won't forget them even if you do. [ she shrugs, even though he can't see it. ]
You didn't tell me everything about what you do, but I'll remember what you did.
[He says, after a long moment. He tries to imagine what her face might be showing, now.]
[It's not that he doesn't expect kindness, or doesn't think he deserves it, but she's provided so much. He doesn't know if he's provided half of that.]
I'll remember everything you told me, too. You deserve that.

[Oh, the tap - he naturally looks down though he can't see anything.]
I just felt like I didn't need to wear it. Pretty necklace, though.
no subject
excuse me, the Realm?? Hello. Please explain. ]
It was religious though, wasn't it? That's more than just a necklace. [ especially if you're like. y'know. a priest.
hansa. ]

[uh oh]

[ she just. leans forward, and bumps her forehead into his shoulder. full on this time.
ow? maybe not, she has a hard head, on top of the week's effects. ]
I think I figured out what memory you lost this week.
no subject
Hm? [he is math lady meme now] Did I forget that I'm religious?
no subject
And that you're a priest, I'm guessing? Unless it's treating those as two separate things.
no subject
I'm a priest?
[GUESS THAT ANSWERS THAT QUESTION]
no subject
A pretty unique one, but yes. You're a priest.
no subject
[He's frowning. Everything seems...fuzzy.]
Are you sure? I mean...I know I was working with the Church, but...
no subject
[ she lifts her head up, and shifts enough that she's sat so she's looking at him, rather than just sat next him. ]
... If it is something the Realm's taken, remembering it won't be as easy as me just telling you though.
no subject
[He turns his head, but since he's blind he just looks somewhere over her shoulder.]
Maybe...I mean, even when you tell me, I just...can't see it. [A beat.] Ha, literally in my case.
no subject
[ semi-automatically she reaches up and gently tilts his head with her hand, so he's actually looking at her and not somewhere over her shoulder. ]
Funny. [ it's not. ] I think this is just how it works. It'd be too easy if we could just tell each other what we lost.
no subject
[He makes as if to speak more, but he stills at her turning his head, his expression softening.]
...You're right. Its hard on purpose. [And a beat.] I...really appreciate that you try, though.
no subject

[ hm. ] I'm not as kind as everyone seems to think, you know. I think I'm a pretty selfish person.
[ besides, it's fair. maybe he doesn't think he's done a lot for her in return, but he has. ]
no subject
[A light movement of his shoulders, up and down.]
It's true.
no subject
It's not always altruistic. Which is... well, the selfish part.
[ she sighs. ]
But there's no point in kicking each other while we're all down, either way.
no subject
[Maybe last week he would've said something about the generosity of Jesus or something but...of course, he says nothing else here. He just smiles.]
I'm happy when you are. That isn't kicking each other down.
no subject
...
...
[ get a grip, alex. ] Alright.
no subject
[He has no idea what is happening right now! He just smiles.]
no subject
[ ...
she just prods him in the side. ]
no subject
[He kind of draws his hand back to bat at it?]
Hey, what did I do?
no subject
Nothing.
[ this explains nothing at all. but is a very mature response.
still. she waves a hand in front of his eyes again. ]
There'll be no terrorising leopards this week then, I take it. If this doesn't go away.
no subject
I know. Isn't that sad? Its like they want to take all the fun out of this for me.
