[ !

!!!

He hadn't quite expected a response.

At least Ryou's still here, kinda. And still talking to him, kinda.
]

how bad is it

[ Probably not the best phrasing! It's... a way to ask though? Look he knows he sucks at whatever this sort of interaction is. ]
improvking: (well shit)

Fuck.

[ As the words keep going, all the Ring-Spirit can think is that Ryou's doing much worse than he'd been doing - much much worse. Fuck fuck fuck, what does he do?

He clearly should have stopped looking and tried contacting sooner. ...Actually his typing hadn't been readable before, so... shit, this is a mess.

[ All he can think to do is. go down the questions and answer them, calmly.

The calm should come easily enough with how numb he feels - that or he's...

afraid.

This is what gal-axy was talking about on the network before. A fear that keeps you going, because if you stop - you can't/i> stop, you're much more afraid of what might happen if you stop.
]

I'm not you. I only look like you because I don't have a face of my own. I'm a thief. I stole your face. it's hard for me to imitate you for long. even with the practice I have, I can't maintain the act for long. we're very different people.

the Ryou with the shop has a cousin. do
improvking: (no. first you CARRY the SIX.)

[personal profile] improvking 2021-03-31 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...He wants to ask.

"do you have a cousin"

"do you want a cousin"

The Ring-Spirit wants to be Ringu. Wants to ask permission - but that's not how it works. He isn't Ringu. He's not sure who or what he is, and Ringu never had a reason to wonder - he was just Ringu.
]

I'm not Ringu. even if you wanted a Ringu, he's not here. you could start your own shop, but you aren't the Ryou with the shop and the asshole cousin.

the Ryou who lost time and woke up bleeding is you.
the Ryou who picked up the Ring is you.


[ He though Ryou'd blocked that off, honestly... Did something pull it back out, or can Ryou just not compartmentalize properly, what the - keep going. ]

the Ryou who fucking blew up his own soul for people he'd known for what, two days? that's you.

I don't know why you think there's a "right Ryou" and a "wrong Ryou". I don't understand the question so I can't answer it.

[ "Punishment"

The Ring-Spirit is so pissed at that stupid priest.

Super not the time for it though.
]

ask.
improvking: (huh. it's already all on fire)

[personal profile] improvking 2021-03-31 09:09 am (UTC)(link)
as my vessel, you mean?

I didn't.

you were the first and only person, after thousands of years, to survive a possession attempt. knowing what I know now, my guess is that channeling two gods at once is simply beyond
well, pretty much everyone, and so you must have a terrifying amount of heka.


[ ...Aaaand... after that long long rant about whether he might somehow be "the real Ryou" he'ssss..... hesitant to say more. Also thinking too deeply about his own spiritual makeup and whether anything from it might have been born anew elsewhere is giving him a headache, as usual, so. ]

All I know is your soul didn't incinerate on contact with me.

[ The Ring-Spirit has to stop there, force himself to respond calmly.

He is so, so pissed at that priest.

It results in a pause that Ryou might interpret as a bad sign... but the Ring-Spirit needs to - well, act calm, even if he can't stop feeling furious; he returns as quickly as he can manage.
]

you're right I'm angry, but it's not with you. it's that stupid priest. when I figure out a way to punish HIM that he won't just get off on

[ Wandering off-topic. ]

*nobody's* punishing you. not me, not even the fucking Fog.
improvking: (wut??)

Hm. Well, moving along for now.

look, that priest? absolute idiot. he's so deep in the lawful alignment he doesn't even realize it IS an alignment, he's sure that's ~Just How Shit Works~ for everyone everywhere and he's

[ Gah, getting off-topic again. ]

I'm NOT trying to defend the Fog here. she wouldn't disapprove of a single thing that bastard did, to you or anyone else. she's not kind, she's not nice. she's not a Good god. I don't begrudge anyone's hatred of her. she DOES pull some serious *shit*.

but she doesn't do any of it as part of some ~cosmic plan~ or ~carrying out of divine judgment~. she just. DOES. shit. she's a *CHAOS* god. you're not being punished, you're being

messed with.
for no reason. not a one.


[ He's aware that "no reason" isn't exactly uplifting. But he's certain it is the truth.

Reality sucks, landlord.
