Corrin: If you did that, I would explode. So no.
Corrin: And it's not exactly killing myself? I mean, eventually, yeah, I'd die. Because of it.
Aethea: to Nori Fear not, small mortal. There is a way to stop this. It just hurts.
Castor: I am not understanding any of this, but okay.
Corrin: Just- Here. I'll do it, intervene or whatever you call it, and then I can think clearer and explain whatever.
Corrin: pulls out a flask and a syringe, dumps the contents of the flask into the syringe, rolls up his sleeve, injects himself and noything happens
Aethea: There's always a few seconds when it seems like you'll be spared the pain and misery, but then-
Corrin: promptly starts screaming in pain
Aethea: Give him a minute. He'll live. picks up a rock and makes a mole
Castor: eyes the mole I don't trust those things. Blind, and with huge claws like that? No thank you.
Nori: rubs Corrin’s back, very concerned. Moles are actually very beneficial. They get rid of pests, and they’re very adorable
Aethea: Moles are awesome.
Castor: Neither kind of moles are awesome.
Corrin: hath stopped screaming and is now more alive then he was. which is to say that he's alive. Owwww. Okay. I'm alive again.
Aethea: And you're an idiot for waiting three days before giving yourself more stardust.
Corrin: To be fair, the first two days I really didn't do any spellspeak.
Aethea: And then you made a giant frog the size of three houses do the Macarena, made a smaller frog do the same thing, and did about a million now-i'm-here-now-i'm-not illusions.
Castor: Frog? Macarena? That sounds interesting.
Corrin: grabs Aethea's frog and makes it do the Macarena because now all frog scenes/frogs in here are way past redemption
Castor: is in awe
(so i come back here and see this and i see lynn*'s profile picture thing. and i see it and i think oh, look. a cockatoo-frog on a tree.)
(curse ye, brain!)
(Totally not Kermit being strangled! :D)
(i knew that. but my brain is deprived of sleep and flooding with purple hyacinth theories, french and pain when i breathe.)
(how unfortunate can i get? the power is out (thank you, raven whose name i will never know, for flying into our power lines AGAIN and cutting the power off for hours.), i have a sore throat and sound like darth vader gargling sand, it hurts to breathe through my mouth and both my nostrils are bleeding.)
(life is against me)
(Have you tried chocolate? It cures just about any and every thing.)
(i have. but both my nostrils are blocked by whatever you call the stuff that blocks your nose because i'm blanking rn, and also toilet paper. i have blood in my mouth (thank you, deformed uvula) and it hurts to swallow.)
(haha if only we had some…)
(arya, get addic back here. there is yet anotehr macarena-ing frog.)
Addic: Is watching the frog when the turtle shifts and he falls into the whatever below ahhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
(I be make that amazing face soph does where the eyes are blank and the expression is just perfection. the one that appears at least once every four episodes in ph.)
(this one:)
Castor: watches him fall Well, there he goes- Banshee curses NO. NOT TODAY. yelling after Addic GET BACK HERE!
Corrin: What the- Oh. Right. Today's your shift down there.
Castor: YES. So by the time he lands down there, and gets anywhere near the banshee patrol, I'll be off this walking skeleton and on my way to the patrol for my shift. Where he'll inevitably be picked up, and more Banshee curses
Aethea: watching the frog do the Macarena. suddenly picks it up and throws it after Addic.
Corrin: …Why?
Addic: is still falling and is bored of screaming and yodels in a terrified voice
THE FROG: hits Addic smack in the face and starts also terrifiedly yodeling
Castor: (That face) If it dies, I am dragging YOU down there and making YOU fill out all the stuff that will need filling out.
Aethea: calling after the frog Don't die!
Corrin: wtaching. is amused.
Addic: stops yodelling to greet the frog Hello friend. how are you?
THE FROG: terrified merp
HE FROG: in a squeaky voice I'M DYING! ON SOMEONE'S FACE! FALLING INTO A BLOODY OCEAN OFF A GIANT TURTLE SKELETON! I AM NOT OKAY!
Aethea: (THAT FACE) turns to Corrin Stop making the frog speak.
Addic: yells and throws the frog 'cus it replied
Aethea: YOU KILLED HIM! YOU SENTENCED HIM TO DEATH!
The frog hits the water after minute or so. There is a splash. A giant serpent head rears up, eats the frog and sinks back down.
Aethea: SEE?
Castor: groans I can almost see the paperwork piling up… to Aethea YOU'RE DOING ALL THE STUFF FOR THE FROG. YOU'RE TRACKING DOWN THAT SERPENT.
Aethea: I can't.
Castor: YES YOU CAN. YOU WILL.
Aethea: No, I can't. I go on the patrol boat, I get arrested. Before they remember that I got let out and didn't escape again, an they let me out but that's just more work for you in the end, right?
Castor: (THAT FACE)
(fun fact: right now one of the songs that gave me the idea for castor and leo's silvertongue is playing on the radio.)
Nori: shrugs when Adiic falls, but screams once he realizes the frog went with him. NOOOOO!!!!
(i highly doubt you would know it. smug grin i listens to mostly christian songs and radio because parents. but. it's one of the universal languages, which are as follows: sarcasm, bordeom, tobymac, switchfoot and for KING & COUNTRY.)
(the song is proof of your love by for KING & COUNTRY. it was the "if i speak with a silver tongue, convince a crowd" part.)
Aethea: makes anotehr frog from a pebble THIS ONE SHALL NOT DIE. HE WILL BE IMMORTAL AND BELOVED BY THE NATIONS.
Castor: muttering He will be flammable and incredibly annoying.
Aethea: (THAT FACE AGAIN BUT I'M TOO LAZY TO GO LINK-HUNTING SO YEAH)
