(I have to run most worldbuilding by my friend Luna because we co-own the universe Resh and Juni are from- so I have an idea for an official species name, but I can’t use it because it hasn’t been approved. I do have an official placeholder though, so that’s good-)
Resh: Well okay then “We call ourselves Children of the Light. We… our “blood” isn’t technically blood. It’s highly concentrated Light.” He narrows his eyes. “…Which probably sounds like bullshit.”
Salmook: he doesn't seem too put off by the gold blood, but he does seem put off by the explanation "It's… light? But- but how?"
Tseth: So they’re skykids. Great. What the hell. “…A bit, but probably not for the same reason you’re thinking. Highly concentrated light is what most of the other races in our world are made of… more the fact that your people are the Children of the Light.”
Alex: What “The crystals are also.. I’m not gonna think about that too much.”
Resh: How the fuck does that part sound like bullshit “…What-?”
Parvus: He hops up into Tseth’s head and chitters at Resh, looking weirdly annoyed.
Tseth: He sighs. This isn’t going to make any sense. “The children of the light, or skykids, as we call them, are… mostly a mystery. They don’t speak and seem to be confined to specific parts of our world. From what I’ve seen, they only exist to clean up the darkness that our Resh created.” His wings shift slightly as he speaks.
(oohh crossover episode when)
(besides now, I guess)
(That would be… chaotic. Sounds great)
(This sounds like absolute gibberish to Resh rn 💀 and it probably sounds worse to Salmook)
(Oh Dear now we need a crossover episode)
(Salmonella is just watching them like 😀)
(Autism Stare is just sitting there like “this is horrible can I go home now”)
(Short yeehaw man waiting for Mr. Teeth to stop infodumping so they can leave the cultist camp)
(Btw the context for the nickname Autism Stare: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/2603712278492064/)
(Resh is literally the 5th stare)
(Mr. Teeth is just because autocorrect doesn’t like the name Tseth and corrected it to teeth 😔)
(Anyway I should respond now)
Resh: He raises an eyebrow. “That sounds… interesting.” He shakes his head. “Probably shouldn’t dwell on that for too long. Let’s get out of here.” He stands up, sprinting to the dead leader and taking his knife. “I’ll be taking this, thank you-“
Salmook: he nods in agreement, still very much confused about the others, but he understands that now isn't the time for that
"That would be… better. Let's go."
Alex: “Probably for the best.” He stands up, collecting the light crystals from the ground.
Tseth: “I’ll have to take a detour. Back in the forest one of the cultists knocked one of my swords onto the ground and left it there like an idiot. You three just head back to the clearing and I’ll be there eventually.”
Resh: He walks back towards Alex, Tseth, and Salmook, spinning his knife and tucking it into his boot. “You better not get yourself kidnapped again.”
Parvus: He looks at Resh, then looks at Tseth and squawks his agreement, still perched on his head.
Alex: He looks over at Tseth. “He has a point.”
Tseth: He spreads his wings out, stretching them. “They can’t catch me if I’m flying.” He grabs Parvus from his head, holding him in his hand. “Don’t think you can stay there when I am, though.”
Parvus: He huffs and curls up in Tseth’s hand, determined to go with him.
Resh: Looks at Parvus “He’s such a stubborn little fuck.”
Tseth: Sighs “Then you’re getting put in a pocket.” He holds open one of the pockets in his pants, dispensing Parvus inside.
