[YOU'RE WELCOME, PUNK, THAT'S WHAT YOU GET]

Good. Try not to let him eat anything strange. Thanks.

[bittybat]

[???]

Anything strange?

[swordfucker]

Yeah, like hearts.

[bittybat]

[what]

Raw hearts?

[WHAT]

[swordfucker]

Yeah. Or bones. Actually, especially bones. I guess he can have a heart if he's good.

[He's having too much fun over here... But yeah, Damian!! Raw hearts!! And Guren kisses that mouth.]

[bittybat]

[Sounds of vomiting in the background.]

Are you serious? I'm not giving him raw hearts and bones. He's not a dog?

Is his diet that way because of what he is?

[GOD BEING A CANNIBAL, HE HATES THIS.]

[swordfucker]

I'm not telling you to give it to him, I'm telling you he might pocket them himself.

I think it's just because he's weird and his world's even weirder, but if you want to think of it that way, I'm not stopping you.

[bittybat]

Has he ever eaten the remains of anyone here?

[swordfucker]

Bones? I think he might have chewed on a skeleton once. But not of anyone he knew here. They appeared out of nowhere.

He ate some harpy hearts, too. Pretty gross.

[bittybat]

As a vegetarian, it's exceedingly disgusting.

But don't call his diet gross. As long as he's not eating parts of anyone here, it's not something worth admonishing yet.

[Damn. He mistook Guren's "gross," and now he just looks like a stupid softy.]

[swordfucker]

[Can't wait for Damian to realize Guren is the biggest softy for Dex, specifically, because they're grossly in love.]

That's your line, huh. He can and knows how to eat good food, and he enjoys it. Strawberries are his favorite.

It's more like a bad habit from that horrible place he was stuck in.

[bittybat]

[It'll be great... when he can and will blackmail Guren with Dextera's existence. :)]

Fair enough. If I can become a vegetarian, he can learn to eat other things besides bones and hearts. I'm not giving him any.

There's too much food available with better taste for it to be wasted on his eccentric diet.

[This is why he's giving Dextera Thanksgiving in the fall!! But also because he said he would show him... Fuck.]

[swordfucker]

[Calm down, Satan!!]

There you go. You tell him.

guren gets this later in the day. hm.

[bittybat]

No bones or hearts were eaten. We have a goat.

hm.

[swordfucker]

Congrats on the goat. I guess he was behaved.

The animals are mixed, aren't they? What happened to what the goat was crossed with?

[bittybat]

It didn't survive.

The goat was mixed with a type of bird. Purifying it split them, but it appears the half making up a lesser part is destroyed.

[swordfucker]

[Oh shit.]

Damn it. Is Dextera okay?

[bittybat]

As okay as he could be considering what he's done before. I think it bothered him. We need to see what other animals can be purified to help us, but I don't think he should try again for a while. I talked to him.

[EVEN THOUGH GUREN PROBABLY THINKS HE'S A BRAT]

Have you see his neck?

[HA... HA...]

1/3

[swordfucker]

He's got personal reasons not to like it. If you ask me, the animals aren't important right now. Pocket that information and save it for later, but don't make him do it again just because it "might" be helpful.

[swordfucker]

[After that serious message is sent, though, Guren stares back at the last question... and laughs. For a good minute.]

[swordfucker]

Yeah, I saw it.

[He saw it real close!]

[bittybat]

[This is awful, thanks.]

I'm aware of the personal reasons. The animals are important for our continued survival. I'm not trying to acquire vanity animals, only necessary ones. He can't keep being scared of himself. He can help in moderation.

[Sadly, he sends this about the time the last one comes in, and he's so confused for several minutes. It sounds so... casual? Guren saw it and...??? Wait--]

I'm not talking about THOSE marks. I can't believe I had to watch him confirm they were erotic. I meant the other one. He'd been strangled. He said that one wasn't sexual.

It was his brother. He touched his neck and the fingers matched.

[swordfucker]

[HMMM Well, he'll let that first part drop.]

I saw that, too. That was before everything else. I already spoke to his brother. It's taken care of.

They have problems, but they'll work them out. Dextera knows not to hide it if something like that happens again, now.

[bittybat]

Why did his brother strangle him?

[swordfucker]

Think of it this way. His brother was the bird. Don't you think that would leave you with some rage?

But when I spoke to him, he was sad more than he was angry. He wants Dextera to be safe, and he realizes he's a danger to him. It's Dextera who doesn't think it's a problem. There's a lot for them to work through.
