Ch5-SS: Underwater talking.
Huh, never thought of it like that.
"You are sort of an ass you know?"
"What? Do you really mean that? I thought I did someone a favor?"
In a bright room, full of books and Shelfs, sits a table with snacks and sorts of juice cans with two people sitting across. The man in red looks at his friend, A being who looks like a doll, only problem is that most of the body is only being moved by strings in the air.
"Like, don't you think he needed a second chance? Did you not feel a bit bad for such a life? I feel like I only did the right thing? And you can't blame me for something my child started?"
"No yea, I get that you wanted to help a bit and I am proud of you for doing that but... DID YOU THINK HE WOULD WANT THAT!?"
The man in red shouting with a bit of anger in his voice as he points at a picture showing a small child in pink and a brown hair boy staring at each other.
"Look, I helped you a bit thinking nothing more of it. Selling a book to a person? No problem. Getting souls from here to there? Not some thing I do all the time but I don't mind. But Changing ones body and putting someone else in their old body, I think you went a bit far."
The Doll, hearing this puts on what looks like a thinking pose. Thinking of everything its friend said of the choices it made.
"Maybe I went too far? But you do know that there has to be a sort of cost for such things? I just went for the quickest and safest thing to do for such people you know?"
The man in red, gave up trying to convince his friend on its choices and just ask a question.
"I guess so, but one thing, why did you call someone from another world? In my opinion it sort of makes no sense, like was that part of the cost or you can't have left a vessel sou-"
"Is that not funny? Seeing someone else in their body? And the quickest way to get rid of a broken soul is it not?"
"... Sometimes I forget you are a monster and all that."
"I don't know what that means but I will take it in a good way?"
The Doll, saying all that starts to grab a few cookies and throwing them to the air but they never come back down.
"I mean, I will explain that the other-worlder soul was needed for the vessel to keep living maybe? It was the closest thing that could work with such a body maybe? And he was meant to die that day so I think I also did him a big favor too?"
The man in red then recalls something, they are higher beings.
"Wait a minute, could you not have covered the cost of all that? I mean you have the power to last you at least 10,000 years?"
"In a way you are right? But I am not one to lose a body and wait 100 years to get another am I?"
The Doll is proud of its current vessel, a beautiful face, golden hair, and purple eyes. While not the best it had it was not one it would want to lose.
"Oh yeah, Forgot the price for you is losing your collection you freak."
"Thank you I guess?"
"That was not a complement. Hell you should make is easier for people to see you like a freak. Last time a human saw you he thought you were a women trapped by a monster and wanted to become a hero."
"Oh you mean that human that burned a few books? He should be in the dark waters by now? Maybe for the past 70 years?"
The Doll looking out the window only to see pitch black, with a few blinking lights here and there. It has always loved this view and would not trade it for the world.
"He must love it now too? Maybe the dark water made him see the error in his ways and regret burning a few books?"
"No, he was human. That man might be no more than paste in that water. And even then its been 73 years, there is nothing left."
"Huh? Is that so? Shame for him then I guess?"
While the two were talking, rapid footsteps were getting closer and then a another man's voice come out.
"HEY! I AM SORRY FOR COMING SO LATE A MAGIC ITEM WAS ACTING UP!"
A man in casual wear comes into view, having bits of bronze metal here and there on his clothes with googles having green lens sitting on his head.
"Sorry guys, did I miss much cause last thing I wanted was for it to blow up."
"No worries, just telling our friend here that they are a monster that lacks feelings."
"I am pretty sure you have never said that? And you are welcome to come at anytime, while I love the view here it does get lonely?"
The three friends gathered together, spent the time playing a few games and talking of the weird stuff they seen, only to end up at the first topic again.
"Look, I know I helped in making things for you, but I agree with Jester here. You sort of went a bit far messing with mortal lives."
"THANK YOU, I could not get it past its thick skull when it comes to human issues, it should just leave it at the Null-angels and never mess with normal lives again."
"I am sorry I guess? I will take it that since its you two against me that maybe I did something wrong? I will have to look back at my thoughts maybe?"
"... Hey how come when I say it you try to make many excuses but when he is here you admit there might be something wrong?"
"Cause you are mean?"
"OK, LISTEN HERE YOU FUC-"
"Hahaha, ok guys stop stop."
The man in Bronze eating snacks and having a good time, wanted to make sure of one thing.
"Hey, what do you plan with these kids? Like I know you do your own thing and all but what does changing peoples lives bring you in this area?"
The Doll, hearing such a question only answered the best way it could.
"Nothing I guess?
"Wait what do you mean?"
"I really plan nothing? I guess I just wanted to see what people do with a second chance to start over from different views?"
Jester, hearing this was sort of shocked, this thing never does things without getting something in return most of the time.
"I guess I am having hearing problems cause Doll just said something out of character..."
"I am normal last morning I checked I think?"
"THAT IS NOT WHAT I MEA- Oh whatever, guess we will just leave it, right Bronze?"
"Hmm, the cookie has certain chem's in it I can use- mumble mumble"
Jester, seeing this just smiled and smacked Bronze in the back of his head.
"OW! WAIT WHAT?!... Oh sorry forgot, what where you saying?"
"Leave the kids on there own, yay for nay?"
Bronze, rubbing his head give it a bit of thought choose what he thought was best.
"I mean, I think its alright we helped them now and then, got to clean up a mess Doll made"
"But there is no mess that I see of?"
"Shut it, this is not a question for you"
"Ok, I guess we will leave it at that. But lets talk about something else, its boring."
The Three friends, went back to talking and doing random things in the bottom of the ocean floor.
