Right.

[Alec appears in front of the camera with an enormous rack, antlers, that is. And while they aren't out of proportion exactly (well as in proportion as they can be to an otherwise human head) it would make a stag take a second look]

I've had these bloody things a month or more. [and it wasn't the only thing he had, but he wasn't talking about the rest of it.]

That thing is no help. [he jerked his thumb at the spectral whippet shaped grim gnawing on a squeaky toy that looked like a strangled chicken]

If anyone has any suggestion on how to get them to go away, I'd appreciate it. Anything short of a saw. I've tried meditation-- I've tried sleeping more. [though he'd failed at both. Probably because of the damned antlers]

I'm out of ideas.

And I think I've got something else now. Magic I mean. How the hell do you lot handle all this? I just want to go home and read a book for God's sake.

[though which home he really didn't want to think too hard about]

[also he hopes no one notices the user name as he didn't notice it until it was too late to do anything about it]

Everything else, but you does.

Wormholes, alternate timelines where the love of my life is a kitsune princess and her fathers are one of my vassals and in my world; her husband. Why not?

Oni are still fictional, but only as I know them. Religion? Same. Other worlds, they're real, so fine, I'll conquer them all and become the Demon King of all worlds. [SHING!] No problem!

But competent smart idiot friends you don't trust with blades doesn't make sense. Either you can't trust them because they're idiots, or they're competent so you should trust them, so which is it?

I don't like to have blades near my scalp either, but that's just honed instinct from when I was eight.

So their weaknesses are being clumsy? All of them?

You have two friends.

[... HE FEELS SO SAD FOR YOU RIGHT NOW! He is the Devil King and has more allies than that!]

Pardon. Two idiot friends.

[JUDGING YOU.]
konpeito_aji: (Why are you like this?)

Maybe you should try adding more people to your base of acquaintances. You're not a monk, are you?

[Did he ask that? He thinks he did, but it's worth asking again!]
konpeito_aji: (I'm listening - for now)

Because you're too busy accidentally turning yourself halfway into a deer, and not having sex.

[Tilts his head!]

[It takes him a bit to get the slang for that.]


It's just if you were in such a relationship already, I could understand where it'd be...

[SMIRK] Relaxing.
konpeito_aji: (Say that after you win a round)

[personal profile] konpeito_aji 2021-04-14 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, you're clearly not tense.

[Poor man. Oda's DEFINITELY convinced he needs help.]

[AS IT IS THOUGH, it's taking all of Nobunaga's self-control not to laugh.]

[He has no idea what happened, but maybe the phone was headbutted by antlers.]


It doesn't have to be a relationship. But find something that relaxes you. That you enjoy. Actually enjoy. Not torture yourself with.

Hot springs?
