Oh, I know almost nothing about demons.

[satisficing]

[ ]

But then why did you...

[riverbeans]

[r u ok viktor]

I'm just not not saying there might be one or two here.

[satisficing]

[There is a pause.]

Are there one or two here who seem like they may be demons to you?

[Charles are you................... fantasy racist?]

[riverbeans]

Well, not exactly. They just told me outright.

[he sounds very chill about this too so no.]

[satisficing]

[HELLO, DON'T JUST SAY THIS? Charles is making his soul ascend.]

I--they told you? Who?

[WHO IS A DEMON?]

[riverbeans]

Uh... give me a moment.

[starts texting]

[satisficing]

[He startles ever so slightly and raises a hand.]

Oh, no-- That's okay. You... don't have to say if it's... It was just... [THIS CONVERSATION IS KILLING HIM.] You made it seem as if demons are dangerous, and then you tell me... you've... heard there are demons onboard with us.

[riverbeans]

[looks up from his message]

Nah, he said it wasn't a secret, but I wanted to double-check with him anyway. It's Owner, and he says that if you have questions, you can go to him.

[satisficing]

[WHY IS FRANCY A DEMON]

Ah. I... see.

[He barely sees. He does remember Owner briefly from the pod room. Are demons usually concerned for your well being?]

I'll have to speak with him later then.

[riverbeans]

[because francy herself is a demon]

He's a friendly guy, and easygoing. I like chatting with him.

[satisficing]

[can't believe she picked up this fuck after i played count d]

He did not seem disagreeable in the chamber room, no. He did not act strange to you?

["strange"]

[riverbeans]

No weirder than anyone else here. [he shrugs.] He's probably not going to think exactly like a human, though that in itself isn't worrying at the moment. Not like we're always shining beacons of good mindsets.

[satisficing]

[He gets a look on his face that is, like, he wants to be offended, but he cannot, and he cannot deny that this is true.]

Right. You seem... to take all of this rather easily.

[riverbeans]

[yeah that's right]

Well... a lot of it's pretty strange, but it's easier to deal with if you take it in stride, right?

[satisficing]

I suppose that is one way of looking at it, yes. The master of optimism back home, Mr. Charles?

[riverbeans]

Just Charles is fine. I don't know if I'd call myself an optimist, per se... Life's just too short to spend it panicking, I guess.
