[NOT THE DOUBLE TEXT. Lucas does look like he would fit in here. He does love a good cup of tea.]

I do love a good cup of tea... [But he gazes at this table that conveniently only has two chairs and place settings laid out.] I'm not certain that I trust this one, though?
faithkept: (was it all a disguise)

Were people going bald?

[HE HAS SOMEHOW NOT RUN INTO A SINGLE BALDED SOUL...]

I was thinking more about those awful chocolates.

[Not the double hehes.

He just smiles, though.]


Who would need chocolate for that, my charming dear?

[He has the power of god and poetry on his side. Lucas does pick up one of the teacups after that, though, if only to peer into the liquid... Thinking about how the chairs play musical chairs but they aren't even sitting.]
faithkept: (sing with glee)

[YOU WOULD INFLICT ME, AKI, WITH AN HOUR OF HAVING TO DO MY TAGS IN RHYME]

What a silly thing to say. [He tips the cup a bit, so the liquid's just near the edge.] Perhaps we should pour it all out so no one is tempted to have a try? No lovebirds or hair loss on our watch. We'll be doing a public service.
faithkept: (will penetrate your heart)

[Gooby tea... He'll let the cup tip and watch the tea pour, setting it back down empty on its plate after.]

The field of public service is often an uphill battle, I suppose. Shall we see what else there is to be found around here, then? Unless you prefer a tea party in which the guests can't indulge in even a single cup.
faithkept: (if only for a season)

[HE KEEPS BEING ASSIGNED PRIEST even at home he is assigned priest, this is not at all shocking.]

As a teacher rather than a figure of the church.

I have no desire to be a leader, really... Proselytizing isn't something that I have much of an interest in.

[He's not a door to door Mormon about his weirdass Catholicism...]

By comparison, I've always wanted to become a teacher and help the children of our nation learn and grow.
faithkept: (through my atmosphere)

[personal profile] faithkept 2025-02-27 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
A maternal aura? [MOMMY... He just laughs, though, moving over to pour the other cup of tea out, too. Just to make it even.]

My mother was a teacher before me and the reason why I became interested, so I think that's a very lovely compliment.
faithkept: (there is salt on my cheeks)

[momther...]

I did, yes. [A nod!] I always admired her.
faithkept: (did you get enough love)

[personal profile] faithkept 2025-02-27 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
She did, yes. It's rather common in my home.

[PEOPLE DIE SO MUCH.]
faithkept: (in water cool and cleansing)

[personal profile] faithkept 2025-02-28 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
Ah - yes... [A slow nod. HERE HE GOES AGAIN.] It's a curse that ends the lives of our people by the age of twenty-three.
faithkept: (hunting your soreness down)

[personal profile] faithkept 2025-02-28 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
[There's just a thin little smile in response.]

I was able to have more time with her than some people are granted, at least.
faithkept: (i want to hear)

[personal profile] faithkept 2025-03-01 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
I should hope so. [The thinness to his smile leaves, but the smile itself remains. Heaven is good!] I've always known it to be a much better and more wondrous place than what we've found here so far, even before things started going awry.
