Hey, Guy? My hair's getting kind of long... Could you come cut it for me? I'd do it myself, but I can't really see back there...


[Filtered to Ion//So hackable it hurts Unhackable]

Ion, can I talk to you? It's important.

[Now that those are out of the way, Luke rests his chin in his hand and stares off to the side, lost in thought. The thing he wanted to talk to Ion about... It's been weighing heavily on his mind ever since he heard it. Luke isn't sure what to think of it, or even how to feel about it. There's a sort of happiness inside him, sure, but... he can't deny the hesitation and confusion he feels. So, after a few minutes, he opens up the journal again to ask the general populace:]

What do you think it means to have a soul?

[Luke knew he was taking a risk by asking his original question, and he thought he was ready to walk into it. But he isn't. He can't just talk about this with someone he just met. He just can't...]

... I'm sorry. I don't want to talk about that, okay?

[seiriald]

[She figured it would get to that point, there were a lot of things she wouldn't want to share with someone she just met, either. But she doesn't like leaving him feeling like this...]

... Now you have to pay me.

[fabrecation]

... What? Pay you? [But... h-he doesn't have any gald...]

[seiriald]

Yes! I don't give out this kind of information for free, y'know! [PAY UP.]

[fabrecation]

[... Dear lord she is just like Anise.]

I don't have anything to pay you with!

[seiriald]

Oh really? [Tip-toeing on the border of troll territory~.]

Tell me, if one of your friends does something nice for you, do you actually pay them with money?

[fabrecation]

Oh... Is that what this is about?

[seiriald]

Maybe~. Besides, what use does anyone have for currency here?

[fabrecation]

I guess you're right...

So, um, what do you want?

[seiriald]

How about a nice, tasty nibble of that soul of yours?

[fabrecation]

... You're joking, right? [Please say you're just trollin'.]

[seiriald]

Maybe, maybe not! [A soft giggle escapes, but her voice becomes a little softer and more serious for the next part.]

... I'd like to see your soul, myself... It must be beautiful...

[fabrecation]

[Mrrrf. B| She's trollin', isn't she. Though that last part...]

Cheyenne said it was a soft green color. Really rich, too. And... young.

[seiriald]

... You know Cheyenne? [Now you have her full attention, probably no trolling for a while.]

Green... that's the color of life and perseverance, always unique, always sought for in a strong soul...

[fabrecation]

Life, huh... [That's... so strange. All of this is so strange. He's a replica; why should he have a soul? Especially one that represents life and perseverance?]

... Yeah, I know her. I met her a while ago.

[seiriald]

Is it wrong to assume that she had influence in you asking this question? [It sounded like her to say something that would provoke such thoughts.]

[fabrecation]

Oh... No, you're not wrong. I guess you could say she started it.

My brain wants to think Luke is a she.

[seiriald]

Started it... [With what he's asking, and how he evaded speaking about the circumstances of his birth...]

So can I see it for myself? If you don't mind.

According to fanart, Luke makes an adorable female.

[fabrecation]

... Wait, you can see souls too?

... Visualizing now brb

[seiriald]

Yeah, sometimes I get lucky and can hear them sing, too! It takes some effort to actually get to that point, though...

Yeah you go ahead and do that. ;D

[fabrecation]

Sing?

[... Well. No harm in getting a second opinion. Actually, that might help him out a little.] Um, I wouldn't mind if you saw my soul...

[seiriald]

Really? You mean it?! [This makes her so excited, actually getting to match up a voice with another soul.]

[fabrecation]

Y-Yeah, I mean it! I wouldn't say so if I didn't!

[seiriald]

O-kay! It's a date! [Back to trolling times~.]

What's your name, mister?

[fabrecation]

A date?! [Did she really just-

fff name. Right.] I-I'm Luke. Uh... What's yours?
