Hybrid Kingdom PSL
{ the “beach” episode }
for some more light-hearted/chaotic stuff happening at the hotel throughout the plot
no subject
He gives the impression of a cold fish at first, but there's definitely heat of some kind simmering beneath his chilly demeanor and Inari's intrigued. His eyebrows shoot up at the answer and he sits up straighter, chin lifting off his hand.]
That's quite the mistake! And yet you've stayed to see the battle through to the end, have you?
no subject
(( Especially when said problem will, if not stopped or mitigated, concern the whole world. ))
He also made it a little personal when he came after me directly. Twice.
(( He, the very least of Set's enemies by Emmanuel's own estimation. That guy's petty. But maybe Emmanuel can be, too. ))
Horus saved me both times.
(( Just to clarify he's not some super special bestest boy ever who could've bested a god on his own. ))
no subject
[Inari's more than happy to throw critical levels of shade at Set, and only gets more so every time he learns something new about him. A pitiful excuse for a god.]
It's hard to believe that Horus and his father come from the same pantheon as him, isn't it? Never mind the same family. They've both been exemplars of courtesy and respect since I arrived.
(assuming this is pre-fake war)
My understanding, which is not at all nuanced, is that theirs is a pantheon that strives for balance... I suppose in that light it could make more sense that they're all fulfilling their assigned roles: Set's being chaos and destruction.
no subject
[Inari shrugs, an unbothered smile lighting his lips.] But then, there's nothing easier than spotting a plan's weaknesses in retrospect, is there? And I've never been put in charge of building and maintaining an entire civilization, thank goodness for that.
no subject
(( But he'd concede that his experience with such things is vastly limited by his short lifespan and the mere fact that he's human. ))
I only say that because I agree with you. It seems that nourishing growth and progress does take more time and energy.
no subject
[Inari rests his chin on his palm, idly tapping his jawline with his fingertips.]
Wouldn't it be a shame if the answer was as simple as... "well, gods can become madmen just as easily as humans," and the one who happened to lose his mind had destructive chaos as his dominion? With a different roll of the dice, we might've had a profusion of nature or a baby boom instead.
no subject
(( Not the profusion of nature, the part about gods going mad. Who can say if it's a possibility or if it's happened before. Maybe that last Earthly extinction event wasn't the randomness of the universe but some mad, sad, or bored gad deciding they wanted a reset. Could it really be that easy? No, it can't have been if it's belief that fuels them. Things to keep him up another night at another time. ))
Is it different with you? My understanding of o-kami is limited.
