yo. it’s your favorite god, tezcatlipoca

[ is he saying this just because he knows people will argue over it? absolutely. this is also not the point of this post, so, ]

I’m sure you’ve either heard or personally seen how our base is in a pretty shit state at the moment. hopefully you’re done crying about it since it’s time to move on, especially when it’s an opportunity

see the way I see it, home base has a hell of a lot of remodeling on the horizon so why not take advantage? this is a prime opportunity to make it, you know, less shit

you ever had a bright idea for how to improve the place? let's hear it. I know exactly who to bother about getting shit done so I’ll take all the good ideas and see what we can do

of course we’re going to be doing the bulk of work regardless. a lot easier to sell an idea when they don’t have to worry about who’s actually going to be getting it done. might as well add our personal touch to spruce up the place, right?

[ ooc ; he’s serious, actually,,,

aka this is an IC companion post to a player plot to help with rebuilding and remodeling the base! While characters can suggest whatever they want on this post, please comment with your serious requests on the companion OOC post. if you’d just be interested in contributing AC points to this effort, see here! ]

you get half credit for scoundrel because that's true

but only half because you're damn lucky I don't have smiting powers at the moment you know that right

[gyve]

I've been smited enough that the threat doesn't turn my head anymore

( smited? smote? smitten? ... kaladin gives up )

But I'll keep it in mind

[fursuit]

that so? that's usually a one and done kind of deal. your smitings must have been the divine equivalent of a slap on the wrist

what'd you do to earn them?

[gyve]

It isn't very easy to talk about so I'd prefer not to
Perhaps some other time
Sorry for leading you into that
You're a curious person so naturally you'd ask

No other time was as harsh as the first so I agree with you

[fursuit]

don't worry about it. you can tell me if you feel like you want to, but I get the gist.

[ It's sincere, not that it's clear in text or his TikTokified voice, but honestly, he prefers that. It's also why he immediately returns to being a shithead right after... ]

overlooking your lecturing

technically speaking ereshkigal and I are enemies back home so this is being nice relatively speaking. could be way worse!

[ that's better right ]

[gyve]

( ... wow... )

I will Tez
Not today but soon

What makes you enemies
Is it your status as gods of death
Do you compete in that way

[fursuit]

nah luckily that doesn't get competitive. I think every god of death is happy so long as a soul ends up somewhere. with maybe an exception if multiple get attached to someone but I haven't heard of any of those cases ever conflicting

but she's got a summoner back home waiting for her same as I'll be heading back to daybit, and they've got different ideas on how the end of the world's going to play out. no chance for compromise on that so it's a fight to the death

eventually anyways

[gyve]

( ... )

That's
Surprisingly sweet

( then it's ruined by the gladiatorial-ass battle he describes )

Not the fight to the death
You know what I'm going to say about that

What does she and her summoner want for the world's end

[fursuit]

they think they're saving it

but can't tell you more than that. it's important that they figure out the problem themselves

no spoilers for ereshkigal to put it another way

[gyve]

You say the strangest things sometimes

( "No spoilers"... for people's destinies? kinda cute.......... )

They should keep trying till the last moment
You like me because I think that way
Isn't that why you should like them too

[fursuit]

I don't dislike them. I respect the resolve that's led them to even end up on my doorstep. they had plenty of chances to get annihilated before ever making it to where daybit and I have been hanging out

granted I don't like how they've been conducting their battles but I know you'd be on their side of things there. their lack of casualties isn't to my taste

it'll be interesting to see how it all plays out that's for sure

[gyve]

I suppose it is none of my business if you like each other or not

( nvm that he literally made it his business, like sure jan... )

But you're right
I can't respect that you want men and women to die
You are what the cosmere made you however
Plenty of people blame you for their miseries and I refuse to be one of them

They call it a scapegoat
I learned the word recently

[fursuit]

scapegoat might be a little too kind but I'll still take it

but if it makes you feel any better I like ereshkigal. don't feel any ill will towards her

so you don't have to worry about us trying to stab each other in the back and getting you to patch us up. that's good news right

[gyve]

Of course that's good news
I'm sick of seeing you so often

( for OTHER people's random wounds accumulated when they stumble out of the bar drunk )

That was a joke

[fursuit]

I know it is

or rather if it wasn’t? doesn’t matter. you’re stuck with me at this point

also I’ll take back what I said slightly. she might stab me in the back but probably not. we’ve got enough of a truce going on

[gyve]

( ... )

Let's just try to get through this
And then when you two go back to the end of the world you can do whatever you want because I won't be there

[fursuit]

yep! nothing you need to concern yourself with

all the headaches I'm sending your way are going to be bar related don't worry

[gyve]

Then I'll see you this weekend
Around the same time as always

( after midnight... it's always after midnight... the sloppy drunks begin to Emerge )
