We've updated the rules! Erasing is now a free for all, points available any day of the week, and you can call trials whenever you like. You know, like that one game.
Ahh. In an unknown city of dead people, no one can hear you scream…
[ this is very ominous but not like, on purpose. Or is it. Who can tell. ] Not enough monologues for our darling reapers, though! You’ll have to be an intern at best.
anyway. he doesn't stop this at all, tilting his head a bit into the little tap - expression falling easily into a little smile, somewhere on the edge of mischief, voice softening in the proximity. ]
I don't think the novelty's worn off. [ what a non answer. what part is novel. (yes) ] What's a new life but a new opportunity?
[ ah, well. fei du tilts his head a bit, subtly, into that hand, into the one on his pulse. he doesn't flinch or move beyond that though, his heartbeat perfectly steady and unbothered, and his gaze stays locked on rang lee's.
there's an intensity to it, though - there's a little mischief to it, too. it's hard to get a good read on fei du, even like this, but that shines. ]
And what are you implying, Rang? I wonder if I should be offended.
[his smile grows a little wider at that, thumb pressing harder. not too hard, just enough. he's a little disappointed that he can't feel it beating wildly under his skin, feels strange that this effort to touch isn't rooted in something violent, for once.]
Can't be offended if it's something I'd do myself.
[TAPS HEAD well that's just the vibe, he doesn't actually tap his head,]
Unless you're like Blondie, all principled and self-righteous.
[ just enough is fine - his chin tips up a little further, but only responsively. there's no flutter, even at that, and his eyes are a little dark? this is unfortunate.
they light up a little with that, though, and he laughs, finally, eyes crinkling up in the corners. ]
No, no, I wouldn't say that. [ "principled", "self righteous" ] Like recognizes like.
[ there's a pause, and his voice dips a little, almost a purr. ] In a myriad of ways.

Eugh. [EUGH,] They're already stuck answering questions and looking after us. I don't want to imagine what an intern would have to do.
no subject
He reaches out to give one of the devil wings a tug. it’s touch week and I’m afraid. ]
Still, it’s not a bad look. If you’re looking for a part time job like Wolfwood and the others. Much of a babysitter?
no subject
I don't take care of just anyone. [he has standards??] And I'm not into free labor.
[imagine WORKING in capitalism out of your free WILL,]
Are they even getting paid?
no subject
Terrible business model. [ fei du local capitalist. but, he looks thoughtful even as the hearts wiggle on his head. ] Maybe with their revival.
no subject
Imagine dying and then waking up with ten dollars in your pocket.
[what could a banana cost... twenty dollars? he moves on from batting at hearts, moving his hand down to tap a finger against Fei Du's cheek]
Would you be annoyed, or too glad to be alive again to care?
no subject

no subject
You must be the ambitious type.
[Rang does another little tippy tap, before trailing his finger and thumb down the side of Fei Du's face, neck, thumb casually finding his pulse,]
But I wonder. How far will you go for that opportunity?
no subject
