synopsychic | [cw: blood] Who wants to live forever?

So, uh... I know we've got really important shit going on right now, but I could use some advice or help or something, because I've got something weird going on with... oh, hell with it; it's probably easier to just show you. If you're not good with blood or whatever the hell this is, you're gonna want to look away or whatever the mental equivalent of that is right now.

[And she's just going to wait for a bit to give people a chance to do just that, and not at all because she's weirded out and embarrassed by all of this herself.]

...Right. Okay. I'll just... get this over with, then. [There's a short pause as she steels herself, and then:] Anyone got any idea what the hell this shit is?

[She opens a livestream that focuses on her finger - or rather, the visibly healing gash on said finger and the trickle of mingled red and silver fluid oozing from it. Those who were there for the Achaia Jaunt or otherwise have reason to know will likely recognize the silver fluid as ichor of immortality, typically gotten through eating certain red-gold grapes during or after that Jaunt. Unfortunately, Yukino doesn't know that - and more importantly hasn't had any such grapes.]

I mean, I can teach it too. Just-- the long way. Where you have to do all these other things first.

And yeah, no, I doubt there's time left for any of us to do it more than once.

...So I'm immortal but I can't go anywhere.

[That kind of figures.]

... well. I'm immortal too and I can. I'll find you, pick you up, and take you places. We're not like super close or anything, but I do like you, Yukki, and you were good to my big brother when he popped up after Felicia smashed the her magic gatcha machine. That's not nothing, you know?

Thanks.

...Sorry, this is just... a lot.

Yeah, no, it's super a lot. It was a lot for me when I realized I had the grapes at all--or that I'd kept the demigod shit.

I can imagine.

[Yukino certainly would've felt uncomfortable as hell in Thorne's place.]

Yeah. I'd figured I'd try to grow old in the human body I got here in liminal space if I had a chance. Die of old age with Alcuin. Knowing I'm stuck with immortality this way too... it's a lot. I was stupid relieved when he also came home with the ichor blood.

I've got no idea how I'd even begin to explain this to the gang back home. Or anything about the last seven or eight years, really.

Yeah. Me neither. God, I don't even know how many of them would be still around after all this time. We were right on the edge of the vampire apocalypse.

And if Nyarlathotep's still on his rumor bullshit, it may not be all that safe for me to go home, especially if someone sees me bleed.

Oh Jesus. Yeah, no. Stay here where it's safe, Yukki. As weird and contradictory as that sounds.
