  1. [16:47] Salthiel says, "Aw... How sweet."
  2. [16:47] Rikona Harimoto asks, "Mm, what is sweet, Salthiel?"
  3. [16:48] Salthiel exclaims, "The pie!"
  4. [16:48] {Item} You drop Pumpkin Pie.
  5. [16:48] {Item} You picked up Pumpkin Pie. Dropped by Salthiel. .
  6. [16:48] Salthiel says, "So cute together~"
  7. [16:48] Salthiel says, "The pie and the crust~"
  8. [16:49] Rikona Harimoto says, "I see. Erm- Mr. Heifang- I-. "
  9. [16:49] Ban Heifang asks, "Um?"
  10. [16:49] Salthiel savors his pumpkin pie, eating so innocently.
  11. (Salthiel)
  12. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  13. [16:50] Salthiel says, "I sit here. I feel like I have a mom and dad."
  14. [16:50] Salthiel asks, "Can I?"
  15. [16:50] Ban blinks.
  16. (Ban Heifang)
  17. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  18. [16:50] Rikona Harimoto says, "Perhaps Mr. Heifang would take you in, yes, but I have other duties. "
  19. [16:50] Ban Heifang says, ". . If that eases your suffering."
  20. [16:50] Salthiel chomps his pumpkin pie, smiling at Ban.
  21. (Salthiel)
  22. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  23. [16:51] Salthiel says, "It's okay, Lady Rikona. It's only to ease my suffering."
  24. [16:51] Salthiel says, "To live in the midst of an illusion."
  25. [16:51] Salthiel says, "Of having a father and a mother."
  26. [16:52] Rikona Harimoto says, "Perhaps you can get to know Ms. Yukimura and have a big sister? I feel that would be more appropriate. "
  27. [16:52] Salthiel says, "No. To live in the grandiose of illusion is better than living in the wake of reality."
  28. [16:52] Salthiel says, "In this short moment of illusion, I imagine you my mother, and him my father."
  29. [16:52] Salthiel says, "But I know this is just to feed my fantasy."
  30. [16:52] Salthiel says, "In a few minutes."
  31. [16:52] Salthiel says, "It will go back to reality."
  32. [16:52] Rikona Harimoto says, "I see..."
  33. [16:52] Salthiel exclaims, "Mhm!"
  34. [16:53] Salthiel nibbles his pie.
  35. (Salthiel)
  36. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  37.  
  38. [16:53] Salthiel asks, "Want some, Lady Rikona?"
  39. [16:54] Rikona Harimoto says, "I had something to eat a bit earlier, but I thank you kindly for the offer. "
  40. [16:54] Salthiel says, "Okay~"
  41. [16:55] Ban felt immediately uncomfortable by the allegation. It was not the position he had been put in, or even Salthiel's presence. Rather, the accumulated heaps of muffled pity he could not refute or deny continued to revolt within his lethargic core, and he ought to turn that hurt into something else.
  42.  
  43. "Well, then. Luckily for you, the people of Huangzhou are agents of good more often than not, child."
  44.  
  45. The Heifang shifted sideways, landing an outstretched palm across the top of Salthiel's head, as hues of abyss black -which fundamentally lacked a hue- stared onto the contrastingly pale complexion of the boy, ornamented by strands of brightest ashen. How discrepant.
  46.  
  47. "You are welcome to live among me, my brother, and our associates, if you so wish. We will feed you and provide you with proper abode- and you will not have to eat from the garbage again, as you've made sure to remark."
  48. (Ban Heifang)
  49. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  50. [16:59] Teriesh faintly smiled at the sound of Ban's offer, to include yet another poor soul into the rapidly growing mass of people that was the Heifang brothers and their allies.
  51.  
  52. "How likely do you think it would be to succeed if we were to ask for a second property for our steadily growing group? What do you think, Ban?"
  53. (Teriesh Silve)
  54. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  55. [17:00] Ban Heifang says, "Our Regent might just be merciful enough to attend to our plea. I believe it is likely."
  56. [17:00] Teriesh Silve says, "Well, there is no harm in it, Aelia. If you have need to upgrade from that standard chestplate in the future, let me know."
  57. [17:00] Teriesh Silve says, "I'll charge a reasonable amount, less than the standard, for sure."
  58. [17:03] The boy held the halfway eaten pie with both hands, allowing crumbles of bread fall off the floor, thereby summoning ants. However, they were so tiny, and almost non-existent that the boy, unconsciously, ignored their presence.
  59.  
  60. His head tilted, lips parting lightly as the Heifang spoke.
  61.  
  62. A tear fell off his left eye as Ban patted his head, running down his cheek. Yet it was not transparent, but an otherworldly red; it was blood.
  63.  
  64. So quickly did he wipe it off before offering the adult a soft smile.
  65.  
  66. "The thought itself is more than enough, sir Ban," responded the boy.
  67.  
  68. "But, I would be an outcast for I am not an agent of good. At least not yet. Though in the future, I wish to be of something else," he said and rested both hands on his lap.
  69.  
  70. "Thank you for the offer. But, I cannot accept it. My principles cannot accept it. In return, however, my aid is yours. If you're in need of something, then I'll repay this kindness even in death. Because I am an Izhuran."
  71. (Salthiel)
  72. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  73. [17:03] Rikona Harimoto says, "What a kind offer, Mr. Heifang. I offered him something similar, but he declined. Anyhow-"
  74. [17:03] Rikona Harimoto says, "I'll be off to patrol, it was a pleasure speaking Salthiel. "
  75. [17:04] Salthiel says, "Please be safe, or I'll commit seppuku if you get even just a tiny bit of cut on your finger."
  76. [17:04] Giara whispers something.
  77. [17:04] Aelia Drusus asks, "Commit..What?"
  78. [17:05] Salthiel says, "Seppuku."
  79. [17:05] Salthiel says, "Slash slash, guts out."
  80. [17:05] Yui Yukimura says, "Sodoku"
  81. [17:05] Salthiel says, "Boom."
  82. [17:05] Salthiel says, "Die."
  83. [17:05] Conrad Creed whispers something.
  84. [17:05] Rikona Harimoto says, "I should be okay. I'll speak with you all later. "
  85. [17:05] Salthiel says, "Mhm"
  86. [17:05] Teriesh Silve says, "...Ceremonial disembowelment done by those of Sheng."
  87. [17:06] Teriesh Silve says, "Its something they do to retain honor or something alongthose lines."
  88. [17:06] Aelia taps the end of her chin, simply trying to process this mad mad version of suicide by these uncivilized brutes.
  89. (Aelia Drusus)
  90. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  91.  
  92. [17:06] Salthiel exclaims, "Yep!"
  93. [17:07] "Hm."
  94.  
  95. A set of nigh stone-etched, icy features threatened to shift into a scowl. It was of Ban's custom to face resistance and opposition with irritation, but rather, a mild expression of mute lament towards the maintenance of Salthiel's relative state of misery.
  96.  
  97. "I will not force you to take my aid, for it would be just as vile to do that as would it be not to make the offer, however- do know we are watching over you. Until you decide to come to our-"
  98.  
  99. The Heifang wambled backwards, staring at their home. It was in fairly better and more well-maintained a state than in months prior, but it was still minuscule.
  100.  
  101. "Fancy. Cabin."
  102. (Ban Heifang)
  103. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  104. [17:12] "It looks homey. I think that's the house where I got some food too. I don't know, but it's okay. I leave the garbage in a good condition so it won't be all over the place after I've scourged through it," said Saliel with a light laugh, looking over towards the said fancy cabin.
  105.  
  106. "And it's fine, sir Ban. I appreciate it, though. But, because I am an Izhuran. I shall do the same," he said.
  107.  
  108. "So! If you need help. I'll try to come running. Even if I fall flat on a poop."
  109. (Salthiel)
  110. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  111. [17:16] "I see. But please, do indulge to one request of mine-"
  112.  
  113. Ban's hand drafted its way off Salthiel's scalp, folding digits on top of the phalanxes of its counterpart. His brows furrowed themselves inwards further, angling his expression into one of a most reprehensive nature.
  114.  
  115. "You are not to fuss the garbage. If it is required, and it will be, we shall feed you with the meals of our mornings, our lunch, as well as our supper. Are we understood?"
  116. (Ban Heifang)
  117. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  118.  
  119. [17:21] "Sure!" said Salthiel, grinning.
  120.  
  121. However, the straightforwardness of his answer was out of his characteristic. Perhaps it was an indication of a lie.
  122.  
  123. He simply didn't want to be a bother. And the principle of "every favor is a debt", was deeply ingrained within him.
  124.  
  125. And with that, he would stand up.
  126.  
  127. "I must go now! I need to feed my cat!" said the boy, and if not intercepted, would vanish into a thin mist.
  128. (Salthiel)
  129. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  130.  
  131. [17:22] Vasco Salencia says, "Salthiel is a good kid...."
