That doesn't mean I want it in here!
How did you get rid of yours?

[ He has a guess. ]

[swordhardy]

Well... I didn't per se
It stole my clothes and ran away, so I had to wear a sheet and chase it
Then I stomped on it
It was small one, the spirit of a broken sandal
There are all different ones running around

How big is yours?

[outtaluck]

I didn't realize they could be the spirits of inanimate objects. Interesting.

It's bigger than a sandal, that's for sure. Is there any reason I shouldn't just put it down? There's no way I'm letting it steal my clothes.

[swordhardy]

Some of them can curse you
.... Do you think that would cancel out the reaper's curse?

[outtaluck]

Malakhim's blessings don't usually cancel each other out, so I don't think so.
It's probably thanks to the curse that I ended up picking a room that was already occupied.

[swordhardy]

And he's not a tolerable roommate?
What's he doing? Just looking at the ceiling?
That isn't so bad

[outtaluck]

Not just looking at it. Licking it.
There's no way I could even try to sleep with that noise.

[swordhardy]

You should move

2/2

[swordhardy]

Come my way, no one's licking the ceiling over here

[outtaluck]

[ This takes some consideration. If he moves, it'd feel a little like running off with his tail between his legs, and Eizen has his pride. On the other hand, this thing was here before him. It staked its claim, for better or worse. And does he really want to stay in a room that has a ceiling covered in youkai saliva? ]

That may not be the case if I move. I tried to pick a room not too close to anyone else, so they don't have to deal with my curse.

[swordhardy]

I don't think anyone I live near would care
They've been here for as long as I have, what's a little more trouble?

[outtaluck]

Not everyone is as flippant about it as you.

[swordhardy]

Should I introduce you first?

[outtaluck]

[ ... ]

If you're convinced they won't take issue with it, then fine. I can only take so much more of this slurping sound.

[swordhardy]

Think it'll follow you?

[outtaluck]

It's always a possibility.

[swordhardy]

If it does, that's when we kick its ass

[outtaluck]

[ Nine months past or not, this is the same old Rokurou. ]

Aye.
What floor are you on?

[swordhardy]

Usually the third
Sometimes the floors change on their own

[outtaluck]

Of course they do.
Well, I should make it there eventually. I'll find you.

[swordhardy]

Alright.
Make it here soon enough and maybe there'll be something left in this bottle for you

[outtaluck]

You drive a hard bargain.
I'm on my way.

[ As far as Eizen's concerned, it's his own fondness for drink that has him moving so quickly, rather than anything to do with his youkai. ]
