[he pauses.]

Sorry, you're totally dead.

[swordflash]

You're lying! If I were really dead, you wouldn't be able to see or hear me! Do you think it's funny, lying about someone's being dead?

[oathic]

... Well, I gotta ask: why did you ask in the first place, then?

[swordflash]

[he fervently slams his hands down on babo kim's shoulders.]

Because! Even though I brought my hands down just now, I didn't feel them! When I got up this morning, I couldn't feel the floor, either! It was like I'd died in my sleep—I can't even feel the heat from this fire!

But you can see me, which means that I'm still here. My body isn't the same, though! What's happening? Hey, tell me what's going on!

[oathic]

I have no clue.

[gomen]

[swordflash]

What good are you!

[he slams his hands down again. babo kim! this is why your name is what it is!]

How about you? Do you feel anything? When I do this, [he claps those shoulders again] do you feel my hands?

[oathic]

[it absolutely is, you are correct]

Nope.

[swordflash]

[oh. his jaw drops before he swiftly points to the fireplace behind him.]

What about the fire?

[oathic]

Still nope.

[swordflash]

You're way too cool about this. Aren't you worried about what this means? People don't just wake up overnight with no feeling in their bodies! `

[oathic]

But panicking doesn't help, right?

[swordflash]

I'm scared, all right? It's been days and we're still stuck in this mansion with no way out. Now our bodies are changing again. Seriously, what's gonna happen to me? I'm so scared!

[oathic]

Whoa! Okay, first things first: have you had something to eat yet?

[swordflash]

Of course not! I can't feel anything. What if I bite my tongue? Then I'll really be dead!

[if he isn't already.]

[oathic]

Well, that's your problem right now. Come on, let's go get food!

[swordflash]

It's your problem, too!

If I choke on anything, you take responsibility.

[oathic]

Sure, sure. But once you've eaten something good, you'll feel better!

[swordflash]

[he'll hold babo kim to it. a part of him also agrees that getting something to fill his stomach will help, though he dreads the ordeal of eating in his current state. anyway, lead on, king of bums.]

[oathic]

[leading!!]

So what do you like to eat?

[swordflash]

Peach is the cook, isn't she? I'll eat anything she's made.

[oathic]

Not a picky eater, huh?

[swordflash]

Not really. I'm an orphan, so I'd eat what I could or was given. The stuff Peach makes is really good, too.

What about you?

[oathic]

Nah. Food is food—it's all good.

[swordflash]

What's your favorite?

[he might as well ask while they head over. small talk keeps his mind off of things he'd rather not think about, too.]

[oathic]

I don't really have a favourite... though dried persimmons are convenient, since they can come in a bag.
