I was going to apologize for throwing more inane bullshit on here, but since we're all going to be dying of plague soon I guess it's actually kind of topical. Get out while you still can, you know?

Anyway. Has anyone from an earth like this visited their home here? Was that kind of fun or just massively depressing?

And uh, I guess if the overwhelming answer is depressing I'm also taking vacation recommendations. I'm not really picky as long as it's somewhere kind of quiet and thought provoking. Someplace you can clear your head, you know?

Playing God and bringing people back to life? I can't see why you'd think that about it...

Ha ha ha. Hahahaha!!! Wow, that is so original and funny. It's a good thing I don't have lungs anymore or I'd be laughing them up right now!!

You don't actually have lungs?

I was embalmed, I don't have anything. Except like, sawdust and cotton and what the fuck ever.

[ ...Ew. ]

Ah.

[ Real useful response there, Kangmo. Nice way to say "this is horrific, and I don't want to keep talking about it" without using those words. A+ smoothing things over.

This is his fault. He brought this up. ]

[this is absolutely his fault, which means that Hazel isn't going to drop it until he outright says so. she doesn't like having to think about what she's lost unless it's on her terms. it's too depressing otherwise.]

What, did you think they'd just leave all that shit inside me? What the hell could I possibly use it for now?

[ He had a sinking feeling the minute he replied at all. ]

I don't really spent that much time around morgues. It's not like I know what they do with everything.

Dude, I was never in a morgue. That all happened in her house.

[ That's a whole nother level of disturbing. ]

Wait... did she remove your organs herself?

[try living with the fact that your organs were removed without your consent and you have no idea where they went.]

I sure as hell wasn't able to help her do it.

[ Horrific... ]

She was seriously messed up.

[ Like the bringing back the dead to be your slave thing wasn't a big enough clue. ]

Then what are you planning to do if someone here had some weird magic that could bring you back the right way. It probably wouldn't work without all the parts in place.

What, do you mean if there was someone who could make me human again??

Something like that. With all the people from all these different worlds it's always possible someone will show up that could do it.

I don't think that kind of thing exists in any world.

You don't? Think about it, even the people here can bring the freshly dead back to life with no visible consequences. It's possible the nanites you were working to get rid of could actually save you...

But it's just a theory.

Healing doesn't work that way on me. Those things aren't going to do any good.

It doesn't work?

[ And here he thought he was actually onto something... ]

Why would it? There isn't anything left in me to heal.

[it actually does the opposite, but after everything with Kangmo there is no way in hell she's giving him another weapon against her. the only person who knows about that is Josuke, and she'd prefer to keep it that way.]

[ Even though he's already learned his lesson, that's still probably playing it smart. Broken trust ain't exactly easy to get back, and god knows he's only made the tiniest hint of an attempt at trying. ]

But if someone dies, even if they're still newly dead the cells should be too. It shouldn't make a difference.

I've been dead for ten years after a week of floating in a river. I have had every fluid in my body pumped out of me and replaced with embalming fluids. There is sawdust where my heart should be.

Tell, what exactly should healing powers be healing? My busted-ass soul?

The parts still there. It's not like all of your body is gone.

[ He's so good at this sympathy thing. ]

The parts still there that fix themselves already??

Mm... I wonder if the magic is keeping them from working the way they're supposed to then.

[ Not that he's telling her to go get that spell undone, since you know if that random guess in the dark was wrong that'd end badly for her. ]

[oh my god, there is no way she's going to go up to a necromancer and be like PLEASE UNTETHER MY SOUL FROM THIS PHYSICAL HUSK. Kangmo don't even suggest that as a joke.]

I have a pretty good idea of why the healing doesn't work on me. It's not really something that's worth trying to fix.

[ What?! Why not?! It seems like such a good idea! ]

Your call.
