[ Toboe hasn’t shown his face to anyone ever since he… well, died. He won’t be mentioning that. It’s the second time, he dies, and it doesn’t get better. But in any case, he is worried about someone. ]

Hello. [ he isn’t as excitable as he usually is, but he smiles. he also looks pretty tired. ] I hope everyone is doing better after… that. [ kidnapping. Dognapping? Wolfnapping! ] Violet, were you alright? [ after Toboe died, he means. Since he died to protect her, he sort of hoped she survived, in the end. ]

I also have another question. Back in your world, have you ever heard of Paradise? I just would like to hear what you know about it, if that’s alright. Thank you.

-Paradise?

audio/

[onewiththewild]

Hm! If you ever heard of it.

audio/

[ktfod]

Of it? Sounds like you mean a specific type.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

A specific type? [ like what? ]

Just... paradise. i don't know if there are other types.

audio/

[ktfod]

Well depending on who you talk to, paradise can mean a lot of things to people. Especially those that are religious.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

[ he has no idea what religion even is ]

Well, what does it mean to you, then?

audio/

[ktfod]

[That solves that then.]

... [A pause because- he- isn't really sure.]

I never really thought of the afterlife- to be honest with you. But I guess it'd be where you can see your passed loved ones again.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

Afterlife...? [ wait, you mean after someone dies? ]

Uhm, so you can only find paradise after you die?

audio/

[ktfod]

Or so most people believe. It's a place you would go after you've passed on, and for some, only if you've lived a life that allows you it. But it's all about belief, no one's really proven it.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

It's a bit unfair you can only get there after you die... what are you going to do there, if you are dead?

audio/

[ktfod]

Not really, it's supposed to be something you earn throughout your life.

Ah- it depends on who you ask. People have different ideas of what it's like.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

Uh, I never heard of something like that.

Even if you ear it throughout your life, you die and you can't enjoy Paradise. [ it sounds VERY unfair, actually ]

audio/

[ktfod]

Think of it like another life after your life then. Death is merely a break between your life now, and the one you'd experience in an afterlife. Hence the name.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

Oh, I see.

So no one ever really dies.

audio/

[ktfod]

[Uuuhh..]

Kind of. You still experience the act of dying, and leaving those you love. But no, I suppose to you it might seem otherwise.

That's what some believe anyway.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

Do you believe in anything?

audio/

[ktfod]

Yeah- I guess I do.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

Like what?

audio/

[ktfod]

I don't know really. That there's a place of some sort where those that have passed wait for you. I'm not sure...

Ah- death isn't something I like to dwell on for too long. You should take things as they go.

audio/

[onewiththewild]

Wait for you? So Paradise would be the same for everyone?

audio/

[ktfod]

Uh-

Yeah... [A pause. That'd make sense since- he expects to see others there, right?]

Yeah- hm, well most believe there is only one type of heaven. You just get different things there. I guess people's ideas could contradict then, hmm... [Meaning not everyone could really get what they want? If someone's idea of paradise was to be alone, someone they know that dies who would want to see them wouldn't get to then... uh... Confusing.]
