cw: references to temporary blindness, body horror
[ Concern from a man who pushed it far too close for comfort last month. His motivation had been pride and fear rather than research, but he knows exactly how easy it is to think you're doing fine only to turn a corner and abruptly find yourself blind, something clawing with blunt fingers at your insides, looking for a way out.
You do strike me as the type of guy who just gets called in to fix a situation.
Generally I'm pretty confident in Danny's ability to kill me, but if things go really badly and you get called in as reinforcement, don't bring my body to town, I can come back on my own.
"Generally"? Does he need to kill you often? [ Light, believe it or not. Though that doesn't exactly seem out of the question here. As to the rest... ] Noted. Perks of being a necromancer?
[ It's a proper noun, so like any name it doesn't auto-translate, but Stephen might know it's the Māori mother earth figure. ]
Since we're talking about existential terror; Zlatka spent a few weeks figuring out how my immortality works and I'm pretty sure she can turn it off if she wants to.
[ The main reason he's recused himself from local politics. ]
