Predators and Prey

Oh goodness, Liina?
<Looks around and sees potion bottles strewn about>
THAT HORRID WENCH HAS BEEN IN MY STUDY AGAIN
<he begins to mutter and scramble through bottles>
I suppose thats how you became so small, too.
<he grabs a bottle with a shimmering, maroon liquid and a little vial, mixing them together. A cloud of green smoke erupts, making Gimhe cough>
Drink this.
< he hands you a bottle of black, bubbling goo>
I hope this doesn't make me say weiner in every sentence.

*still doesn’t see color*
*kneels (awkwardly)*
Well, secondarily, yes. I hope that fessing up and acknowledging guilt and injustice committed is my highest priority, but... sort of.
*pauses, considering what to say*
I was wrong. In my wrath I claimed to be justified in the exec—accidental—*sighs* the murder of my surrogate son. My justifications were flawed. ...I had no right putting him into a position where he’d even come close to death, much less directly causing it myself. For this, I see no other just outcome than my own execution. I recognize this now.
*closes eyes, pained*

*regains composure and looks Metavasi directly in the eye*
That said, I strongly disagree with your mother’s methods. Anyone can be tortured into saying anything, and cursing me until I cooperated is not true repentance. A lesser man than I could easily simply say he’d learned and go about his business afterwards (albeit, slightly more carefully). Which is why I’m thankful that I’ve been honorable person who hasn’t yet broken my word, so you can trust me when I say that, on whatever honor I haven’t forfeited by my shameful actions that day, I truly believe what I’ve said prior to be true. And I swear to take good precautions, lest I slay another for any reason besides crimes actually deserving of death, to keep my admittedly excessive “hot-headed”ness in check. And... while I don’t personally believe emotions have much to do with morality, it might help you to also communicate that I feel... *swallows* quite guilty. I’ve had an exercise in empathy on my journeys, and I’ve learned much.

Thank you for hearing me to the end. I’m sure your time as a god is exceedingly valuable.

"If I recall, you scoffed in the face of her curse? Saying it was 'mildly inconvenient.' Now you call it it torture? That is an awfully large change in opinion. But I believe you are still missing the point" Metavasi considers Ari's words carefully.

"Do you recall what she said about the curse? It will be undone on its own when your have realized what you have lost. I believe there is small eevee back in town that can help you with this. You should have met him already" Metavasi reminds Ari of her mother's words and directs him to a source of answers.

"Selenelis is a goddess of love and family as well so consider that when seeking to undo the curse" the goddess of transiton informs Ari as she jots down some notes on paper.

Pardon... Weiner?

<as you gulp down the foul tasting concoction, you feel a sudden cramping in your limbs. Your fingers, then arms, and then the rest of your body begin to expand, while your fur begins to fade to its original color.>

*furrows brow*
Of course I scoffed, I was incredibly emotional. You cannot cite anything I said or did at the time as particularly rational.
And the “torture” is more of a curses in general thing—never mind...
"Do you recall what she said about the curse? It will be undone on its own when your have realized what you have lost.
Like I said, I came mainly to confess my guilt to the higher powers. I’ve only lost my innocence under the law. (Which I’ve very much realized...)

*glares*
You—you expect me to find another Eevee? That’s the mistake that got me into this mess! What kind of—
*pauses, regains composure*
Pardon me. I recall that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results. I am not insane, and do not expect any good to come of seeking out another Eevee to discuss things with. With all due respect... is there some non-dangerous way you recommend going about this?

(But you thought it okay to kill your son who was EXTREMLY hormonal at the time?)

Nobody wanted to either. I'm sure you can recall, you, @Universe , and I sat down to watch a friendly duel that day.
True. Still, nobody can foresee what exact moments can unfold.....and that's why I don't blame Ari. He didn't exactly foresee what went down, and I know that when one of honor accidentally kills someone, that can tend to haunt them for some time, and they just receive the judgement of a much higher level being cast down upon them.

That's one of the reasons as to why my unshaken faith lies in the fair knight. I believe that he wasn't at fault....

"Hmmm... you really still have lost quite more than you realize..." Matavasi cocks her head with curiosity at Ari. "I never said to discuss this with the eevee. Just try having fun. Try having a tickle fight instead of a battle. Try brushing his fur and snuggling him. If he laughs for you, I will make sure you can hear it once more. Treat him differently. You owe it to your fallen son to try and lighten up a little.... a smile might help, too."

You ask me to smile whilst afflicted. You ask me to lighten up whilst bearing one of the heaviest loads of my life.
*chuckles*
I hope you can see the irony in that.
Very well, thy will be done, and thank ye for not simply striking me down here, as I deserve. Dost thou desire anything of me (unrelated to the previously discussed issue)?

Regardless, the gods have never been much my concern. I'm merely here still to record a rare opportunity to observe a god-sighting

"It happens more than you might think. My mom likes to walk among mortals but usually disguises herself and tries not to draw attention to her status."

"I do see the irony. But it is a parent's job to comfort their child even during trying times. I think you will find this particular eevee's laugh is familiar and comforting to you. That is all I need from you. Good luck!" Her voice has a comforting quality to it to as she smiles at Ari.
