don't wait for a knight in shinin' armor, your savior's reflected in the mirror
[That sure was a fucking thing. That execution was a fucking thing. Those secrets are a fucking thing.
Cabanela retreats to his room, but not for all that long. Everyone will get a note eventually, written in very neat handwriting
I do not plan on bowing down to threats and intimidation. If you did not act, it means you were, like me, aware of the risk, but decided against it. Your reasons are entirely your own.
Join me in the dining room if you agree enough is enough, and that you won't acquiesce to threats. I don't plan to let this stop me, and neither should you.
-C
In the dining room itself, Cabanela has set up coffee and tea for those who want it-- there's no food, because to be honest, he doesn't know how to cook. Two more candles have been lit-- he wasn't really sure what to do about the whole... parasite thing... so Fern's candle will have to make due.]

Dining Hall
[ This is apparently a thing we ask. She says this almost oddly casually, her hand resting on her chin and her long red nail brushing up to her lip. Her eyes are in predatory mode. But she's got an even done. ]
no subject
Rideaux places his hands on his hips, staring at the wall of secrets rather than Elda herself. He's quiet for a time, very clearly considering how to explain this.]
The dimensions that I deal with are called fractured dimensions. They are created out of corruption, and are like a poison to the dimension that I hail from. Therefore, those who have the ability to travel to these fractured dimensions are tasked with the elimination of them.
...That is the reason on the very simplest terms.
no subject
[ She hums, looking up at the ceiling for a moment as if she's considering that set up. The whole idea is... monstrous, really. In the most profound of ways. She clicks her tongue. ]
Whatever God made up that world was perverse.
no subject
[He...agrees... He definitely agrees.]
The fractured dimensions didn't always exist, but the primordial spirits that oversee the world decided to run a test to see if humanity is worth its continued existence. So here we are.
[Have a field day with that, Elda.]
no subject
But she ends up shaking her head and: ]
Christ alive, that's some twisted nonsense right there. Proving your worth by blowing people up?
[ A beat ]
And to think we've got two gods here, now.
no subject
[LIKE IT MATTERS, THOUGH...]
That we do. I am still not sure what to make of that. The fact that the Coordinators were able to even capture them...
no subject
no subject
Funny you should say that, because the power to do that was given to us by one of the primordial spirits who started this trainwreck. It's not like we would be able to do something about the fractured dimensions otherwise.
no subject
[ that makes a lot more sense to her, even if that level of power juggling sounds sort of horrifying still. ]
no subject
[He can only imagine how ridiculous this all sounds to someone completely outside of the issue.]
no subject
That makes you literally anointed, doesn't it? Our poor priest, totally outshone.
no subject
Oh, I feel so special now. But considering we were only granted it to play along with their damned test, I can't say I'm thrilled by it.
[It was amazing at first, but...well. Then he learned the whole story.]
no subject
[ And his occupation on the profile made it sound like there's some whole group behind it. ... yes, she will keep poking this until such time that she's asked about hers or something. ]
no subject
Not at all. There is an entire department dedicated to this cause, and I am the director of it. Nearly all of its agents were born with the ability that I have described. It is supposed to be a top secret operation, but...
[Well. The Coordinators happened.]
no subject
I mean, thousands of people are probably still dead.
But not like I knew them.
[ So... ya...y? ]
no subject
With a hollow chuckle,]
I suppose it does. Is that what you were expecting? No, I am certainly not doing it for the hell of it. I'd prefer to no longer be involved, but I don't have much say in that matter.
[He's probably absolutely screwed back home, actually.]
no subject
[ From the sound of her tone, that's pretty much the worst thing is could be though so . . . SHRUG ]
