[You are greeted with the sound of randomly disrupted static, at the end of which three melodic beeping signals are heard. Yep, that's your cue to leave a message!]
Forsaking your body is not an experience I recommend. Not for any reason. It is not exactly reversible.
Moreover very few have the gift enough to see what is not physical. To interact with the material world you would need a body to possess. You could learn to take over corpses, I suppose, but that comes with its own unpleasantness.
Several. It is best to work from multiple angles after all.
But if you wish to be of help in that regard, perhaps those you speak to regularly might have such concepts as world and dimensional travel you could probe them on. More knowledge is ever useful.
[He stares into the distance for a bit, rifling through the options.]
Hmmm... Apart from our shared acquaintances... I can't really think of anyone off the top of my head, but I'll ask around. It may be simply that the topic has never come up before. Skylark's world has some manner of traversing time, I believe, but not space or borders between worlds...
He did back down very quickly when I tried this with him, indeed!
[Oh, but this reminds him.]
Oh, what if you try to fluster me? We played this game with Nero too, but he had absolutely nothing on me. I've yet to tell Vergil his son lost at something.
Hm. Why indeed. Perhaps your desire for attention, affirmation and affection to combat your existential uncertainties, as well as isolation of your position as an immoral among mortals?
[He takes a sip of tea.]
Well, if he was fine that is fine. But do be kind, Nero has his own hangups and jealousies.
[Levity pauses, weighing up the analysis. Yep, checks out.]
Those, yes, but also genuine curiosity as to what you think would fluster me. And flirting is a fun way to pass the time, regardless of how serious it is.
And, mm... Well, Jason was there. If I'd said anything that made Nero uncomfortable, I'm certain he'd have nailed me to the wall instantly.
[He chuckles.]
In truth, all I really said was that they're really cute together and I'm happy for them. Apparently, that was enough to make Nero spontaneously combust.
I know Vergil is not exactly thrilled about Jason being Nero's partner, but I think they truly love each other. Jason is a good, caring man... simply one who's endured too much to love himself or be openly vulnerable. And in that regard he's not much different from many you know, hmm?
[He smiles, and this time instead of a scone he's just... going to eat a spoonful of jam.]
I don't know if I would call it my hobby, but it's fun nonetheless.
I have never spoken to Jason much about aught but business, but I have had the pleasure of hearing his younger brother rant on his behalf. And certainly that description could be most of this unit, or others I love.
Ah yes, Talon! Jason is incredibly fond of him as well. And I would tell you to try and speak with Jason more, but... I think you may be too old for that.
[Hello fellow teens.]
And, well... Perhaps it's simply because I like people?

...is it an unpleasant experience, then?
Re: 349idk

Better to work on a viable method.
Re: 349idk
I... Yes, I would prefer to avoid that. But I assume you have ideas when it comes to that viable method?

I'll have you know the matter of my lovers is easy enough to organize.

Re: 349idk
But you were not too teasing with Nero, I hope?
Re: 349idk
And, well, he survived! So I think I was fair enough.

Re: 349idk
So, has flirting become your hobby?
Re: 349idk
[He smiles, and this time instead of a scone he's just... going to eat a spoonful of jam.]
I don't know if I would call it my hobby, but it's fun nonetheless.
Re: 349idk

What appeals to you about it?
