agleam | pc catchall for scaramouche

[THIS IMMORTAL IS SO FUNNY and honestly so relatable except Scaramouche probably wouldn't be moved to step in even in all his mercurial moods. Or maybe he would be! Gods are fucking weird and wild! They really just do whatever the hell at any given time!

At the very least, he doesn't immediately start needling Rupert about his emotional voice crack.]

So you just happened to catch her eye and be doing something she didn't necessarily expect to see, all without any of you knowing you had done so.

[There's a little, neutral-sounding hum.]

Very like a god, or god-adjacent beings.

I am... not a huge fan of her! But I'm less of a fan of him. At least she did us a solid, I guess, in the end.

A mercurial favor, but a favor nonetheless, I suppose.

[DERISIVE. He hates all gods (he is one) HE HATES ALL GODS. God-like immortal beings also count.]

What happened to that man, then.

He left.

[typical!!!!!!]

Should have killed him after the curse was lifted.

No. He stayed and was like, hey you can totally execute me if you want to, and then it's like... Weird.

Oh. Well. It isn't as satisfying to kill someone when they're already putting their neck on display.

It wouldn't have been satisfying anyways. Sometimes you just... want to move on, you know?

[HE DOESN'T, ACTUALLY! Well he kind of does never mind. this tag sent me on such a journey]

So it's all done and dealt with, then.

Yeah. Until the next thing happens.

Is your home regularly beset by calamities.

Dealing with apocalyptic threats, remember...?

Is it something about you. You've been through this three times, too; you must have cosmically horrible fortune.

Yeah, no, that's not wrong.

[BUT ALSO]

I think it's more that... It's not that things back home are happening to me specifically, they're just happening in general. But I'm supposed to fix them when they do.
