Shadow Game

[wooliefrand]

A simple game, for some simple shepherds.

That mortal you're trying so hard to protect. I simply wish for you to answer two questions.

Two answers from each of you. And then, you may leave.

[she sits back at her little floating table.]

Who does Charon love the most among his Flock?

Who does Charon love the most among the pasture?

[a sip of her tea]

That's all.

1/2

[ M'AM HE DID NOT CONSENT!!!!!!!!!!! ]

[featherduster]

[ WAIT OH MY GOD GETTING FRENCHED BY A SHEEP SKULL WAS THE LEAST BAD THING GOING ON ]


Wh--

Stop joking around!

[wooliefrand]

I don't joke, dear. I entertain.

[featherduster]

[ something is always happening and there is no pause he wants to vomit ]

Ever tried inviting people to a nice peaceful tea in the garden instead? That's way more fun.

[wooliefrand]

I agree.

[sip.

tick tock]

[featherduster]

[ DEEP FUCKIN BREATH ]

And what happens if we're wrong?

[wooliefrand]

I simply wish for you to answer two questions.

[ wait what ]

[featherduster]

[ MANNNN FEELS BAD

Sorry, Ananke. ]

[featherduster]

[ LAST TIME HE WON A DEMON GAME (YESTERDAY) TWO PEOPLE DIED ]

So you're letting us all drag him home unharmed, then?

[wooliefrand]

[a little giggle]

You are quite oblivious aren't you? How lucky for him.

And yes, once I hear the other shepherd's answer.

[featherduster]

[ bruh ]

Yeah well you suck at kissing.

[wooliefrand]

I look forward to getting more practice in~

[featherduster]

[ Before she snaps them-- ]

Maybe you should try your hand at the ladies instead.

[spinebuddyandme]

[ Ananke tightens his grip on Charon, and the tendril holding onto the baby leashes tangles itself up in them even further

He answers without a beat of hesitation ]

Charon doesn't have favorites.

Re: Shadow Game

[wooliefrand]

Oh my dear boy, but he does.

You're allowed to think on it. I have all the time in the world.

But does your flock?

Re: Shadow Game

[spinebuddyandme]

Don't bullshit me! Maybe you're the kind of person who plays favorites, but that's not who Charon is! He wouldn't choose anyone on Lily over anyone else! He loves all of us!

He might love Lily the most among all the flocks, but he loves us the same.

Re: Shadow Game

[wooliefrand]

[a sip of her tea]

He truly is a wonderful man, hm?

But demons don't lie as you mortals do.

Two answers, my dear. And your flock is free to go.

Or will you cling to your stubborn belief for all eternity?

I don't mind the company, of course.

Re: Shadow Game

[spinebuddyandme]

I've given you my answer. He loves everyone on Lily the most, and Lily is who he values most in the pasture.

Re: Shadow Game

[wooliefrand]

And yet you cannot name two of your flock.

Go ahead.

Re: Shadow Game

[spinebuddyandme]

[ He just fuckin deflates when Minuet's answer gets accepted ]





Perci.

Aides.

Re: Shadow Game

[wooliefrand]

[A tilt of her head and steepling of her fingers]

Correct.

Incorrect.

Congratulations.
