To prove everyone who sought to see me dead wrong, of course.

[ a joke? ]

To enact true change. To fix the wretched rot at the core of this world and make it what it was supposed to be. One where you wouldn't have had to kill anyone.

[agamid]

[ honestly he would be valid for that

anyway, dion glances over at him ]

... A most worthy cause. I regret not having gotten to learn more of you while I still had the chance.

[tombtaker]

There's a part of me that rather thinks we aren't done here entirely.

[ at least, the dead don't seem to be leaving anywhere quite yet. ]

Do try and live, at least a little.

[agamid]

[ that makes him laugh ]

I shall endeavour to try, though I do worry once I have tasted the sweetness of death... Hm, well. We shall see.

[tombtaker]

I've done it, it's terrible. I don't recommend it. Sometimes parasitic spirits take over your body and puppet it about for two years without asking you.

[agamid]

[ help he laughs again, wiping at his eyes ]

I did not expect encouragement from you to live, Lucien. You are more tender hearted than I have given you credit for. My apologies.

[tombtaker]

[ rolling his eyes in return. ]

I don't know that it takes a tender heart to not want you all to suffer and die. Perhaps some of you I could care less either direction, but you aren't the worst. I rather think my "deal" is simply pointing out you're all idiots and fools. There is a difference.

[agamid]

[ he hums ]

And you are exempt from being a fool and an idiot?

[tombtaker]

[ he snorts. ]

No. But less so.

[agamid]

Very well. Then I shall retract my statement. [ still, he looks thoughtful ] Still, it is more kindness than I expected.

I thought you found my demeanour rather grating.
