Death Just Needs A Little Conversation [Open]
Who: Ryo and Open (angled towards those with death powers/connections)
Where: ICP/Garden Car
When: Nebula 3
What: Ryo is coming to terms with the fact that he's kept his death-related Diagad powers, so now he's asking for help with them. (They're not what he's afraid they are, but he doesn't know that yet.)
Warnings: Probably a lot of death talk, but we'll go from there.
Notes: It starts as an ICP post, but he won't be replying on the network, only in person. Anyone is welcome to join in; he's just angling for people with Insight Into Death. (I'll also match prose or brackets.)
[Ryo looks...uncertain at best, but much closer to 'worried but trying not to show it' as the ICP flickers on.]
If anyone is connected to death, or has death-related powers, I could use your help.
[-wait that sounds bad-]
It's nothing crazy - I just have...questions.
[He can't quite bring himself to say what he's actually worried about, so instead it's just:]
I'll be in the garden car, if you wouldn't mind coming to see me.
[And the ICP flickers off. He's not planning on having this conversation in front of the train and everyone, so in-person it is. True to his word, he's sitting on one of the benches in the garden car with Lagos in his lap, holding the plush bird and trying not to let his fears run away with him. He may not be entirely succeeding. It may be obvious.]

no subject
[But does he need that?]
[He falls silent, turning the question over in his mind, giving it the consideration it deserves, because it's also what Thanatos deserves.]
[It takes some time, but what he finally settles on is:]
No.
[His voice is quiet as he continues, words slow and halting, like he's still thinking them over even as he says them, because he is.]
It's...it's easier to have that hope, when I'm not the only one whose power might have changed, but...no.
[He wants to feel better - he wants to stop being afraid - but he's not going to bend Thanatos over backwards to do it.]
no subject
I can't give that to you. Other mortals might. However.
[ Because no matter how human he may look or act, it's important to remember that he is still a god. ]
