So, question for everyone. If you’re a magical being of some sort that supposedly blesses people, but you’re also known as a Reaper, what do you think that exactly means?

Right now, they seem to break things, lock my shit in my car, pop open bottles of alcohol, and other minor things.

I only fear it will get worse.

[livingimpaired]

Inconveniences, then.
And they could, indeed, get worse to do more damage.

Everyone experiences such occurrences from time-to-time.
It would seem to me like they would not even realize that they're being cursed.
That what they're taking from you is the blessing of death and not fully aware of your domain.

[coinflipped]

From time-to-time is a lot different than consistently.

But... what if these people are right? What if my domain gets so bad that I cause death?

That would explain the name I've been given as the Reaper.

[livingimpaired]

It could.

But so what?
I return to what I said before.
The people took any misfortune as a blessing.
And if they could do so, it seems you learned to control your domain, as it were.
So while you can only give death, you made a curse into a blessing.

It is only my theory, but it gives a little bit of something like hope, doesn't it?

[coinflipped]

Maybe.

It seemed like who I was took pride in himself.

Maybe I'll learn to as well.

[livingimpaired]

Indeed.

Even a person like me has things he takes pride in.
So surely someone far more adapted to the world can find something to feel proud about, too.

[coinflipped]

With all the advice you've given me, I'd think you're almost pulling my leg with not being adapted to the world.

[livingimpaired]

Haha.
Yet if you say "almost", it means you don't find it unbelievable.
I'm just a talkative person.
You're the one who came to your own conclusions.
In the end, consider me little more than a soundboard.

[coinflipped]

I can't dismiss the idea if you've said it. Just doesn't seem right.

You are a great soundboard, though. I'll give you that.

[livingimpaired]

Very kind of you.

Thank you.
That means that you're feeling less distressed then, hm?
