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?

"Reaper" always makes me think of death, but hopefully that's not what it actually is!

It's good to see you're back, by the way! I was a bit worried you weren't returning to us!

[Not like being on the app is necessarily a good thing...]

[coinflipped]

I would hope not, but I wouldn't be surprised either given my luck.

[Really, he wouldn't.]

Anyway, yeah I'm back. For better or for worse.

[scythegun]

Your luck really has been bad lately, hasn't it? Hopefully you'll remember more about it just by talking about it!

Did you have a nice break? I'm sure you've already heard about what you missed, right?

[coinflipped]

That's what I'm hoping. I am learning more now that I'm just talking to people.

And yes. I did have a nice break and I'd like to go back.

Still, there is something nice about being on here, too, like I'm in on some secret.

Also, I've heard about what I missed. Kinda glad I missed it all.

[scythegun]

I personally couldn't stand it if I went back to not knowing about any of this, but then again that's because I've changed so much since I first joined Retrospec!

[...is he serious or is he just joking...??]

The monster fighting was fun, but there wasn't nearly enough of that to suit my tastes.

[coinflipped]

That's because your life isn't literally breaking down around you for some goddamned reason.

[He might be bitter about this.]

Also, you really are a sadist, aren't you?

[scythegun]

[You know, he could actually argue that given that his boyfriend died, he received a magical replacement heart that brought him back from the dead in his past life, and everyone around him seems to be slowly going insane, but uh. That's a lot to dump on someone so instead...]

I truly am sorry to hear that, Isaac. I'm sure there isn't much that can be done to help, but I could take you out for a drink sometime, if you'd like.

[And also:]

I wouldn't go that far~! ☆ I just like fighting!

[coinflipped]

[Ah yeah, that might top him (for now), and he'd wonder if Jeager was a sadomasochist. It takes all types, he supposes.]

Normally, I'd be all for going out for drinks with someone, but I'm not sure how I could handle that with you. Though I am admittedly a little curious how that would go.

[scythegun]

[Thanks, Isaac.]

Wonderfully, I'm sure~! I promise I don't drink too much, but even if I did I'm fun when I'm drunk!

[says you...]

[coinflipped]

I don't think it's a matter of if you drink much or not, it's a matter of what kind of drunk you are.

[Isaac, for example, loves to start bar fights.]

[scythegun]

Fair enough! I usually don't drink enough to get drunk anymore, though I used to go out partying with a friend of mine sometimes! We always had a good time!

[And no bar fights were involved!!]

[coinflipped]

You might actually be a decent person to take barhopping then.

[So he can watch Isaac get smashed and go insane and they can have a role reversal.]

[scythegun]

Someone has to be the responsible party, right?

[this is making me laugh way harder than it should tbh]

[coinflipped]

...

The sad part is I would actually expect you to be the responsible one of the two of us.

[This is so great...!]

[scythegun]

I'll have you know I'm always responsible...!

[...yeah, not even he's buying that.]

But I promise if we ever go out drinking that I'll keep an eye on you, Isaac~! ☆

[coinflipped]

First of all, we both know that's bullshit, and secondly don't be surprised if I come on to you while drunk because you were looking after me.

[Listen, even he knows he's more a fuckboy when drunk.]

[scythegun]

Then it'll please you to know that I'm happily taken! I'll reject your advances every time~

[Thanks for the warning though?? That could've been a disaster.]

[coinflipped]

Lucky you. Must be nice to be in a stable relationship.

[NOT THAT HE EVER WOULD KNOW WHAT THAT'S LIKE.]

[scythegun]

It is! The last one I was in ended terribly and I thought I'd never experience it again, but I'm glad I was wrong!

Who knows, someday you might find a special someone too~! ☆

[coinflipped]

I doubt it, but thanks for the comment anyway.

So, despite all the monster hunting, business is still going well, yeah?

[scythegun]

It is! It was nice to have a bit of a break from it, but I'm glad to be back home! I've missed my shop!

[coinflipped]

I feel you on that considering my shop is my hobby.

[Even if he barely breaks even on it...]

[scythegun]

It's a nice hobby to have, isn't it? I'll have to drop by to visit you sometime now that I'm back!

[coinflipped]

Well, you know where I work...

[scythegun]

I'll take that as an invitation, then~! ☆
