[ He hesitates a little, then sighs and leans back in his chair, sticking his legs out and for once in his life just sort of. Looks his age. ]
My current state is because I broke my Souljam to feed our Moon Goddess with a portion of it's power. I am afraid I'm a little out of sorts because of it, but that shall adjust with time. My request for the infection monitor is, ah. Well. Did you see Passengers journal statement?
I did, which is what prompted me to ask the initial question. My husband was quite vocal toward Vash's jokes there, and there was no need for me to weigh in.
[...hm.]
Breaking your Souljam is, if I'm understanding, akin to someone like myself losing a piece of his soul. It's less metaphysical for you, it seems. I take it by your current state that doing such weakened you significantly.
[ A small nod. He just wanted to make sure, and Gnosis wasn't asking about their talk with Ourania. ]
Ah, yes. In a sense. We are all born with whole souls, and the Souljam is something of a soul itself. Yet after so much time of carrying it, using it, and immersing myself in it's power, I have entangled with it to a point. Though my own soul is still fully accounted for [ Oh, Witches, he HOPES, or he just did something irredeemable to himself... Shadow Milk's mocking memory clear and loud. Half Cookie. ] breaking the Souljam has broken the connection somewhat, and where I could look and see it pressing into mine, there is now a dark space. I do hope that makes sense.
Somewhat. I'm less used to the metaphysical — but if I had to put it all in terms that make more sense to me, your Souljam is an extraneous... organ, I suppose, one that you can live without but impacts your quality of life if it's damaged. Like a pancreas.
[...]
It's a close approximation, anyway— ignoring all of that, is there anything I can do to help with that "dark space"?
He knows he's ready human anatomy books but that one escapes him. ]
It is something like that, yes. And truthfully, my friend, I do not know. I am sure, with time, I will go back to how I felt before I received the Souljam. Until then it shall simply feel like a missing piece. It alleviates with others around.
[ Gay. His friends are his soul. He rubs between his eyes a little, and sighs. ]
But with it broken, I am now able to see whether I have been infected with Oripathy or not. Which is why I asked about the monitor.
Oh, please, thank you, tea would be wonderful. If you need anything, I will do my best to assist. It is not imperative it is done immediately, either, so please do not feel you need to rush.
