[ As Shoma wanders further in, Europa watches him closely. Not necessarily wary, just neutral and quiet. ] A debt. Karma. [ Though his brows furrow a little, the black smoke clinging to his body flicking. ]

[solesuccess]

[ listen he can't fight, but he can look. and also observe the smoke. ]

How do you know when that debt will be paid?

[dropoffs]

...I don't. It isn't something as simple as that. Though why it brought me here... [ .... ] I don't remember. Something is missing.

[solesuccess]

[ . . . ]

Does it bother you that you don't remember?

[dropoffs]

It does. I've lived centuries, millenniums, and I have never forgotten then. The fact my memory is starting to appear more faulty the more I try to remember here - [ There's a notable frown, brows furrow and they shake their head. He has made his point. ]

[solesuccess]

[ ... ]

Like you're trying to resist, but whatever's causing the memory to be inaccurate is fighting back harder. That's...not great.

[dropoffs]

..No. It is not. [ Not great at all. Also, I should say, there's a sudden blink of blue eyes from the shadows of the room. Hewwo. ]

[solesuccess]

[ EYEBALLS? he is definitely going to look at those. ]

Has it felt like it's been getting worse since we got here?

[dropoffs]

Rather than worse I would say it's becoming a bit clear. Of what, I wouldn't be able to say, but pain is sometimes necessary. [ Eyeballs... as he looks, a black cat steps out curiously with a tail swish. Europa glances over to it. ]

[solesuccess]

I feel like that's dependent on the kind of pain, Europa. Some pains are fine, but others...you may not be able to recover from.

[ oh. cat.? ]

Son? [CAT? ]

[dropoffs]

Living for millenniums there is no pain I have not suffered and dealt with already. [ Edgy. He can handle it. ] Son. [ The cat perks up, meows and does the happy cat skip to wind around Europa's legs before coming up to Shoma. Hi. ]

[solesuccess]

[ thank you, sasuke. shoma does think europa is a bit of an edgelord but it is okay. sometimes you just are stuck living for too long and you just go "sure, that is fine." ]

And the point of living for that long is that the world is always changing, isn't it? [ he says this, but he crouches down to say hi to son. little pets for kitty. ] At least cats are the same everywhere you go.
