Oh, not much of one! Dying is never any fun, but it shouldn't be too much trouble.
[He says this because he doesn't know the [redacted] [redacted] this [redacted].]
Thank you, though! I'll be sure to ask them. It hurts every now and then, but I'm entirely sure it's a psychosomatic reaction to the emotional exposure...
Hm... Death is normally something to be feared across many cultures and planets. You sound oddly familiar with the grim reaper.
[ You weirdo San Junipero otome. They think it's quaint though. ]
That's possible. Sometimes a psychological response is strong enough to elicit a physical response or sensation. People often say heartbreak gives them chest pain.
[SAID WITH A PLAYFUL KA-WINK. And yet, there's a brief little muddle of complex feelings that's there and gone in a blip as he continues to scootscoot around and clean.]
I've heard that before, though. It's really something, isn't it? The mind and heart are such powerful things that they can drag the body right along with them, even if it would otherwise be perfectly fine. It's fascinating!
[ They chuckle playfully. It isn't a morbid theme for them. ]
Here I would say humans are emotional creatures, but I've found this can be said about many species across the galaxy. [ Dust dust dust. ] Emotions are a strange, but beautiful thing.
Oh! What a pair! A nation and a manor, cursed by witches and beloved by Death. Someone could write a story about that!
[THEIR CROSSOVER FIC.
That said, Dahut's vibes positively sparkle when they mention the beautiful nature of emotions. Everyone please stop getting Dahut started on emotions.]
Aren't they?! Aren't they just?! What wonderful things, indeed! And to see them in so many different species - it just drives home their loveliness even more, don't you think? Marvelous!
Someone could. It would be the perfect story to teach moral lessons to children.
[ OR TERRIFY THEM INTENSELY. ]
I believe so. It is a show of commonality... It lets beings connect despite there being a physical barrier of flesh between them. Soul to soul, almost.
[Dahut, on the other hand, is very married to that lesson.
He's also laughing very lightly at that, considering it is such a science-y branch of science where he comes from but that's what happens when you're dealing with weird shit like they are.]
I can see why. The heart especially is a pretty complex thing! And people don't usually like it when you try to break it down all neat and clean, which is what scientific method is meant to do... But I think the two can coexist!
[PEOPLE STOP HUMORING DAHUT WHEN HE WANTS TO PHILOSOPHIZE ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF THE HUMAN HEART CHALLENGE.
He is so delighted, though... He even sets his lil cleaning rag down.]
Well, you see! It is possible to break down what creates a feeling into things like electric signals and other bodily functions, but even when you quantify it, the complexity of each individual emotion is sooo vast that it can fill up the equivalent of entire oceans!
[A little dead bean... in the wide, wide world...]
Oh, not at all. [He's very science-minded and believes everything (in his world at least) has a scientific backing...] But! To me, that doesn't take the magic out of it, you know?
The joys in life are biggest when it comes to solving something unsolvable, after all!
[Spoken like a true nosyass scientist.]
It is pretty complex, though, that's true. Even though it's my field of expertise, there are still tons of things that I don't understand! That's what makes it so exciting.
Oh, plenty of things have! I've never even thought about the possibility of going to space before, for one! And I hardly ever get the chance to talk to new people either, so every moment has been a valuable experience.
[Both in the he's a turbo friendship lad sense and in the scientist sense...]
Are you from a place that doesn't have much by way of technology, then?
[ It must have been nice for Dahut until he died. Amalthea is happy for him. ]
Here, you can interact with so many more people... From so many places. It may even inspire you. [ They tilt their head. ] I have seen the very early iterations of film.
It is! It's such an inspiration! A true breath of fresh air! [CLAPPING HIS HANDS TOGETHER WITH DELIGHT.
And then just looking very faintly amused... Ye olde... Except all of the fucking film and recording technology is in his district and the outskirts don't even get old timey picture cameras.]
I see, I see! You don't seem like the type to have much trouble adjusting, though - am I right?
[ The priorities are so funny for french island. ]
I would do better at my job if I adjust quickly, so I try. Some of the technology is still a mystery to me... Even with the information I was given to consume, it doesn't change the unfamiliarity.
Hands-on exploration is always the quickest path to familiarity, I've found! The more you tinker with things you find unusual or odd, the better you'll get to know them!
Ehe, maybe not hands-on in the way you're most familiar with...
[That's why the marriage of technology and biology is the best! As for the mention of the I.R.I.S, with a bright smile:]
Oh, yes! Or at least the ones available to us! I've only chatted with Mademoiselle Rodeo since I like talking in person much better, but the games and such have also been good fun.

It could be! No idea what sort of moral lessons that would impart, though!
[HELP. But he just nods enthusiastically at that, heuheueue.]
Mm, I agree, I agree! The physical body is also an important thing, of course, but what would a connection be without the heart and mind behind it?

[ Seems simple enough. They're not married to that lesson. ]
I'm surprised, Mister Dahut. You are interested in what many would consider not a branch of science.

It's still such an abstract concept that chemicals acting as they do would result in how we behave.

[ They're a good sport about it, so they are acclimating well. ]
The games are interesting, though I haven't dabbled in it myself... I've heard that the camera function is very popular across the universes.

We should play multiplayer Suika sometime, then! But pictures really are popular, and for good reason. Look at the moments you can immortalize!
