Prompts in comments, wildcard me with anything else you want. You can catch me in the discord or DM me at itsabee#1072. CR meme comment Mingle top level Feel free to double up prompts, I will tag you however many times you want. bloodborne 🎶 ❗ Anna is extremely xenophobic against alien/angel/eldritch creatures and violent against them. If you're not sure you count, DM me. She is *dealing* with the yokai, but especially monstrous ones still set her on edge.

[Magic again. A concept that his world has been spared from, it would seem, but Sholmes wonders at the excitement he has been robbed of, accordingly.]

Physical changes, I presume, among others?

[It would explain the overlarge crows. A place where poor little bulldogs would not last a second. It sounds like Sholmes himself would not, either.]

The Church said it only happened to the impure, the undeserving.

[ But it was more than that. ]

Whole town's turned to beasts.

[retroductions]

The “impure and undeserving”. Utterly convenient labels to toss about when there is a lack of a better explanation to be given.

[He doesn’t know her circumstances fully, but it’s in his nature to be skeptical of such things.]

If the whole town’s diseased, then surely you wish to leave and find sanctuary elsewhere?

[Yharnam sounds... wretched?]

Might've been right, but it wasn't them who were judging.

[ Something far more unknowable was puppeteer to them, moving them about in their little city, using and controlling and watching. ]

Leave? Leaving doesn't save me. Their voices are...

[ She makes an open-handed motion alongside her head. She hears it even now: Hunter, Hunter, Hunter. ]

Burnt in.

[ Her eyes flick up from the toy she's fiddling with. ]

Agreed to work if they remove the Great Ones, from me and from Yharnam.

[He must admit... that he does not quite understand all that she is saying. That mention of voices should be a bit more concerning and warrant a far more serious conversation about the matter than the two of them chatting over opened gacha capsules. But Sholmes furrows his brow, fiddling with his own plastic little toy. He slips it idly in a pocket; he was not joking about taking them back to start a little collection.]

That does not sound like an easy task. [Not with a title like "Great Ones".] ...Tell me, do you truly believe our hosts have the power to keep the promises they've contracted to us?

I don't know. But pacts are... powerful.

[ She looks off at nothing really, just sitting rolling an unopened sphere in her palms. ]

Who knows what some blood and suffering could buy...
