If there is anyone with a penchant for feet who would take this ridiculous toe ring off my hands then I would be much obliged.

[ He attaches an image of the toe ring, which was his reward from completing the investigation into the brothel's lockbox. ]

And what in Zodiark's name gave you THAT impression?

[nutsornothing]

I don't know who the hell this Zodiark guy is but you've been alive a long time, right?

Maybe you got bored of the normal stuff people find hot like boobs and enjoy yourself a nice set of feet fingers. I think they are weird but hey man to each their own!

[ Ser. ]

2/2

[emet_sulk]

No.

God he's an ass lmao

[nutsornothing]

Really? Damn. If you are sure dude!

So you more of a hands guy then?

it's okay Emet deserves bullying

[emet_sulk]

This isn't about MY personal tastes.

But if you MUST know, I look to the soul rather than a physical body part.

[nutsornothing]

The soul!? How can you see a soul?! It's not like someone's face or their body!!

[emet_sulk]

The soul is as much a part of a living being as any physical feature. They would not be truly alive without one. Even the animals you see in the wild have souls.

Why is my being able to see souls so far-fetched to you? YOU told me you resurrected after being chopped into pieces.

[nutsornothing]

I mean...I guess that is true.

Yeah, so? What is so hard to believe about that?!

[That is just another day back home for him, Emet.]

[emet_sulk]

I should think my being able to see souls perfectly NORMAL in comparison to your being chopped up and returning to life.

[nutsornothing]

Fair. So what does my soul look like then, huh?

[Color him curious.]

[emet_sulk]

If you really want to know then I would have to meet you in person.

[nutsornothing]

Name the time and place I'll be there!

I'm kinda hungry right now if you feel up to eating while we do some soul shit.

[But when wasn't he hungry to be honest.]

[emet_sulk]

I only need a glance at you. There's no need to make a meal of it.

[ Anti-social man be anti-social. ]

[nutsornothing]

Do you not eat man!? Fine, whatever you say though you can look into my eyes I guess.

[emet_sulk]

I do eat. And I would thank you not to make this sound imappropriate.

Why don't we meet on that neutral island? I forget the name.

[nutsornothing]

Whatcha mean inappropriate!? You are the one who said you gotta look at me man!!

You mean Eltrut? Even I know that dude!

[emet_sulk]

[ He gives up trying to clarify what he actually means. Clearly this boy will misinterpret him. Again! ]

Names change over the course of millennia. I don't anticipate living here long enough for it to matter. I'll meet you at the main pier.

[nutsornothing]

You say that but how do you really know mister I've lived forever?!

Sounds good to me, I'll be there!

[emet_sulk]

We shall see in century's time, hmm?

[ Unsurprisingly, Emet-Selch shows up to the spot in brisk time. He doesn't mind if he has to wait a little while for Denji to show up - although he will get irritable if it's longer than an hour. In the meantime, he'll gaze out over the sea and watch the ships come and go, lost in thought. ]

[nutsornothing]

[It didn't take the feral teenager too long to make his way down to the docks where Emet-Selch had been patiently waiting for him. Although they had never officially met face to face Denji was pretty sure the male who waywardly starred out at sea looking deep in thought had to be the guy.

With his hands folded at the back of his neck the boy casually whistles as he approaches the other without a care in the world.]

Yo! That you Emet-Selch?!

[emet_sulk]

[ It does occur to the Ascian, at some point, that he hadn't given a description of himself - too used to being recognised on sight. Just as he began to reach for his shellphone again, a whistle catches his attention. When he turns, his eyes quickly find Denji in the midst of the crowd.

...Ah. Their soul is almost exactly like he'd expect. A strong, forceful fiery thing that could as easily consume everything in its path as keep a person warm. ]

You have such a terribly predictable soul, [ he sighs. ] Well, I suppose your type are honest.

[nutsornothing]

[Denji had barely waltzed up to meet the guy face to face and he was already able to see into his soul? Here he thought it would have taken some sort of magical spell or some shit but apparently Emet-Selch could just spot him out in a sea of people and read him like a book. A tilt of his head is given curiously as he rubs the back of his neck in mild confusion.]

Wait- What you mean by that!?

[A brief pause as his hands curl tightly into fists with a look of pure determination crossing his face.]

Tell me more man I wanna know what you can see in my soul!

[Would he be able to see Pochita inside him too!?]

[emet_sulk]

[ His Soulsight isn't typically something paraded out for entertainment so he shoots the boy a disapproving frown. But fine - they seem the earnest sort so he supposes he can indulge them.

He takes a little longer look to really drink in the details, and then-- ]

How to describe this in a language you would understand...? Your soul burns brightly and fiercely indeed yet it isn't as clear as it could be. It wavers. Mayhap you strain to unleash your full potential or something holds it back. 'Tis as though you've unwittingly wrapped chains about your heart and it strains against them.

[ A pause. He double checks to be sure of what he's seeing and then adds: ]

It doesn't feel wholly yours either. I presume 'tis the result of whatever creature it was that gave you its life.

[nutsornothing]

[Denji understands most of what the other says nodding in understanding with a slack jawed expression drinking it all in. So Emet-Selch can tell he's super confident in himself but sometimes he falters a bit? That much was certainly true but it isn't until that last part his expression changes, blinking wide as his eyes light up at the mention of the 'creature' inside him. Could he truly sense Pochita's presence!?]

You know there's something inside me!?

[Here is hoping he can tell him what Pochita is feeling about how the teenager has been living his life, trying to fulfill the promise he made by sharing his outlandish dreams with his former pet devil who bestowed their heart to save him from the brink of death.]
