I can understand why. [He also feels guilty! Yippie the Catholic Guilt!!] ...Is there anything that I can do to help? Even if it's just to listen, and even though you've already spoken to him.
[NO HE CAN'T DO THAT!!! He can give her a lil cold paw, though, and a few seconds of tangibility where he reaches up with his free hand to rest it briefly against hers.]
I'd rather just be able to do what I can for you, and I'm certain the same could be said for Mathis... But just being there for him would be a help, I think. Especially now.
[ She wishes she could feel more than just cold coming from him, but something physical, even for the briefest of moments, is still better than feeling nothing at all
She wants to reassure him, but that might not ease his guilt any. :< :< :< ]
Would you mind talking about it? Your world and what was going on.
[Sometimes ghostly visits aren't perfect but imperfection is still better than nothing at all... SHE'S TOO KIND THOUGH just let his catholic ass perish.]
...I can, if you'd like... Do you know anything about it already?
[ killing the other church adult and possibly [redacted ] ]
I do hope it helped him, even if it's a little bit. [ she was under a cursed cocktail of things though so it may not have been much help but something is better than nothing ]
...It's not a concern, but thank you. [He would rather people think less of him actually!! But no one does and it's disconcerting for his Catholic Guilt.]
But yes, you can. I imagine you have questions about the Society of Exorcists...?
...Yes. It's a belief that the Minister teaches. God grants mercy and miracles to the pious and those who worship without question. Of course, that's not the actual case. He's just a madman with a taste for power.

Ah. [ Their low bar ] Even if it's not that much better, I'm glad it's a little better.
[ ... ]
I'm sure you've heard about our trip from Aerith.
no subject
His expression shifts into something a bit more somber at that, though, and he nods.]
I have, yes... I wish that I'd been able to make more direct contact in the aftermath. Were you able to speak with Mathis...?
no subject
She frowns a bit at that. ]
I have spoken to Mathis about it, and he feels guilty about it.
[ ... ]
Yuffie has also shared with me who she was there.

Don't feel bad, Lucas. [ She will actually try to place her hand on his arm. COLD COLD COLD ]
I did want to ask if there's something I could say or do for Mathis.

no subject
I know a little bit from Yuffie, but I didn't ask for the details. It didn't feel right without talking to you first.
no subject
...Thank you for your consideration. [Even if he doesn't think it's DESERVED. Cut my life into peaches this is my last fruit tart etc etc.]
Before I begin, have you been able to speak with Mathis about the things you experienced, at least?
no subject
He DESERVES IT even if he's a murderer in his world. ]
I have spoken to him about it. He even told me the truth about himself.
no subject
Ah... I'm glad that he was able to discuss it with you, then. I'm certain it's been difficult for him, not having many he can speak to about it.
no subject
I do hope it helped him, even if it's a little bit. [ she was under a cursed cocktail of things though so it may not have been much help but something is better than nothing ]
no subject
Also it's fine listen everyone's just doing their best out here even if they're heavily cursed.]
Being able to feel like he could help you also likely helped. ...Though our home is unpleasant, and I know it offers nothing good in the fog.

no subject
But yes, you can. I imagine you have questions about the Society of Exorcists...?
no subject
I do. Yuffie was mentioning something about god taking care of everything during it.
[ Does he want to start there or some where else ]
no subject
...Yes. It's a belief that the Minister teaches. God grants mercy and miracles to the pious and those who worship without question. Of course, that's not the actual case. He's just a madman with a taste for power.
