Monia let out an uncharacteristic snarl at Ophidian and then glared at her daughters who grinned even wider.<span style="color: #9999ff"> “Oh yes, it was a very… intense corruption process. It took months deep, hot, and passionate corrupting.”</span><span style="color: #ffa64d">“We were pure Sayaadi and she corrupted us. It wasn’t nearly as fun as my sister likes to pretend. But that doesn’t matter, she’s always been kind if a little distant.” </span>Monia folded her arms and looked away.<span style="color: #b30000">“I knew this was a mistake. Just take your Human and get out of my house.”</span><span style="color: #4d4dff">“There’s no need for that. Ophidian and I can head out to the beach and leave you girls to your work. We were just worried about seeing strangers in the house.”</span><br/><br/>Ras smiled and shook his head. “That’s easy. You just live every day with them to the fullest and you don’t cry because they’re gone, you smile because you made all of those memories with them. Not to belittle anyone but it’s a bit like adopting a pet. You know you will outlive them, but that doesn’t make your time together any less precious and wonderful.” He looked at his glass then back to Sylavandra. “Are you scared of getting too attached to Vincent because you know he won’t live as long as you?”<br/><br/>“Well I’m not a professional chef by any means, I’m just a man who enjoys cooking and experimenting. But even with my power I still do all of my cooking by hand, I just use my power to gather materials like an extra set of hands.” Louise listened to Vincent and looked at her hands.<span style="color: #99ccff">“I met Mister Animus at my farm, he was telling me and my pa about… about germs. And pa wanted to cut my hands off because he didn’t want no germs on his livestock. Our cows won awards you know. Handling glass? Um, I can wash things, yeah, that can’t be too hard. And I can bring you meals and… and I guess I can make sure you bathe and stay clean.”</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
