It is, at least a little bit.

[Noa pauses, since she's uncertain about how to explain it. She hasn't been here that long, but she at least knows the basics.] We're all from different worlds, and we get brought here by the gods. Like, we show up in the castle and get that letter, and that's kind of it! But everyone here that I've met is very kind and helpful, so it's not like you're completely lost, at least.

[granter]

Then there's a great balance between us, if that's the case.

[A pause. It seems like a different conversation entirely, but they're linked for her.]

Though, out of curiosity, does this pessimist believe in fate?

[modestchivalry]

[COUGHING regain your composure, castor] Not at all! You just startled me a little. I am fine.

[granter]

It is! And it's not something that I like to take, since possessing such a thing is a dangerous, heavy weight.

[She brushes some hair over her shoulder with a thoughtful expression, but whatever she's considering, she doesn't speak about.]

But that's why I take an assumed name. For most, it doesn't matter at all, don't worry. Only those with great magical or supernatural power have to worry.

[whatagoodgirl]

What happens when you take a soul? [Now she's actually leaning across the table a little. She's utterly hypnotized.]

[begrudged]

Sorry. I guess I thought you were some fancy well to do person.

[ SHE THOUGHT YOU WERE RICH BECAUSE OF THE CLOTHES. ]

[entreats]

.. Fate? [ It is a little strange of a question, but Ange's good at going along with random conversation turns after all the talk with witches back home. ]

You mean like believing in the fact that everything happens for a reason?

[granter]

That depends on why the soul was taken.

[She's silently relishing in this interest, and takes a sip of her coffee before she continues]

If it was paid as a price to obtain something, then the one who takes it does not carry the burden. But if it was stolen, then they carry the burden in full. It's not easy to explain what that burden is, because it's something intangible. It's karma, but as an absolute.

[whatagoodgirl]

... so you really, truly can sell a soul...?

[It's only half-question, because this woman intimidates her a little, but she can't help but wonder if she's having a tale spun for her.]

[granter]

You can! But that's a very high price—the highest that I would accept.

[Her smile widens, and she doesn't wait for her to ask to elaborate] I'm in the business of granting wishes. But for a price, of course. ♥

[windwalker]

[ Awkward... Awkward Turtle Castor. ] Eeeh, not really, but kind of. There's a kid that I know from where I'm from though we're not really from the same world, but... Technically, our worlds were fused into this bundled mess due to the whims of some deity or something.

Did you pop out of the Welcome Hall alone, Castor? Or did you bring your actual mistress with you. [ She's kidding and going to pat his back a bit. ]

[curvature]

Yeah, but they're also kind of different. [ He scratches his cheek as he thinks about it. ]

There's a lot... You can check on the network and see how different they are like that--[ eeeh? ]

You're new, huh.

[curvature]

[ Sir Castor of the Fluffy Hair Kingdom of Bright Sunshine... ]

Oh, Heimdall is a nice place. Have you checked your room at least?

[modestchivalry]

[Y E P]

I haven't gotten a chance, actually. I was trying to get a feel of the place first. [actually he's lost]

1/2

[modestchivalry]

That sounds... Very confusing. r-rather complicated.

[modestchivalry]

[wait what did she ask?]

I-I have no such person! I just ah, I arrived here alone.

[windwalker]

Eh? You don't?! [ Oh so surprised, totally. She'll wag her finger at him. ]

I guess we know what we're going to do first then!

[curvature]

... Really? [ No, Castor, no. Konoe knows what it's like to be lost too well to fall for this so he's staring at the knight.

Staring.

You know how cats don't blink?

Yeah, he's staring until the blond fesses up. LAST CHANCE!! ]

[modestchivalry]

P-... Pardon? [WHAT DOES THAT MEAN please be joking]

[windwalker]

A girl will loosen you up! [ OR A HOOKER! YEAAAH, obviously it will make him stop that weird talk! Totally. She is joking though... But anyway. ]

Or a guy! If you swing that way; no judging here.

[modestchivalry]

[okay that staring really gets him so he cracks]

Well... uh..

[modestchivalry]

[WELP HE STILL CAN'T TELL so he's going to wave his hands & blush like a fool]

N-No..! There, u-uh... there is no need f-for that! I mean, it isn't necessary.

[curvature]

[ Jiiiiiii. Ears perked and tail swishing side to side.

He is like peering into your soul without meaning to--but he's actually just waiting for Castor to finish. ]

[windwalker]

[ Little one, you are going to overheat like that. ]

What?! I already have the perfect people in mind for you! [ LET HER HOLD YOUR HANDS IN HERS. ]

[darkbreak]

No. No powers do, and they replace any abilities that you might have from home with something from this world.
