Re: ( text. )

[structuraldefect]

Don't tell me you got banned again.

( text. )

[effulge]

Banned? Hardly. Don't become too presumptuous, now - I may as easily withdraw my generous inclusion.

[structuraldefect]

I certainly don't intend to interfere.

[effulge]

As I anticipated. Now, do you recall the device I've displayed to you earlier?

[structuraldefect]

Of course. It'd be very difficult to forget.

[effulge]

Of course. Surely, then, you've not forgotten what is capable of. A pity it would be, to allow such opportunity to introduce it slip from our grasp.

[structuraldefect]

Perhaps the ongoing viruses could provide some cover, in this regard.

[effulge]

You speak as though I have not already settled upon placement.

[ a beat: ]

Your suggestions for "one of the clergy"?

[structuraldefect]

[gil pls.]

Latin, I would think.

[effulge]

Use your knowledge, then. Though it is not "me", I shall take no name that suits me ill.

[structuraldefect]

Surely you know what would suit best.

[effulge]

As though there is any doubt? A play upon my current title would be sufficient; I've little faith in the cleverness of many who would "grace" this community.

[ a beat: ]

-- Unless Kotomine Kirei would choose to let such a jest flee from him? How unlike you.

[structuraldefect]

If you insist.

Aureole, then.

[ex_aureole282]

[ the connection seems to hang, for a moment or two. for a moment or two, spilling into others - extending past the shorter pauses he is likely so accustomed to, by now.

a quicker check of his suggestion had revealed a good match - and fortune, who remained upon his arm, offered up the name without protest. bestowed it upon him, without fuss, with swift confirmation and the depression of keys.

and there is almost pleasure in the way the words seem to form, even across the division of text and the division of time, ended: ]

It shall do.

[ a beat: ]

A name for this man will appear when required; I am ever assured your tomes shall supply more than is needed.

[structuraldefect]

No trouble?

This may take some time.

[effulge]

None.

A priest should know of the names bestowed upon others. If there are none to be found in your books, then there are many to be found upon the skins of those who would walk among you.

[structuraldefect]

Well, yes. Though I doubt Clement would suit.

[effulge]

[ casually looking up this name. there's certainly quite a number, but one in particular... ]

Obviously. [ a beat: ] A passive name hardly bears means to lay rest upon me.

[structuraldefect]

Of course.

Leo, I would think, if that's the case.

[effulge]

And here you had stated it would require time.

[ a beat: ]

A strong name while still remaining suitably inconspicuous - it is passable.

[ten minutes later]

[structuraldefect]

Did I? It must have slipped my mind.

Would that be all, then?

( i like how this is a causal flip off: two hours later. )

[effulge]

Did it, now.

[ YEAH, HE BELIEVES YOU. YUP. ]

I've yet to decide.

[deal with it: thirty minutes later]

[structuraldefect]

I could certainly take longer, if you prefer.

( no u: forty minutes later )

[effulge]

As certainly as I may remove the generosity of further inclusion, is it?

[structuraldefect]

I'd say they were roughly equivalent. Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Re: ( text. )

[structuraldefect]

Would you? I'm sure there's more information to be found, even if not from such a newfound source.

Have you already begun, then?

( text. )

[effulge]

Is there? One would have to work tediously to see it unearthed.

[ No wonder what he's referring to, really. ]

I wonder.
