getoutofmytemple), Jyn Erso (insurgent), Rhys (rhygret), and Zevran (agradecido); probably guest starring others at some point!
What: Catch-all for space fantasy dreamhouse shenanigans
When: ca. The Descent Pt.3
Where: House #4
Warning(s): nudity but not in a sexy way.......
[ In the story so far, one of the bedrooms has been claimed by Jyn and Abelas, while the other hosts Rhys and Zevran.
Now let's skip to the part where Rhys gets locked out for hogging the loo. ]

[ Well, that is a weight off his shoulders. He's pretty sure it would be dickish to say he's relieved but...well, he is? It's not great that Abelas's people did it instead for sure, he definitely wouldn't say that. It's just...good...that it wasn't people, you know?
Man that still sounds bad, he's just not going to comment on that. ]
Wait no hold up--back up there Abelas, you said your Goddess died? How? Isn't that what Gods are supposed to be all about? Not dying because they're impossible to kill?
no subject
[Which basically boiled down to killing the humans that tried to reach their cities. Problem solved. Perhaps not the most.. humane way of doing it, but it was efficient and in his people's perspective at the time, the humans died so fast it hardly mattered.]
She was slain, if a God truly can be. I have been informed here that a part of her yet lived, and that she had taken a new vessel. But she slumbers as do the rest from my world so I cannot be certain. I make no claim to understand godhood, it is possible she was no god but merely a being of terrifying power.
The intricacies matter not to me, she was just and noble. She cared for her people and protected them, and in her service I was able to do much the same. My only regret is that I failed in my service to her.

[ Religion beyond the Cult of the Vault hasn't really been a huge thing in any aspect of Rhys's life on any of the planets he's lived on. Everyone on Helios worshipped Jack and on Pandora people more or less worshipped loot and money. Deities aren't so prevalent as they were before, although he knows they're still out there. Somewhere.
Rhys runs a hand back through his hair. ]
Sleeping's better than being dead though right? That's good news.
no subject
[It was not something he expected anyone here to understand in all honesty. He was alone in this, and many other things. At least he was somewhat accustomed to the isolation.]
My people used such a slumber as a substitute for death as it were. When you are destined to live indefinitely, life can grow weary. When one felt the time was right, they would put themselves into a slumber, or hibernation called uthenera. If Mythal does not wish to awaken, then I have doubts she shall.
[That did not mean he did not wish her to, but he no longer had it in him to hope for such things.]
If she had wished to say anything to my Sentinels and I, she had nine ages to do so. My fate is what it is. My duty failed, my people gone, and the one who I would once turn to for guidance remains ever-silent.
no subject
[ There's always the possibility right? If Goddess could be killed, why not trapped or imprisoned?
Of course that's assuming they follow any sort of logic where Abelas is from, but Rhys can't help but try to think of a reason for that predicament if for no other reason than to try and make him feel better. It just seems like that's what he should be doing? If Rhys believed in a god that vanished he imagines he'd be pretty bummed out too.
It's weird to try and offer Abelas comfort though, and it shows in his demeanour. ]
no subject
[Abelas remains quiet for a time and simply observes Rhys. The human obviously gained nothing by saying such things, and however awkward the attempt was, he was trying to offer comfort. It was a small kindness, one he often did not expect to find from others, certainly not something he expected of this one.
But it was a kindness all the same, and he would not so easily dismiss such a rare thing.]
...but thank you all the same.
no subject
All the sourness and moodiness in his behaviour makes a lot more sense now and it's harder for Rhys to just write him off as being an ass. ]
You're...welcome.
