Considering empatheias

I do not mind your desire to put me in that place, mundane, however, if merely writing my application brings you stress, I must advise against it as a doctor. At least working in longer periods like you are... I'd suggest taking breaks in between rather than push yourself.

It is quite some time until applications open again after all, and even if you don't apply this coming round, there are still many rounds to come.

I'd rather see that you don't torment yourself with my canon review. I understand that you do enjoy me as a character- why else would I be here?- but I also know that the work I am from is... Problematic.

*There isn't much he can say. The only pertinent things he could comment on would be rude - their vastly differing views on humanity as a whole, the way he will disregard someone if they aren't "good" enough. Mephisto has been kind to him in the past, which is more than he can say for another of the same name. So he won't bring up any of these.

Well, there is one thing they have in common, here and now. They're reaching for the same thing.*

Good luck.

Thank you, though it should rather be offered to my mundane.

[He does give a small smile though.]

[Well..this was an interesting person. He wasn't a Human, and nor was he an Angel. At least it seemed that he was concerned about his Mundane, but..]

I hope your Mundane takes your advice and gives herself breaks. It wouldn't be good if she got too stressed out or became sick because she ignored you or thought that she could press on. However, what are you?

[Raphael..]

One can hope, though she is unusually stubborn. She's already given herself a headache.

[The question makes him raise an eyebrow, though he doesn't seem like he feels insulted.] Another person with no tact I see. I do seem to attract those more than the average man does.

[That type is amusing though.]

You needn't worry about what I am, beyond that I am a doctor first and foremost.

Both our Mundanes seem to be that way. It's good that they don't want to give up, but I hope yours rests a little bit before it becomes worse. She can't continue if her head hurts. I..am trying to learn how to get better at using tact. However, while it is good that you're a doctor, it still doesn't tell me what you are. It seems you're not a Human or an Angel..are you a Demon?

[Really, that was all he wanted to know. If he wasn't, he would be a lot calmer around him. Probably.]

You'd think they'd both prioritize their health.

[But apparently not.]

If I were, what would you do, I wonder?

Especially since we cannot heal them when they're not feeling well. And if you were, I would try to make sure that you didn't steal souls that would normally ascend without pain or suffering.

All we can do is try and direct them to making healthy choices, unfortunately.

[He sighs ever so slightly.]

And please- I'm a doctor first and foremost. I've no interest in inflicting pain and suffering, nor do I have an interest in souls. [At least not in that way.] My interest is healing the sick and the injured, not causing unnecessary torment.

Of course. They have to use their free will to make the right choices.

[And, if they didn't, they could deal with a headache or lack of sleep. But, at Mephisto's response, Raphael smiled. Sure, he would still try to keep an eye on this person, since he could be lying, but..it he was telling the truth, there wouldn't be any reason to be wary of him, and for the moment, there wasn't any reason to disbelief him.]

Good. I'm glad to hear that. It's nice to meet a fellow healer. Perhaps we could work together once you arrived in this game.

[Raphael would approve of a big club of healers.]

"Stress"...?

A state of physical or emotional strain. [Emotional, in his mundane's case. She still has a headache from prolonged focus...]

It would seem she's pushing herself too hard.

[Much to his annoyance.]

[ Strain. Emotion. 'Pushing too hard.' 'Pushing.' ]

Lie 'still.'

She should. [His mun should definitely do that.]

She might give herself a stroke at this rate. [He sigh ever so slightly.]

(ooc: of course mine's mostly from the novel though XD; but icons .-.)

They... 'like' caresses.

[ ooc; icons are the best reason c: ]

[Ah. That would be a misunderstanding.]

Perhaps. But a stroke in this context is a loss of brain function as a result of the blood flow being disrupted.

[Simplified explanation, go!]

(ooc: yes XD i'm having a friend scan the second volume of the manga soon too so. more icons, go! way too many adorable things happen in it.)

Strokes... kill?

[ He likes that, red on his hands. Murder. ]

Useful.

Not always, no, though it is a possibility.

[It all sort of depends. Depends on the type of stroke, when the patient arrives at hospital a lot of times... There are a lot of variables.]

*Well all of them, players and characters, are going to be under scrutiny by the app process, but...*

...Is it that bad?

[ All right, then, in review - ]

You do not want this person killed.

[ ... ]

Is she a weapon to you?

I don't, no.

[And...]

Not quite. Simply put, you could say my fate is tied with hers. If something happens to her, then I too, will suffer for it.

[Ah, the issues of being a muse in a headspace.]

I'm convinced she'll make herself ill at this rate, so a good amount of luck is needed it seems.

Of course that same free will can lead them to make the wrong ones.

[Wouldn't be free will if it couldn't after all.]

If I arrive, then it's a possibility.

How can your canon be so horrible as to make a reader ill?

*Well, aside from disturbing visuals. He's found that...actually...that doesn't have much effect on a lot of mundanes.*

You won't be killed.

[ At least, not until he sorts out a way to do it. ]

The woman may live. Must live.

That would be preferable, yes.

[Though his mundane is becoming more and more distressed...]

(ooc: In case you haven't seen it btw! Some cuteness!)

See it done.

[ ooc: omg so cute! ]

Of course.

[He won't let anything happen to his mundane... At least not so long as he can stop her from being stupid.]

(ooc: I know, right?! There's this too.)

And think less. Your thoughts are loud.

[ That's right - someone's trouble is a personal inconvenience. ]

[ ooc; lmfao Soyogi looks about to cut something. ]

However, they can also see those wrong choices and choose to make the wrong ones. We simply have to hope that they will.

[The many faults of free will.]

Good. I shall be looking forward to it, if you arrive.

Something about how it's written, she says. "The most obnoxious use of any written language I've ever seen, the author making it obvious who his favorite is, a confusing story line and the biggest plot vehicle she's ever seen", it seems.

One might start asking why she wishes to put me anywhere, really, considering those are her feelings.

Clearly, she likes you above the rest of your canon. Though with an author like that, perhaps it will be good for you to be placed in a more...fair situation.

*Sometimes he wishes his would show a little favoritism but...would people not like them, then?*
