[pathopen]

No. I think I'm okay.

[He's not quick about climbing in, but he does, eventually, make it.]

[nascens]

[GOOD WORK LAD. He just gives a little, approving nod when Nameless makes it over.]

Not so difficult, is it? [There's probably enough room in the center for them to sit, even, considering there's definitely enough room for maintenance workers. He finds a little perch, peering out across the island.]

Not a bad view, either.

[pathopen]

Yeah.

[It wasn't as bad as he thought it would be! And he doesn't have any fear of heights, which is certainly useful.

He'll take a seat up here with Scaramouche and survey the island and all the lava in between.]

You can see a lot more when you're not in the pod.

[nascens]

[IMAGINE IF HE JUST DISCOVERED A SURPRISE FEAR OF HEIGHTS IN THE MIDDLE OF CLIMBING.]

Exactly. I imagine the metal would block a lot out, and the windows look grimy, anyway. It's a shame we don't have anything to throw.

[WHY.]

[pathopen]

[There's a reason he doesn't have that!]

... To throw? What do you want to hit?

[CHILDE?]

[nascens]

[HM...

Also he's just giving him a look like "I have to have a target??"]

It would just be entertaining to see where it fell.

[pathopen]

[Why would you throw something if you didn't want to hit something??
Not that either of them are Archers.]

There's the stale popcorn...?

[Unsure if that would work for fun throwing.]

[nascens]

[STOP LISTEN he does want to hit something, but it's more fun when it comes like a strike of divine lightning from above with no real intent or purpose!]

You could hardly do any damage with that.

[pathopen]

[He's just looking down at the clown carnival and the maze with the scarecrows.]

That's true.

[It's not heavy enough to do real damage to anything.]

[nascens]

[the way i was going to have him suggest the throwing knives and then remembered this thread happens on monday]

Not much here could, now that I'm thinking about it.

[pathopen]

[Thinking...]

Aren't there bottles in one of the games?

[you know, ring toss?

i wish he didn't remember this]

[nascens]

[I ALSO WISH HE DIDN'T]

Ah, you're right. Some of them are stuck to the table quite strongly, but I'm sure a few could be wiggled off with a little effort.

[At least he doesn't feel like climbing back down so soon after climbing up, so anyone meandering through the park is safe for now...]

[pathopen]

[A small nod, but Nameless is also not willing to get down. He managed to get up here okay, but he needs a little time to rest.]

[nascens]

[They are just Vibin.]

I wonder if a fall from this height would be enough to kill someone.

[Why can't he vibe normally.]

[pathopen]

[If only Nameless would note this as concerning. He does not.

They're pretty high up, aren't they?]

I think it's enough for most people.

[nascens]

[NAMELESS. Unfortunately he just keeps scoring points in Scaramouche's book.]

For most people, most likely. For humans, without a doubt.

[pathopen]

... ? Do you know people who aren't human?

[This height probably wouldn't kill a Servant.]

[nascens]

[Also probably not an Archon, except for the ones piloted by players........]

Here, you mean? There are plenty of us. That woman with the wings, the oni, the black-haired god... There are probably fewer humans than non-humans. If you mean back home, then the answer is still yes. I'm not - many of my colleagues aren't, either.

[pathopen]

I meant back home.

[ But it's nice to know they're both not human. ]

All of my... Siblings are like me. I think this height would kill any of us.

[ Squishy. Not made to last. ]

[nascens]

[Not human club! Hell yeah! He casts over a curious look.]

Hm. ...I guess it makes sense, if you're created for the sole purposes of being discarded, anyway. [HARSH but he doesn't say it unkindly so much as matter-of-factly.]

[pathopen]

[He's not at all offended. That's just a sad fact of his life.]

Some of them were made as soldiers, so they're a little sturdier.

[Not him though!]

[nascens]

Only a little? You'd think they would have made soldiers much, much sturdier. Humans don't usually think things through, though.

[Sasuga stinky humans.]

[pathopen]

It's not like they're invested in us surviving.

[nascens]

Hm. What are you made from, anyway?

[Said with a curious little lilt as he kicks one leg out over the edge, idle.]
