[ She knows that's the answer, but she doesn't like it. ]

Perhaps we will be lucky, and it will not happen again at all.

[championofsnark]

I mean, so far you haven't described anything that sounds bad though, maybe your ability isn't a big deal so you don't have to worry about it. Or maybe it's great and you'll eventually figure it out.

[stabsbooks]

It is possible.

[ She's not counting on it, though. There's a delay before her next message comes through. ]

And your power?

You have not used it?

[ She keenly hopes. ]

sorry for wait, you know *waves at life*

[WHELP]

Kind of need the blood to accidentally use it anywhere, and I'm not about to cut up my arm to do it.

[Lies.]

Also, you know, yuck.

don't worry i Get It

[ It's not the decisive rejection of the very idea of using it that Cassandra had hoped for, but maybe it's the best she can expect.

There's another pause, as if she's thinking hard about how to respond. ]

Good.

[championofsnark]

Clarke was concerned that you were having a crisis of faith here, regarding our powers and whether or not the Maker is involved in giving them.

[ Which he definitely is not, but Cassandra believes very strongly in his omnipotence so. ]

I told her I have no ability to help with that. You ever think of asking around, seeing if there are other people in your situation?

[stabsbooks]

[ The frostiness is nearly tangible through text. ]

What situation?

[championofsnark]

Religious sorts. From their own world. Maybe struggling with what it means to be in a place that doesn't worship as they do.

[stabsbooks]

I am not 'struggling.'

[ she is struggling. ]

[championofsnark]

Bullshit, Cassandra. I'm not stupid.

[stabsbooks]

I am fine, Hawke.

My faith is strong enough to sustain me. Even here.

[championofsnark]

Have you accepted that the Maker isn't here?

[stabsbooks]

[ lol bye ]
