( graveyard: we're cursed..........3 )

[ since there's more of us now, let's set up a scene...ish. we're at the beach! hooray!! it's our government mandated party game!! hopefully everyone is going to be well behaved because law won't give two shits. he's already arranging this for some reason unknown to man. indulgences? indulgences....... everyone get your sins in. taps on watch???

of course there is booze because there is always booze. law does not perceive the meth. (if there is any.)

NOW!! EVERYONE. TWO TRUTHS & ONE LIE. ]

Hm. Well, bodily rejection is a thing, but given the level of magic involved, we can assume that the body won't reject the new blood on the basis of physical incompatibility. If you're asking me what would happen if Dog's body had physically rejected Deldro, then they would've both just died. Dog, since his body would be bloodless, and Deldro, because he would be nothing more than liquefied mush.

In the case of emotional incompatibility though, it would become a matter of dominance, wouldn't it?

[ He accepts these morbid curiosity vibes. He's interacted with some weird scientists and hackers before in his life, Mahito cannot possibly be the worst. Since Mahito isn't like, raving to try it on somebody IMMEDIATELY, they're just talking about it as a possibility. ]

[God bless Steven but also someone help Steven and also his entire world. Absolute hilarity. It's possible that the only reason he doesn't want to try it Right Now Immediately is because he can't, but it's fine.]

Huh. Guess it makes sense! It'd have been fun to see a really violent rejection, though. Like one of 'em explodes!

[Mahito is just the curse equivalent of burning ants with a magnifying glass...]

Makes sense, though. I wonder what would happen to the conscience that fell behind, in that sort of battle. Like, would it disappear? What would happen to the soul? I wonder if it'd fall dormant or if it would dissolve or something.

I've never seen a rejection version of this kind of procedure, so who knows? It could be possible. [ Like a dad just entertaining their kid's most wildest imaginations... ]

I don't think it'd disappear, not unless the body itself is also destroyed. [ Or in one-half of that equation's case, the "blood". ] I personally imagine it would be kind of a mental confinement, in that case. Trapped in your shared body while the other personality takes up all the control.

Like a brain in a jar.

[Steven... He really did just adopt a horrific flea. Mahito's perfectly content to continue entertaining these bad ideas!

There is also absolutely a rush of clear amusement at the mention of a brain in a jar. It's fine, probably.]

Huh! Funny to think about the brain being trapped, in that kinda scenario. [IS IT, SIR.] I guess someone stuck like that would probably wish their body had rejected and exploded!

[ It's fine it's actually insane how well Mahito would fit right in with all his other ~~adopted children~~ terrible subordinates. I mean, he has 1. a garbage sex man 2. a tired merman 3. a not-invisible not-werewolf girl who could drink the entire wine supply of the entire USA in one night 4. one giant beast gentleman 5. a literal zombie butler 6. aforementioned combination serial-killer himbo............ he literally would so not be out of place in the majority of these folk it's crazy.

Also you would not believe how often Steven's seen a brain in a jar, or hell, a whole head removed still alive. What the fuck? ]

I think so, after a period of time. After all, how long can a person really handle solitary confinement in their own body, not being able to do anything but sit and watch?

[I ABSOLUTELY HATE THIS SO FUCKING MUCH OOOOOO my god. Wow. Mahito's really just going to hop from one wildass crowd to another, the hilarity of it.

Congrats on your large memory collection of brains in places and states they shouldn't be in though, friend.]

Yeah, I think that'd even get on my nerves after a while. [He says, like he wouldn't absolutely self-destruct within like 2 seconds.] Mercy kill!

[ THE SECRET UNLOCKED... HOW TO ACTUALLY KILL MAHITO FOR REAL. ]

Yep. There you go. [ He just nods to this nonsense. ] Grand punishments come in unexpected forms.
