Ah... nothing too exciting. I'd had quite the conversation with someone who I found myself at odds with, and when all was said and done, found myself here. [ an extremely vague answer but like what do you expect ] What about you?
Real vague. But fair enough in a place like this right now. [ go king, give us nothing. siiiiiiip. ] I was clocking a batshit insane priest in the face. Very important stuff.
[ so, close enough. he's smiling as he says it, the usual placid expression he always seems to wear. ] Rather, a heretic who'd been playing the part of one for quite some time, who had rather grand plans of bringing about the destruction of the world.
I suppose the punch in the face was a bit metaphorical, but the meaning is the same.
[ it literally just. takes her a minute... she looks like maybe she's trying to stop herself from going on a face journey to literally anywhere but here. until finally: ]
You think they have like... a club for this kinda thing.
[ because uh ]
That or it's a really... really weird coincidence.
[ why do weird religious people/heretics wanna just end the world? ]
[ she makes a face. this whole superhero thing is so silly to her (a jojo). but it is what it is. ]
Weird thing to have in common with a total stranger. So... you're a priest too, then...? And no diabolical plans to end the world. Maybe you'll change my mind on how I feel about the clergy these days.
Ahaha. No, no diabolical plans of ending the world - nowadays, apparently I'm saving it.
[ both here and outside. ] As for the clergy, well - you can feel however you like about them, and I certainly won't stop you. Some are good. Some are bad. And some apparently deserve a very, very good punch in the face.
That being said, I am a member of the clergy, yes, but I'm not technically a priest. An inquisitor and a cleric, if we split hairs on the matter.
[ with a little shrug, he will list off his duties, light and lofty: ]
Guiding wayward lambs onto the proverbial path, giving services and Sunday school, memorizing history and scripture, doing errands for the Pontiff, interrogating and occasionally smiting heretics... The usual.

That's right. Just Jolyne.

So what's an inquisitor-slash-cleric do on the daily then? Besides saving the world and punching naughty nuns?
