Albinia
Science, Responsibility, Ice | 
❧ Played by Sair |
 |
Appearance: As a human, she’s a grown woman, with pale skin, long light colored hair, and light blue eyes. She will never smile and either has a distant look or disapproving look most of the time.
Characteristics: Stern, serious, cold, reserved, scientific, socially awkward, rational.
Likes: Order, rules, responsibility, self-control, logic, science (Of all kinds, except mad scientist science.), scientific method, ice, frozen goods, ice sculptures (the one form of art she really enjoys), her sister, and she shares a joy of balance, dichotomy, and most importantly, popcorn with her sister.
Dislikes: Chaos, rule breaking, lack of control, irresponsibility, idiocy, mad scientist art, spicy food, hot drinks, most other forms of art, most things Kalidas likes, people who do not like popcorn, her sister, people messing with her sister. |
|
Shrine: An ice sculpture of a circular archway. The ice never melts and it’s cold to the touch, though people won’t ever get stuck to it. (Unless they lick it, in which case, they’ll be stuck there for an hour at least.)
Ritual: To summon her, the person needs to put their hand on the statue and list off some science type fact. (It does not necessarily need to be correct, just be something sciencey.)

NOTE 2: If there’s a high chance your character will be dickish to her/does terribly irresponsible things that hurt other people on a regular basis/is one of those guys who murders people, it would probably be better to actually thread that out because Albinia is finicky. |

Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
[She snaps her mouth shut and there is a moment where her face is just a frozen, cold wall.]
[Another sigh.]
Dealing with him left a bitter taste in my mouth. His trauma and age bought him a lot. That's why I will not turn him away entirely or did something more crippling.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Mm, I see. You're. . .awfully human, for a god.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
...
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
I don't mean that in a negative way, mind you. You're very prideful, but well meaning.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
[Leans against the wall and there's a bit less of an iciness to her expression.]
I am responsibility. How can I be responsible without being well meaning?
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
You're not one to be walked over, and you should never lose that disposition. . .but children, mortals, whatever we're referred to as, we're not your people. You'll have to earn their respect, and trust, just as they have to earn yours.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Ashikawa is a child, literally. Children are meant to be treated differently, because they are still learning. And it is the responsibility of those in charge to teach children and sometimes that requires punishment.
I am not unfair. I gave him warning. Plenty of warning, but he wouldn't listen. If anything, he thought I'd do worst and yet he still did as he pleased. That is not safe behavior. And if he would do that to gods, he could do the same with humans, who may do far worse things than I would.
And for everyone else, I have been more than fair and reasonable in what they ask of me.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
[nods, mostly at last statement]
Mm, I won't debate that, though I will ask you to please at least consider alternative methods of persuasion in the future, especially for those of the more bias nature. In any case, thank you for going with something so mild. We're not unfamiliar with the effect.

Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
...and I do not have a 'sense of entitlement.' I have a sense of 'I will not give someone who is rude information for absolutely free.' He rather liked to spin it that way.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
It wasn't on my list, but thanks.
That certainly clears up my concern, though I didn't come here solely to question your practices.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
You had wanted something?
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Yes, but something else as well. Another reason I brought the subject up was--well, I considered volunteering.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Plus, maybe if you had a volunteer, others might note that you aren't into this for nefarious purposes.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
I would like to hear out these ideas. But I know the human biology well enough by now that I can't gain much information. At least, not presently. After a couple of years being exposed to the poison, there will probably be something.
Mostly I'd want to study the affects nature had on people so I could see ways to counter it. That is my primary goal right now.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Though concerning the affects of poison--! You mean those trying to consume things that haven't been blessed, right?
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
I will keep that in mind, but there's no specific experiments that involve opening anyone up.
As well as those that have more personalized poisons, such as the...Lizagons, Flying Porcumonkey, and those draining mushrooms.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
F-flying Porcumonkey. . .[nods] Haven't seen that one yet, but I'll be on the look out for it.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
That seems to be the name going around. It's quills cause paralysis.
Re: Day 17, early afternoon?
Interesting. (Note to self, see about getting one of those asap.)
Though it sounds delicate to handle. . .what could I exchange right now for basic equipment? Gloves and tweezers for starters. And a proper pen and notepad.
