...How about water, soil, and one of those rats? A dead one, obviously. I can get you all three.

If it's anything like a century ago, we could probably find what we need for testing in Thalass—uh. Didymos.

[ Still not used to that name, either. ]

It's less obtaining those and more keeping the samples clean that I'm concerned about. I have small ones for water and dirt, I'm not sure I have anything rat sized.

[Also, he's not sure he wants anything rat sized, although the idea of someone leaving a dead rat is like, the least weird thing Alucard's had to deal with in bit.]

We've made our encampment though, and I am loathe to leave it.

In this weather? I'll bet you don't.

[ Nevermind why he's out getting soaked. ~~Mostly just trying not to stay still too long with his thoughts.~~ ]

If you tell me what else you need for testing, I can find it for you. Probably.

Well, I'd rather you not be leaving me dead rats. You're not a cat after all, and plants are just as good and reliable for this as anything else.

Let me double check the components and I'll send a list in a few minutes.

Who wouldn't want the cold corpse of a singing death rat?

[ Said dryly. Yeah, okay, he's aware. ]

Alright, alright. Stay safe and dry in the meantime. Getting weird out there.

Who wouldn't indeed Noctis.

[Thanks buddy.]

It is.

I trust everything else is as well as it can be on your end?

Oh, you know. Just getting used to my new existence as an aimless, rootless walking corpse. What's not to love?

[ It might be raining, but at least he's dry in spirit. ]

If I ever find out who's responsible—

Well. They'd better hope I don't.

Mm. You and I are in absolute agreement on that front. It's...more complicated if the status of revived extends beyond simply yourself.

[ There's a very long pause. ]

Maybe you're right. Lot of dead people laying out there who probably deserve a second chance. Some of them are getting it now.

You've got at least one person you care about with you, yeah? Probably makes you feel a little differently about it.

Mmm. It's the perspective of someone isn't only meddling with your bones, but someone else's. Your dead, who don't need to be dragged into all of this.

[There have been....well, Alucard has always been low key furious about anyone touching Trevor's and Sypha's bones, but he'd be an utter liar if he did not admit that having them back was wonderful now. The real secret fear now was that someone might try the same stunt with Dracula and that? That's a thing to fear.]

Maybe.

[ Not sounding totally convinced here. ]

If you can have them with you again like this, does it matter so much about the details?

[ Maybe not the greatest path of thought to be going down, but he's always been a little selfish in moments of crisis. And right now? He's living his worst nightmare. ]

Some days, I care very, very much. Others, the thought does not occur. To call the matter complicated would be a gross understatement, I'm afraid.

...Might be better not to think too hard about it. We're stuck with it now. Might as well figure out how to live with it.

That's much easier said than done. I think that if I was alone, I'd be far more occupied.

Are you okay for living space?

Psh, not like I'm housing an entire family. One room at the Duke's plenty of space for just me by myself.

Plus, it's easy to pay for. I'll live.

It's worth asking after.

I'll leave you be and let you know what our investigations result in.
