[Examining it curiously.]

So it's like a proof of contract?

Yes.

Also like....master privileges. [Frowning at it.]

?? How so?

[He hasn't actually picked up Rean is different from the other two.]

...you know.

The whole.

Subjugate a servant's will thing?

[??????

First of all how does Dusk know that's a thing? Second why is that a thing for Noon and presumably Loki???

Thirdly;]

How is that related?

[Actually come to think of it the wording doesn't quite add up but he's too surprised to think about it.]

....you....don't know?

Am I supposed to know?

What is this about subjugating servants?

Aren't....aren't Noon and Loki like you?

[Listen, it's all weird, he made a few assumptions.]

I mean, sort of? I can tell they're spirit familiars of some kind and they seem to need mana like I do but I don't know what they actually are. I haven't asked.

They aren't divine knights though, I know that much.

....

[He's gonna grab a pillow.]

[And just put it over into his face.]

[And maybe just scream into it, give him a minute.]

[Gonna. Gonna give him a minute??]

[Just gonna scream for a minute.]

[Then let himself be smothered for another minute.]

[Then he pulls away the pillow, giving the ceiling the most put upon look.]

Why are their multiple worlds where ancient spirits need to make contracts with people to live or get life energy from sex?

Why the fuck is that a repeating thing?

[Oh. Pfft. Laughing a little and petting his hair.]

Life force is life force. Is it that bad that humanity is consistent in how it's sourced?

Can't answer why ancient spirits are a regular thing though.

It sounds like a set up for a weird porno.

[He can just pout at the ceiling.]

Says this guy...

[Shaking his head in amusement.]

Mister "I'll sleep with you so you won't die".

I was responding to the logic that was already in place.

I hadn't even wanted to sleep with you at the time.

I know that, that's why it's so funny you complaining.

80H also seemed familiar with the concept so maybe it's something familiar in a lot of worlds.

Who knows, even your galaxy might have ancient spirits fueled the same way.

Adaption is important. Even to the crazy.

.....maybe that'd explain why I think magic is a thing despite all the sci-fi that is my life.

I mean, if we're dealing with ancient alien tech....

Maybe there are ancient alien spirits...

....maybe that's why we couldn't let them have the tech. Could be summoning ancient spirit warriors that never die.

Definitely not what you want your enemies to be up to.

Ugh. Can't just have better ships, might have immortal warriors too.

I wonder if humans could contract with ancient aliens though. Is human and alien mana even compatible? You'd think life force would be universal but you never know.

...I don't know.

I mean, the aliens looked pretty different. Hands, facial structures, stature. It doesn't seem like they're all the space species in the Covenant, so if there were heroic spirits, I'd think they'd be compatible with them.

Though how that'd work... [There's a pause.] Then again, there'd definitely be a human who'd try.

Yeah? Which one?
