The return home before this is all settled, first of all. That would be a popular one if it were possible. Bringing back those who've died here after they've been purified. The reconstruction of your home worlds...that's something else that would probably have to wait and be discussed much later, if at all.
That's ... actually a lot less limitation than I was expecting. The universe really does have the two of you on a short leash when it comes to the day to day here, huh.
Anyway. If I were to ask about, I don't know. Knowing if or when the darkness is acting, and being able to intercept? Is that possible? Or at least, to be able to wander even after it tries to put us to sleep?
Or maybe just being able to protect certain people from the darkness corrupting them if they don't have a partner. You did something to the house Mary was in- is there a way to replicate that on a smaller scale, maybe?
Mm...yeah, that kind of thing is possible. There are conditions that have to be met and other qualifications, but it's not at all impossible. The universe doesn't just let these things happen otherwise we'd be able to come back here on Thursdays, but it's not opposed if a favor is traded.
There are some time limitations in place, too, but you have options. [There's a thought though.] The house we placed Mary in was a special circumstance. I don't know how we could downsize and have it be that effective, but we could look into it.
Time limitations like we probably can't grant something that allows you to be awake every single Thursday or something like that, you know? [Which. Sucks.] And I mean it was something we created specifically for that cause because the universe knew we needed it. They're a little more picky if they think it's not something necessary. Overall, we can't mess with the setting that much.
That makes sense, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. [ universe is a dick, part 2 out of who knows how many. ] You'd think it'd consider it necessary considering that we haven't exactly solved the problem of corruption yet, just a few of its manifestations.
The options I mentioned earlier. [Yeah, yeah, universe is a dick, water is wet, etc.]
Let's do this the way I've done for a few others. You tell me exactly what you want, I can give you the best option to work around the universe's loopholes.
... The time limitations make me a little leery of asking for a way to nightwalk without knowing where I'd be needed, and I'd hate to waste such a precious opportunity, so... [ he hums a bit, thoughtfully and sharply. ] Should someone end up partnerless. And either there isn't someone there to pair them up with, or they simply can't be paired up, for some reason-
Would I be able to buy them time? Stop the corruption from getting to them, even without a partner bond in play?
...it might be possible to give them something to temporarily bind them to, but it would only last for a short time. Would something like that help, you think?
The most is maybe a week. One cycle to the next. And this is still maybe, Julius. I don't want to promise anything if we can't figure it out. But I bet Lune and I can ask the universe and bring the idea to them.

Big stuff like that.

[ (namine voice) the universe is a dick. but also, none of that is a no, so. ]
Time limitations? And what do you mean, special circumstance?

[ wait for a better option? for someone else to die, so they're not the odd one out? ]
-try to figure out a true solution to this. Depending on what that short time is.
[ is it like a week, a few days, or? ]
