[ grateful everyday for rodya. ]

I field requests that people seek me out for.

[inequals]

What kinda requests are those?

Like... ask for favours, help me shelve a book, kind of stuff?

[ravenry]

Every request they wish for me to do has a price. I find lost items, or I can summon ghosts.

[inequals]

These two things don't sound like they belong next to each other in a list.

Uhh, what do they call those. Oracles? Is that what you do?

[ravenry]

No. I do not look into the future. Some may think of me as a descendent of a priestess even if that is not completely accurate.

My title is the Raven Consort.

[inequals]

Like the bird, right?

[ Its evident that she doesn't really get it, but it do sound very cool. ]

They call you that 'cause of your hair?

[ravenry]

[ she nods. like the bird. ]

The royal court held birds in high esteem, so the titles of all the consorts in the Inner Palace are based off birds. There is a Crane Consort, a Mandarin Duck Consort, so on and so forth.

[inequals]

Man, who is needing this many consorts.

[ Rodion can vibe with that though, that sounds cool. She's not cognisant of it but I, Lowe, suffered in realising she's another bird-coded person. ]

And you all, uh, handle different duties and request types?

[ravenry]

It is normal for an emperor to have multiple.

[ help lowe you and your birds

there is a faint sense of reluctance at explaining the next part. ]

We have different duties, but mine are more different from theirs.

[inequals]

We don't have emperors in the City, so I don't really know how it all works.

In... a good way? Bad way?

[ravenry]

It depends on your perspective. Whether you prefer to be a wife or whether your prefer to lead souls to rest.

[inequals]

I think I'm probably a neither kind of person...

[ Imagine getting married and settled or involving yourself with the dead. ]

Buuut, I guess you're the... second one? If I'm keeping this story straight?

[ravenry]

[ listen, she could get a stipend for gambling if she got married, maybe. ]

Yes, part of my duty is receiving requests to guide souls.

[inequals]

That sounds like a pretty wild job. And totally not consort-compliant.

[ How can you tradwife your way into the monarchy if you're too busy being haunted by the dead? ]

How'd you end up doing a job like that? Doesn't sound like something you just kinda randomly fall into.

[ravenry]

[ LOWE I WANT A NEW PC FOR THIS WEEK

her emotions seem as if they're receding. ]

It would be better to say I was chosen for it.

[inequals]

[ SUFFERS IN WORK BUT HOLDS MY HANDS OUT FOR WEDNESDAY... ]

Alright, I get that.

[ Honestly. Some things you don't walk into, but they come to you -- and how are you supposed to explain away just how or why you got that job in a case like that? Sometimes, life is strange. ]

Hope you're at least getting something you like out of it.

[ravenry]

[ I WILL WRITE ONE FOR THURSDAY unless you're on a cyoa then you can leave me HANGING gurgles how does time go by so fast and my inbox get so unwieldy

instead of saying anything as an answer, she just stuffs her mouth with some food. ]

[inequals]

[ You as me, I'm suffering like how is it already almost Friday I have been suffering this entire week.

BUT GIRL MOOD they can spend the rest of this thread comparing the taste of different nutrition cubes and also Rodya showing Shouxue some modern day snacks. ]
