Is it really true? Can he really bring the dead back to life? Something seems a bit off about his offer, though ...

... it's taken much too long. I only killed him so he would know ... not so he would disappear ...

No, it's not true. Don't take his offer... the one you're wanting to bring back will be a machine with their soul in it, under the Earl's control. They'll hate that they were brought back, they'll kill you and take your body, then the two of you'll be a creature called an Akuma. It's what we Exorcists fight to free the souls again.

M'sorry, I don't even really know you, but... I had to tell you all that. Don't listen to the Earl, yeah?

Oh ... I see. So, it really is impossible ...

... thank you for telling me.

M'sorry, man. I know his promises sound good, but s'a lot of pain once he goes through with 'em. S'better to let the dead rest in peace. Or get brought back by the Malnosso, like it happens here sometimes.

I knew he was gonna try to start makin' Akuma again here. If you know anyone else who's lost someone... let 'em know 'bout this, yeah?

I ... I know. Making certain that the dead are given their rest was my job in my world. But this case is ... different to me, I suppose ...

... hn. I will.

[gojyo_saaama]

If they died an' th'Malnossi didn't bring 'em back, just let 'em go, kid.

[13th_and_14th]

But it wasn't supposed to happen this way ... he was supposed to come back after I-- ...

[gojyo_saaama]

You want him here? Wings sewn on his back, surrounded by crazy violent fuckers and then gettin' dragged off an' tortured?

[13th_and_14th]

... putting it that way, I suppose it would be for the best that he didn't return ... however ...

You can't!

I ... I would do anything to bring him back, but ... I know not to. I was already told of what the Earl's intentions are.

[isshoniyume]

Hm I'm not sure I trust him. If he really can do that, I doubt it would be for free. Yuuko-san always says you have to give something of the same value of the thing you want.

((yay Yuuko's wiseness is spreading XD;))

[13th_and_14th]

Hn, I was just warned about him. It seems it was some sort of trick. Yuuko-san? That name seems familiar.

[[OOC: According to something Yuuko said in ... I think the first volume of XXXHolic, she knew Hokuto and Subaru and mentioned something about them, so he's probably heard her name around somewhere.]]

[isshoniyume]

Yes...reviving dead people should be impossible. If he says he can do it, then it should be some sort of trick.

((yeah she did. I figure she must know everyone in CLAMP canons XD;))

[13th_and_14th]

It should, yes ... however, the Malnosso are able to, after all. Even then, there is a penalty, but still ...

[[OOC: Yeah, she probably does XD;]]

He can bring them back. Don't pay attention to those Exorcists. They just want to see people in pain, and the Duke wants to see everyone happy.

[13th_and_14th]

... how am I supposed to believe you after what I've been told of him?

[[OOC: l-lol, now that Subaru knows that he was speaking with exorcists, he's actually more likely to trust them over Lulubelle, since onmyouji = medium = exorcist XD; Also, work killed my mind, sorry for the repost >>;]]

[noah_morpher]

How are you supposed to believe them?

They're enemies of the Earl, they'll make up lies to people to keep loved ones separated.

[13th_and_14th]

I am more inclined to believe those who have a similar job to my own. Although, it is true that I know nothing of them.

... would they ... really do that? They don't seem like the type of people to do something like that to others ...
