Confession II (Phone)

[shotapope]

[It had been hard for Alessandro since he awoke in Mayfield, especially hard after her found himself erased, especially during the holidays.... But if it was one thing Alessandro could do, it was move on rather well. Lots of things hit him hard, but he always managed to move on somehow, perhaps it was a special skill in denial, or perhaps it was

[ooeeooahah]

That could be a good idea.

Forgive me for asking, but you sound a bit young to be ordained, at least in my world.

[shotapope]

Ah! Um....

[He seems a bit ashamed.]

I-it's alright... m-my case is a l-little different....

[ooeeooahah]

I hope you were allowed to be called, then. Let me know when you plan to celebrate Mass, I'd like to observe, for the memory of my grandparents.

[shotapope]

O-of course! I'll m-make sure to a-announce the time and date. M-maybe Father Nightroad will help me.

[heteropennae]

Any chance for people to grow closer to God should be taken.

[shotapope]

Th-that is exactly what my S-Sister would say. I... I c-can only hope that... that I c-can do what is n-needed for everyone without... without m-messing up.

[heteropennae]

I can try to help where I can... though I mostly only sing and play the piano at the Church.

[shotapope]

I-I'm sure that will be h-helpful too. N-normally I... I just r-read something someone else w-wrote for me, make a b-blessing and then leave....

[ofroyalred]

As it is an annual tradition, even if it is not on the Holy Day itself, I think a proper celebration for those with their faith in God would be especially helpful. As you said, it is comforting.

[shotapope]

And it w-will help with these t-times of strife. I c-can only pray that I w-won't let everyone down....

[ofroyalred]

It will be alright. That you want to undertake it at all shows a great amount of your personal investment in it.

I'm sure those that would attend would already simply be grateful for the opportunity to show faith as such.

[shotapope]

I hope so.... P-perhaps it was fortunate that I have b-been returned my v-vestments for this.

[forgottenmagia]

Oh, it's wonderful that you're taking the chance to spread your denomination. See, dear? You're a good leader.

I should probably try and erect a makeshift temple when I have the time.

How was your holiday, by the way?

[shotapope]

I w-wasn't thinking about spreading.... I p-probably should though, S-Sister always says that opportunities to spread the Word of God should a-always be taken....

I'm j-just not sure if I can a-actually do Mass... I... I'm always r-really bad at it. Someone else does the Eucharist for me, and I d-don't usually have to s-stay for long.

[There's a long pause.]

D-distressing....

[forgottenmagia]

Maybe practicing is something you can work on. Then if your sister turns up, you can show her how good you've gotten at the ceremonials.

I...actually meant besides the erasing.

[shotapope]

I... I wouldn't mind g-getting better.

[There is a very audible sigh.]

I d-didn't really have one....

[ceilingdemonis]

Hmm. [As if he actually has to think about it.] No. That sounds boring.

[shotapope]

Oh....

[A long pause.]

I-is that a no you w-wouldn't be interested or n-no I c-can't use the Church?

[ceilingdemonis]

I would not be interested at all. I do not even think I could step into such a place without catching fire, though I do not know, I have not tried yet...

[shotapope]

Catch fire?
