[ He nods decisively at the prevention comment. He understands completely: if shinki knew what a horrible, painful process ablution is, they'd be terrified of retaining blight. So long as Yukine keeps the details of the procedure a secret, shinki and their gods will remain ignorant of the true cost of blight, which will make Jay's work that much easier. ]

I pray I may be of some service.

[ And as much as he wants to pick Yukine's brain for the rest of the ablution process -- namely that incantation, and what a 'purgatory' consists of -- he doesn't want to tread too heavily here. Better to cut the conversation off now, and revisit the details of the ablution at a later date. ]

Is there anything else I should know about blight, so that I might continue to protect my god?

[returnedfromtheline]

To protect your god, huh…
I think every shinki has a different idea about that. But I think it’s being honest and talking to your god. Like, sure, our negative thoughts make them ache, but a little bit of that while you vent your frustrations is better than stinging.

[ Even something so small as a negative thought could make them ache? Oh, when he gets his hands on the person who made Tot so vulnerable angels will fucking weep. ]

It is a great responsibility that has been placed on us shinki, isn't it? A great thing to aspire to.

I don’t know about ‘aspire’… We're already it. I guess you can aspire to be the best shinki you can, though!

Anyway, you’re sure right in that we’ve got a lot of responsibility. Do your best, ‘kay? I talked about some heavy stuff, but you shouldn’t worry too much over something that hopefully won’t happen.
