i don't think he had a motive to lie

he volunteered it, i didn't ask him about dying or anything

[digiorno]

even if that's true

it would still be unpleasant

one would imagine

[starmark]

i'm more concerned with figuring out who's got the power to do that

and how they got it

[digiorno]

it's a natural extension of the power you've already seen

they can change our biology entirely, it's hardly a stretch to go from that to bringing back the dead

[starmark]

raising the dead isn't about biology though

is it?

[digiorno]

i suppose that depends on what you believe

[starmark]

biology doesn't explain ghosts

[digiorno]

are you sure?

[starmark]

a ghost is someone's soul, isn't it?

so to be alive you need both. body and soul. a body is one thing but a soul is different.

i don't know. i'm not sure. how can anyone be an expert about something like that?

[digiorno]

luck, bad

and experience

the soul is connected to the body. a soul transplanted into a foreign body would be rejected teh same way a foreign heart would. there is an element of biology there.

[starmark]

i've only ever seen souls transplanted into objects

is that still biology? honest question.

[digiorno]

inorganic objects? i don't think so

[starmark]

a puppet. and poker chips.

[digiorno]

what the shit

[starmark]

don't look at me i don't fucking know

some bastards wanted to play games with people's souls on the line

[digiorno]

that's disgusting

[starmark]

i made them regret it

[digiorno]

good



there was a man

he preyed on the weak

he tried to kill my

a friend of mine

so, he regretted it

people who play games with mine will regret it

[starmark]

i'm sick of people who prey on the weak

sick of people who take hostages to play their games with

sick of people who hurt my friends too

sounds like we've got that in common

[digiorno]

it's what i was trying to do at home

change that

not just with stand users, with everyone

if i'm going to be stuck here then here is where i'll do it but i can't trust these people

[starmark]

who's "these people"

[digiorno]

anyone, at first

the locals especially but it's not as though there's a vetting process for who gets brought in

it's a matter of best judgment

and then a benefit analysis of who is least likely to eviscerate me on a whim

[starmark]

i'm assuming that means you don't think i'm going to eviscerate you

...

i never told you what my stand does

but you'd still trust me to get it back

[digiorno]

you were trying to protect me, that first day

so i think you wouldn't try to hurt me unless i tried to hurt you first, and at that point i couldn't really blame you

[starmark]

...

so

do you think a person's stand says something about who they are?

if i'm a good person, then i must have a good person's stand?
