Details
Hello, my name is Olivine. I'm a priest of the God of Klein, and I enjoy helping others in my free time. I'm also a healer, so if you ever find yourself in need, please don't hesitate to seek me out for assistance or conversation or both.
I like to think myself quite easy to get along with, and I'm happy to make friends and acquaintances. I've been told I can be a little too optimistic sometimes, but I can't really help it. Ah, and I've been working on myself of late to become more self-confident, with the help of others around me.
For the moment, I'm just looking to make connections. If I can, I'd also like to find something to do with myself—I have experience with several creative endeavours.
I may not be able to offer much now, but I hope to become more helpful in the future. Please bear with me in the interim.
As I mentioned before, I'm a healer and a priest. I also know a fair bit of magic, at least how it works in my own world. On top of that, I enjoy painting and writing.
I have a penchant for trying new things, even when they may seem strange. I'm quite... resilient, when it comes to that.
Oh, I don't know. I like a lot of fantasy books, especially ones with intrigue and romance in them, as well as tomes and history books. I also quite enjoy church music, though... I suppose I just like music in general. Things that are pleasant to listen to and soothe the heart.
I haven't gotten a chance to experience much in the way of food, personally. I do love home-cooked meals and fresh breads, things that are flavourful and comforting.
Well... I think my ideal partner would be someone strong-willed, confident, and warm-hearted. Someone kind and understanding, who can accept me as I am.
Mm... and it wouldn't hurt if he was someone playful and a bit rough. I like it when I'm taken by surprise, in all senses of the word, by someone I trust. Of course... it's also best if they can handle a little playfulness in return.

[Good luck figuring that one out, Kleken. There are definitely no shortage of darker aspects to Olivine, but they really play in concert with his softness...]
I'm glad you think so... I'm thoroughly enjoying our conversation too. It's taken me some time to really figure out how to just have conversations like this, I have to admit. But it's relaxing.
no subject
[ He will find them one way or another, his quiet and curious sense of determination has decided right now for all the wrong reasons. He may not know what answers he'll find, nor how surprised he'll be to find them, but that's a mystery he looks forward to unraveling with future conversations. If he gets to have them, anyway, and doesn't get dragged back into the abyss. ]
Oh? I'm quite surprised to hear that, you seem the natural conversationalist. It's simply a matter of speaking your mind in the end, isn't it?
no subject
[quite simply spoken. He does look a little sheepish as Kleken continues, though.]
Well, as a priest, I often find myself listening more than having what some would consider a normal conversation. But—I think you're correct, yes. Having been here for some six months has done wonders for my ability to do just that, hehe. Sometimes I just find myself surprised by simple things, since my upbringing was a bit strict.
["a bit" may or may not be the understatement of the century.]
no subject
[ Interesting, to think that Olivine might normally be even more reserved than he is now. Even the alcohol and the effects layered onto it have barely loosened the man, from Kleken's point of view, so to imagine what he might be like without the six months of relaxing himself... ]
[ Well, he's rather glad to be able to meet this Olivine with his careful secrets and endlessly warming way to him that unfortunately draws the conman in. ]
What sort of things have you been able to indulge in that you hadn't before, if you don't mind my asking?
no subject
[it's a lot easier to explore himself when he doesn't have to worry about keeping an altar regulated... and when sex is not only encouraged but basically required.]
Ah— [what sort of things, huh? based on the way his cheeks tinge, it might be obvious enough.] w-well, most of it is more... intimate than not, of course. As a priest, there were many limitations because of my position.
[his actual secrets are indeed quite a distance from the parts of himself he's been able to nurture here. the weight of expectations and a practically divine upbringing definitely gave him some complexes both known and not.]
Just having free time is a bit new for me too though—so I've spent a lot of time getting to talk with people or exploring the nature areas, taking notes and the like.
[yeah, surprise, he's a nerd.]
no subject
[ Though Kleken's knowledge of priests and their restrictions is quite limited (or more accurately, close to nonexistent), he does see sex as something rather opposite to the imagery of holiness he's built in his mind. That Olivine was able to freely interact with such aspects of the hotel, and talk about them without any sort of self-judging or righteous shame, was a rather new perspective. ]
[ Kleken has a very skewed imagery of the church. ]
Taking notes about the plant life, perhaps?
[ He is going to guess this has something to do with herbology to help others- ]
no subject
[no, Kleken is right about the church and holiness... no matter what their "frugal" formal robes suggest. And interacting with sex as a whole without shame? That's also a fairly new phenomenon.]
Mm, flora and fauna both, yes. I'm not as good as an apothecary, but it's useful knowing which plants produce which effects, and which are even safe to ingest. Though... as you might have guessed, the number of them that have some sort of aphrodisiac qualities is unusually high. I've been thinking about collecting some to see how they interact and can be counteracted...
[yeah, it can be used to help others, but surprise: the foremost reason is just because he's a fucking nerd.]
no subject
[ Kleken's not unfamiliar with people who are passionate about a chosen subject or another, and sometimes he's found it quite interesting to take the time and listen to their passionate ramblings no matter what the topic. That might be because he's more interested in seeing someone speak with such enthusiasm about something rather than the topic itself, but they didn't need to know he only absorbed as much as his tentacles were listening and could convey back to him. ]
[ This particular topic though, he could quite quickly see the valuable use for. ]
Like an antidote of sorts?
no subject
[he's definitely not being vague for any particular reason. of course not. despite that vaguery though, he seems quite enthusiastic on this topic.]
no subject
[ As a connoisseur of vague speaking, such delicacy is right in his wheelhouse. And given how Olivine is taking the care to delicately sidestep around the meat of the topic, it would only be polite of Kleken to reciprocate. ]
Oh? What sort of options are those?
[ Spoilers, he is not being very polite in this moment and it's entirely because he's curious about why Olivine would need to be vague about something. ]
no subject
[It's fine, he can still hide the embarrassing part with a biology(?) lesson. Maybe one day Kleken will hear about Olivine's exploits with suction pumps, but today is not that day.
Probably.]
In those cases, the most common antidotes are to counteract the effects with a balancing of opposing essence. At their most extreme, it's also possible to release corrupted essence by puncturing the skin and allowing it to drain. And... in general, sharing essence from someone else can be used to easily regulate your own.
no subject
[ Also Olivine are you sure your world is not just another country within this world or something because arousal plants sound suspiciously like something he'd run into here. ]
[ The impromptu biology lesson might have normally gone in one ear and out the other, but there's something about this one that feels oddly relevant, even though Olivine appears to be speaking about another place entirely. There's just a few too many points of interest to simply dismiss it... ]
Oh? How does one go about sharing that then?
[ Because of course he would focus on this part of things. ]
no subject
And no, he's not sure... he mostly only knows one country and not howdy do we have very little information on any others. It's an earth boy isekai, don't worry about it.......]
It's a little situational... if it's minor, simple skin to skin contact will let you infuse a little bit of essence. But more than that, it's most prominent in bodily fluids. Thereby an exchange of such is the most efficient method of regulation.
[well. Second most efficient, after the needle thing. Most efficient for non-emergency situations.]
no subject
I see.
[ He does not see, what the fuc- ]
Then if I should ever become afflicted in such a manner, I'll certainly come find you to see whether such treatment holds true here as well.
no subject
Ah—you shouldn't need to worry about that. The people I've met who were brought here do have something like essence—I can feel it in you, too—but it's fundamentally different, as well. Contact with others has been enough to regulate my own essence, but I haven't seen anything happen to others because of it, thankfully.
[things sure have happened, but it's not the same as essence corruption or anything.]
no subject
[ But fluids aside, the information about essence is truly interesting. It reminds me of how he still has access to some of his abilities, can still feel an odd trace of Luminatics in the air even in this foreign world. Odd, but useful for him specifically, so he's never thought to truly question it. ]
[ He may question it a bit more now. ]
That is relieving to know then. I certainly do feel reassured, at least.
no subject
Olivine is too much of a nerd not to think deeply on how essence works, especially here where... well, where fewer people have it, precisely. Not that the average human in Klein had all that much—but it's still different.
Anyway, he smiles warmly in response to that.]
If anything does happen, though, please let me know. As a priest and a healer, I want to do everything in my power to help.
[did he say something like that already? Maybe. But it's easy to just fall into this level of small talk now at least, drink effects mellowing out as they do.]
no subject
[ Kleken will latch onto any healer offering their services with all the force of superglue, because it did always serve useful to keep an associated healer in one's back pocket. Especially when that certain one was a frail support class with the impulse control of a toddler and the annoyance ability of a wet sock. ]
[ Reaching to take Olivine's hand lightly into his own, he lifts it to press a polite kiss there that only lingers a bit as he considers the enigma of a priest in front of him... A positive experience, overall. And a deep itch to dig for more, but pressing his luck this early would be ill-advised. ]
You have my sincerest gratitude for the offer.
no subject
that said, he does blush softly at the polite kiss to his hand, head bowing softly in gracious thanks. the alcohol is... well, slowly wearing off, thanks to time and the other drinks both. comfortable for an easy meeting without being too awkward, he thinks.]
Please, think nothing of it. It's my pleasure to help. And thank you, for that matter—for the drinks and conversation. I've thoroughly enjoyed myself, hehe.
no subject
[ He lets Olivine's hand slide out of his own, drawing away to give the man his personal space back. The almost drowsy clinginess that had settled over the other man is fading, he can tell that much, which means it best for him to slip away before Olivine figures out that his earlier behavior had been influenced in ways Kleken had a had in. ]
We'll have to do this again then in the future.
[ A light promise, but Kleken's rather sure he won't be seeing the other man for a few months, once the labyrinth reclaims him... ]
