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.

That... is sort of part and parcel to being a priest, yes. More specifically, my belief centers around the God of Klein... but what's bothering you?
no subject
Not really bothering me, curious, I guess. ( he pauses for a moment, then another, then possibly one more. who knew that fuck casino would make him wonder about stuff beyond the realm of believable? he sure didn't. ) Is yours some— random guy who did random shit and became a god?
no subject
I... [a pause, because he's really trying to unravel all of this.] Not according to our literature, exactly? At least, I suppose, depending on what you mean by "random." The God of Klein created the five territories, and left His sons to help stabilise the world. It was those sons who left the elemental altars... why do you ask?
[he did talk with someone who talked about ascending to something like a God, but it was so brief and frankly confusing that he really doesn't know. besides, as far as he can tell, that guy isn't here...]
no subject
this was probably a mistake. he's not really equipped to have this kind of conversation and doesn't know why he even thought this was even remotely a good idea. ( the answer is he didn't think, he just acted, as per usual. )
why does he ask??? )
I don't know. ( another pause ) I don't believe in any god or gods or whatever. But my— ( ...what does he even call feng xin? are they friends? they talk every day... fuck buddies? acquaintances??? and yet, somehow — after a brief, yet noticeable pause — zoro still winds up with an insulting: ) neighbor healed an injury and told me he was a god and that anyone can be.
( which is NOT QUITE AT ALL what feng xin said, but that's how zoro understood it. he's spreading fake news. )
no subject
not. nearly enough information. not even close!!! he's existed around plenty of people who get their information all jumbled up though, on top of his general patience, so at least he's not like... annoyed, really. just really fucking confused.]
Well... being able to heal isn't exclusive to Gods, at least. I can't speak for Gods in other worlds, since the only one I have experience with is my own, so I wouldn't be able to definitively say that what he said is wrong, in the context of where he came from. [.....] I still feel like I'm missing something, though. Surely, someone just saying that wouldn't prompt this deep of thought?
[like, okay. maybe for Olivine it might, because he's an idiot who has to run down every curiosity, but... Zoro said it himself. he doesn't even believe in gods.]
no subject
see, he's never thought about things before. here? he's got fuck all to do ( besides fuck, of course ) and he has more idle time than he's ever had in his life. the fact that he's thinking about anything at all is annoying him more than it is anyone else. if he had the wherewithal to feel any kind of shame, he would. )
I don't know what's exclusive to gods or not, all I know is I watched him do it and the wounds on my chest don't even look fresh anymore. Never seen anything like it. ( he leaves the part out where this was a seriously grave injury and he could've just fuckin died. but, olivine has seen it by now; anyone with eyes can tell he was flirting with the grim reaper getting that injury. ) He said that anyone could be one, they were normal people before— ( ascending ) graduating.
no subject
(he would have a lot to say about the subject of Gods and their limitations, considering the entire line of shit that's going on back on Klein, but that's neither here nor there.)]
... It's something I've seen rarely, but—where we come from is different, after all. [the followup does clarify some things, though really? the idea of it feels a little bit like their learning to use essence magic. surely more nuanced, but... (it also occurs to him to question if he should have asked more fervidly about them before, even though it'd probably have taken a little extra effort for someone like himself. healing is his forte, after all.)]
But... I don't see a particular reason to refute his assertions, if that's what you mean. Godhood really does seem to vary from person to person—I can't imagine just... becoming one, myself. That isn't how it works in Klein.
[... in all this, he's!! still not sure why Zoro is asking this, especially at this hour of the night!!]
no subject
well, for zoro it is. probably not for olivine or anyone else zoro might speak with about deeper topics.
he rubs his chin, thinking about this; idly thinking he probably needs a lil shave so the rasping against his finger is probably heard for a moment. he doesn't feel like he knows anything more than he did, except that things work differently — which makes sense, but also at the same time just makes him wonder why, which is also annoying him a lot.
he didn't drink enough for this conversation. )
So, yours are just some all powerful beings that were always there? That's what I've heard people say back home. ( a pause; that's all more in line with what he'd always thought, or heard, rather. not any of this if u do enough good deeds u can become a god. that's too wild to wrap his head around. ) Don't think he's lying to me or anything, but seemed pretty weird.
( and yet, another pause, a sigh, then, ) Figured you'd know more since you're, y'know... into that stuff.
no subject
... ah? [hang on a second. What do you even mean—] because I'm into... what stuff, exactly? I've read all I can find on God and His actions in Klein, but...
[what du hell, Zoro.]
no subject
or just forget the whole thing and pretend feng xin never mentioned being a god and then this conversation with olivine trying to articulate the questions he's still not clearly asking. )
God stuff. ( he says by means of an answer to "what stuff." duh. ) You're a priest so, I mean, I'd assume you were into— ( a pause ) Uh, godly stuff.
no subject
... Zoro... [this is silly. Totally unreasonable. Zoro asks things in the weirdest way on a good day.] are you... struggling because you're interested in him and he's also claiming to be something you don't normally believe in?
[are you literally just having a crisis because "fuck God" has become a literal possibility, Zoro.]
no subject
( not that he hates feng xin or anything, and he likes hanging around with him. but, it's not like that. it's just... kind of a lot for him to take in and it's bothering him because zoro is the sort to see things in black or white, he likes things to make sense.
learning that he's friends with a god is just.
weird. and it's annoying him that he can't explain anything the way he wants to.
he groans, his words slightly muffled — quieter, as he's speaking more to himself — as he drags a hand down his face, )
Just doesn't make any fucking sense.
( he exhales, then shifts tracks pretty quickly, )
Anyway, thanks ( ??? ) for the insight.
no subject
... he's still a person, isn't he? God or not. But... perhaps it's him you should be speaking to about this, rather than me.
[a little hum, though he doesn't think he's really offered him much in this case.]
You're welcome. Are you sure you don't want some company? I'm not doing anything, I could come sit with you. No need to talk or anything, of course.
[he doesn't know if it'll suit Zoro, but like. he doesn't like to be alone when he's got big thoughts going on, so!!]
no subject
he exhales a long breath, his hand drags down his face. )
No, it's late. Don't worry about it. ( he pauses for a moment, ) I'll treat for a drink sometime.
no subject
Mm, if you'd like. I don't drink much, but I'll be glad for the company. [a soft sigh, maybe a little exasperated.] try to get some rest and not worry too much.
no subject
Yeah, you too. Won't call so late next time.
