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.

[their notes are no doubt different—though it's probably a bit hard to tell, since Olivine's native script is very... not recognisable to anyone who uses normal human-esque scripts.
at least the "ends badly" part probably isn't relating to him, given his personality and warmth. probably.]
Mm, it does seem like it could be a protagonist, yes... but I think it's possible to view a side-character the same way, as well. Overall, there isn't much difference between the two, other than the story's focus. So perhaps a story where there isn't focus on any specific character, and instead on the world they live in, with moments of focus?
my packing up and moving era is almost over... thank you for your patience.......
[ Midnight claps his hands together, then stretches, peering at his wrist for the time. ]
We'll have to come up with a proper bunch of characters, then... The sort of people whose stories fit together, challenge one another. But are you thirsty? It really is unusual of me to neglect bringing a drink of some sort... I suppose the prospect of this venture caught my faculties rather well.
[ He has a solution for this, actually — he's been here enough times to know which side rooms in this place have water stations — but he shakes his head regardless. He didn't even bring a drop of champagne... He's usually quite good about remembering to bring gifts to a first meeting, even if they aren't necessarily material. ]
gentle pats... I wish you all the luck and give all the strength I can to get through this
[a pause then, his smile a little sheepish. he hadn't even considered it, truthfully, before that moment.]
... it seems all the fuss took my mind off of it, but I am a little thirsty. Normally I'm much more aware of it myself. Shall we break to find something to drink?
thank you... also that hair is so cute wtf
[ Midnight gets up, pulls the wrinkles out of his clothing, and extends a hand to Olivine to help him up, a smile on his face. ]
There's a rest area nearby with water, but if you like, we can also take a walk to Early Bird Hall for heavier libations. I don't know about you, but I could use the walk.
[ They were talking for quite some time, after all. Midnight, for all that he likes curling up with a book, isn't the type to stay still for long. ]
IT IS I'm so mad, the event was so good for him
I don't usually imbibe much, but I don't mind the idea. And a walk would be wonderful.
[in contrast, the priest can absolutely stay still for ages when he's learning or writing, but he does like being active in turn. the more they can do, the better. closing his notebook, Olivine stows the pen against its cover and moves to join the taller man, offering a warm smile as he does.]
🙏 blessed...
You write for children generally, don't you? I'd imagine their demands aren't nearly as complex as what we've been discussing so far. We may need more than a few meetings to solidify these ideas into writing. I can't say I'm not looking forward to the prospect, though.
[ A grin. This is fun, and it feels lovely and daring to occupy their time with something that isn't the main directive. ]
no subject
[giving a soft giggle as they walk, Olivine stretches his arms in turn, head tilting to look up at the taller man.]
I don't think there's a reason to limit ourselves to the library, either—in fact, it might be easier to do the work somewhere we don't need to worry about our volume so much.
[creative discussions are best done over food and drink, right? well, food in at least one man's case. the atmosphere is the important part.]
no subject
[ Midnight nods. Children don't tend to think in terms of what's realistic or easy, after all. He rather admires them for that. ]
You've a point... Hm. That leaves some sort of cafe or one of our rooms, I think. Are you hungry as well? I've some champagne in my room, but no food to speak of, unfortunately.
[ Midnight's appetite is... complicated, but he doesn't mind sitting around while another person eats. He's always enjoyed being surrounded by people, even if it's just to take in the atmosphere. ]
no subject
[his head inclines forward as Midnight continues, humming thoughtfully in consideration.]
I'm not particularly hungry, no—I ate not too long before coming here. Either option is comfortable for me, though I must admit I'm not much of a drinker. I'll probably have a glass and then water is fine...
[although he can certainly have more, he's just being a little conservative. having an enjoyable time around someone else is worth more than overestimating himself, or so he thinks.]
no subject
[ Which are both very unusual lines for a host... But it's not as though many people here know that. Midnight grins, though, begins to direct them both to the elevators. ]
My, time flies, though... I'm glad you've had something to eat, at least. Wouldn't want you falling over mid-session, even if we were both having a lovely time. You were enjoying yourself, though... I could tell.
[ And Midnight positively glows when he says that. He likes it when people are happy around him. Happiness is its own reward, as far as he's concerned. ]
no subject
[Olivine smiles at that grin in turn, following Midnight out of the library and off to the elevators, glancing over when he speaks again.]
Mm, it wouldn't have been so bad... I've gone a fair amount of time without eating. But I prefer not to unless it's necessary, of course... and I was, yes. You as well, as far as I could see. I haven't had such an involved conversation with someone in a while, hehe.
[they're both similar in that, too. company and happiness run hand in hand in some measures, deeply rooted and warm to feel.]
no subject
[ Midnight looks over, measuring up the parts Olivine has chosen to show about himself, before continuing on to the elevators, pressing the button on its panel. ]
I do hope there will be many more reasons for you to partake of what's around us, rather than go without. I don't like the idea of anyone in such a place of plenty having to struggle for basic needs.
[ There is, of course, the matter of sex being the main way to earn any kind of revenue here, and the problems inherent to that... But really, Midnight means to say that he simply hopes that this place is much better for Olivine, no matter the reason why he didn't have chances to eat. ]
no subject
[Olivine's laugh is warm and apologetic, head shaking.]
Back in Klein, there were times where I would forget, because my duties were at the fore of my mind. It was never terribly intentional, [except that one time, and he almost died then, so he's pretending it doesn't exist thanks!!!] just sort of happened.
[as cheerful as he is when talking about it, the implications and the faint thread of guilt are always there under the surface.]
no subject
Never terribly intentional, huh. Midnight looks at Olivine askance, thinks of his own behavior on the landship. Thinks of his own behavior here, really. When was the last time he'd had a proper meal, anyway...? ]
I often wonder what having that sort of passion for one's duties is like. It's something to admire... So long as you weren't giving your loved ones too much grief, that is.
[ Projecting? No. Never. Of course not. ]
no subject
[he laughs at that, hand resting on his chest as the elevator comes to a stop. once, it would cover up so much pain and suffering, but now... well, he doesn't hate what he is anymore, after all.
if he knew how Midnight had been existing, he'd no doubt have concerns, no matter how... unusual his appetite might be.]
no subject
[ Midnight smiles. They finally make it to the elevators; Midnight presses the button to summon one, looks over at Olivine. ]
Although it doesn't occur to me to think of limitations with regard to you, darling. You seem the sort to be able to do anything you put your mind to.
no subject
Mm, I definitely don't want to disappoint the people I care for... or make them worry too much. What we do is dangerous enough already.
[The compliment brings a soft pink flush to Olivine's cheeks, head ducking shyly.]
There are plenty of things I'm quite incapable of... but I do find that my determination does get me through most of what I try, at least passably. As a child of the church, after all, my life has always been filled with opportunity.
no subject
Still, he doesn't seem to be overtly upset, so Midnight is content to lead the way into the elevator and hit the button for his own room with the other 6 ranks. ]
Opportunity... for danger? You don't seem the sort to seek it, if I may say so.
[ Then again, most of the iconography for angels in Midnight's own world has the vast majority of them carrying guns, so the idea is unsurprising, at least. ]
no subject
And I don't shy away from it, if I'm honest—one must experience something to understand how to handle it, don't you think? People are relying on me, so I want to be able to be strong enough to do anything I must.
no subject
[ He talked about a clan, right? And the presence of children means that, at some point, adults might have been around... Although being a ward of a church is a concept that does bridge universes. ]
no subject
[He's rarely alone, in many ways. A little chuckle escapes him then.]
As for my other duties, the ones with the other clan members and the grand sorcerer, we all work together when we can. We each live in our own lands and have our responsibilities, so those also matter, but... taking care of the elemental altars is too big a job for just one or two people, to say the least.
no subject
[ Midnight waits for the door to open to stop his pondering and just ask the question. ]
Forgive me, but I do wonder what leads one to take on such a position of responsibility... I've lived much of my life making decisions that mostly benefit myself, so when it comes to a position of teaching, or a position of care, I have no real context. Was it a calling for you? A choice?
no subject
The clan members... that, I was born into. [His hand rests over the small gemstone at his abdomen, absently.] This mark connects me to the grand sorcerer and to the other clan members, a representation of the contract to protect our world. It... as I understand, I was born this way because the previous contract holder died before the contract was fulfilled. It is what allows me to help regulate the elemental altars in Klein.
no subject
It seems as though your role in your world is rather vital... I do hope your clan can manage well while we try and find a way for you to return to your rightful place.
no subject
... I do hope they're all doing well though, in whatever capacity everything is going on.
[Olivine glances off absently as he speaks, expression thoughtful as they approach Midnight's suite.]
