Oh come let us worship [o, prayer]

malphas heard the commotion and padded over, crimson eyes narrowed. what was going on? he spotted the bible and rolled his eyes. then again, malphas himself wasn't an atheist- he surely believed in gods, obviously, he just hated them. malphas could understand wanting to give your life to a god you couldn't see and having faith that there was life after death. that was all religion was, wasn't it? a fairytale made to comfort the weak.

then of course vigenere started complaining. vigenere was a demon? fuck. malphas grinned, finding an opportunity to be an asshole. "hey, zima... if you hand me the bible i'll beat him with it, see if he melts," he joked, then turned to vigenere. "you know what's good about tanglewood? freedom of religion, bitch. if he wants to believe in his fairytales let him, it's not doing you any harm." he grinned. "he wasn't even near you, you just came over to bitch. get over it."
