Hi. This is Sophia...not really speaking. Thinking? Projecting words into your unsuspecting eyes. I think? This is quite something.

I won't bother you much with my shock and awe about finding myself in a new place. I'm sure there's enough people experiencing the same things than me in your close vicinity. Help them, if you would. I'm sure they will appreciate it.

My reason to send this message is to offer my own help, in one way or another. Back in my world I was finally getting settled into what I had decided to call Dream Therapy. Basically, I can help you dwell into whatever issues you have and find positive, healthy ways to deal with them.

In your dreams. Weird, I know.

I've found that it's easier to visualize and deal with things one feel and think when you can make the issues literally show themselves. Ultimately it's all symbolic of course, but the learning one makes from it it's real indeed.

We can also just talk it out wide awake, I have some training in the more normal type of stuff.

Goodness, this has taken all too much space already. I'll just leave it at that. I don't really need payment of any sort, by the way. Just knowing I'm doing my part is enough.

Anyway, do let me know if you ever need something along those lines. Or if you just want to talk. I feel like I will have much free time for a while.

The first time, when he saved my life and gave me the ability to subsist without a living anchor, he did it partly because he felt he had to, that something in the very, very big scheme of things was moving him as a piece. So he was very curious.

Anything else I ask of him will come with a prize.

one you're not willing to pay.

( marc can't entirely relate — his relationship with khonshu has often been fraught. occasionally, khonshu has abandoned him — sometimes with clear reason, sometimes without; other times, they've been quote-unquote estranged more for marc's reasons than khonshu's, though marc has always agreed and accepted the price asked for khonshu's aid.

it has occurred to him that khonshu's silence now was less a quirk of this place and either punishment or penance for marc's actions after the age of khonshu. )

Not unless I really need to. Haven't found anything to make me feel like asking for divine intervention.

We'll see how it goes.

Whatever the case, I hope we have a chance to meet sometime soon, if only to know each other personally.

maybe the concept of prayer is ingrained in me more deeply than I thought.

( that is to say: marc has called upon khonshu, specifically, more times than he'd have ever thought he'd have turned to prayer before dying (the first time).

there's a lengthy delay between that message and the next one he sends. there's an easy, glib response to her message: horizon's there, nocwich is there, whichever is easier and more convenient for the two of them.

but the sentiment of wanting to meet isn't one that's thrown marc's way too often, not outside of being needed or wanted as moon knight or mr. knight, and even that's relatively few and far between, all depending on who's doing the asking.

more than that, though, he knows that stability, a support structure — any of it and all of it — is something that he needs. he likes to think (wants to think) that he's wholly capable by himself (frenchie's gone, marlene's gone — before reese and soldier and tigra, it was just him), but historically, that's never worked out that well for him.

eventually, then— )

that would be nice, sophia.

My maker didn't instil any religion on me. Most mages don't believe in anything they can't throw a hex at.

Sometimes we can't do good, or fine, we can do nice. It has to count for something.
