I need you to bless something
Can you bless something
Do you need holy water
How do you actually make holy water

yes I can bless something
but you know that's not the same as a Blessing right
it's not magic

i just need it to prevent it from coming alive at night and jumping me

[Unfortunately. Your tall, intimidating, gruff brother is sort-of a weenie.]

[oh he's cute]

that I can definitely do! should I come over

Yes. Please. I can't let it out of Forge what if it discovers the entire ship. Just yell when you're here.

I'm on my way!

[and in fact pretty soon after she'll be knocking on forge's door. not yelling because wow who goes and yells at a door]

[It immediately opens to Yingxing, who already looks vaguely haunted.]

Do you have your. Tools. Holy tools.

Just show me what needs to be blessed, and I'll handle the rest.

[He leads her inside. Looks both ways before crossing to the kitchen, before he opens his jacket to reveal

The Object.
Stuffed in an inner pocket. It's about the size of his hand.]

[GASP!]

It's cute...!

It's a curio of horrible dark energy!

It's a little plush doggie, Yingxing. You're scared of it?

Why would I be scared of a toy?

[Says the man scared of a toy. He gingerly fishes it out and. Holds it out to her in the palm of his hand.]

I really don't know.

[but okay she'll take the toy and hold it in both hands and softly whisper a prayer over it]

[Yingxing hovers around her, like he's worried it will explode.]

You sure this will work?

Yes, brother. I'm sure God will protect you and make sure this plushie does you no harm.

[He looks so pathetically grateful for one (1) moment before he tries to put her in a headlock.]

[WORTH IT even though she's now headlocked]

Wah-!

I know what you're thinking!

That I'm so glad I get to help my beloved brother?
