[Levity laughs, and it's rather... well, drunken might be one word for it. Things are fine now, apparently, and now everything is funny. Even cannibalism jokes(?).]
You've said before, but I couldn't taste anyway...
[That was a dream, but it's not really like Levity is in the state to remember what was real and what wasn't.]
Is... everything in there... from Lucifel? I can't just eat him, I barely know the man!
[He Would Prefer Not To. Levity's mood swings back to not being very enthused about all this.]
If this is your mind... can you make the hunger go away?
[Levity raises a hand to his stomach, looking miserable. He dislikes it, he dislikes the idea of having to eat people, but at the same time a part of him feels guilty for having the potential luxury to just... decline suffering from the same condition Absinthe has been dealing with.]
[Oh no he's soft!! :( Levity's face falls a little at the news that the Nice Absinthe has to stay here--and it is a little scary to hear that another part of him might want to hurt Levity, but then again that's... not entirely unexpected. He's been warned of as much, even back in the real world. He glances at the tools again - something to protect himself with... much like he'd said before, too, Levity doesn't have it in him to hurt others. Something to block blows then, maybe, incapacitate at worst... the crowbar seems to fit the description the best out of the pile. Or rather, it fits the description least badly.]
I see... but I still don't want to hurt you. But if you say so...
[He'll pick up the crowbar on his way out, but first things first. Leaning in to give Absinthe a kiss on the cheek - it doesn't help with the hunger, but he can push it aside for long enough right now.]
I'll try to come back, if you're still here. Maybe find some candles or something... you shouldn't just stay here in the dark.
[He starts to head off after picking up the crowbar, but then turns back again, hurriedly.]
Ah, if D.Va comes here before I see her--please tell her I'm fine. And... please don't hurt her, too. She was very worried already, and I don't want to see you two fight.
[He's at least aware both D.Va and Absinthe are a lot more... short-tempered than himself. Please play nice.]

Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
You should -- lest you completely lose control of yourself. I'd offer something of myself, but, well ... I doubt that would be very pleasant to taste.
Lucifel would certainly assist, however.
[ and it's fine! it's all metaphors! it's not like he's an actual cannibal. ]

Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
[ he's being helpful! offering alternatives! ]
In the end -- this isn't real, hmm? Just as you mentioned.

Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
[ which is true - - he's only part of Absinthe, in the same way the kitchen Lucifel is part of himself as well. ]
If you wish for a weapon or other tools, of course, you are free to take whatever you'd like.
Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
But I don't need them, do I? D.Va kept the saw because she thought this was a game and we might need to protect ourselves, but... you're here now.
[He takes a couple deep breaths, trying to think through the hunger.]
...Are you hungry, too? We could... go back. I don't know if I'll be able to eat anything, but maybe it will be easier now...
[What does Lucifel symbolize, anyway. Apart from uhhh Absinthe's need to eat people? Without hurting them? See, Absinthe is good actually!]
Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
[ he reaches up, touching the side of Levity's face, comforting. ]
I must stay here. But you are free to go.

Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
I will endeavor to do so. There's not many torches here, I'm afraid - - not my own choice, mind you.
And I will not harm her unless she gives reason for it.
Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
...If I meet her first, I'll ask her to be careful, too. I know you both enjoy this sort of thing much more than I do, but...
[He shakes his head, mostly exasperated, slightly fond.]
I'll see you later, Absinthe.
Re: KIDNAPPING TOWER
[ He waves, with a dip of his head.
Where to now? ]
