What are you scared of?

The park should be fine.

im scared youll take it or something

[Mmrrfff... this curse is really a bother. Still, the possible benefit of this guy being able to create souls far outweighs the risk. He did say it wouldn't be invasive or unsafe, after all, and no one can lie right now. He'll just awkwardly click off the SFC and make his way to the entrance of the park to meet up with the illustrious Doctor Stein.]

I would never take an innocent soul.

[And here comes a gray-haired man with a screw through his head.

A wave.]

Yo. 'sup?

Um. Hi. I was just waiting for you.

[Yup. He's obviously nervous too.]

Nice to meet you in person.

[Remember when Stein said looking at a soul wasn't invasive? Well... he didn't lie, but he has a far different definition of "invasive" than most people.

It's a creepy, dark sort of feeling, like having someone stare directly at your soul. Most people would describe it as "invasive".]

[Stein's gaze makes Sola shudder a bit, more than just the sensation of his skin crawling; it feels like it's crawling from the inside. Sola's soul, though, looks like any other created by deity to be woven into the fabric of creation. The only real difference is that it's brand spanking new. This is its first trip through the cycle of reincarnation and there's nothing that's been done to it yet to tarnish or undermine its brilliance.]

W-what are you doing? That feels really weird...

I'm just looking. You have a very interesting soul.

U-umm... interesting how?

[You are seriously creepifying in person.]

You're an angry person with a strong desire to do good. A confused person with a clean soul.

Angry...?

[He's not terribly in touch with his inner self but if he thinks about it there really is a lot to be angry about. It's not fair how he feels stuck in a mind that's too small for a body that's too awkward. A lot of things aren't fair and a lot of things make that anger spark at a moment's notice. He doesn't even know when it'll happen, it just does.

Maybe it's the confusion that makes him angry.]

...you can tell that just by looking?

And more, but that's enough for an overview. I'd like to run some tests on your soul, if you're willing to participate.

[And there's that defensive face again.]

What kind of tests?

Nothing that should permanently harm you. [Way to be reassuring.]

You have to promise it won't hurt or mess up my soul or anything!

[He will seriously kill you if anything happens, man. Though, with this curse they have to tell the truth, so he knows Stein's response will be sincere at least, whatever it is.]

I can't promise that.

Then no you can't!

[He wants to help his friends, but if anything happened to his soul...

Sola clutches a hand to his chest, as if to protect it. No, no he can't.]

Relax.

I'm not going to attack you and take your soul.

Well.. what are you going to do?

[He remains suspicious, but he hasn't left just yet...]

I'm not sure now. There's not much I can do.

Well then why do you want to run tests if you don't know what tests to do?

[Is that how science works? Just do stuff until something happens?]

[The mun is a scientist and can say that that is exactly how science works.]

You've limited my options somewhat.

Well what would you want to do if I let you?

[Maybe if it doesn't sound so bad...]

Oh, I could explain but it would be a bit too technical for you.

Explain it anyway. If you don't it sounds like you're hiding stuff.

[He's starting to wonder if Stein maybe isn't effected by the curse at all. It still sounds like he's hiding a lot of stuff somehow. Maybe he's just better at that double talk thing some people do.]
