Dead Wishes (Visual Novel)
blairlex for Festus
Festus is a priest (ex-priest) who maintains a church in an impoverished part of town. He is friendly and always willing to lend a hand, even when he is tired from working. He takes pity on the MC and gives them a room in the church when MC is evicted. Festus has his own idiosyncrasies, and was never unable to maintain his vow of chastity, so despite his willingness to help others, he isn't a very good priest in the formal sense. Festus uses humor and pranks to keep the conversation lighthearted, almost to the point where one might worry about his inner thoughts.
Festus has a medium-medium high voice.
"Hey, if you're going to bolt again, can you give me some warning? I haven't gone out for a run in a long time. You're making me feel out of shape."
"Anise might need some help - maybe you should ask her! Be careful, though. She bites."
[more somber] "People want to worry over what they’ve done wrong, who they’ve hurt, and why their lives aren’t just what they want. Sometimes all they need is a little introspection."
