It may not sound reasonable, but I think it's good to have goals. Even if they can't make it happen, they'll always be trying to make things better, won't they?
But when you're in charge, you have to make the tough calls. If you're so focused on finding a way for no one to get hurt, but your only options are one person gets hurt or some other person gets hurt, and you waste all your time looking for some third way, then both of them are gonna get hurt because you waited too long to do something about it. It's fine if they have their own ideals, but when they won't take action because any of their options go against their ideals? That's a problem. That's not something you want to see in a leader.
[ good thing he never wanted to be in charge...? ]
But if I didn't want to make a third option, I wouldn't be here in the first place. So... I hope that when you're the head god, you won't automatically go for the immediate, best choice when it comes to you.
Oh, I will. I just won't let myself hesitate for so long agonizing over it that other people pay the price. It's one thing if I can fix it afterwards, but if it will be permanent? No way.

I... guess that's true.

I understand. Let me know when you want to practice, or if you need anything else, okay?
no subject
I will.
[and then
after a long, awkward pause, during which he might get to the door before Ambition speaks up again]
