There's a boy in my class. I've been his best friend for ages, since we were little kids - he's a famous model, and he absolutely adores me.

[symphonise]

[

Nonon nods. ]

He sounds great.

[ She sounds like she totally believes Ambition. Totally. ]

What about people here? Outside of Cunning and Disorder, I mean?

[divus]

...

Piety isn't so bad.

[symphonise]

Oh, I heard about your date. Did you have fun with him?

[divus]

It's not like I had a terrible time.

[yes. she had fun.]

[symphonise]

You had a good time.

[ She knows tsun when she hears it. ]

What about non-gods? Who are your favorites here?

[divus]

Well, I guess--

[wait.]

Hold on, I'm not telling you who my followers are!

[symphonise]

[ She laughs. ]

If you just gave me names, would I have known who they were? Maybe you don't even like your followers all that much.

[divus]

If I didn't like them they wouldn't be my followers anymore.

[see:

her totally disowning rachel publicly in that one trial]

[symphonise]

[ That was hilarious, but she won't say that out loud. ]

Then, is there anyone you want to become your follower?

[divus]

Yes, but I can't name them. That'd be confirming they're not mine right now, and we're not supposed to help you figure out alignments.

[symphonise]

[ Nonon's done painting Ambition's nails, and once she's satisfied by her work, she nods and lets go. ]

And what kind of help do you like to give? I know you give hints, but why is that your thing?

[divus]

[she pulls her hands back and examines the paint job. hmm. not bad. she's not complaining about it, so nonon must have done a good job]

Because it's stupid that there are so many things we can't tell you. We're trusting you guys with a decision about who gets to be in charge of our world, but we have to keep secrets from you? It's ridiculous, utterly ridiculous. I've always been good at getting what I want - it's in my name - so even though we're all bound, I'm still able to give out hints.

[that and she just

never learned how to shut the fuck up]

[symphonise]

[ Every time a god tells her how much they think the own system they set up is stupid, Nonon dies a little more inside. ]

Yeah, it really is stupid, isn't it? It really makes me wonder. Would you be open with everyone if you were allowed? Or just your followers?

[divus]

My followers would get first dibs on anything I know because they're my followers, duh. But I wouldn't just withhold information from anyone else who asked unless they were a total jerk.
