Thank you. [Beauty leans back in their seat.] ...Justice isn't the only one who wants a peaceful world. Is that impression you've received from others?
From some of them. [It's not necessarily given with impatience, more confusion:] Your point? Wait-- [A bit of curious recognition blooms over his face, and his arms lower slowly.]
What happens if two or more of you tie with followers when time is up?
[What a fascinating question! Beauty pauses, also surprised, but there's an answer.]
If there's a tie...the game's extended by a week, but only the tied gods are playing during that time. From there, it's up to the players to choose who they'll follow. The tally at the end of that week will determine the head of the pantheon.
Most likely that, yes. We were all new to the idea of being gods and having a pantheon that we assumed all of our ideas were better than everyone else's. It's been difficult getting all twelve of us to agree on anything.
Recently, and as for the why or if there were gods before us I really don't know. You can ask the others, but none of us really know. It just sort of happened once we accepted the offer.
[There's a light laugh though.] No one has called you stupid, Uchiiha-kun. Not amongst ourselves, anyway.
[Who knows what the participants are saying by now.]
No. At least not while we're like this. [While they have their powers and aren't vulnerable, they mean.] With time you'll receive answers, but I understand that this must be frustrating for you.
[It's not said unkindly, just sort of thinking it over.] You've been trying very hard within the means you've been given. Though the methods aren't the best and I believe there's much to be learned...your efforts should be recognized, at least.
And for good reason. You don't actually know me. [Shrug.] Likewise, I don't know you outside of what I can see for myself and what others have said about you. My opinion still stands.
Because despite how poorly all of your attempts have been, you haven't actually killed anyone yet and you're using your resources. I find that to be more impressive than brute strength.
[He frowns again, or maybe he just never stopped frowning at all. He doesn’t want to say the real reason. He doesn’t want to say it the way it should be said.]
I would if someone was trying to get in the way of a peaceful outcome.
[If someone hurt the few he cared about here. He’s an Uchiha, and their love is cursed by their hate. It would be a very bad time, and that is why he tries so very hard to make people hate him.]

I’ve asked the ones I’ve spoken to so far. There’s a few others left. Are you trying to change my mind?

I don't agree with the idea of co-ruling personally... but some are wondering why none of you co-rule a world with some of all of yourselves in it.

What happened before? You said you were new to being gods. When did it happen? Why? Were there gods before you?
I'm not stupid. I know even the "best" of you aren't giving us the whole story.

Spare me. [He knows. Everyone thinks he’s a moron. It’s FINE.] If we create new rules with the ability that allows us, can they affect you, too?

Don’t patronize me. [He knows he is going to get the “I wasn’t” schpiel.] Senri might trust you, but I don’t.

I’ll kill if I have to, but it needs to be worth my time.
