That and people who, like, feed into her worst traits. It's hard for her to be nice when she gets encouragement from other people when she's mean, you know?
You gods aren't really any different to us—just a couple extra tricks, right? So, of course you guys want friends, not weird mindless sheep followers! Being a leader means looking out for everyone—but it can get really lonely, if you don't look out for yourself, too. So... I don't think it's so bad, being a little selfish sometimes.

I mean, you've met her, haven't you?
no subject
I mean, sure, she's a little bit of a stuck-up princess type, but...
[he softens, and smiles.]
Her heart's in the right place—and I really think she's trying her best.
no subject
With people like you around, I guess she actually stands a chance of getting better. She doesn't exactly surround herself with the best influences.
no subject
[was he describing himself, or Ambition?]
It... seems like she just needs a friend. I don't think she minds being called out that much, as long as you're nice or funny about it.

no subject
[She fit the bill, for sure.]
Still, that doesn't make her a bad person. It's more like... she's lonely, isn't it? Maybe she just needs more friends. Real friends.
no subject
[and, like, he said it, so it has to be true]
You want to be her friend?

...I really don't know a lot about leadership stuff, though. This is all just what I think, so... don't take it too seriously, okay?

...Do all of you really want to lead that badly? Or are some of you just doing it because you don't like the other plans?

[it's not a question, it's a statement. Sincerity is... being sincere.]
And if someone else wins, you still couldn't be convinced otherwise?
