Absolutely! I was hoping you'd ask--because I think you'll appreciate what I have to say.
[He crosses his legs, getting comfortable.]
I've got a vision of a world that's free of poverty and all the other troubles that come with it: disease, famine, discontent, war, homelessness, starvation...you name it, gone.
A utopia, huh? I didn't really think about it that way.
[He rubs his golden chin.]
I figure it'll still have its own share of hardships, everything has to, yeah? Nothing's perfect. But just not the sort of hardships that should be easily prevented. Nobody should have to worry about food in their bellies or a place to sleep, you know?
But, see, that's what the others are for! My job is the vision, and I've got the juice to shape the world to be plentiful. Justice can regulate resources, and everyone has their own talents they can use to make sure there's enough to go around. Team effort, yeah?
I really, really don't like being around violence. What we really should be doing, if you want my opinion, instead of bending around to all these rules and intrigue, is showing our stuff. You know, giving you all real first-hand seats to the kind of leadership we can provide!
It's a good start, sure, but what happens to the ones of us that started off strong? We've been bleeding followers week by week, so when the time comes around to host, I have a feeling that everyone will have already properly made up their mind.
[He sighs.]
In a way, sure, it can't be helped. I mean, it's fair to have the lower counted ones go first--but the only reason we got so many followers from the start was based on nothing to go off of but our names, you know?
... Yes. It is pretty unfair to everyone who has to wait.
I wonder if there was ever a really "fair" way to decide something like this, though... I mean, we could do better than what we have, but... It's all just people's different opinions, and we're all outsiders to what you're really making.
That means you'll have forever to work on it together. To fix it and keep making it better and better. Whatever you make, you can improve on in the future.

So long as you're getting creative, how could I possibly say no?

[ Ray said he was picky! but she thinks better of actually saying that out loud! so....... quick change the subject! ]
Um, anyway... S-since we're here, can you tell me a little about the world you'd like to make?

I just wonder if it's... Possible. Even if it's created that way... If it could stay so fair to everyone.

Well... It's not as good as it could be, but I think getting to meet you each week and visit the places you make is a good start.
