[divus]

The life stuff and helping you reach a goal you thought would be impossible to reach. That's what the new world would be.

[in_a_bottle]

I'm surprised you're not the one called Ambition, in that case.

[divus]

I suppose I don't value ambition as much as I do life experiences. That doesn't mean I'll be inactive in my approach.

[in_a_bottle]

I think I see why Senri-kun really wants to help you.

[divus]

Senri-kun is very nice and very dedicated...he visits a lot which is always fun. [It's hard to ignore the fond tone.] He helped grant a wish for me, so it's my turn to ensure other wishes can be granted for him and the rest of you.

[in_a_bottle]

Even all of you have wishes?

[divus]

I can't speak for everyone else, but I can speak for myself. My wishes are rather simple, but hard to grant all the same.

[in_a_bottle]

I guess so. It's why we have to work hard to work with other people, after all.

[divus]

Precisely that. [...] Have you spoken to your god about your wish yet?

[in_a_bottle]

It's on my list. Why, did you talk to all your followers?

[divus]

Not yet, though I assume there's a reason for that. I'll be reaching out soon, though I can't force anyone to see me.

[in_a_bottle]

I suppose it's hard when it's not your week.

[divus]

Not to mention a week when someone sets a rule about not taking anything out of the rooms. Several of you aren't inclined to just try a prayer or offerings from elsewhere. I suppose some followers may think that's a good excuse.

[in_a_bottle]

How do all of you even come up with these rules?

[divus]

Not all of them are us, you know.

[in_a_bottle]

So that's what they meant.

[divus]

[Beauty suddenly points dramatically, finger in the air as if to say "aha!"]

Precisely! There are some rules not all of us can control. Though there's at least one of us who can be spoken to about any inconveniences.

[in_a_bottle]

Who did Apollo offend, anyway? Because it has to have been him. I mean, poems at trials?

[divus]

Haikus, technically, and I suppose it may not have been only Apollo-san. Chuuya-san as well...is he not a poet? [Hm.]

[in_a_bottle]

He didn't do anything obscene or annoying, though.

[divus]

What one person might find obscene or annoying might be different than another person's idea of the word. [Source: people probably find Beauty annoying.] It's truly hard to say.

[in_a_bottle]

I guess that's true enough. Everyone's got someone who hates them. And a reason to not just be all happy friends.

[divus]

Tragic, isn't it? I've never been a fan of having enemies. That's hardly how I plan to run the world.

[in_a_bottle]

It'd be nice to all get along, at least...

[divus]

And that's ultimately why I've met with you and several others today. I'd like to work together to try and get along as well as we can for the duration of this game. Perhaps it will help.
