You get to pick the punishment for whoever breaks your rule. You could... have it be something nice, to cheer them up, if you wanted. I "punished" someone who left me similarly.
...dangerous situations have a way of bringing people closer together.

Not that you should have to be in a dangerous place just to get used to someone, but it's easier to cooperate when you have to work together to survive.

I can't really join you right now... but I'll see who I can talk to to try to get them on your side, even for a little bit. I don't want you to be alone.

I guess you're not wrong. I've at least been really relieved that he's here for me to rely on.
But... it sounds like you've been in some dicey situations before...? Was your life before you came here like that?
no subject
[Hmm. How to describe it, she wonders...]
From what I've read about the world you come from... it sounds like Earth is very peaceful. The world I came from... it's not always that peaceful.

[that's the one that senri knows as pretty dangerous-sounding]
... I'm sorry. It sounds hard just thinking about it. Did you have to learn how to fight?
no subject
[Fortune shrugs.]
But even before I was a god, I could do... you'd call it magic. So it wasn't as hard as you might think.

[She sounds. Really happy? There's an on cloud nine joke here somewhere but I'm too tired to make it.]
