he looks surprised at first - and admittedly a little nervous - but he doesn't pull his hand away from hers?? then he's just going to look around them as his expression slowly lights up, like a sun breaking across a horizon]
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.
[ . . . there's no hiding the slight worry on his face.]
... I don't know, but I'm going to try.
Do you think I should be careful? I've heard a lot of people tell me that she's.... well, she's very focused on being strong. I know someone like that. They intimidate me already....
But if something happens to me, I think a lot of people will be angry - and it'll hurt more than help anybody.
I think anyone should be careful if they go talk to her. Even as a god... it's hard to tell how she's going to react to things sometimes. She'll laugh when you think she'll get mad, or get mad when you think she's going to laugh...

It's against the rules for her to hurt you herself, though. You don't have to worry about that.

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.

Wooooowww! Amazing, amazing!!

It's fun, right?
no subject
Super fun! You should just do this with everyone who comes to see you, then I'm sure you'll get a ton of followers!

[She sounds. Really happy? There's an on cloud nine joke here somewhere but I'm too tired to make it.]
That's so kind of you, Senri.
no subject
I think it's what anyone would do.
If nothing else, I'm on your side - even if it's not showing up on the numbers. I really want you to be happy, no matter who wins.
no subject
If some of the gods thought like that, this whole thing would probably be easier...
[siiiiiiiighs]
no subject
... who do you think would be the hardest to convince?
I don't know if the others told you... but I'm trying really hard to figure out how to help everyone get along, even after all of us are gone.
no subject
[everyone's so scared of her]
Do you think you'll be able to do that?

She can still curse me though, can't she?

.... okay, guess I gotta risk it.
I heard that she tends to keep to herself - is that true?
