Sincerity suddenly goes silent, because that isn't an easy question to answer. Frankly? It's not a question he likes to think about. When he does speak up again, his voice is heavy.]
The winner is decided by whoever has the most living followers at the end of this. Some of the other gods are probably going to try and get their followers to kill to make it easier for them to get a majority.
but senri will pause at that - and he thinks about it. he met a guy with a shotgun, then there's majima who's ex-yakuza, the weirdo intense brothers who might be ninjas....]
Everyone on our team. I'd like to do something for the others if I can, too, but...
[Sincerity shrugs.]
Some of the other gods? They'll send you back because they promised to, but they won't give you anything unless you helped them win. Totally uncool of them, don't you think?
So when you win - what do you get? You can grant the wishes of everyone who followed you - but if I die in the process, do I still get my wish granted?
When I win, I become the most powerful god of all.
[Leader of the pantheon, the Zeus of this ragtag bunch of morons, yadda yadda yadda.]
As long as you're still my follower when you die, I'll grant your wish. But, hey - I'd rather you didn't die. So let's think about ways to keep you alive instead of all that depressing stuff, okay?

Will you try to get me to kill?
no subject
I'd prefer it if you didn't have to. [...] But some people are going to try. If it comes down to either you or them, I'd rather see you stay alive.
no subject
anyway senri is going to pause at that. and he thinks it makes sense.]
As long as you don't ask me to go out of my way to hurt someone... I'll trust you.
[and that much he'll mean sincerely. he offers up a genuine smile, weak and tinged with fear as it may be]
... no matter what, we'll all get to go home after this, right?
no subject
[Sincerity reaches over and puts a hand on Senri's shoulder.]
It's best for our team if I win, though. The winner is going to be the one with the power to grant everyone's desires.
no subject
... everyone's? Everyone in the temple, or everyone on your team?
no subject

no subject
Don't worry, Cheri, I'm good at getting myself out of difficult situations.
[is he?]
But can you give me any hints on who your other followers are - how many people are we working with?
no subject
A moment later, he makes a clucking noise.]
One of the other gods called dibs on telling you that, so I can't say.
no subject
[and he just looks a little tired]
Mm, okay. So you do have to listen to each other on some things?
no subject
"Don't spill it all too fast" is one of them.
no subject
No matter how much you like me?
[senri shut up]
no subject
he really does
but he only manages to make some muffled whining noises because magic is a bitch and a half]
no subject
[and he'll reach out for sincerity's hand because now he's worried he inconvenienced his god]
If it's uncomfortable or really impossible, don't worry about it - I'll be patient just this once!
no subject
Some of us are more inclined to [word vomit] share than others. This was supposed to even the playing field.
no subject
senri just laughs briefly at that and he'll open his arms to offer sincerity a hug. a prince's duty is also to console his god.]
Ahaha... It's a disadvantage to me, I guess, but it's okay. I'm happy just knowing that you tried to give me what I wanted.
[this is so fucking dumb]
no subject
I'll tell you more when I can, I promise.
no subject
[and senri will just happily hold sincerity console him and rock back and forth until sincerity lets go first]
I believe you. So... thank you for being willing to tell me.
no subject
[Sincerity seems cheered up now. He lets go.]
Now - any other questions? I can't just give out information left and right, but if the right questions are asked, I can probably give answers.
no subject
... this is hard. I don't know how detectives do it.
Can I bring a friend to audiences?
[please shut up]
no subject
[A beat.]
I can't say the rest of them would be okay with that, though.
no subject
no subject
[He says, cheerfully.]
If I let you and your friend come visit and poof, one of the other gods decides to smite me, I guess we know I broke a rule!
