[usogi]

[he's sighing quietly at that. he leans against tamaki but with his free hand, he rattles off alignments and counts on his fingers - ]

Merriment, Piety, Beauty, Indulgence, and Justice - I have all of them accounted for.

I tried to keep it simple... that's why I thought she might've been with Ambition. If she learned why Guy-san did what he did, maybe. Because I heard that Bambi offered him a deal in order to protect a god and their follower... which would probably be Luke-kun and Piety.

Right...?

[divus]

[You're doing great sweetie. Tamaki's going to keep him close and nod along.]

I'm not sure of what deal she may have made with him, but if that is true I suppose that would be correct, yes.

How are you so sure you have the aforementioned five accounted for though?

[usogi]

Merriment is Sasuke, Taka, and Ishirin-san. Beauty is still Mizuki-san. Piety is Luke-kun. Indulgence is Ogou-san still, and Yu-kun isn't cursed so he had to have joined him. Justice is Mouri-san, Oda-san, and Connor-san.

I'm waiting for confirmations on if the three Ambitions we knew last week have moved... If Estelle was Ambition, that means only two Ambition followers actually moved.

Then that means they went to Love and Sincerity.

[divus]

[Wow. That's impressive. He nods along...but.]

Senri. I want you to think for a moment. When do we announce the tallies for the week?

[usogi]

[kiss him for his trouble and hard work

no don't actually do that]

At the very beginning? As soon as the new gods come in...

[divus]

[Somewhere, Taka ragequits.]

Right. Which is right after...?

[usogi]

The old gods leave... after what happened to Estelle.

[ . . . ]

Am I missing something...?

[divus]

Do you recall the numbers from last week?

[usogi]

[hggghh]

All of them? They're on my phone...

[divus]

Your answer lies there.

[usogi]

[ . . . ]

Tama-chin, you're confusing me more!

[divus]

It's basic math, Senri.

[usogi]

[fffsldkfjsdlkfjsdf

he's pausing and pulling his phone out of his pocket so that he can go to his fucking list of notes]

Three less Ambition, one new Indulgence, one less Love, one less Sincerity this week, without taking into account internal switches that aren't obvious.

[ . . . ]

So Estelle was an Ambition, and two more of them swapped to Love and Sincerity.

[THAT'S WHAT HE SAID, RIGHT. did this go in a circle]

[divus]

[He pauses, looking at him with such fondness before he sloooowly leans in, gently, and places his lips next to Senri's ear to whisper.]

No. [TRY AGAIN. Also why did he do that? Just to mess with him, frankly.]

Think of the facts that you know. Lady Love started with four last week, didn't she? Narukami-kun, Zoe, Nonon-san and Sieg-kun. Without Zoe, that's three. Narukami, as you've said, moved to Indulgence. Two. Without Sieg-kun, that should be one, but he and Cinque-san swapped, leaving him to go to Disorder and her to Love. Two. A third switched to Love.

Now. Whose numbers did not switch at all? Piety and myself, as you've accounted for. Merriment as well, which you've accounted for since you know all of them. But who else?

[usogi]

[SLDKJFLSKJDFSDF

it's kind of helpful that senri's struck speechless enough that he has to listen to tamaki's words. he's pointedly looking away even though he's blushing up to his ears and he's. thinking. dammit. where's ray.

after a little bit - ]

Um.

... Cunning....

[ . . . ]

Madopyon is still there, so is Guy-san. I thought the last one was Alex, who annoys me. [is. is that why he's on cunning.]

Disorder - and the second person cursed Yu-kun.

Justice - who Sasuke-kun confirmed to me is Mouri-san and Oda-san, and I know the third is Connor-san.

[divus]

I do wonder...Senri, how often have you switched gods by now? Have you switched from one god and then back to Sincerity?

[Tamaki is useless, but the fact he's not correcting him means that Senri's on the right track. At least they're approaching the wing by now.]

[usogi]

Are you trying to make me feel bad for not joining you yet.

[no he's just teasing sdlfkj though he hums softly]

Mm, three times total, even though I finally made it back to Cheri.

[ . . . ]

There was one person that I didn't find, on Cheri's team besides Jude-kun and Madopyon. Did they make it back to Cheri?

Or are you saying that someone switched back to another team...?

[divus]

You'll always have a space on my team if you ever wish to take it. [Shut up, Tamaki. There's a smile though.]

You aren't the only person to have one god they gravitate back towards. Isn't Uchiha-kun the same way? [Senri can take that as he wishes.] I do wonder if they realized numbers wouldn't change at all that way.

[usogi]

... hmm.

[senri's thoughtful about that as he walks along, counting out the numbers on his hands]

Do you mean that people on Bambi's team might be going back to some of their original gods?

[divus]

Perhaps next week, but think of everything in this game as a long chain. And don't focus on Ambition's team, you're confusing yourself by adding too many elements. Think of the others you've mentioned and you'll find your answer.

[usogi]

It's not my fault there's so many of you and you're not allowed to tell me what I need to know. [cry. he wants a lot of street food after this.]

Cunning, Disorder, Justice.

[ . . . ]

Estelle was with Justice? [and presumably someone filled her spot]

[divus]

...I think we should treat ourselves, don't you? For the tour.

[So yes, there's that. I hate that we just did this for way too many comments.]

[usogi]

[THAT TOOK SO LONG]

Next time we're using signals.

Kiss my left hand if my guess is wrong, kiss my right hand if my guess is right.

[SENRI]

[divus]

[...he just picks up Senri's right hand to kiss the back of it?????]

[usogi]

[sdlkfjsdlfjk

senri's just laughing - and he'll turn his right hand so he can cup tamaki's cheek for a second, fond as ever

and then he'll pull away]

Thanks.
