GODLY AUDIENCES: RAY

...things change, Ray. Is it really so strange to think about? I wasn't happy being an idol anymore, so I took a break to try something else.

[selfimmolates]

You have to admit that most people don't associate "singing and dancing and performing to make people smile" with "future homicide detective".

[divus]

...where I'm from, last year there were a string of kidnappings and murders. After my friends rescued me, I wanted to help solve everything.

[And this is why Love is very anti-murder, surprise surprise.]

[selfimmolates]

... That makes more sense. [a beat.] So the godhood thing really is recent.

[divus]

Yeah. It was recent for us, but time's...[A shrug. Time is nebulous, she's not sure how recent it might have been for the others.] None of us knew each other before this.

[It's a miracle she hasn't been blocked from saying as much as she has, but she's pretty sure it has to do with the fact that Ray's managed to do quite a bit for her.]

[selfimmolates]

Personally, I'm still curious on how exactly the whole god thing happened to begin with.

[though he doesn't expect her to be able to answer that yet.]

[divus]

[Silence.]

...another time maybe, okay?

[selfimmolates]

[he sighs.]

Fine.

[divus]

Good. [Sorry Ray.] Wanna head back? It is a lot colder than I thought it'd be.

[selfimmolates]

Sure. What inspired the change of scenery anyway?

[divus]

I like seeing what the others created. I've seen the east wing, too. It says a lot about what a person's like, don't you think?

[selfimmolates]

Sure. If you ever get a chance at being host, what would you create—or is that a spoiler?

[divus]

It's kind of a spoiler. [Imagine a cute girl throwing in a wink and that's probably about how Love sounds right now.] ...but it'll be something special to me. That's all I know.

[selfimmolates]

Wow, I couldn't have guessed that.

[divus]

You asked! What did you think, that'd it be something useless?

[selfimmolates]

I was hoping for specifics, but I knew I probably wouldn't be getting them.

[divus]

Ray, you know more about me than almost anyone in this entire game. I hope you know that.

[selfimmolates]

Seriously?

[divus]

Trust me, no one is more surprised than I am.

[selfimmolates]

Yeah, I don't know how this happened either.

[he's a dick and he knows it??]

[divus]

Do you regret it?

[selfimmolates]

Not really.

[divus]

...good. [It's soft but pleased all the same.] Come on.

[Let's go back into the temple and this thread is probably good unless Ray has something else.]

[selfimmolates]

[no but also i hate you]
