Figures. When I asked Merriment how long you guys were gods, he couldn't say either. Just that it wasn't as long as we might think.

[ and after spending time with them all, taka can definitely see that. ]

[divus]

If we'd been at this longer, we probably could have decided this without your help.

[this murdergame literally only exists because the gods are idiots, y'all]

Sorry you got... stuck in all of this. I know you decided to be here, but it's not a decision you should have had to make in the first place.

[bakaomi]

I mean, if I knew all the specific details I probably would have said pass.

[ the murder and also the hugging.

but he shrugs. ]

There's no point in wondering if we should have said no instead though. We're here, so we need to get through it.

[divus]

I just hope it's worth it at the end. All of you are going to make it home, but... only some of you are going to get what you want.

[...]

You seem nice. I hope you get what you're playing for.

[bakaomi]

I obviously do too.

... although being called nice is new.

[divus]

Really? But it was very nice of you to talk with me.

[Fortune sounds kind of surprised.]

Not many of you have come to see me yet aside from my followers, so I appreciate it.

[bakaomi]

[ this seems like a common occurrence since she is not the first one to tell him that. ]

... well, it's the smart thing to do, isn't it...

[divus]

Um...

[There is definitely something she's thinking... but she doesn't really want to be the one to say it.]

[bakaomi]

Just say whatever rude thing is on your mind. I won't tell anyone.

[divus]

...I don't really think we picked the smartest people to be here...

[welp.]

[bakaomi]

[ skjdaskfs

he tries to cover his mouth, but it's too late he's

bursting out into laughter ]

[divus]

[Fortune pauses for a moment, surprised, but... nope, she's giggling along with him not too long after.]

You're laughing because you know I'm right.

[bakaomi]

Yeah, but it's expected from me...!

[ no one would blink at taka calling people idiots ]

[divus]

Are you saying you didn't expect it from me?

[Fortune sounds amused.]

[bakaomi]

We just met. You could have lacked a sense of humor for all I know.

[divus]

Or I could have had the best sense of humor in the world.

[bakaomi]

I dunno. I've only laughed once?

[ which is once more than like every other conversation he has had here ]

[divus]

That sounds like a challenge.

[challenge: accepted]

You'll have to talk to me more so I can try and make you laugh again!

[bakaomi]

Hm...

[ he seems to be considering it... ]

Deal. If you manage you can claim a prize.

[divus]

All right! And to make it fair...

[because fairness matters, apparently??]

If we have three more conversations and I don't make you laugh, you can claim a prize from me.

[bakaomi]

[ he holds his hand out ]

Deal.

[divus]

[Fortune holds their hand out to shake his.

The hand is small and delicate=looking, and definitely looks like a girl's hand, but the fingers are calloused.]

Deal!

[bakaomi]

[ and the deal has been made. ]

We'll see if you deserve the role of funniest god.

[divus]

[did taka make a deal with the devil? only time will tell]

I do, you'll see!

[bakaomi]

[ i hope so please fuck him up ]

... can I ask something else?
