[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?

[divus]

You can ask me anything.

[will fortune be able to answer? that's the question.]

[bakaomi]

How do you think the game is going so far?

[divus]

...I'm not happy about the fact that we had to have a trial already, if that's what you mean.

[fortune is not particularly glad about murder]

But I think it's... still too early to say. The same person is in the lead as last week, but I noticed something that worried me. Even though one of her followers was taken out of the game and even though most of you don't seem to like her very much, Ambition still has the same number of followers as last week. That means someone decided to join her.

[...]

I didn't expect that.

[bakaomi]

... it would have been a Justice or Indulgence follower, right?

[ going by who has less followers ]

I'm surprised too, especially after Shiki wanted to leave Ambition so bad.

[divus]

I can't say.

[Godly rules and all... because there's also the chance there might have been other swaps, too. Maybe someone from Fortune joined Ambition, and someone from Justice or Indulgence joined Fortune, etc.]

...but I don't spend much time with Ambition. She's... [mmmm] I don't like her very much.

[bakaomi]

Why not? I know she's not very popular, but I've gotten vague details as to why.

[ the god drama... ]
