[Merriment to Taka: this is mine now nobody can take it if anything happens to him I will kill everyone in this room and then myself.
Merriment to other people: ...well. Sure.

But somehow Beauty thinks that makes sense, and just brushes it off. It's apparently not breaking a rule given he laughs instead.]

Clashing personality types is precisely why we're here. We're all still learning to work with one another, after all, but it's become easier thanks to some of you.

[bakaomi]

[ merriment is the most valid god of all time and takaomi will stan him forever. ]

Yeah, who knew you had to have people summoning you every ten minutes for you to get anything done?

[divus]

[There's a slight smile.] I'm more used to this than the others, I believe. Entertaining individuals, appealing to requests…it's familiar from my old life. It's now about making things within the pantheon balance.

[bakaomi]

What the hell did you even do?

[divus]

I was the president of a host club for my high school.

[So many things may make sense now.]

[bakaomi]

[ he covers his face and groans ]

[divus]

[He reaches across the table and pats Taka on the head. There, there.]

[bakaomi]

How do I kick your was but in like, a respectable way?

[divus]

In theory, you already have.

[By taking Senri, but he's a good sport about it.]

[bakaomi]

[ ... he actually laughs, although there's not much humor in it.

it's more sad, than anything. ]

I guess so.

[divus]

[There's a resigned smile as he leans back just a bit.]

Shishimaru-kun. I...care for him deeply. That won't change. But I'd like to get to know you better as well. I hope that's alright.

[bakaomi]

...

I'm not as nice as he is.

[ he'll. get that out there. ]

[divus]

Neither was my best friend. You'll have to do better than that.

[bakaomi]

[ he just

makes a disgruntled face

before going to drink tea ]

[divus]

[Just a pleasant smile!]

That's still not really an answer.

[bakaomi]

Is there anyone you don't get along with?

[divus]

[There's a long pause of silence as he thinks about that...

...it'll be silent for a while.]

[bakaomi]

[ every moment of silence just pisses him off more ]

[divus]

Possibly! Though I try to get along with everyone.

[Sorry Taka.]

[bakaomi]

...

But there's definitely people you dislike, right?

[divus]

Dislike is a very strong word, Shishimaru-kun. There are people who don't agree with me and I understand that, but I don't know about dislike.

[He can be a petty-ass bitch too, he's just not saying so. It's irrelevant.]

[bakaomi]

No one is that agreeable about everything.

[ beauty........ cannot be real ]

[divus]

You misunderstand. It's not about being agreeable so much as it is about knowing compromise and negotiations. While there are several things from my old life I hardly agreed with, in a game like this where it's not just about us it's best to be agreeable to try and understand everyone's points of view and ensure a satisfactory ending.

...that, and I consider such things new experiences to take and understand people better.

[bakaomi]

[ it's really annoying that the more beauty talks, the more taka understands why senri likes him. ]

Even when the experiences are bad?

[divus]

Yes, even when the experiences are bad. If it helps me understand their world a little better, I'd like to know.
