Definitely the new world. The wish is up in the air since technically you guys would have won...but I also wouldn't leave something like that up to chance. Would you?
Oh I definitely think there are people aligned with some of us just because they want to win. A god's number goes up, others follow because it means there's a high chance of that god staying ahead. That's the thing that's starting to piss me off.
I guess that's what happens when you offer people what they want the most. They don't really pay attention to anything else.
[ taka really wants to win, but on the other hand, he sadly wants to do things the right way because he wants to make things difficult for me, francy. ]
People get desperate, they end up throwing away all kinds of logic just to get what they want. That's what makes power so dangerous in the wrong hands. [There's a sigh, a hand scrubbing over his…mask. Goddamnit.]
But you know people are just going to ignore me saying it because I'm a bloodthirsty god who supported a killing game, I'm a bad guy, whatever. You can see where the problem is.
That's the thing. Nobody's, like, really evil. Evil ideas and really messed up logic, sure, but evil's subjective. If I had to pick there are a lot better names I could've been besides "Cunning." "Cleverness", "Tactical" and "Knowing" would've worked and don't sound half as bad.
…we were all human or close enough at one point. Humans screw up, that's what we do, but would you judge a god by what they did in their mortal life?
[ but hm... even merriment said something similar, of how there were other things he could have potentially been called. ]
I think that it's probably still important, since... a lot of your motivations for why you're a god now probably came from that, but... you're going to spend a lot more time as a god than you will as a human if you're immortal.
[There's a huff that's probably disbelief, but he lets that go.]
Most of us, anyway. I'm just saying that sometimes things happen post-ascension that changed our overall plans, or made things different than what we thought about as humans.

... do you think there are more people who are with their god because of a convenient reason, or because they truly want their world to happen?

[ it's getting exhausting watching cunning fight against the mask at this point. ]
You're not that bad. Kind of harsh and rude, and I probably wouldn't agree with some of the shit you do, but you're not evil.

Never take any of us at face value.
