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.

Never take any of us at face value.
