You'd think. I'm kinda used to months off at a time, but this whole new working schedule's a mystery to me.

[bakaomi]

Maybe you can work something out.

With... whatever the hell it was that made you gods...? How does this work.

[alittlefuninstead]

...it was almost easier when it was just the Man in the Moon. At least then I knew who I could file complaints to.

[bakaomi]

Do you think that whoever it was will ever reach out to you guys again?

[alittlefuninstead]

In general? Or to run another game like this? [Bad idea.] I'm sure when the world needs saving or changing we'll hear again, but for now...it might just be us.

[bakaomi]

If it does say anything again, make sure you tell it that it should probably be more descriptive when offering jobs.

[alittlefuninstead]

You know how these things are. They don't know how to listen. [Is that how things are, Jack?] But if it does, I'll be sure to give it a piece of my mind.

[bakaomi]

You're free to use my name as well. I'm sure it'll be scared.

[ it's said with a small smile ]

[alittlefuninstead]

Hey, teenagers are some of the scariest things out there. [MCR says so.] They'd be real threatened.

[bakaomi]

Oh, I believe that. I've met Regina.

[ she's terrifying ]

[alittlefuninstead]

Now see that? That is what we call a worse-case scenario. It's why I used to like kids a lot better. [Taka's still just young enough to be considered a kid in Jack's book.] Why anyone offered to make her a god...I still don't get it.

[bakaomi]

I think I can see it? She's assertive and knows how to get what she wants.

[ which is like, actual qualities you'd want in a leader?

she's just also regina ]

[alittlefuninstead]

By manipulating other people. Kind of the big problem with that. [But true.]

[bakaomi]

Everyone has pros and cons.

[ her cons list was just

you know, longer ]

[alittlefuninstead]

Now what kind of pros besides "leadership" did she have? [He's just curious, he doesn't even doubt it.]

[bakaomi]

She made Senri jealous.

[ taka is mean to his boyfriend ]

[alittlefuninstead]

Didn't a lot of people make Senri jealous? [If you're looking for someone to say "Taka be nice to your bunny" this is the wrong person.]

[bakaomi]

[ he thinks...... ]

Sasuke and Rise?

[ he still has no idea sheba made senri jealous. it's fine. ]

[alittlefuninstead]

[...a chuckle.] Yeah, those two. [Ah well, let's not talk about how he can see everything.] It just means that's not the best pro to have.

[bakaomi]

I didn't mind talking to her. I know she was a bitch, but she had her good points.

I just wouldn't have ever voted for her to be in charge.

[alittlefuninstead]

Seems like that's something you and Ludger had in common. [Which is a weird thought to have.] I'm not even sure her followers would've voted for her to be in charge, but that's not really anything against her.

[bakaomi]

... nah.

Not everyone had loyal followers.

[ GUESS WHO STILL FEELS BAD ABOUT HIS DECISION TO SWITCH AND WILL FEEL WORSE ABOUT IT TOMORROW ]

[alittlefuninstead]

Then I guess I was really lucky after all. [Well it's not Jack because even with that, Taka's a good kid and still his follower in his heart. Here's a hair-ruffle.] I never expected it. You know that.

[bakaomi]

You deserved it...

[ it's

mumbled ]

[alittlefuninstead]

[He isn't going to argue that because he knows they'll go in circles about it. Instead, he just smiles.]

...yeah. Maybe we both did. [So there.]
