I'm gonna be honest, I dunno if I can promise ya that. I told Indulgence-han at the start that I'd stick by him 'til the end. I know I was tellin' the other gods that I'd be keepin' my options open, but I was mostly bluffin'. I pledged my loyalty to him. Even if that means I don't get my wish, I don't go back on my word, an' I'm stubborn as hell, to boot. I'll do what I can to help ya all out, but...
[but he says it slowly, like he's running through the number again, as if trying to decide whether or not it is okay]
I'm... gonna talk to Bambi, and see if I can get Ray-kun's wish granted no matter what, even if she wins. But... ah...
I thought it'd be something like that. Where people might end up staying loyal to their gods... I understand but I... I really wanted to get more wishes granted if I could, Ogou-san.
At this point... stickin' to my morals means more to me than my wish. If I ain't true to myself an' what I stand for, then what's the point, ya know? So don't worry about me an' my selfish ass. [ he pauses to regard senri carefully. ] Yer kinda doin' the same for Ray, ain'tcha?
[ he means senri giving up on his own wish, that is. ]
Who knows? Apparently I've got charisma for days. Maybe I can try convincin' some other undecideds myself?
... you're never selfish, Ogou-san. You haven't been, and I don't know if you ever will be.
... Mouri-san is an unknown to me. Oda-san says he doesn't care about his wish anymore, but I don't know what that means for what team he'll be on.
If Ogou-san could squeeze in time to talk to them before Saturday... I'd appreciate it. I don't... I'm going to try to tell everyone that I can, about the plan to switch to Piety. But I think the most important part is just that we just need more numbers than Ambition.
[ with his own self-mocking laugh, because god senri is genuinely precious and naive and means so much to him, majima puts his hand on senri's shoulder in what's become a very familiar gesture in these past few weeks. ]
Mouri-han an' Oda-han... I'll give it a shot. It's the least I can do for ya. [ a small sigh ] It ain't Ambition-han's fault she got a buncha assholes on her team.
[the familiar hand is reassuring and it manages to get senri to relax a little - majima could probably feel the tension that he was holding before, the nervousness and stress from trying to figure everything out but
he relaxes, but not without a pout]
... yeah. I told Bambi that she's not the same as her followers to me but...
I'd probably hate to be on the same team as someone who hurt Ray-kun for even a second.
Eh, I ran outta stupid things to call him, so I gave up. I already cut the "maru" outta Ishikiri-jisan's name, so I just started doin' it with Shishi-kun, too.
[ he shrugs! he'll never tell! ]
For real? What a douchecanoe paddlin' up a sea of shit.
Ahaha, I don't mind then. I'd like it if you two got along.
[THE DAD AND THE BOYFRIEND
but also
he's totally laughing and brightening up]
Right? And for all the fuss that he made about Sasuke trying to protect us all, he still didn't condemn Catra and Entrapta for what they did? I don't trust his opinion on anything at all, Ogou-san.
I ain't gonna be the first in line to vouch for Uchiha, but I'll come fuckin' runnin' if that black an' white bag of dicks tries to start some shit this week.
We made an agreement. I lend him my fists if he ever thought anyone else needed some roughin' up for the greater good, an' he turns the other way while I beat the shit outta Guy. We both got somethin' we wanted out of it.
[ HE SAYS THIS SO CASUALLY IT'S PROBABLY CONCERNING but also, he is, him, ]
Then... yeah... I hope that this weekend will be okay. Um... Sasuke is still on Merriment, but he just wants to stay awake to protect me and Taka. He won't go out of his way to make anymore trouble. I promise. If he does, you can get mad at me.

The one that ain't Shishi-kun.

Shishi-kun.... Are you getting along better?
[he sounds so hopeful
but,]
... he's difficult, isn't he? I have no idea what to do with him when he likes to argue with me so much...
You know he used Advancement Opportunity on Ray-kun before because he thought that he killed Fortune? I don't like him at all. He's stupid.

It's okay, if you need to be mad at me sometimes. I don't mind being scolded by my Ogou-san either.
That's part of being family, right?
