[ majima honestly doesn't even care to consider if senri is lying about those three or not, because it's something. if he really means what he said earlier, this much at least must be true, right? ]
That kid's a work of art, ain't he? [ beat ] Any of 'em tell ya what happens when one of 'em loses all their followers?
"Grounds for elimination" - so they might lose their spot in the competition entirely.
[senri pulls the coat closer again - before he notices his own anxiety, then sighing and forcing himself into relaxing as he shakes his head.]
I asked Beauty what that meant. Will they be okay? Do they go to where Passhi is? Is their elimination the same thing as our elimination - where we have to be killed to not count in the game anymore?
[ . . . senri lets his gaze fall to the table]
Gods have a rule that they can't tell too much all at once - no matter how much they want to tell me. It's happened to me before, where a god that really liked me wanted to tell me something, but it just came out muffled. I couldn't tell if that's what happened to Beauty before he could answer me or... if he just didn't answer because he didn't want to upset me.
Huh... wonder if that's why Patience-han just didn't really say anythin' to us, period.
[ he also pauses in contemplation. ]
She did mention that if one of 'em somehow dies, they'll get replaced to keep the balances in check or somethin'. But she said it hasn't happened before, so as far as she knows, that's just a wild guess.
[ he sighs. ]
Ya know I'm not the thinkin' type. I know dick all what to do with all'a this info.
[senri pauses at that - 'replaced to keep the balances in check' manages to make him puff up a little bit in irritation. what does that mean? could something happen to them?
but at majima's last statement, he glances up and offers a smile]
.... I think Majima-san has a pretty good idea of who to trust in here. As long as you promise not to tell them that the information's from me, I think it'd help to get it circulating. I'm trying to share more where I can too.
I'm just nervous I'll attract attention I don't want too, if I'm too loud about it.
Ya realize who I trust an' who trusts me may as well be two different circles, yeah?
[ it's a tough reality that he's kind of helped perpetuate due to... being him. unfortunate.
ironically enough, senri saying that he'll "attract attention" makes majima look at him a little more, specifically in the new addition to his wardrobe. ]

... what are ya doin' with his coat?
no subject
.... um, he gave it to me....
I was cold.
[it was really shoujo, actually]
He takes really good care of me.... so that's part of why I want to make sure he doesn't get hurt.
