[since he's only seen the motions in action once, it's a struggle. he pinches and moves his fingers at the same time, causing the screen to go haywire. the image becomes so enlarged that only a single letter can be read at a time. there's another attempt, then one or five more before he manages to get a decent view.
it takes way longer than it should to read the letter, and he abruptly looks up with curious eyes.]
You were jealous of the doctor for giving a performance?
I left some desserts for my first offering, but it was difficult to tell if they were liked. Are you thinking about making extras for our current great gods?
Not great. I went to Cunning because Bambi was worried.... but if gods get to pick who they remove from the game if they get voted for, it doesn't look great for me.
No, but I think he can tell I'm not all that loyal to him either - our views don't really match up.
Though he did tell me... it sounds like that the followers have to match the ideals of their gods, or else the world that the god creates might not look as perfect.
Then our choices affect more than just who takes leadership—the world that the winning god creates, too? I . . . Isn't this method too dependent on an outside party?
Right. What matters is that an effort was made, and it's important that you take care of yourself here. People are really different: There will always be someone you don't get along with right away.
But not the same way Yu-kun did. If all we do is try to switch to one god to end the game early, without caring about their world, the contest results will be voided and they'll have to do this all over again with another batch of people. I can't let that happen.
... but if I can convince people to try to follow one responsible god at the end, because they really believe in them, and not just for the numbers - I think I can help as many people get their wish as possible.

he squints, brings his face closer to the phone, and squints some more.]
My eyes aren't as good as they used to be. I can't read this.

Oh. Here, watch me.
[and he'll reach over, pinching his fingers so that he can zoom in, and then use his finger to move the image. he offers it over to shang....]
Use it like that.

Oh - yeah! I was super jealous that he got to see Passhi! Last time she just sort of said hello to me, but it was barely anything.

But... I want to see if I can keep talking to the gods on the other side, and see what they can do.

Does your new god like cookies, Shang-san?

[ . . . except now he's curious??]
Your god takes care of you, right Shang-san...? I guess...
Well, I trust you. And I want to make sure that I don't vote for your god on accident when it comes to trials.

But the way that I play this game - it's all about trying to make connections.
So we butt heads a little....

I have to look out for myself - but I did try to get along with him at least.

I'm just trying to find the other followers of gods that I don't know too...

If that time ever comes, which great god will you gather everyone under?
