[The head lifts, but he still!! frowns softly!!] What is it? You know this week it isn't free. [He's not getting cursed again, dammit.

And maybe, like, he also doesn't want Senri to get cursed either.]

[usogi]

That's okay - just be nice in whatever you want from me. I'm not trying to be mean.

[HE, FOR SOME REASON, TOTALLY BELIEVES THAT SASUKE WON'T BE HORRIBLE TO HIM,

but anyway.]

The favor is....! Open your heart juuuust a little bit, to the idea that you're a good person who's trying to help people, and deserves to be cared for in return. Even if you make mistakes, but everyone's allowed to do that, because we're human.

Just give it a shot - for me.

[Very softly, he scoffs under his breath. Of course it would be something as stupid and sentimental as that. He wants to argue that the mistakes he's made are something he'll probably be persecuted for later if he even manages to survive his fight with Naruto.

But... He tables that for... never.] Fine. [No promises.] My turn. You owe me a favor. [He searches Senri's face and eye with his own.]

...Teach me how to play one of the games.

[usogi]

[ . . . . stupid. senri's expression somehow manages to soften at that before he shakes his head in disbelief.]

Wooow, that's quite the task you've put in front of me... [but he'll just grin and lightly bump into sasuke on his way to head back out the door] But okay, I guess I'll give it a shot.

There's no TV in the room, so I just got a handheld system - we'll have to come back here eventually so I can show you others.

[moralmyopia]

[Oof. Butthole.

Not wanting whining, he turns and follows Senri back out of the game room and to the other wing and the inn. HMMM. He now has a reason to even say anything about this topic which he didn't get before.]

What about the one you came with?

[usogi]

Bakaomi broke it!!

[HE'S

HEARTBROKEN]

I gave it to Justice to fix - he said it'd be ready by the time that I got to go back to his team but uh... that hasn't happened yet, so.

[moralmyopia]

[Yeah well, maybe Takaomi shouldn't have been an idiot and let Sasuke take the Switch to Ray to have it fixed. It's fine.]

He's probably busy. Don't bother him. Maybe you should punch Takaomi twice.

[usogi]

I already asked....

[TOO LATE]

Oh - how much do you talk to Piety, by the way?

[moralmyopia]

[..........................]

I've never talked to Piety. Not even when they came to trial.

[usogi]

[ . . . . . . . . . ]

You should start.

Not as a favor to me - but....

[sasuke,,]

Ray-kun and Shishimaru agree that he's one of the best suited to being a leader, of the gods here. I love Justice just as much as you do, and I want him to be happy, but you should try talking to Piety too.

[moralmyopia]

[listen, he doesn't like the gods!!!!! (kinda. maybe one or two oR THREE)]

I don't have any reason to talk to them. [Really... honestly, he's met a few gods whose worlds he likes, and he doesn't want another to just make him indecisive. He can't turn his back on Justice?] I don't believe in piety being a trait to base a world on.

[He peers at Senri.]

You think just because those two like Piety, I would?

[usogi]

I think because you want to leave behind a world where it can be peaceful, you would like Piety. The gods don't really get to pick their names from what I remember. I think you have sense.

Piety, in their previous life, was some kind of mediator. He's really helpful when it comes to providing information about the other gods, and he knows their strengths and weaknesses well. No one really has it out for him personally, probably because he's so easy to get along with. I think you need to know how to work with people in order to be a good leader.

... just say hello to him. I'm trying to figure out how to get as many people their wishes as possible, but you need to believe in the god's world in order for it to count.

[moralmyopia]

[For a long time, he's quiet, following behind Senri. He's listening? If Senri glances back, it's clear, even though he's looking ahead, he's been listening and he's thinking.

Considering.

Very quietly, he finally says:] Come with me.

[usogi]

[senri blinks in surprise

but his smile is easy]

Mm, okay. I can do that.

[moralmyopia]

[Shut up. Don’t say anything. It’s not like he needs Senri anyway, damn!!]

Alright.
