[It's only the mention of Piety that sends his eyes back open, wide, head jerking towards Senri. For a moment, his own emotional state seems to be completely cast to the side, as he stares at Senri with an expression somewhere between analytical and anxious.
And then, it's gone. It's still Senri, after all. And if Ishikirimaru trusted him, then... that was more than enough. Luke nods, acquiescing to the information—only to get sidelined by Senri's second statement.]
It depends on the wish. I'm... working on it. But, you know...
[he sighs quietly]
There are some people who don't want their wishes anymore. I... think I could go okay, without mine. That kind of thing. So I thought I'd ask for Ray-kun's instead of mine. If someone else I know wins, they could ask for your wish, instead of theirs. Because... I think some wishes are bigger than others, and they need to be on the winning team.
But... some gods will grant smaller wishes to people who aren't on their team. Favors, blessings... I don't even need that - but it'd be better than leaving this place with nothing, you know?
... you might not have to. If someone else wins, and will take Ray-kun's, then I can take yours.
This is only if you don't win yourself, of course... and I want you to. I really, really want you to. I'll let you know everything that I'm trying to plan but... I'm going to see if I can convince a lot of people to switch to Piety in the last week, so that we can get as many wishes granted as possible.
[More than his own wish, he seems... genuinely excited about the idea of people switching to Piety.]
You'd do that for us?! Piety's great, you know! He's really nice, and he really means it when he just wants to help moderate stuff! It's not a weird powergrab! He's got experience, and he's really good at it!

Grant as many wishes as possible...?
[...What?]
What does that... is that even possible?

[There's a beat, and he adds on:]
...Th-That's what I heard, at least.
