[He'll hand it over to gu yun once he's done, but he looks a bit disconcerted at both of these statements. Gang?]
I won't say I didn't think there'd be some sort of twist, but-- You really think if people get together, the inevitable outcome is killing each other? Every time?
I won't say the Avatars didn't say some concerning things, and fuck if I can't think of myself as stupid for being surprised, but I didn't want to be proven right about that.
It's not so much that - I definitely don't find that indulgent. What we've done so far has worked quite fine for me, and I'd be happy to continue on the way we have. [ he wrinkles his nose a little, at the idea, and takes the bottle to take a swig. really, the point of indulging here is not dealing in killing people... ] It's more that it all felt too good to be true. I suppose someone had to ruin it.
[ there's a pause. he swishes the remaining liquid around in the bottle, before ultimately deciding its too sweet and passing it on to someone else. ] The reason I agreed to come here is not a desire easily granted. I wouldn't have agreed, otherwise. [ the black iron camp can't be without its commander, after all! ] I imagine many of us are the same.
How easy is it to create enough indulgence to power all of those desires into being? How can indulgence magically create the resources to let those things happen?
...I've been wondering if there's a limit, to just how many desires they can actually grant.
Let's be honest, we don't know much about anyone here. You bring a group of people together and maybe you'll get lucky and they'll all be decent and everyone will have a good time. Or maybe you'll get a few people who have creative interpretations of the rules, and are willing to push them to their boundaries.
... And what I want isn't something easily granted either. [ he'll take that bottle from gu yun and sip it before continuing. ] I'd already wondered if they were tracking our indulgences, how much we do and what we do, like some sort of scoring system? But... maybe there's another layer to it
If you really want it, you have to earn it. But through harder means than just keep your Avatar happy and have a fun time doing so.
