............... [ you're right he doesn't like that.

his visceral reaction is most certainly unpleasant. nothing like anger or even disgust, just... something pained. sad. .... he doesn't like it, but he can't actually object either. ]

If that's really what you want to do I won't stop you. But I don't want to lose you, Anubis.

Re: DISCUSS

I don't... I don't know what to do. I'm thinking about it too hard, I know, I'm trying to find loopholes where they don't exist, but I just...!

...... [ just looping his arms around his head and pulling him into a hug, shh. shhh.... ]

It'll be okay. ...... I'm sorry. You don't have to work so hard all the time. It's not fair to make you be our strategist every single time.

[ ... pets his hair. it's okay.... ]

Just be the dumb one like all the rest of us. It's fine, as long as we're all here for each other and support each other.... we can get through anything. I promise.

Re: DISCUSS

[artificialinelegance]

BECAUSE LUCIFEL WOULD HAVE. IF I DIDN'T. DO YOU THINK I WANTED. TO SEND ANY OF US OUT THERE?

Re: DISCUSS

[rollwillpowercheck]

I know you didn't! But...!

Re: DISCUSS

[artificialinelegance]

I RISKED MYSELF. SO SOMEONE ELSE WOULD NOT.

THAT IS DIFFERENT. THAN YOU DYING FOR CERTAIN. WHEN SOMEONE ELSE MIGHT NOT.

Re: DISCUSS

[rollwillpowercheck]

Re: DISCUSS

[artificialinelegance]

MIGHT BE. AND IF HE ISN'T. YOU DIE.

NO. WE NEED TO GET RID OF WILD CITY. THEY WILL ATTACK US NOW. SINCE I PROVOKED THEM.

Re: DISCUSS

[rollwillpowercheck]

Great, now they'll hate us even more.

Re: DISCUSS

[artificialinelegance]

HATE US MORE THAN. THEY NEED TO. TO MAKE AN UNPROVOKED ATTACK. LIKE WITH THE POISON.

WHICH. BY THE WAY. I TOLD YOU ALL WOULD HAPPEN.

Re: DISCUSS

[sancrimony]

Re: DISCUSS

[rollwillpowercheck]

Then... the game progresses.

Re: DISCUSS

[sancrimony]

. . . Very well.

[ actually fairly calm about that ]
