[from like ten feet away—]

Hey, Takaomi!

[bakaomi]

...

Why are you all the way over there?

[selfimmolates]

In case your urges resurface.

[bakaomi]

I'm going to leave.

[ ray is right to be safe but taka doesn't have to like it ]

[selfimmolates]

Senri told me that you're planning on talking to Ruin.

[bakaomi]

Yup.

[ he waits for ray to continue ]

[selfimmolates]

He suggested we compare notes, seeing as how we're dealing with the most dangerous god of the pantheon. I've got a few leads on how to approach her, so I'll be trying it myself next week, once the rule lifts.

[bakaomi]

Depending on how it goes with me I can tell you what not to say so you don't get cursed.

[ it's a joke ]

[selfimmolates]

[a snort.]

For better or for worse, Ruin's apparently more discreet about her anger, so you might not even notice if you pissed her off until it's too late.

[bakaomi]

Have you talked to her already? Or just to people who have?

[selfimmolates]

[he shrugs.]

Nope. I'm just doing my research.

[bakaomi]

... who else have you spoken to?

[selfimmolates]

Most of the gods, at this point. Eight of the twelve?

[bakaomi]

Which ones haven't you hit up yet besides Ruin?

[selfimmolates]

[he raises an eyebrow.]

I normally wouldn't just give that info away for free... but you're lucky I've already swapped notes with Senri, so he'd probably tell you anyway.

Disorder, who I'm going to try again next week, and Ambition and Indulgence. They're the only ones who didn't like my offerings.

[bakaomi]

Yeah. He mentioned he was talking to someone who spoke to a lot of the gods, but he didn't give me the name.

[ so. as soon as ray started the conversation he assumed it was him. ]

What did you try to give them?

[selfimmolates]

First, tell me which gods you've spoken with.

[bakaomi]

Not as many as you so that might be too telling.

[selfimmolates]

[fine!!]

You can leave out your patron god, if that helps.

[bakaomi]

Love, Merriment, Beauty, Fortune, Sincerity, Piety...

Ruin and Justice are next.

[selfimmolates]

Hehhh. You know, that's more than I'd spoken to when I gave Senri my list.

Anyway, Justice is easy. He likes company.

[bakaomi]

A lot of them are pretty chatty.

[ it

does not sound like a compliment coming from him ]

[selfimmolates]

Yeah, really friendly.

[it's not exactly a compliment coming from ray either, it's okay]

[bakaomi]

I guess it's easier to get people to do stuff for you if you seem nice.

[ ... ]

Especially at the start.

[selfimmolates]

Considering Ambition and Disorder are already driving out followers with their attitudes? Yeah, it's a smart move to make.
