Probably safer to expect the worse option to be true, at this point. [ if things can go wrong they WILL we are FULL MURPHYS LAW in this mg. though her saying this... ] You been looking?
Um... I haven't really been trying, no. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious—about who it is or what the upgraded powers are—but when I think about someone else dying because of anything happening to me...
... Yeah. I'm not into tying my life to someone else's like that, "wish" or not. [ looking down at his hand as he flexes it briefly ] And something about making the monster they infused us with stronger doesn't sit right with me.
[ he has like, monster issues and no proof this changes anything whether the powers are upgraded or not ]
Mm-hmm... the only sticking point for me is that Aerith pointed out that using those powers might help us, if we can think of how to use them in the right way, but...
It does feel weird relying on the thing that's causing problems for us, and it's a lot to risk.
Which is going to make things pretty hard for us if people use them to, um, kill. [a beat] That's one surprising upside to people cursing each other throughout the week beforehand...
[ cloud every time something happens in this game: thats the thing im sensitive about ]
It's got to be feelings in general. The... whole thing was already pretty intense. [ saying it reluctantly he doesn't want to talk about that part but y'know ]
... And it sounded like someone made Geto and Daan, I think it was, hate each other. Do you think it's the same power, or are there two that are opposite sides of the same coin?
... It'd make sense for it to be the same power. It only going one way sounds a little reductive. [ a pause ] Which would mean both people in that pair are the kind to use it for fun.
... Yeah, you do need a certain kind of mentality to just start throwing that kind of power around before anything happens, huh? [...] I wouldn't be surprised if they have an easier time finding each other because of it...

Yeah. She had a point that... the downside with not looking for your match is that it leaves us in the dark as to what powers everybody has.

I could've done without that. [ just. for the record. sounding annoyed. but: ] Some of these might not be usable as obvious curses, though.

Aaaaaaaaaah, why does this have to be so complicated!?

To piss us off, probably. Looks like it's working.

We can at least keep track of the obvious powers being used for now. Give us a baseline on what they could be capable of.

I've been wondering what's the upgrade with something like that, though. That changes your feelings.
[ he, uh. everyone thinks its very funny but it freaked him out more than anything ]
no subject
... You have a point. Is the focus of the power romance, or about emotions in general?

You notice anything else like that? I hadn't heard about that Daan and Geto thing.
