...yeah, I can bring it to Fox, see what they say. [on Sunday or Monday, though, since. timing. I'm not subjecting the mods to a pretrial PC after execution.]
Although, it sounds to me like I being a requirement is a load of nonsense. It might be because they'll close it on purpose if they're bored or whatever, but - if they were bored of what happened when people weren't dying before, then clearly the door didn't close back then. It can stay open without the deaths, they just don't want it to.
[it isn't a case of that being the only way to keep it open by its design; it's a deliberate choice. so. that makes him madder.]
We need to figure out a way back but we also need to find a way to make sure they don't drag other people in for "another round" once we're gone.
I know my world would be fine without me, so it sounds ridiculous.
[ which is... also why he's like whatever about that. It being changed despite him, a nobody (he's just a guy), being erased is a bigger threat. Changed to be similar to here? also not good if it's a game board. ]
It's all right. I think we should focus on what could possibly happen tonight, instead... Then when things settle, as long as one of us is still around, then the information can pass on.
[ Spread, or whatever. Lillium is more pragmatic, caring less about the semantics, even though he thinks it is worse if it is just for entertainment. ]
Requirement or choice, we don't have control over that. At least not right now. What we have dealt to us are risks and threats to juggle. [ ... ] Is it me or do these notes read differently?
You seem very decisive about that. [ to lillium, and he takes his phone back to pocket it. ] The thing I want to know is if it's a real physical door. If it is, where is it? Can't we just open and close it ourselves? How many rounds has this happened? There's too many questions about it that we have no context for.
[ that is the annoying part. ]
The notes are different. I don't know if they were both written by the same person or what, but the contents don't exactly match. I don't think it's wrong to take both of them seriously, at least, until we know how true it is. [ he makes a face at the mention of thursday night though but he does not voice it. ]
[what's it like to know your world would be 100% fine without you... will's brow furrows a little, but he unfortunately does not know lillium well enough to be able to effectively protest it (even though he clearly looks like he wants to).]
...yeah. If even one of them turns out to be true, then acting like it's not is just going to come back to bite us in the end.
[although he, personally, is hoping that it turns out to be just a load of bs and everything will be fine.
I wasn't looking to do good in the world or kickstart big change. I'm just a drifter making sure I make enough to survive and live peacefully. Demiflora die and disappear every day—no difference if I was one of them.
[ Lillium sees himself as just a guy, no different from other demiflora back at home. Nothing grand, not seeking anything grand—he just wants a mundane life.
So that's his card for both demigods who apparently took part in a war and stopped it to accept his opinion. It really is clam it energy. ]
This doesn't mean I'm okay with dying, for the record.
[ Just so they know he isn't some self-sacrificial idiot. The physical or metaphorical door question has him scrunch his nose because wouldn't it be so funny??? If they could just keep the door open?? Physically? ]
Let's see if talking to the team leads take us anywhere, then. If it's nowhere, then at least we know that... And see if we can get more of those notes to see the bigger picture.
I can't think of that many people who are. [ okay with dying, he means. there are definitely some, and nico himself in his darkest moments has maybe thought about that himself, but that's neither here nor there. now, he doubts any of them are okay with dying because someone else's hand forced them here. that's the real issue. he will not argue about lillium's importance to his own world though.
much. ]
Even if you aren't looking to do good, there have to be people you want to get back to. Consider that motivation enough. [ there's a nod though. ] We can always regroup again once more of us are aware and have touched base with the leaders. If they don't have any ideas themselves, we'll just take matters into our own hands. No big deal.
[THE WAY I READ NICO'S COMMENT AS BEING IN RESPONSE TO TRYING TO DO GOOD OR KICKSTART A BIG CHANGE AND WAS LIKE WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T THINK OF MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE? and then i kept reading.]
I would think most people have motivation to try to get back.
[EXCEPT FOR ARGALIA APPARENTLY, WHO JUST WOKE UP AND DECIDED HE WANTED TO CAUSE PROBLEMS TODAY. but will doesn't know about that yet.]
So figuring out whatever these notes actually mean - that's a start for that. I agree we can regroup once we figure out what the leaders do and don't know.
