[To say that Aunamee has been out of sorts lately is putting it mildly. He's tired. Frayed. When he closes his eyes, everything in the world feels misaligned.]

Oh? Is he gloating because our world nearly crumbled?

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

he hates the fog
she's not nearly as bad as usual this month
as far as i can tell at least
and i mean
weren't you all sacrificing things?
it all got spit back up too
so it seems like she was lying about that

you're mommy's favorite
have you heard from her lately?
because i've been able to talk to elias at least

[A very long pause.]

Do you think it's wise to goad me on, dear Makoto? Does Elias think it's wise?

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

probably not
and no
but i want you to feel miserable
i hope you ARE miserable

Now that we're on opposite sides of a war, dear Makoto, your hatred of me feels more appropriate. It's earned.

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

i'm still not participating in the war
i have my reasons
but also i'm pretty sure that regular people have a reason to hate you too
you're a terrible person
sooooooooo
people are allowed to have bad opinions of you and not be involved with the gods
and i'd still say that's earned

You've allowed yourself to become Elias' foot soldier. That's why I reacted so strongly to you when we last met.

Can't you see, Makoto? He cannot move his body, and so he uses pawns. Like you.

What happened to talking to someone???
Since when is murder just reacting strongly????
Are you just calling it that to make you feel better for killing me or something?

Do you trust the words that I say, dear Makoto?

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

i trust that you think the words you're saying make total sense
but that doesn't make them actually trustworthy
and you're totally ignoring all of my questions
