[ Hm.

Oh. ]

Sorry I asked.

[ That's fair, actually. Wolfwood kinda understands... ]

[ohthehumanities]

No, it's alright. I didn't mean to bring the mood down. [He hates making things awkward and yet he does it so often. Rip.]

[crucifer]

Nah, you didn't. I could use some work on my social skills lately anyway.

[ Honestly. ]

Lots of teenagers, at any rate. Feelin' like we're gonna get sick of hearing complaints.

[ohthehumanities]

[Damn, relatable.

He smiles a little, though.]

Well, maybe the situation will put things into perspective for them eventually.

[crucifer]

[ Hmm... ]

Not exactly the friendliest way to shove some birds out of their nest.

[ohthehumanities]

...No, it isn't. [...] I don't like to think of what might have happened in their lives, for so many young people to have died.

[If only Kaveh knew the other age ranges for mgs]

[crucifer]

[ To be fair the age range isn't usually as bad as having two twelve year olds. However, minors at a drinking party in superhell was a totally different thing. ]

Young people die all the time. [ Unfortunately, it's a truth where Wolfwood's from. ] Could've spared them from havin' to go up against adults for a reaping game, though.

[ohthehumanities]

[If you're old enough to be a protag you're old enough to do crimes]

I know. [Quietly. It's better in Sumeru--well, in the city, that is--than it is elsewhere, he knows, but Kaveh is fully aware of the reality of suffering.] But I agree. I'd like to keep an eye on them regardless of what happens with these teams we're meant to be forming, but I'm not sure how feasible that will be.

[Especially after the NPCs show up on Sunday and say "die"]

[crucifer]

...You also bankin' on the idea that there can be more than one winning team?

[ Since a few people have posited that to him. ]

[ohthehumanities]

I would love to think that. [His tone is tired, though.] But I've known very few competitions that allow for multiple winners.

[crucifer]

Mm.

[ So they have the same mindset then. The it'd be nice, but our expectations are basically zero squad. ]

Guess it's worth trying.

[ohthehumanities]

[Yeah. Kaveh's an idealist, more or less, but he's been crushed by reality too many times to be naive about it.

He nods.]

I'll do what I can, either way.

[crucifer]

[ Damn you were an idealist? ]

Well, if we figure out any positive solutions or trails, maybe we can share.

[ohthehumanities]

[(thinking)

That perks him up a little, though, he nods.]

Yes, please do. I'll do the same.

[crucifer]

Great. The more people with the same mindset, the better.

[ Oh yea ]

Nicholas D. Wolfwood, at your service. If we wanna come back to this again sometime.

[ohthehumanities]

Ah--yes, nice to meet you. I'm Kaveh.

[GREAT TALK TEAM]

[crucifer]

Great. I'll be seeing you around, probably.

Try not to run into things.

[ He didn't run into Wolfwood but! It's probably just kind of bullying for almost doing so earlier, it's fine... ]
