[...

he sighs.]

No. Though this is a bit of a special case, anyway.

[frilly]

Are you planning to switch?

[selfimmolates]

No.

[for a moment, he's quiet, before he runs a hand through his hair, looking tired.]

Sorry. Senri actually told me your alignment, so I knew from the start.

[frilly]

Oh, are you friends with Senri-kun, too? I'm glad!

[ She likes Senri!!! ]

[selfimmolates]

... You really do roll with just about anything, don't you? You don't care that we've technically been talking about you behind your back?

[madoka is throwing him off so much!!]

[frilly]

It makes me feel a little bit self conscious... But I don't think Senri-kun would say anything mean. And it's normal to talk to people about the other people you know.

[selfimmolates]

... You're way too nice about this.

[aka he has no idea how to handle this, help.]

[frilly]

Maybe...

[ she has her reasons, but. also knows he's not wrong. ]

[selfimmolates]

[he just sighs. which he feels like he's doing a lot lately.]

Anyway, Senri and I are cooperating to try and find a less... bloodthirsty way to proceed in the competition. That's it.

[frilly]

[ poor Ray... ]

I may not have a lot to offer - but I'll help you however I can.

[selfimmolates]

People like you and will let their guard down around you. That's something.

[frilly]

Yes, I've noticed that.

[selfimmolates]

It's useful. Senri's the same way.

[frilly]

I haven't been asking many people, so I still might not know as much as Senri-kun does... But...

[ Madoka takes out her journal, and... Flips past her doodles of everyone from when she was memorizing their names, and past the witch and familiar doodles, to a page where she's written:

Senri - Beauty
Nonon - Love
Yu - Love
Hector - Ruin
Chuuya - Disorder → Sincerity
Takaomi - Merriment ]

[selfimmolates]

... And you're okay with just showing me this?

[frilly]

It's scary, but I won't get anywhere keeping it to myself. We're working together, right?

[selfimmolates]

Yeah... though I'm surprised you got Hector's. Ruin's not exactly a popular god right now.

[frilly]

He offered to heal my hand with Equivalent Exchange. Which... I think means he wasn't the one that hurt it in the first place.

[selfimmolates]

[everyone really does love madoka, don't they]

... Pretty nice of him. Not as cautious as I would've expected, based off what I know of him.

[frilly]

Do you know him very well? I've only talked to him a couple times... But it was really nice of him to offer - since it's dangerous...

[ which means. people aligned with Ruin are nice. ]

[selfimmolates]

We pointed a gun at each other when we first met.

[so yeah.]

[frilly]

You pointed a gun at me when we first met, too.

[ this sounds like more of a you problem. ]

[selfimmolates]

I never said I wasn't a dangerous person either.

[frilly]

[ why you gotta say things like this ]

[selfimmolates]

[because he's a pragmatic asshole.]

Incidentally, have you met Ruin?
