ღ think of the places you'll go

[So. In a word, this whole confrontation could very well be described as a travesty. Between finding out a good deal about Cyrus, which could be described as their objective, and finding out everything about Dawn, it's been generally bad. This day is honestly about as canceled as Sunyshore City itself, and considering the state of the city...well, that's pretty damn canceled.

The beach is probably the last place anyone really wants to go, considering the weather, but it's there and at the very least, it's quiet. It's not much of a party, all considered, but at least they're not all cramped in the lighthouse. For whatever it's worth.

May as well rest before they go in another direction tomorrow; everyone's liable to be weary after today.]

[He just kind of laughs a bit at that, briefly.]

No, trust me, I have had more goddamn hope and friendship and understanding thrown in my fucking face than I know what to do with. Everybody's kind of a bit much with that? Almost makes me grateful that Team Galactic's apparently full of sad, broken people - we can just let everyone upset them into submission.

Oh, they really are; you'll receive little disagreement there. But you're likewise deserving of such things, you know, and I suppose excess is sometimes the only way that gets through!

[She looks back at him, chuckling a little more freely. It's actually nice, being out of her head like this, and kind of just...realizing that no, the dastard was wrong about this shit.

...Gods, the rest of those Galactics though...]

...Gods, we really do have a good track record with that, don't we? I suppose if the method itself isn't broken, then it doesn't require fixing; it's allowed us to survive thus far. There's certainly merit in it, though with Jupiter and Mars possibly incoming...

[just. vaguely gestures. those two are gonna be disasters.]

[...you know, it's easier to focus on the other insane people than it is to wonder about whether he deserves this sort of shit or not, so. talking shit about team galactic it is.]

Ah, yeah. Party Girl and Cyrus' Number One Girlfriend. That's gonna be a shitshow.

[Yeah, he's got nothing.]

Hopefully they don't have those chains in 'em, that's just going to send everything straight to hell. Especially if they can summon God? We need exactly neither of those idiots summoning God.

Oh, one of them's liable to. There are two of those deities, after all; knowing the two of them, they're liable to lead the conversation with it.

[Someone is gonna set god on our asses and it's gonna be a goddamn shitshow.]

...Unless that chain takes away some of their aggression, but really, considering Saturn, something like that working to our benefit is close to an impossibility. [She shakes her head.] It would be quite nice if we could avoid them summoning the gods forsaken thing, however. At least we know better than to issue a challenge.

So which moron do you think has it? If you had to pick.

[His money's kind of on Mars?]

...I'd rather it not be Mars, since I'd like to make good on some of the stuff I said to her? That being said, it's in line with what she would do; she'd jump at any opportunity for her precious Master Cyrus.

[That is said in the most babying sarcastic tone she can goddamn manage.]

That, and she's not liable to break down as easily as the others. She loves him far too much to even consider such a thing.

...All this time and I still find Jupiter less crazy than the other two. Or at least she's a crazy I can understand - she's kinda crazy like I'm crazy, you know?

Oh, no, I truly agree with you. She's an individual who's only in this entire mess for herself; the things she wants are far easier to understand than attempting to wrap one's head around the charisma based hell that Saturn and Mars have been driven into.

[jupiter looked at an opportunity for power and went "it's free real estate", and you know what, she's a shithead but she's an understandable shithead.]

Well, at least we know she was totally right about one thing - it is definitely the charisma and not Cyrus' looks that have Saturn and Mars falling all over themselves.

[...JAKE, NO.]

[...JAKE.

Congratulations, she's just losing her shit over that, kind of doubling over and laughing really damn hard, thanks--]

Oh, absolutely! Really, he's someone who looks like he's only alive on a technicality. And that face of his? It looks like he took the idea of making a sour expression and getting it stuck on his face a challenge.

[SHE IS SO HERE FOR SHITTALKING THIS FUCKER]

[GOOD BECAUSE YOU DESERVE IT TBH]

God. Just answer "is he 25 or 50?" with "yes."

Edited 2018-10-14 08:56 (UTC)

Gods, he doesn't look like he's slept in years. Which is quite a feat considering how disastrous that hair of his looks. I bet he dyes his hair to hide all of the grays.

Fuckin' definitely.

[god.]

...It's gonna be okay, I think. When we eventually take him. I don't know what it was about today of all things, but even if it went like shit, I feel a lot less like it's gonna be impossible?

...No, I think I understand. It felt a little more...hopeful, I suppose one could say, despite everything. He could have very easily decided to wipe everything out when we encroached on his space again.

[...to say nothing of everything else...]

I almost dare say we've gained some semblance of respect from him. For whatever that's worth.

He did kind of acknowledge us at the end of all that, yeah...

[Mmmmmm, he doesn't like it.]

I don't know how good a thing that is - it pisses me off when the Galactic guys dismiss us, but I don't know if the whole worthy-adversary thing is something we want while he still outclasses us that badly.

[...That is actually a good point, all considered. She fucking hates it, but it is still a good one.]

...Neither do I, really. It's very possible that we've made a very large mistake. Even if we're disrupting his footholds, we in and of ourselves can't do much when the gods are brought out onto the field.

[...]

Do you think we'll truly be able to match them, if we stay our course?

[You know, he only really has one answer to give, and he hates it.]

No.

[He hates it, Camilla.]

We had no goddamn chance against Dialga. I can't even fucking...imagine what this creator they've got is going to be like.

[...Yeah, that's about her thought process regarding it; don't worry, she hates it too.

It gets some bitter laughter from her, and her gaze goes back out towards the sky.]

...I know. It's liable to be something more terrifying than anyone can imagine, and that...truly doesn't bode well for us.

So if we can't fight it, we work something else out. It's not like we've died yet, anyway.

...That is true. We've practically mastered the art of talking our way out of anything.

Let's simply hope it sees us through to the end, hm?
