What happened?
no subject
ash just holds up three fingers. ]
Three people out there are Maou now. Dunno who. And someone I've got lumbered with some crap about "maintaining balance" while the world slowly goes to shit around us. Whatever that means, and however that's gonna play out.
[ so, if there's a tsunami or something in a couple of days, it's probably gonna be his fault. ]

[ He waves a hand. ]
Making a choice and shit happens. You been feeling like your abilities are better than before? Like your sense of taste sharper, or knife skills a bit quicker?
no subject
I can't control my strength as well as usual.
[ he broke a pot. ]
no subject
That sounds like a you issue.
[ kara... ]
It's a good option, apparently. Imagine if I'd picked something that was supposed to be negative.
no subject
So, what? You have no control over it?
no subject
Picking one of the four options is all I have control over. No one idea what they do until I've picked one and it's too late to back out.
no subject
The gods never did care what we want.
no subject
I know that much. Wonder why they decided to start sticking their noses in now?
no subject
no subject
[ people like them are the favoured targets, isn't that how it works? ]
no subject
I'm involved whether I want to be or not. I'm one of the Maou.
no subject
Someone in that damn pantheon of gods is having a great time with this shit. What kind of bullshit are you being armlocked into doing?
no subject
I'm supposed to be able to provide calm for people if they're distraught, or something.
no subject
ash just looks away for a moment. it's fine. he's fine. he's not hiding a grin. when he looks back though, his face just pretty schooled into just an amused expression rather than outrightly laughing at him. he leans forwards onto the counter, arms folded. ]
I'm very distraught about my fate and role in this whole mess, y'know. How're you gonna go about calming my poor ol' soul?
[ he does not sound half as distraught as he seems to be making himself out to be, clearly. ]
no subject
You'll live.
no subject
Not really fulfilling that role of yours, huh? [ but before kara goes off to brood moodily at a wall or whatever it is he does when he's lowkey to highkey annoyed by life, the universe and ash -- ]
But seriously, how does this all interconnect? It's one thing if I pick something that fucks shit up for people generally for a bit, but it's a whole other deal if I pick something that specifically fucks you over.
no subject
[ once he finds the sake, he fishes out two cups and heads back to the counter, only pouring one for himself since ash is busy being a little shit. ]
Whatever happens isn't your fault if you don't know what you're picking before you do it. We'll deal with it as it happens.
no subject
You say that now, but it'll be a pain in the ass if I pick something like "everyone loses all their dexterity". I don't even have an idea of what kind of good or bad they can actually pull with these options.
[ hmm. ]
You gonna lay low then? Try and stick it out without getting stuck right in the middle of it all?
no subject
[ that said, he nods. ]
There's no reason to come forward about it yet when we don't know how the people here will react to it.
[ he's not painting a target on his back for the sake of being honest with people he doesn't even know. ]
no subject
[ even more tiring than before. ]
Mm. Makes it easier, huh? It's not like I've been running around with a sign advertising the crap I've gotta do either.
no subject
[ simple as that. ]
At least they aren't out looking for you. [ annoying! ] ...But I won't tell anyone you're involved.
no subject
[ Idiots, but predictable ones. ]
You think they have ways of narrowing it down? [ Because... well. Silence is golden, but if they have people out there with Maou seeking abilities or something that makes it tougher. ] Same. It's a giant pain, and I've got no interest in making it easier for them to start demanding shit from you.
no subject
he'll focus on the more important thing, then. ]
Someone probably has a way to find the Maou, at least, but I don't know who, or how. Maybe it's pure luck, like your powers. We have no way of knowing for sure unless someone speaks up.
