"I have no intention of
getting friendly with you."

ookurikara
RULER'S CLASS
fragments ✦✧✧✧

[ kara makes a face. ]

The less time talking to him, the better. If he found out we did the ritual, he'd never let it go.

He seems like the type. [ ugh. ] Well it's not like doing it puts a giant sign over your head, so we'll probably be fine.

[ like he won't notice kara being a clingy binch lmao. ]

I wouldn't put it past them to do something weird to us and whoever we're strung to, though.

[ is this where we have to ping aki like btw they took the boat and kara was a clingy cat ]

The gods? Or the Kumous? Neither sounds like a great option.

[ what if we just didn't do that and they wouldn't be hounded for eternity ]

...Both, but I was talking about the gods. They've been messing with us every week, since this started, like it's just a game to them.

[ what we did but like late tomorrow so aki only has one day to cause chaos ]

Have you been getting messages from them? Other than the choices they've been annoyingly silent around me.

[ i think you underestimate how much chaos he can cause in a day but sure ]

No. But they gave Xie Lian a dream about the Maou, and Lan WangJi and Okuni have probably spoken to them somehow.

.... they’re really just out there doing whatever the fuck they want, huh?

Isn't that what gods always do?

[ kara you get a sort of half-arsed salute in response to that ]

Always.

C’mon. We’ll fling these stupid things in their offering box, and then even if I get nothing out of it it’s one less god thing for us to worry about.

[ with a nod: ]

Are you going to ask them for something, or just throw it in the box?

Dunno. Some kind of solution to all this? For them to back off and stop fucking around with people when they’re bored? I’m open to suggestions.

[ hey don't look at kara, he isn't the braincell in this red string ]</small Finding out what they expect us to do might be nice. Or why they told everyone to look for us.

[ bold of anyone to assume ash is either? ]

Probably a better starting point than I had. If they had a specific job for you, wouldn’t they have said already? [ that’s a lot of credit being given there ] It’d be a waste of their time and yours if they had a job for you and just forgot to tell you.

They didn't tell us about the red strings until this week.

[ just saying. ]

If they don't have some other trick up their sleeves for us, I'll be surprised.

[ look ]

Then what’d be the point of any of this if that’s true? Other than, y’know. Shits and giggles.

Well. Whatever bullshit they throw around, we’ll deal with it as it comes up. Sound fair?

[ shits and giggles sounds about right for the gods, but kara shrugs. ]

Fair enough. It's not like we really have another option, anyway.

Better than worrying yourself over it.

Maybe don’t just run up into the mountains this time though, if things do go south for some reason.

If it goes too badly, we might not have much of a choice but to leave. [ sigh. ] I hate waiting.

I know that. [ he’s kinda expecting it overall, if the worst comes to the worst. shame about his books, but there are people who’ll deal with them and take care of them. ] But the mountains is the most obvious place you could go, everyone knows you disappear up there when you’ve hit your limit with people.

[ ... he leans over and nudges him with his elbow. ] Yeah. It’ll be here sooner than we think though.

Yeah. If it comes to that, and we manage to get out alive, we'll probably have to leave Koun.

[ which. ookurikara really hates, thank you, but if that's their best option, he'll take it. he's not letting them do whatever they want with him, or his red string. ]

...But we'll figure that out when we get there.

[ yeah, he’d rather not, but? the alternative, if bad, ain’t an option. ]

Who knows, maybe they’ll surprise us and pick something nice.

[ giving him a Look. ]

Do you really believe that, after everything else they've done?

Gotta cling to a little optimism.

You know that's not a smart thing, for my other job.

[ the mercenary one, that is. he hasn't survived it because of optimism, you know? ]
