[her brow furrows as she considers that. she is 14 and what is this.]

I guess I'd... try to convince them to see things my way? I mean, maybe we can both achieve our goals if we work together?

[battling]

How would ya go about convicin' them? Their goals might be directly contradictin' yours.

[wtfox]

I guess that would depend on how exactly they contradict mine and what their goals were...? There's almost always some kind of compromise people can come to. That's what my mom does, she's a diplomat. She always says there's no problem you can't solve if you put your mind to it.

[He reaches down and grabs her chin between his thumb and a finger, peering into her eyes.]

Yer real young, ain't ya? Ya don't got a good grasp on your own limits. Better t' figure 'em out now, before you cross 'em and can't take them back.

[And then he lets her go.]

[wtfox]

[well that




was not what she was expecting at all. she sort of freezes up when he grabs her chin and stares back at him as he speaks.]

...are you going to tell me that wasn't advice again if I thank you for the advice?

[battling]

It ain't advice, 's just bein' practical.

[you dumb man, it is advice]

[wtfox]

Thanks for teaching me to be practical, then.

[battling]

Might come up some day.

[wtfox]

You're right that it might, but I really hope it doesn't...

[let's be real though this is a murdergame it totally will]

[battling]

Longer ya live, the more likely it will.

[He gives a shrug of his shoulders.

(we're in a murder game, it'll come up)]

[wtfox]

Ah... that makes sense.

[here's hoping she dies early so she doesn't have to deal with it!]

[battling]

[cheers]

Wanna try fillin' in that blank?

[wtfox]

Oh! Right, I almost forgot. Let me think...

[hmm... how would she fill in that blank...?]

I guess, um... are there any conflicts you're dealing with?

[battling]

We're stuck fightin' the moon every year. Ain't like all of us are enthusiastic about it.

[wtfox]

How do you fight the moon, exactly?

[battling]

[This is where the explanation would go if i had it.]

[wtfox]

[shakes fists at mobage]

Oh, wow... that sounds really rough.

[battling]

[where is the IMPORTANT LORE]

Lost about half the Sage's wizards this last Calamity.

[wtfox]

Oh no, that's really awful...

[battling]

It was way worse than the other ones I remember.

[wtfox]

Was there something that made it worse than the others? Maybe if you guys can figure out what it was, you can make sure it isn't as bad next year...?

[battling]

Think the big brother from the West did something weird with all his Great Calamity research. Not that we can get much out of him now, his soul's all shattered.

[wtfox]

...I know the individual meaning of all of those words but I don't know what they mean in context.

[battling]

There's a scholar from the west who used to study the moon.

After the last Great Calamity... That guy's whole soul shattered. Most of his memories and everythin' gone.

[wtfox]

He's an amnesiac now?
