You think you can get away without fighting for real in this place?

[ he doesn't seem judgmental for once just. curious. ]

[aono]

I dunno, but it's worth trying until we find out we can't? I don't wanna be the one that starts a fight.

[skyagain]

Pretty sure we're in one already. Just... not against each other yet.

[aono]

[I'm going to say he's smart enough to get what Cloud is implying.]

That's a little different than a fight to the death though.

[skyagain]

I wouldn't count that out as an option so soon. Can't think of how else we're meant to entertain.

[aono]

One time I melted an ice sculpture into a puddle in about 10 seconds and that was pretty entertaining. Maybe it'll be stupid shit like that.

[skyagain]

[


stares ]

[aono]

[He feels the judgement.]

I promise it was for a good reason.

[skyagain]

I don't care about you melting an ice statue.

[ but he has concerns for rins braincells ]

[aono]

If you're worried about me burning down the hotel, then it's fine. I don't even have my fire here, and I choose what I burn and what I don't burn.

[That probably doesn't sound much better, but.]

[skyagain]

Somehow, I wasn't worried about that until you tried to convince me otherwise.

[aono]

[Oh no.]

No really, it's one of my powers! I can make fire, but it doesn't burn stuff unless I want it to burn stuff.

[skyagain]

That's just called aiming.

[aono]

No not like that! I mean I could put fire on you but it wouldn't burn you, it would just be there.

[skyagain]

So... you'd still have the light and the warmth, but nothing else?

[aono]

Yeah! It's pretty cool actually, I'll show you when I get my fire back.

[skyagain]

You sound pretty sure you'll get it back.

[aono]

It came back before, so it'll come back again.

[skyagain]

How'd you get it back the first time?

[aono]

I made friends with one of the Watchers and she gave it back to me.

[skyagain]

[ well. that is straightforward. ]

That your plan for this one, too?

[aono]

If you're nice to people then it's a lot easier to cooperate and work together. But I guess it depends on if whoever is in charge here wants to work with us or against us. I might've just been lucky before, because the Watchers really did want to help us as much as they could.

[skyagain]

Maybe. You won't know until they show up. It could be there's whoever brought us here, and then whoever's stuck doing their dirty work.

[ which is like. redacted's plot. and why he is saying it. ]

[aono]

If someone is stuck doing the dirty work then I bet they'll like working with someone who wants to help them not do the dirty work.

[skyagain]

... Depends how obnoxious you are about it, probably.

[ this is a joke. it's just hard to tell because he is an ass. ]
