[THIS IS AN INCREDIBLY SILLY POST FOR THREADING THINGS IN CECILIA'S REALM]

I do.

Did she run an encore?

[nods]

The cards were... much, much worse. And if you ended up below zero at the end...

[trails off, voice cracking slightly, as she looks away]

We were all fighting about who we could hit- the only cards we had left in our hand were mostly things like 'lose a limb' or 'slow kill'. We eventually threw a coin for Amalthea or Ometotchtli for a two-point 'physical deage'. It landed on Amalthea.

[technically magpie's glasses but that's like a coin]

And did ya have to play on Amalthea?

[have to have to.]

No. But we had to play something.

[. . . THIS FACE IS NOT REALLY A PLEASED FACE]

Then why Amalthea?

We had promises with Henwen and Tiamat. We had played on Vanara in the round before. Gulgallana had been our first idea for a target, but they had lost people and maimed and we were worried about putting them below zero. Same for Rataoskr. Dawon has people from Magpie and Gull's homes. Amalthea had someone else from Gull's world too. Epona and Alectryon had people from Roc's homeworld. Barghest looked to be in awful shape too, and Sparrow didn't want to play on Ometotchtli, but it was down to them or Amalthea.

We ran out of time and couldn't argue any more, so Magpie tossed the coin for it.

[. . . hmph. he leans back, hands linked behind his head]

I guess I ain't a good person. I would have put Gulgallana below zero before I would've hit an ally team.

... I'm not either. We did send Vanara below zero when we didn't have to.

I'm sorry. I told Rook already. And we're going to discuss our alliances for real now. We'll figure things out.

[lets out a breath]

I wasn't there, so I dunno how they reacted to it. I wouldn't have been happy-- I ain't too happy hearin' about it secondhand, either-- but if I ain't there to play, then I don't get much of a say.

[glancing over at her as he speaks]

I'd still protect Takshaka no matter what. It's the rest of Amalthea you're gonna have to answer to. . . not me.

... I know. But it wouldn't be fair to not tell you.

[he nods]

I like honesty. Makes it easier to trust a person.

[... despite herself, she does give a light laugh.]

Even honesty about this?

You could've just done it and never told me. Prob'ly never would've found out.
