Who: Aries and u
Where: the lobby
When: day 61 morning

[are you ready for another deliberately boring wild city live? ah yea you are!! gotta get them points!!!

Aries is hanging out in the lobby brushing his hair on camera. that's it, yep

He's blind, though it's probably hard to notice, honestly, but if you approach him he'll tilt his head to track the sound of your steps, not turn toward you]

I want to keep you guys safe too though.

[forthetainted]

...protecting your team isn't the popular move around here.

[shutthefoxup]

[Shrugs, reaching over to pluck at Aries' sleeve]

True...we're never going to be "popular" though, I think. So, PR doesn't really matter. You guys are earning all your own points too... And Aries and Whisky and Haruto are all stronger than I am. This game just kind of drives that home even more. So what can I do to actually be of any help to you guys?

[forthetainted]

[thinks seriously for a moment, going quiet then]

...'PR'... does matter. But not for what you wanted to do with it, I don't think. You're right, no matter how nice you are, no one is ever going to feel bad about what happens to wild city.

We don't need to 'look good' to everyone, but we do need allies.

[Grumbles into Aries' shoulder]

[forthetainted]

[...reaching up to gently pull on some of his hair..?]

We were thinking about Alcheme. But I don't really know any of them.

[shutthefoxup]

Ah! B and C are great. E has been really cool the times I've talked to him. I'm on the fence about H and A. The other ones I don't know much about. Also, F is the rabbit, I think? Oh, X is really...earnest.

[forthetainted]

There's a rabbit...?

[shutthefoxup]

Yeah, I don't know why or when, but there's a rabbit.

[forthetainted]

Okay...

Do you think they'd be interested?

[shutthefoxup]

Most of them, for sure.

[forthetainted]

Is C their leader?

[shutthefoxup]

I don't think they have a leader...

[forthetainted]

Huh... weird considering how C apparently wants to boss everyone around...

[shutthefoxup]

Well, he's mine and Gold's boss.

[forthetainted]

That's what I mean. He likes being 'the boss' but his team doesn't want to follow him..?

[shutthefoxup]

Ah, you might want to ask him about that. There's a very simple, one letter answer to that.

[forthetainted]

How about if I just ask you?

[shutthefoxup]

From what I can tell, A and him don't get along.

[forthetainted]

So if that guy wasn't around, you think he'd be the leader?

[shutthefoxup]

[Considers..............]

Yeah.

[forthetainted]

It sounds like they're more divided than I thought... I wonder if they'd all be able to agree to an alliance.

[shutthefoxup]

I'm pretty sure they could. It's something that benefits all of them. If you want, I could come with.

[forthetainted]

I think I'll talk to C first... but depending on how that goes...

Do you really think it benefits them, though? We don't have much to offer, and we don't have many fans.

[shutthefoxup]

We're "unpredictable" so it might give them a peace of mind. Just look at their powerset.
