Behold the Fool of Owari, the Great Unifier of Japan, the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven.

and lmao well it turns out i didnt die in that fight with the dragon. u can file ur complaints with beowulf. gonna be out of commission for awhile but hey thats how shit goes i guess.

but aside from that, i wanna kno something. something thats sitting in my brain as we got a refugee crisis already forming on our hands and we pick through the rubble of a series of shitty decisions and maybe poor karma;

knowing what it is we are all here to do, do you still trust the people that run this Avalon, whether its Camelot or Celliwig or Whatever, to facilitate that task?

if i had told you about gotham you wouldn't even ask. we had an earthquake 6 years ago and the government declared us a lost cause. not hyperbole.

are you planning a coup? don't plan a coup.

[owarifool]

lmao im just asking!! my master would have my ears pinned if she caught me trying to make a go at conquering avalon.

[ichoosefight]

i notice you say "if she caught me"

[owarifool]

and this is a public post so obviously shed know, right?

see, i cover my bases. honest curiosity at work here, nothing more.

[ichoosefight]

you sound way too much like me sometimes.

there's so much corruption in gotham that it's more surprising when the leadership looks competent. what am i supposed to do? i help the people that i can.

[owarifool]

i kno u well enough to kno thats where ur ambition lies, and thats fair.

but harm reduction has never really been my style. when i saw around me a world that was choking itself, i turned my eye to the source of the problem; the power vacuum in the capital.

[ichoosefight]

and yet, government everywhere continues to be a mistake. what we need is a way to fix the stupid multiverse, not a better king.

don't stage a coup.

[owarifool]

u dont think the latter would help with the former?

[ichoosefight]

only if either king knew how the stupid calamity works

i have yet to see evidence that ANYBODY does.

[owarifool]

but the answers are out there. they have to be. but that burden is being placed on the shoulders of individual research.

merlin should have made it his full time job to look into this, and yet he had time to organize a hashtag campaign.

[ichoosefight]

how long did that actually take tho, 5 minutes?

I've worked in small groups all my life. you're supposed to have a government, infrastructure, a police force to take care of a city, a prison asylum that people don't escape from once a month. we had half a police force at best, and with 7 of us we kept people more or less safe.

less is more, is what i'm saying.

[owarifool]

so ur saying the status quo is fine?

[ichoosefight]

i'm saying that a coup wouldn't fix anything. it would be stupid. and if there are any more stupid, pointless deaths i'm going to start taking it out on other people instead of myself.

[owarifool]

i guess its good im not planning one then.

but this is an environment ripe for one, either way. and maybe its deserved.

[ichoosefight]

maybe.

maybe i need to punch someone in the face more than i need to sleep.

[owarifool]

given my reputation im probably not a good source for advice on healthy outlets of anger.

but okay, im gonna swear to you right here and now that i am not planning a coup. there is part of me that wants to, but i dont want to make people more miserable as a result, either.

[ichoosefight]

i believe you.

threatening violence just makes me feel better.

[owarifool]

guess theres a lack of outlets right now

if i were in better shape i could at least offer a match or two.

[ichoosefight]

it's ok. cassie is right, i need to catch up on sleep. i just hate feeling so useless.

[owarifool]

i could try singin u a lullaby?

[ichoosefight]

...

i think that would be weird

kinda romantic

[owarifool]

romance is the last thing i wanna talk about right now all things considered.

[ichoosefight]

you're the one offering to sing to me while I drift off to sleep dude

[owarifool]

in a platonic way! come on now, do u think i am even remotely in the mood for that kinda thing?!

[ichoosefight]

i'm just saying it would be uncomfortable. take a breath man
