dunno. these guys don't really seem like they give a shit about "crime," but maybe they'd take it more seriously if people gave breaking out a shot and really busted up the place.
all i'm saying is if someone wants to mastermind a jailbreak we gotta have a lot more information than we do now.
True! Unlike you and your grandmother, they don't care about following the law here, since I can already think of 25 different things I'd like to sue them over!
I know others who can do magic, but I'm not sure who else has been using it to figure out how the place runs. So until we find another helper, I guess we'll have to keep relying on that same person I mentioned. I'll make sure to tell him that everyone's counting on him!
That's the funny thing. He said he didn't exactly care to. But he also said he likes practicing his magic and learning new things with it.
Which sounds like a lot of effort for little gain, if you ask me. But I guess it's sort of like being a detective. Some detectives have personal motivations, like "justice" or "revenge," while others simply love to solve a good mystery.
what's important is whether he'll be reliable, when it comes down to it. like i said, there are already people who want to stay. they'll be against it, if your plan is to shut this place down or deal a big blow to it.
Fine, maybe we don't have to blow up the whole place! We could just make it so that everyone who wants to leave can leave!
Though is there any rule saying you have to go home to your *own* world? If we shut the place down, perhaps those who don't have a good home to go back to can hitch a ride with someone who does! That's where all these "intimate connections" we've forged could come in handy.
I wouldn't mind letting people come back to my world. They could get jobs, rent apartments, buy my CDs and go to my concerts! Or hop on a plane and fly elsewhere! Whichever!
Yep, on second thought, getting rid of this place is just fine~
[ Well, he can see why Tomoe sticks to the idol thing and not the military strategist thing. ]
dunno if there's a rule for it. all i'm saying is you better keep your magic guy on your side. it would suck if he jumps ship because he decided he likes this place better.
I know it's not the kind of intimacy they're looking for, but I think friendships can be just as "fate-changing" as that other sort of bond. In fact, I know so!
The same goes for family, partnerships, and so on. Their view of intimate connections is too narrow if you ask me.
[He just doesn't realize Esikko is one of them. He can sense a buried spitefulness, one that reminds him of a certain "friend" back home. But as far as he knows, the most dangerous thing about Prince Esikko Blum Whatever is his willingness to hurt himself in pursuit of his own goals.]
The power of friendship alone won't save us. That can help heroes defeat villains in the movies, but it won't take care of everything in the real world.
Still, even if he decides something silly like "I don't need friends!", his love for magical research should help us through. He sounds like he'd rather do that than sit in the spa or gamble in the casino all day.
[ He's not wholly convinced—as far as he's concerned, Those Types seem prone to pushing boundaries in the name of knowledge—but he's fine with letting Tomoe handle that part of it for now. For however long his idolness is able to keep their objectives aligned, whether it's for the near or far future, it benefits them to have more people puzzling over the resort, not less. ]
well, as long as he's working with you now, there's no reason to cut him off.
[ He hadn't thought there would be actual affront here. If Tomoe wants more friends or whatever, he's sure there are plenty of friendly, thirsty people out there who would be more than happy. Why set his sights on some random burner account? ]
