[ she laughs. ]

Fair enough. But if one of the Avatars couldn't convince people to behave I don't have much hope for the future.

[shiftingwinds]

We should try to catch someone in the act and make them clean it up themselves. Maybe that way they'd learn their lesson!

[chevaleros]

[ she raises a brow, though she still looks amused. ]

A trap? I'd be all right with that, though you didn't strike me as a disciplinarian.

[shiftingwinds]

I'm not, generally, but they offended me when they put cheese all over the bar.

[chevaleros]

[ THE CHEESE. she looks... tired. ]

Ah, yes. We all have our limits. Once we're done cleaning, I would be happy to pour you a glass.

[shiftingwinds]

Oh, that would be nice! There's nothing like relaxing with a drink after a job well done.

[she'll even help her clean the kitchen



should we report this to the mods?]

[chevaleros]

[ thanks sqx, you have rights. ]

It's nice to reward oneself after working hard. And it's keeping to the spirit of this place to indulge a little.

[ she says, with a despair mark ]

[shiftingwinds]

That it is, that it is!

[she glances at vira's hand]

...you could probably pass yours off as drowning your sorrows over everyone making such a mess! That might count!

[chevaleros]

Oh... perhaps I could.

[ that's not a bad idea, and drinking should count for sqx too. she can appreciate the efficiency. ]

Though frankly, cleaning up after everyone felt despairing enough.

[shiftingwinds]

...it sort of feels like your group got the short end of the stick, you know.

[it seems kind of unfair.]

[chevaleros]

I'll admit I was a little confused at first.

[ not that she was classified in despair, but why one group felt less like an indulgence and more like a punishment. ]

But I believe it has its advantages as well.

[shiftingwinds]

Oh? How so?

[chevaleros]

There's ultimately no limit to suffering.

[ there's only so much one sex or food or drink people can enjoy. but when it comes to being miserable, it's just however much someone can stand. ]

And when one thinks about what makes them feel despair, the answers present themselves quite clearly. They aren't things that one forgets easily.

[shiftingwinds]

...still...

[that's so fucking depressing, what the fuck.]

[chevaleros]

We did all agree to come here, so it's nothing to trouble yourself over.

[ she doesn't seem to mind. it's not a disadvantageous indulgence, exactly. ]

Though that you'd be concerned is very kind.

[shiftingwinds]

We agreed to come here, but I don't think anyone wants to see a whole group of us be miserable the whole time.

[there has to be some way to indulge in that without being depressed......]

[chevaleros]

Ah, you overestimate the people here.

[ said dryly. she doubts that many people care. ]

Still, I do think it'd be nice to find a way around it, though I'm not sure it's possible.

[shiftingwinds]

Well... if you ever want to try, I'm glad to help! Even if it's just listening to ideas, or trying to come up with them.

The only way they definitely won't work is if we don't try them at all!

[chevaleros]

You'd do that for me? [ she looks a little puzzled by the offer, but ultimately smiles as she goes to brush up some broken glass from the arcade machine. terrible. ]

I think it'd be counter-productive to my sin, but you're right. The only way we'll know for sure is to try. ...Thank you.

[shiftingwinds]

[why would these heathens break games. what the fuck.]

If it does turn out to be counter-productive, we can try something else. ...I just don't think you should have to be miserable, even if your sin is Despair! I mean, I'm Gluttony, and I don't eat all the time.
