.... but don't we have to be worried about that with everyone, not just the avatars?

Isn't that just.... life?

[mineo.]

[enfangs]

Yeah, but like I said, they're the ones with the most power here so far.

[sengokus]

... I guess.

So did you agree to be here just because you wanted something, but you didn't expect anyone to help you out along the way?

[enfangs]

Wasn't really thinking that hard about it, to be honest.

[sengokus]

[ . . . yeah. he's just gonna. flop on the couch too - over the top of it. they're just a flop party now.]

... me neither.

... you regret it?

[enfangs]

No. I wasn't expecting this to be all rainbows and sunshine anyway.

[sengokus]

[ . . . ]

Yeah.

Guess nothing in life comes easy, after all.

[enfangs]

[there's a low, brief laugh at that.]

Not a single damn thing, yeah.

[sengokus]

[ . . . depressing. and mineo sort of - sits in it for a second. because that's sloth, right? wallowing, letting it wash over him, like he's used to.

. . .

it's just.

it's hard, sitting in it with someone else.

so he blurts out:]

I'd still try to help you, though.

[enfangs]

[...

white just

blinks, going still.]

Um?

[sengokus]

... I'm just saying.

[mineo's still just. watching the ceiling before he shuts his eye.]

I don't have power like the avatars, so it's not like I can super fuck anything up, right?

[ . . . no, that's not correct.]

I mean, I still might [because he's clumsy and unskilled] but I'd try not to, at least.

[enfangs]

[he pointedly does not look at mineo.]

... You're going to burn yourself out fast if you keep making offers like this to everyone, y'know.

[sengokus]

... maybe.

[but it's just

hard to not want to try.

it's easy to let himself go, to be the one that's the disappointment and the dead weight - but watching other people struggle is what he can't stand.]

... but that sounds like my problem, not yours. I've got stamina, at least.

[enfangs]

[it's like he said before—he doesn't understand people like mineo.]

You're going to make it my problem if I trip over you lying in a pool of your own tears or whatever.

[1/2]

[sengokus]

I'll mop them up so you don't slip.

[sengokus]

[okay but seriously]

Why do you make me sound so uncool.... I was trying to do the whole mysterious and strong thing!

[like batman]

[enfangs]

[mineo wants to be diluc]

You're the one who was putting yourself down first, idiot.

[sengokus]

[kind of yea]

I can do both! Both! Like having layers!

[like shrek]

[enfangs]

Don't think that's what they mean by that.

[sengokus]

Well now it does. It counts, shut up!

[mineo please just stop talking]

[enfangs]

Sorry, but you're already wrecking that mysterious image!

[sengokus]

Shit. I-I don't know what you're talking about, it's not like you know anything about me!

[enfangs]

Doesn't that make everyone here mysterious, then? I don't know shit about any of you.

[sengokus]

Hm... Yeah, kind of?

But mystery is also a vibe...

[stop saying words]

[enfangs]

You really don't have that vibe, dude. Except for maybe the eyepatch.
