week two - saturday post-trial - luna

[arockstar]

[It takes Newt a little while to find Luna, largely because he's not expecting to find her in the study of all places. But, eventually, he wanders in and finds her poking through the bookshelves.]

I'm assuming you're still cursed, huh?

[This Madoka thing can't be anything but that.]

[He is so relieved to hear that, Luna.]

Man, you know what? That's exactly what's been bugging me about that attitude. It's not like all the gods except one are getting demoted at the end of this. You need all of them to make a new world.

[By his understanding, anyway. It's never really mattered that much to him for that reason, who wins this contest.]

And what, in your opinion, is the best possible outcome?

[She's here to help and dish the real tea. :)]

Perhaps the new leader will have more influence than the others -- but there is no guarantee that they will abide by their principles when they gain power, and all we have is their word, while we are here. Of course, as you said, all of them will eventually influence the world.

May it turn out better than this one.

[The current one, in the game, she means. That's probably about as far as she's going to involve herself in the creation of the world. It just isn't as much of a priority right now.]

... The best possible outcome is one in which as many of us get our wishes as possible, with as few sacrifices as possible. Of course. But the possibility is remote. I would settle for being able to get my own wish, and reducing the number of casualties.
