[gm card room - lily]

[crittersheep]

[You find yourselves seated around a table in the middle of a small room. You can’t really perceive any walls, just heavy black velvet curtains on all sides. If you push them aside looking for a way out, you just keep finding more curtains behind them.

There is a crystal ball in the middle of the table and a spread of six large cards arranged around it, currently facedown. Their backs are a plain matte black.

You are aware that powers are all off for card rounds but will be on for the punishment round. You have whatever items are normally on your person.]

I know. I know none of us want that.

[what if we can all just hug the rest of the ritual and have nothing bad happen]

Since we don't have an option to protect ourselves here, doing the next best thing by giving ourselves a guarantee of healing is fine by me. I'll do whatever I have to for that.

[ we can dream ]

Thanks for having our back, even if we have to play a little dirty for it. I wish we didn't have to worry about it at all, but...you know.

I'll always have your back. If you wanted to play the highest point cards we've got every round, I'd support it. It's like you said: Lily is the only ones who will look after Lily. So we just have to do what's best for us, no matter what that looks like. It'd be a little extreme if you tried to end the world or something, but anything else is fair game.

I'm real glad we've got you. And if I ever do try to end the world, I'm counting on you to stop me.

[stops covering his ears so he can hug him again. very seriously,]

If you had a good reason for ending the world I wouldn't stop you. But there usually isn't a good enough reason to justify that, so you can count on me to knock some sense into you if it comes up.

[ laughs weakly ]

If I did have a good reason, I'd get you guys on board first anyway.

[god. contemplates this very seriously. he's legit thinking about this]

We'd probably have to talk a lot about it. I don't know if I can get on board with ending the world as we are now. It's not very practical when we all live in the world.
