Apparently, a lot of hugs, the most hugs and the most huggers, along with the longest hugs. That sort of foolishness.

So, yes. It goes from the grim and horrifically morbid, to war to puppies and kittens we're supposed to pet for the emotions. I prefer fighting.

Audio

[mcfussyfangs]

Well. That's something, I suppose. Though what it is, I cannot rightly say.

I suppose that dealing with my own feelings when it comes to certain tender things, puppies and kittens and so on, is not something I would be inclined to do for the amusement of others. I have not been privy to any fighting here, however. Murder aside.

The murders...

Yes, those have been an unquestionable issue. However, they appear to be singular in nature. The conflict and strife itself will be back soon enough most likely.

[mcfussyfangs]

I cannot say that the idea of conflict and strife does not worry me, but I suppose that the game and our lives previous to this have more than prepared us to mentally and physically deal with the reality of conflict.

I am not looking forward to it, still.

You were never the most violent of our number. Capable when called, but you carry too much matronly tendencies. Admittedly, it's to be expected I would imagine, given your bloodline and role.

Regardless, there are logistical options available if you're willing to help there.

[mcfussyfangs]

Oh. No no, you mistake me. I am not worried for myself or for anything I will need to do. I may have chosen a path in life less filled with needless violence and betrayals, but that does not mean that I am unaware of them or unwilling to deal with them. I was close friends with Vriska and Eridan once upon a time.

I am more concerned for the other individuals here, humans and so on.

Re: Audio

Very well. I would not question your capacities. I simply have little experience in actually seeing you fight. However, you are correct. There are an alarming number of unprepared non-combatants. Regardless, we and they have options.

Mostly it is a messy and carnage-ridden affair due to the Kind Abstratus allocated to my Strife Specibus. I've since become accustomed to it though.

Still, I would not mind helping said non-combatants, regardless of my opinions of the gods.

Re: Audio

[alternia_strength]

You do have a certain point. Your Specibus was not exactly designed for its subtlety when it was fully active, was it? I don't even know that I actually ever saw you utilize it, though I seem to recall seeing it once or twice.

Perhaps, though, defending them would be a suitable use of your talents? You seem to be leaning that direction.

Audio

[mcfussyfangs]

No, it isn't It's still rather convenient though. The mass of most Kind Abstratuses is inconvenient. Mines folds in on itself, so it's easy to store despite the weight.

Possibly. I feel that here I would mostly be defending them from these gods and each other, and while I do not doubt my ability to do the letter, I feel I would be ineffective in doing the former.

Re: Audio

[alternia_strength]

Outside of their curses, there is little to defend, at least for now. There has been increased difficulties with one of their rank going insane. However, that seems to be more of a temporary concern. Regardless, as you imply, it is not exactly a simple matter to defend against something that qualifies as a god mode.

But, do not allow your confidence to flag, Kanaya. It is unseemly.
