As if you aren't constantly willing to take it. [because yeah? he has realized if it's not him, it's gojou??? god maybe that's why he likes him so much. terrible.
except uh...uh? hm.]
...a deal? I recall no such thing. [it's hard to say if this is miles trying to get out of whatever he agreed to or if he genuinely doesn't remember because being vored by a furby does a lot to a person.]
If things didn't work out, you get to tell me "I told you so." If things did, you have to say "You're right, Gojou Satoru. I should have had faith. I am sorry for considering feeding you all to the monster. Forgive me."
[ That is definitely not what they agreed on. Gojou quietly changes it in hopes that Miles doesn't remember and cause he wants to play a bit. ]
That's not a good excuse! [and yet it's kind of the same excuse he has so whatever. nevertheless...
...this sounds fake. this sounds so fake? he knows himself, he knows there's no way he would agree to something specific like that, but...all the same, he actually can't be sure he didn't make a similar agreement.
so that's something.]
You were right, Gojou Satoru. I should have thought it through further, and I'm not apologizing for something I never entirely considered. ...though I do hope you can forgive some of the others.
[because at the end of the day miles is kind of soft and won't beg for forgiveness for himself but he'll ask it for people who matter, apparently.]
[ A reason they're both nailed to. Also, yeah, it's so fucking fake and Gojou made sure some parts of it was stupid and, of course, Miles changes it properly to be something more substantial. When will he just throw something at him... He waits for that day. ]
All about intention! [ He gives Miles that, then he shrugs. ] That part was a joke since what's there to forgive? It's nothing personal. I get it.
You'd be surprised how many people take things very personally. [the last week was an adventure, man.] Though I suppose if anyone were to understand our position it would be you. You have my thanks then.
...you haven't talked to Despair much, have you? [don't ask.] But I've never had plans for world domination, so your lack of judgment is also acceptable.
Nope! I was kind of suspicious of you all. The premise of this place was shady, even if your guys’ introduction was...
[ Snorts. He doesn’t need to continue that sentence. ]
Omi did go to his thingy when you all were eaten by the furby and told me about what he saw. By the sounds of it, there’s a crushing weight on Mister Despair’s shoulders.
[ Quietly, in a soft voice: ]
... He reminds me of the villain from 101 Dalmatians.
I refuse to be held accountable for the introduction as I wasn't a part of the group who went downstairs. [just saying! but he hums in thought at that.]
It's entirely possible. I've never fully asked. [...and then gojou says that and there's a surprised noise that's almost like a laugh.]
Please tell him that to his face before you leave.
It was like some cycle of sacrificing people for the world. First, it was to stop the apocalypse or something, then people had to sacrifice themselves so the world wasn’t so barren. A lot of sacrifice in there.
[ Yeets emet out because Gojou is like... Eh. They are probably never going to see each other. ]
You think he’d get the reference? Usually, I just crack things without thinking, but there’s no fun if people don’t get it.
[ His life here... At the station... With some of these oldes. ]
And a lot of people here don’t get it. Eleanor was my saving grace until she died.
That was the general impression I got from listening to others. What's one sacrifice for another, I suppose.
...unfortunately I don't believe he'd understand it. Emet-Selch hasn't exactly been open to learning about modern culture like some of the others are. But I'm sure you'd find amusement in it anyhow.
[i woke up and saw this at 5am and i had to close my laptop again. anyway, it takes a moment because miles is from the late 2020s and ergo knows what a boomer is.]
...in a way, yes. I do believe that's what I'm saying.
[ NOOOOOOOOOOOO THE IN-THREAD CONFIRMATION. Gojou at first smiles, letting it sink in... Just blinking a lot? And then the snickers come, the little laughs follow, and now he's cackling like a hyena to the point he might fall out of his seat.
Aww, I wanted to know how he reacted, but I can guess since we only have our imaginations.
[ Nanami's trademark sigh (Gojou has heard it too many times). ]
"Edgeworth-san, I implore you to never cross Mahito's path. We all have to choose our battles, but this one is unwinnable. A death sentence or, at the very least, a never-ending migraine."

The heart wants what it wants, right? I can't judge unless it's like... An evil wish or something. I don't know. World domination?

What a waaaaaste. He could have returned home as a hip grandpa, conquering the world with a snapback.
no subject
Could have, but that would imply that Emet-Selch is willing to learn from anyone else.
no subject
True. Anyway, I'll see if I can catch him tomorrow to tell him that. [ ... ] What were we initially talking about again? Wishes?
no subject
I think we were discussing how I was still correct about several things, actually. [shut up miles.]

It's not that hilarious of a notion. [god why does he like this man.] It was simply a thought after speaking with Nanami.
