Forty Seventh Summons: Another Question

[miss_enma_ai]

 [She's been doing a lot of thinking lately. Never a good sign. After that talk with Japan though, she needed to. She goes to the phones.]

.....

How do you forgive people?

[Action: You can find Ai sitting on the steps of her house. She's just watching the street. And anyone who walks by. No this isn't creepy at all.....]

Good question. I have no friggin' clue either.

...Guess first you got to decide if they're even worth it.

[miss_enma_ai]

I do wonder why they always listen to the town.

[godisachild]

...I dunno.

Sometimes the town can be pretty convincing.

[miss_enma_ai]

For the people who first arrive here. But they should realize if they've been here for a while that you can never trust this place.

[godisachild]

It's not so much a case of trusting it to help. But I trust it'll punish us sometimes if we don't do what it wants.

And I'll do what I can to avoid punishment, thanks.

[miss_enma_ai]

How far would you go to avoid being punished?

[godisachild]

It depends on what the punishment is.

[And if the punishment would affect one of the few people he cares about here. He'll never get over the fact that his actions could've killed someone he cared about like he was shown during Christmas. Not that he'll discuss that.]

[miss_enma_ai]

But usually they don't tell us what it's going to be.

[godisachild]

....True.

I don't know. As far as I had to, then.

[miss_enma_ai]

I see.

[godisachild]

What? You got a problem with that?

[miss_enma_ai]

[A little confused. Did she sound like she did?]

No?

[godisachild]

[Don't worry, you didn't do anything. Pokey is just defensive and paranoid.]

Oh. Well. Good then.
