no subject
I'm a Coordinator. I remain neutral in all conflicts, and I provide my services equally to everyone who can pay the price.
For someone like me, who cannot fight, it's a pretty convenient way to live, you know? Neither side can afford to harm me, and I come out on top regardless of who wins.
no subject
[ One that Ange is pretty sure Mitama has actually taken into account. The other girl is weird in a lot of ways, sure, but it's not like she's dumb. If she isn't mentioning this part of it, then it's purposeful in some way. ]
This isn't just about different sides wanting different options. There's a chance that, no matter which option we pick, we're all done for anyway. That we'll all be deleted by this place, or killed, or whatever exactly it does.
Then there's no coming out on top.
cw: thinly veiled suicidal tendencies
Not unless you consider that to be a victory, too.
[ A magical girl getting killed before she turns into a Witch is a mercy few are granted, and while Mitama doesn't care strongly either way what her end will be, she doesn't mind it happening. ]
cw: thinly veiled suicidal tendencies
[ The answer is a little surprising.
And yet - it doesn't entirely faze Ange either. It mirrors some of her own thoughts pretty perfectly, after all. All considerations she has made herself. ]
There's also the possibility to be trapped into some terrible inbetween state forever. Not living, but never getting rest either. Tortured for the rest of eternity. Would you put it past this place?
