The City of the Specter, Atem's Palace

[metagame]

The corpse sinks to the floor
Even the brightest gold, even the sharpest blade
Becomes sand, becomes dust

[HOW IS THAT MORE HONORABLE THAN BLASTING FROM THE GETGO, ARGENTI]

...Of course. Violence is always the answer.

[beautifulknight]

[ IT'S SUPER HONORABLE NOW BECAUSE IT'S LATER- ]

...Always? I should hope it is not. But in such a case where our lives are at risk, I would agree that it would be the answer.

[ Argenti will not hesitate to resort to violence when needed but he prefers to actually solve it by being non-violent. ]

[townmusician]

I mean in these palaces! Everyone always jumps to beating the hell out of everything...

[Which. He guesses their lives are always at risk in these... so maybe Argenti has a point? But he doesn't want to admit that, so he won't.]

[beautifulknight]

Hm? Oh!

I suppose it also depends even here, as there are usually enemies available to beat upon in palaces like these. So it isn't entirely surprising to see everyone go on the attack.

Yet, in the end, I can only hope we are able to resolve it all as peaceful as possible...even while knowing we will inevitably fight for our lives, and solve it all in a most beautiful as well as heartwarming fashion!

[ Argenti says firmly, the b word slipping into there, almost like he's really about to start Yapping. ]

[bro now is not the time for a sermon]

...Right. Heartwarming. I'll just think heartwarming thoughts while everyone gets the shit kicked out of them.

[prozaic]

That's a surprising sentiment, coming from you.

[townmusician]

Is it really that surprising?

[prozaic]

Yes. You're not truly the bloodthirsty type, are you?

[townmusician]

...Heh. I might not be from a place that's as dangerous as the homes a lot of people here are from, but that doesn't mean I'm a good person, either.

[He's a BAD BITCH who CRIES ALL THE TIME so you can totally trust this.]

[prozaic]

[Shalem just gives him a look, complete with a raised eyebrow. Somehow he doesn't believe that Haruka is as tough as he presents himself.

SOMEHOW.]

[wow!!! he can be hardcore!!!! but it's not like he's going to fight about whether or not he's a bad person because that's fucking cringe, so he's just going to busy himself looking around the room and trying to find his cat (soujuurou).]
