It doesn't sound like it's about doing great things or not. It sounds to me like those who have a higher potential for... changes? Connections? Opportunity? Just from my understanding of magic involved in similar concepts, anyway.
Keeping that in mind, it makes more sense why someone like you would still be here. It doesn't matter how much you try to fight it, or what sort of things you do or don't do— it matters that others are going to meet you here, perhaps?
Sex does seem to be the main catalyst for transferring energy, though, so I'm still trying to think through it. Well, for now, I feel like we at least have a direction.
So, basically what you're saying is that I might be getting enough energy from meeting new people to compensate for the lack of game-playing. An interesting theory!
I can see that. I *am* pretty sociable. I guess it just felt like, by this place's standards, me and Jun-kun are freeloaders who refuse to pay rent. The landlord comes knocking each month, but we always say "Nope! Not paying!" and slam the door in his face.
Or at least I think that's how it works. I don't know much about rent payment since I'm a noble.
In any case, what's this direction you're talking about? Already planning to do some more digging?
Of course. To be perfectly honest, I don't exactly care to get back "home". But that doesn't mean I can't recognize that others certainly want to, and the path to the way "out" leads to many other interesting things along the way.
I get to practice my magic, I get to learn things.
Anyway, knowing how the House works also means I know how to start looking at it. Like how knowing if your patient was a human or a dog would help you in surgery.
[Alright. Well. There's something he hadn't really considered.
I don't care to go back home, says the prince. It's not really a surprise, given what his life was like. Kirma told Hiyori something similar, actually. Still, going to all this effort to figure a way out when he doesn't intend to use it himself strikes Hiyori as a bit odd.
But then this is the same "selfless flower-maker" who messaged him over the Network. The one he didn't connect to the prince he met at the Roost at first. So maybe he shouldn't be surprised about this, either. Getting to use magic is its own reward, apparently.]
Well, I'm glad you're getting something out of it, anyway.
I guess the only question is whether you can perform surgery on a god or not. I figure that's the closest thing to what we're dealing with: not a dog, a human, or anything that can be trained or reasoned with.
