WEEK 2
[From the day you arrived on the planet, and blinking, stepped into the sun. There's more to see than can ever be seen, and more to do than can ever be done. Yet, still, the whole thing seems...monotonous. Surely there must be some excitement, some showmanship, some sort of plot twist that could keep this show moving onward?

Welcome to week 2, gents.]

Maybe. ...Maybe on that motive. [She hugs herself.] I know there are a lot of ways he could have gotten that kind of ability, but I'm still worried that someone might be in danger.

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

Ah... [That...gives her pause.] You know someone who...could grant wishes, is that it?

[rockthistown]

!!

...Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

[oh sweetheart]

I didn't realize it was something you were keeping secret. You said it so plainly, after all.

[rockthistown]

I'm also worried about the people in here! He was talking about murder!

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

I'm not saying you aren't. It is a lot to offer a person, with... I understand your fears, Hime-san. Don't worry.

[rockthistown]

I hope nobody takes it. There are a lot of ways to get a wish, but most people's wishes can be made under their own power, I think. With no murder!

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

That is true. [She's speaking gently, while she discards the eggs Hime burned.] But you must keep in mind...that there are also wishes that can never be met by personal strength alone. If you forget that, you'll only be hurt.

[rockthistown]

But you don't know what those are until you try!

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

[D-ne shakes her head.]

Not in every case. If that wish defies the laws of the world... It's undoubtedly true that some "wishes" can be grasped within a person's lifetime with some work and endurance. But not all. And the ones who absolutely know that, they are the ones you have to watch out for.

Do you understand, Hime-san?

[rockthistown]

Um... Not really?

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

[She sighs.]

There are people who know no matter what they do, they can't have their hearts' deepest desires. It's impossible. These people are the ones who're most easily tempted.

[rockthistown]

...I know.

[She looks at the floor and sighs.]

I just hope everything ends up okay.

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

[D-ne is silent for a moment and then rests a hand atop Hime's head. Comforting...?]

You have a good heart. Come on, I'll help you with your breakfast.

[rockthistown]

[yay headpats] Okay. We have to clean everything first, right?

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

Yes, but you're just going to be using it again, so it can be a quick rinse more than anything else. Alright?

[rockthistown]

Okay. [She pouts and gets the pan ready again, putting in more vegetable oil and going for the eggs in the fridge.] Why do we have to let eggs get to room temperature first, anyway?

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

I actually have no idea? Cooking is a strange science that I am only barely decent at.

[rockthistown]

Really? But you seem pretty good so far.

[lifegoalsorwifegoals]

Oh, there are very many who are better. I'm nothing special.
