[A morally reversed Setsuna has a major announcement to make.]

Sorry I left without waking you, Kira, but I had things to do. I can't just keep lounging around with you. I don't think much is getting accomplished this way.

In fact, this whole fighting God thing is kinda stupid, don't you guys think? He's our creator and deserves a little more respect than that. I've been going about this the wrong way from the beginning. So, Rosiel, if you'll have me at your side, I'm willing to help you now. I want to. I want nothing more than to stand at your side!

[So, yeah, all of his stubborn determination? Now belongs to the other side. Setsuna wants to fight for the God that would abandon them. He thinks God is right - if your creations mess up, kill them all and start over. Rosiel is the most sympathetic creature in all of creation, and he will defend him and protect him until the end. Ready?]

Of course, we have the City deities keeping us from the real war, but that doesn't mean we can't make them see reason. [Wicked grin. Also, no desire to hold back for fear of messing something up or causing trouble he can't fix. That's just not very important right now.]

I'd recommend staying out of the way until he's dealt with.

[These pesky kids.]

[beyourarmy]

That's just rude. Stop trying to tell everyone what to do. Let them learn the hard way.

[sympathyforme]

Look who's talking.

I'd prefer he doesn't learn the hard way, he pays for half our rent.

[This day just can't get more ridiculous.]

[beyourarmy]

He's the guy that hired you?

And don't worry. The rent's all yours, now. I'm not going back, Kira, in case you haven't figured it out yet.

[Yeah, you've been dumped. How many different ways does he have to say it?]

[sympathyforme]

I'll have to take double-shifts.

Will you share the foot of the bed with Katan?

[beyourarmy]

Good luck with that.

Never. I would just find my own place. It's better than Rosiel thinking my loyalties lay with you.

[sympathyforme]

Thank you.

You'll get lonely.

[beyourarmy]

I'll find another way around it.

Or...you could join us, if you're that desperate for my company.

[sympathyforme]

Don't be silly, Messiah. That's not my side.

[beyourarmy]

Then you'll just have to make due without me.

[valentineluke]

Yes, I am. Is there a problem with that?

[beyourarmy]

Hardly. I just wonder if you realize the kind of guy you hired, that's all. I hope he's doing a good job.

[valentineluke]

Not to worry, I'm in Underground's deep.

[sympathyforme]

Lucky you.

[valentineluke]

You don't have to stay up there. From the looks of things, it's doubtful he'll get far. Near impossible to accomplish anything during a curse plague, too many variables at play.

(Private)

[sympathyforme]

You underestimate his stubbornness, willfulness, rashness and tendency to feel guilty.

Re: (Private)

[valentineluke]

By staying, you run the risk of being cursed yourself.

(Private)

[sympathyforme]

What, it's catching?

Re: (Private)

[valentineluke]

When a curse plague is in effect, yes. You may have been spared today, but tomorrow maybe another story. Also, there's no telling what may strike you instead.

[sympathyforme]

...

[If this curse reversed Setsuna's morality... Kira had a hard time imagining that happening to him. Morals. Heh.]

This one already struck me either way.
