Will you or won't you

[attheclocktower]

Characters: Anybody and everybody
Setting: Floor 1, before noon
Summary: Riki's offered a way to help keep the Tower powered a little longer. Obviously this is going to cause a lot of discussion and debate so let's CONSOLIDATE
Warnings: Nothing as of yet. Possibly eventually, so keep an eye on subject lines and I 'll try to change to reflect any developments

[No doubt Riki's announcement would be polarizing, but the instructions themselves were clear: Floor 1 at noon if you want to help out. And if you want to meet people, try to talk them in or out of it? Or hell, maybe even just talk about the revelation on who is behind those explosions? Well, this is as good a place as any for that too.

Just remember to be careful near the staircase]

He can be angry with me all he likes. But this tower will be there for him to return to.

[scentofmakai]

I guess that makes everything worth it.

[warriorscribe]

If the alternative is stranding him there while we run out of power too early, yes, it does.

[scentofmakai]

Even if that's true. Don't get killed. I won't forgive you if you do.

[warriorscribe]

So you've said. I don't think I will. Riki would be at quite the risk if he promised we wouldn't die and yet we did. If there is any danger, he will protect us.

[scentofmakai]

That's a lot of faith to put in him.

[warriorscribe]

Didn't what I just said give him personal reason not to let us die? I do have faith in him, yes. He's protected us and given us direction in times of danger before. But I have more than faith to claim.

[scentofmakai]

I don't like relying on even people who have reasons to help me unless I can completely trust them. You and I are different kinds of people, which is probably why you're going and I can't.

[warriorscribe]

...It's probably for the best. One of us is always right, this way.

*Hopefully, nothing bad happens to the tower in his absence.* Look after Yotsuba. Ensure she doesn't wander too near the tower's central column.

[scentofmakai]

I promise I will. [You didn't even need to tell him.]
