I could pick between two - but Sloth-san was nice enough to help me figure out which one I would want. So it's Dreamweaver, and I can summon any weapon I want for one use.
It didn't come in a text? He just held my hand and then I just... had it.
Maybe because I earned it through murder? But it definitely felt different.
[he rolls his shoulder experimentally, as if stretching out the muscles and remembering the feeling]
But yeah - I asked for something that could help in a fight if it really comes to that with the monster. Sloth-san seemed surprised that I wanted to fight it, though.
[ . . . ]
And I think I'm gonna talk to Greed-san again, after the meeting today. They could tell from my emotions I wanted to say something when we were talking, but... well, I don't want to talk about us versus them until after we get all the information.

Was there something else?
[the trailed off 'and']
no subject
I just felt really scared after.
no subject
... you didn't want to text me?
[though he does get that takeru even admitting this is probably something]
no subject
[ it's already frustrating how often mineo has seen him in weaker moments. ]
no subject
[it's easy enough for him to admit that even as he keeps slowly working his way through his first donut]
.... and I know you can handle yourself. [so he's not doubting takeru either] But I still don't like the idea of you being alone through that.
[it's just an offer]
no subject
he picks up another donut and sets it in front of mineo. ]
no subject
But I picked these out for you...
[why is he being given one]
no subject
[ he sounds annoyed that mineo isn't accepting it? ]
no subject
[he likes sweets but he doesn't inhale them like takeru??? but he'll take it because he doesn't want takeru to be annoyed?]
no subject
[ he is starting on his third donut. ]
no subject
[is this some kind of weird bonding ritual
but he'll at least mostly finish up his first donut so he can start on the second one]
Anyway, just text me next time if you want to.

Sloth-san gave me a power in exchange for surviving trial. It was either that or an item from home.
no subject
What was the power?

[ since the texts delete themselves after you receive them. ]
But that could be useful.

[he did promise takeru he'd wait]
no subject
I was asking them something, and they said I was just trying to fish which of the Avatars we could still trust.
[ he sounds a little annoyed, but also kind of amused. ]
no subject
[if he's honest]
How'd that go?
no subject
[ it is not a surprise that gluttony would sell them for a corn chip ]
But they also cut a deal with me that they would probably also betray, but it's still something.
