Emmy's not really the biggest people person, either. But they deal with a lot, anyway. They're surprisingly patient with everyone else! Ohhh, Paris! That's a great place for some inspiration! Good for her! I mean ALL the heroes! You've got one, too, you know~
I don't think so! Emmy might have something to say about it, but you'd have to ask them... but even they want to help you guys, so I don't think they'd mind too much.
Sorry, but that'd break the sponsor contract! You've gotta buy stuff through Amazoom to get them, or trade with other people.
then maybe i'll send them a message too. if i can figure out what to say and how to start things out. i guess the worst that can happen is it's a very short conversation can you blame me for trying? i'll have to see about buying stuff. i'm still deciding ...can i ask you something a little more personal?
If it makes you feel any better, they can be super awkward sometimes, too. So I think if you have questions, it'll help to be more direct with them? I totally don't blame you! If I hadn't made the cards, I'd be hyped to see them, too! If it weren't for the contract, I'd definitely send you a copy. Sure, hit me!
[ he thinks about this because it's not like nico is great at smalltalk, so either that would go well or it would go very poorly. ]
i can do direct. maybe a little too direct i'll figure something out it's a little weird to think there're already sponsorships in place, but that's kind of part of being a superhero too isn't it branding and endorsements and everything i get it, even if it's a little disappointing but thank you what do you guys get out of this if your team wins the competition? do you know yet?
Just don't worry about it too much, okay? Emmy prefers people to be themselves most of the time. The sponsors are what pays for where you guys are staying! So we have to be careful to make sure they don't get upset with us. ✨ Buuuut maybe someone's already got your card? It's random, so who knows? I'm pretty sure we get the same thing as you, though - to go home safe.
that's kind of exactly what i worry about yeah but ok are the sponsors why we have like infinite money too? not that i'm complaining if it's random i have no hope but i'll keep an eye out i guess ....is that all? does that mean that the losing leaders lose their worlds and they're trapped here too? what DOES it actually mean for losing teams?
It's probably not infinite, but they're pretty loaded, so might as well be! If they're gonna provide it, we might as well take advantage, right? Well, the competition thing is new to us, too, so there might be more to it that we haven't learned yet... but it's hard to say. We know about the losing teams, but there's no information about us specifically versus you guys, you know? So we're kind of just assuming that we count as part of the teams, no matter if we lose or win. So... same consequences.
better than when i didn't have money on me, yeah ...that's not very promising for anybody but yeah i get that you're learning about the same pace we are i guess more than anything i'm also wondering what happens if a team wins but there's someone else here from their same world on a different team would both people get to go back? would that be a possibility?
For sure! I'm used to being broke, too, so it's nice to not have to worry about it for a change. That's why we're still looking, so we can find a better answer for everyone and for ourselves. It sounds like they don't, but I sure hope both get to go back! I don't want to go back alone!
Even if it was an option, I think they'd prefer if we didn't? I think they like the team they have now. And so do I! No offense to Phoenix, but I think my team's the best~!
i mean i get it but... you have someone very important to me on your team and i'm not leaving without him so i think you and i are both gonna benefit from finding out that answer if two people from the same world can leave together even if one team doesn't win right?
That's exactly right! But I don't know if it'll be that simple when my friend's on a different team from both of us, you know? That's just one more reason I want to find a way to help as many of us get home safe as we can.
I don't think having more friends to help get through this makes it worse if we can find a way to get everyone home. It's great motivation, don't you think?
[ "sure, until you remember you may have to leave those friends behind."
reframe that, nico. ]
befriending people and finding a way to save everybody? yeah, of course it is i'd be surprised to find people here who would be selfish enough to ignore the fate of multiple worlds in the end but it'll depend on how the competition progresses
The better we know each other, the better we can work together to find the best solution! ✨ But you're right, it'll definitely depend on how the competition shakes out. Which depends on you guys! And I know you and Will are gonna do your best.
will's the social one, so i'm leaving that to him but i'll do what i can otherwise we kind of have a plan but...depends on points and stuff and just making sure there're no surprises like usual

that can't be good
i'm guessing they don't know you're here yet?

so it's even more awkward.
cool.
