Well... seems like there's a few of you who are ready to sell us out.
[His voice is soft- not really angry, but there's a sinister lilt to it.]
And here I thought we were all growing to be one big, happy family. I can't say I'm fond of the necessity of weeding out spies in our city, but... listen, we're all in a flurry about this. We need to do something, and everyone wants a say in how we're supposed to move forward from here.
[Which has been a headache and a half for all of the gods. Sure, they get along in the grand scheme of things, but there's definitely a little clash of ideals going on, and frankly, Fear is tired of the arguing.]
So what I thought we'd do is to have you vote on who's in charge here. Who takes action and comes up with a game plan on how we're going to suss out what the Null are planning. Obviously, Sorrow wants to be our fearless leader, but his methods are a little... direct. Delight and Rage would probably have a little murder mystery party when they get back, Tranquility and Confusion- I'm not sure if they'd actually do anything at all, come to think of it.
[Christ, this is a mess.]
As far as Love and myself go... I can think of a few people I'd like to personally interrogate.
Anyway, cast your votes or ask your standard slew of questions. Yes, I realize that some of the dissenters will be voting, yeah I know that you all want to be in charge instead- there's probably a few of us who might bend our ears to you, but as we can't put a hundred people in charge, it's gonna be one of us.
[A pause.]
Sorry.
[Happy voting?]

And before you start with the, well maybe you should have thought of that- I'm also tired of those conversations.

[Frankly.]
I was being sarcastic. In all honesty, I like many of you- the fact that the sentiment isn't returned is understandable, but not exactly pleasant.

[Ask an honest question...]
I loved our previous hosts- more than anything. But I've never met creatures with sentience similar to ours before. And the way you process your emotions... it's unlike other species we've dealt with before. I wish I could learn more about you, but there never seems to be time for that.

...How would you learn more about us?

[He sounds a little amused.]
I ask questions, you answer. Of course, my nature allows me to have more of an understanding of your fear, which helps, but mostly I just learn things the old fashioned way.
