Ugh! Is he serious right now? I get it. I messed up giving Zeh the Heart of Netzach. But how does giving Jericho and his weird love cult the 8-Ball fix that? How does it fix anything?! We don’t know what the 8-Ball is capable of, if it’s still active somehow if it’s being used by the Bingo Cult to manipulate us—manipulate YOU—there’s so much we don’t know about it. I believed you, you know. That you were actually seeing the 8-Ball say things outside of its predetermined 20 answers. I know no one else did, but I trusted you. And now? You’ve handed over a clearly active 8-Ball to Jericho. JERICHO.
Ugh… Ugh. Ugh! Don’t get me wrong. I don’t distrust Jericho. I don’t dislike Jericho. But you have to agree he’s never been very… stable. Between his binge drinking days, post-break-up days, savior complex, and the fact he’s never used his real name around any of us. I guess, on the bright side, he at least doesn’t have the Blight in him anymore. Though, vis-à-vis, all that Blight is now burning up Julius’ insides, making him want to rip the sun out of the sky. And whose fault was that? Jericho’s. Joy is gone. Whose fault is that? Jericho’s!
And what if you’ve now put the Cult of Personality in danger, huh? It’s not just Jericho. You might have jeopardized Ranoma and Daichi’s safety as well. If ANYTHING happens to Ranoma, it won’t just be me coming after you, Capgras; it’d be every single former Cafe and Diner employee out there. And what are you even talking about, rebuilding the Cafe and Diner? What, do you want Jericho to somehow succeed, bring the 8 back, and then make some sort of Fifth Cafe and Diner we can all cozy up in? We knew the Cafe was coming to an end. We did what we had to do to keep our skin in the game. We can’t go back to how things were.
We’re supposed to be Shaka now.
Try and act like it.
