Another for the bandwagon... SPOILERS for ROTG.

I'm sorry, what? See, I'm not sure I can... Believe in you, doing this after you were so sure you weren't going to care about me.

Speaking of believing, what's with this username? That's the old me.

Now? I'm a Guardian. Which... Also means I can't exactly tie myself down to one kid. Hey, compared to me? Yeah, you're a kid. But, you give it a couple of months, okay? And if you're still interested, well, we can talk.

And what, exactly, does being a guardian entail that you cannot stay with your writer?

[unbelieved]

Well... In my case? It's about fun. Which, you know, yeah, this is great for that. For her. There's plenty of other kids out there who need to get their kicks somehow. Plus, with half the world in winter? I'm a pretty busy guy.

[cursedtosleep]

But, perhaps you could take this opportunity to bring fun here to other children, Jack.

[unbelieved]

Hmmm...

Look, Aurora... It's Aurora, right? I like the idea, I do. I'm just not sure it'll work out. I mean, I work on a global scale. This place only represents a bit of that.

And then there's how it would work in an actual game, where most people have stopped believing.

[cursedtosleep]

You know better than that, Jack. So long as one child believes, there is still hope.

And I think, you might be able to reach more than you think. There are many children here who could use your protection. Even if you do work on a global scale, don't the children here deserve as much attention as the others?

[unbelieved]

Right! Oh, no, totally, it's just... You know, the problem with the Big Four was that they didn't really hang out with kids. If I'm going to be a Guardian, I wan to be there for as many kids as possible.

I'll give you a point there, though. This place may be all about having fun, but from what I hear, that's starting to fade. Huh, maybe you're right about this.

[cursedtosleep]

And you're just the sort of guardian to bring the fun to this place, Jack! I'm sure you can do it.

[unbelieved]

I guess I'll give it a shot.

Thanks, Aurora.

[cursedtosleep]

Not at all, Jack. I know a little something about magic. [She winks.]

[unbelieved]

I guess you would, huh?

[cursedtosleep]

Enough of it. Has your writer found a place for you to go? Or will you roam arund here helping children hen you can?

[unbelieved]

She's considering some options.

[cursedtosleep]

Oh? Like where?

[unbelieved]

A castle called Paradisa or a city in a bubble.

[cursedtosleep]

Well, I wish you the very best of luck in either place, Jack.

[unbelieved]

Thanks, Aurora.
