Don't even joke about that. [That's a real possibility at this point, Sol doesn't know.]
I wouldn't say collateral's out of the question though, but maybe not this early. It depends on what you're thinking would work. There are certain things we can't do just yet, but...they're not impossible. So. Name your price, let's see what we can do.
Look. There are certain...negotiations we can make with the universe if you guys do certain tasks or accomplish certain things. If the universe deems it worthy, it can help you out. That's it. We also go back every week to get more information and can share with you when the time is right.
It's not the collateral I'm thinking of, but— If completing tasks will convince the universe to help us, then wouldn't it be beneficial for all of us to get as many of those done as possible?
"Easy way"— Are you kidding me? [HEY, THE UNIVERSE???] Someone's dead, and a kid is up for execution tomorrow. But it'll get mad if things aren't hard enough for us? What the fuck is wrong with the universe?
I've been asking myself that question for weeks. Haven't found an answer for that either. [Bitter? Bitter.]
I want to say maybe the universe didn't know how bad this would get either, but at the same time there were things set up here that makes me wonder otherwise. So now it's finding a way around those.
There's something to be said about timing, but I don't know whose clock they're working on. If they were really concerned about how the corruption was spreading you'd think they'd be working faster to help us help them.

[sol and lune should go on strike against the universe.]
Collateral. But that's out of the question, isn't it?

Her expression shifts, making it clear that she wasn't expecting that answer. Or, you know, any answer that wasn't a non-negotiable "no."]
Wait. What things are going talking about?

But a few at a time? Sure, why not.

[fuck! the! universe!]
I don't get what the point of bringing us here is if we're being set up for failure.
