[lune loves flowers and they appear to be sitting in front of the boutique with them today. they rest on the bench besides them as they wait for akane, and then they greet her warmly]
I can't control people, here. I can't set them to think of me a certain way, or feel a certain way.
[ ... When she's not in direct, god-mode control of other people's reality, how is she supposed to make them happy? How could people like her when she can't program them to? ]

Akane.
How are you faring?
no subject
[ People are dying, Lune! But that said, she plops down to sit, too. ]
But I'm still here, so I'm checking in, like you said.

For your power source and a cord for your phone - you will need to do something to lift the spirits and energize three other people.
It is unfortunately not something that I can grant to you freely. Favoritism is a rather worrisome thing.
no subject
Lift the spirits and energize...? I don't know how to do something like that.

Is this a foregone conclusion, or have you asked others?

I suppose I cannot help but be surprised. Even if I cannot speak for anyone else, you have made me happy.
no subject
Why? How?
no subject
I am happy each time I get to see you.
Do you believe it has to be a great task in order to bring joy to another?
no subject
I'm sure lots of people come to visit you.
no subject
And even then, the types of visits that I am able to receive now are very different from the ones I was able to before.
For one, we are able to have a conversation.
I like hearing what you think and feel.
no subject
I guess if you're some kind of spirit, that makes sense... [ that's her running theory, anyway. ]
no subject
For many years, I was not able to possess a will of my own.

no subject
Even then - I cannot help but wonder why you neglected to answer my question.
Do you not believe you are capable of bringing happiness to others as you are, as you have done with me?
no subject
I can't control people, here. I can't set them to think of me a certain way, or feel a certain way.
[ ... When she's not in direct, god-mode control of other people's reality, how is she supposed to make them happy? How could people like her when she can't program them to? ]
no subject
What do you think of people who are out of your control?
Are they difficult? Hateful? Generous? Kind?
no subject
[ Difficult to control, haha, get it........ ]
no subject
Humans are odd, aren't they? So full of complex, varied emotion....
no subject
It's much better when I'm in control of things, you know...? This kind of thing is totally jarring for me.
no subject
then wondering:]
Are you unhappy with it? Is it hard for you to learn?
