They opened the battlefield chat at the sa ti, the channel everyone said was already drowning in blood.
Dawn Cicada: SmokeTune!
Dawn Cicada: BS Rita, you are vile!
Dawn Cicada: Say sothing, SmokeTune. Got the courage to run away, but no courage to answer?
Dawn Cicada: Don’t think I don’t know you’re trying to get yourself killed on purpose.
Dawn Cicada: You think BS Rita is a good person? She ate my Vine!
BS Crab: So among Vineborne, does eating soone’s Vine an sothing special?
Dawn Cicada: Your na is ugly.
BS Crab: My na is ugly? Then what are you going to do when you see BS SmokeTune?
Dawn Cicada: Are you provoking ?
Winter Sea Frenzied Shark: As long as a Vineborne’s Vine is not fully destroyed, it can regrow. So letting soone eat your Vine is the most solemn and sincere pledge between Vineborne. The more Vine they allow the other party to consu, the deeper the affection.
Lania Kaia Fat Goose: I’ve heard hints about Vineborne being too intense and obsessive with their emotions, but isn’t this a bit too fast?
TingoJE: That’s BS Rita’s speed for you.
Dawn Cicada: Disgusting!
Rita silently scrolled past over a hundred lines of Dawn Cicada’s ranting.
TingoJE: Did I read that right? Sea Pony beca the BS mascot?
BS Crab: Yeah. Why?
Marmang Lulumi: You did it after all. You didn’t intentionally let her kill you just for this, did you?
BS Crab: I’d like to say I did, but honestly, I was out of options at the ti.
TingoJE: So why that foul mouthed seahorse of all things?
Marmang Lulumi: If your divine talent caused suffering to every living being who stayed near you for long, if everywhere you lingered accumulated small disasters, then you too would want the only creature who never abandoned you to receive the best gift possible.
Rita’s finger froze. What was Crab’s divine talent called?
Her pocket watch was not high level enough to inspect it, or what it showed might not be accurate. She turned to Smoke Tune and asked directly.
Smoke Tune actually knew a bit. I only heard it’s called Solitary Beast. I don’t know what exactly it does.
It sounded like a long story.
Lania Kaia Fat Goose: What did she give you all? You joined BS without even a fight?
Dawn Cicada: Why isn’t SmokeTune a leader?
BS Crab: ...Maybe you want to know what BS Rita offered her.
BS Crab: Every weekend she’ll take her to other worlds for a stroll. All BS SmokeTune has to do is help make BS more beautiful.
Dawn Cicada: BS Rita!! You trash!!
Rita’s brows tightened. And people said Vineborne personalities weren’t annoying.
Nothing was ever good enough for them.
More flaming ca. Rita had been in the Divine Ga for a long ti, but she had never seen Dawn Cicada this active in chat. She suspected Dawn Cicada had spoken more in these few hours than in the previous centuries combined.
Lania Kaia Flowering Edge: She’s really not decent. After she dragged Mistblade away, seventy percent of Lania Kaia’s Moonhares vanished.
Lania Kaia Peach Crown: Owls are slightly better. We just finished counting. We lost half.
Lania Kaia Mute: What did Maple Syrup say?
Lania Kaia Peach Crown: Maple Syrup said she wants to blow Pine Bloom and BS Rita into dust.
Lania Kaia Flowering Edge: What about Wither?
Lania Kaia Syntax: Wither locked himself in his room. He won’t open the door for anyone.
Tiger Ear Quex: Thank you. I feel better already.
BS Crab: Do you want to know what she offered BS Mistblade?
Lania Kaia Flowering Edge: What?
BS Crab: The Holand You Can Never Return To.
Lania Kaia Flowering Edge: Mistblade!!! Take with you!!!
Lania Kaia Burn Cup: Seven million! Who cares about joyrides, the Moonhares won!
Lania Kaia Maple Syrup: What did she give Pine Bloom?
BS Crab: That involves BS secrets. I can’t say.
Lania Kaia Maple Syrup: Pine Bloom!
Lania Kaia Flowering Edge: Mistblade!
Dawn Cicada: SmokeTune!
BS Rita: Wrong. It’s BS Pine Bloom, BS Mistblade, BS SmokeTune.
Dropping that bombshell, Rita slamd the battlefield chat shut.
From the corner of her eye she saw Smoke Tune close her screen as well.
Nothing worth reading anyway, Rita said. Stay here for now. I’ll take you to pick a room. Once you’re familiar with the world, you can choose where to build your ho. Or stay in hotels around BS. You probably don’t like staying in one place too long?
Smoke Tune’s eyes curved with warmth. I’m starting to like it here.
There were countless rumors about BS Rita. Even she had heard many.
During the Chaotic Blocks event, BS Rita’s back and forth with the gift box NPC had been recorded and translated by gossip loving players. The logs even sold on the exchange and were bestsellers.
Smoke Tune once thought BS Rita was like Dawn Cicada. Confidence mixed with arrogance easily turned into a desire to control everything.
But now, she saw that BS Rita’s nature was gentler, broader, more able to accept differences.
She read their needs from their personalities. She accepted differences in ideology and temperant. She knew when to give space and when to offer structure.
Trailing Rita up the stairs, Smoke Tune finally opened her private ssages and replied to Dawn Cicada.
BS SmokeTune: When Dawn shatters BS, I’ll co ho. Until then, let live happily for a while, alright?
BS SmokeTune: I won’t help BS, but if you want to be happy, please don’t ask anything that would hurt .
Dawn Cicada: You didn’t even care about how I’ll replace my Vine.
BS SmokeTune: She will prepare sothing for you. And you will get it. I know you won’t lose.
...
