TEXT

[kingmakereffect]

If you have something to ask the Kingmaker about over text, this is where it goes! The Kingmaker will respond to text messages as soon as he's available. You will most likely get a text back very quickly.

Your smartphones will only connect to the Kingmaker. There is no option to send a text to anyone else, instead it will connect automatically to his phone.

Comments are screened for privacy; no looking at each other's private texts without permission, after all.

What's within my power to do. You are asking me for a miracle and all. It's not like those are easy to pull off.

[goodforsomething]

If the world was destroyed, how are you even supposed to be doing this to begin with?

[kingmakereffect]

I'm sure you've noticed that you're not all on the same timeline with relation to one another...? Wasn't that one of the points in the meeting last week?

[goodforsomething]

Yeah, it came up. I figured that had more to do with all the different worlds myself. You saying you've got a time machine?

[kingmakereffect]

I'm saying that time doesn't really matter to me. There's a difference.

[goodforsomething]

But you can only do it once. Maybe twice.

What made you pick the people you did? All of time in all our worlds and you got us.

[kingmakereffect]

...Why wouldn't I have chosen you? You're interesting people.

[goodforsomething]

There's a lot of interesting people.

[kingmakereffect]

Yes, there are.

But you want to know what makes this set of you special?

[goodforsomething]

That's why I asked.

[kingmakereffect]

It's not due to anything specific that you all did, or nothing that all of you didn't do. There isn't any one thing you all have in common.

[goodforsomething]

You're making it sound like you just picked us all up totally randomly.

[kingmakereffect]

Would having a reason make you feel better?

[goodforsomething]

Depends what it'd be, I guess. Knowing this setup it'd probably just piss me off more.

You know, you really undercut yourself with all this. Everyone's talking about how the whole apocalypse thing must've been a lie now.

[kingmakereffect]

They can believe what they want.

I know what's true and what isn't. If they have difficulty understanding or believing it, that isn't my problem.

[goodforsomething]

Whatever. I'm sure you're gonna get what you want anyway. It's between a bunch of near-strangers and whoever they've got back home, someone'll like those odds.

How come you can save another person now? Did something change?

[kingmakereffect]

Maybe the circumstances changed. Or maybe my willingness to utilize them did.

[goodforsomething]

Doesn't matter on our end, right?

[kingmakereffect]

Got it in one.

[goodforsomething]

I guess it doesn't matter to me either. I appreciate you saying you'd try, but it ain't worth the risk. I couldn't do that to one of them.
