He calls the town Concordia.
I don't suppose you speak Latin. Briefly, it means 'Harmony.'
He wants to provide a unified community for monsters.
But he also wants it to provide a unified front from which to oppose the gods.yeah, i definitely don't.
that seems...
well. i suppose i can see why he would want to do that, but it seems like there are a lot of ways it could go wrong.

So can I.
And apparently, so can he.
He said he wanted someone who would 'speak against him.'
So here I am. seems like a good sign.
but you're still not sure?
but you're still not sure?
Well...
I've never been fond of politics.
But it is a generous offer.
Henry's warned me about the winters here.
There's a saying about beggars being choosers.This still looks pretty bad. You spend enough time recovering on your couch.
So far s'not seeming like I could avoid that even if I tried.
i suppose i can understand that.
...and that too, for that matter. might as well take what you can get.
if you're really not comfortable with the idea, though, then you're always welcome to stay here.
[As if Ginko actually has room to house someone else, but why would that ever stop him.]

[Oh my God, Ginko.]
I'm sure my discomfort is more of a personal problem than a justified concern.
But thank you.
I do appreciate the offer.alright. well, it still stands if you ever do need it.
in the meantime, good luck with the town situation.

Apologies for the sudden message, but
Would you be interested in coming out here for a visit?I'll send you the specifics.
I'll tell you ahead of time that it's a very quiet place.
Though I don't imagine it will stay that way for much longer.well, seems like all the more reason to stop by now. might as well appreciate the quiet while it's there.
You should try harder.
[Honestly, Ema doubts he's even trying a little. Ginko has too much of a self sacrificing streak.]

'N how would I do that?
[He frowns at her, his tail giving a slight, weak flick from where it's hanging over the side of the couch.]

[Ginko makes his way to Concordia as soon as he's got the directions; it takes him a bit to find their arranged meeting place, but once he does he's quick to look around, his face lighting up when he catches sight of a familiar rainbow nymph.]
Hey, Epsilon.
Hey, Epsilon.
[One thing about being what he is now, there's no such thing as 'inconspicuous.'
He isn't always the most comfortable with it, but then again, he has nothing to hide; even the reasons for it to give him pause don't exist any more.
And he's finally getting used to that.
He gives a wry smile.]
Welcome to Concordia.
[He'd bow, but that might be a bit much, even for him.]

[Ginko smiles and tucks his hands in his pockets, glancing around at the surrounding buildings again.]
...Seems like a nice place. I'm glad you asked me to come out here; probably wouldn't have thought to otherwise.

Stop just... jumping into danger whenever you see someone getting hurt! Or at least take stock of the situation first. A little caution never hurt anybody.
[Ema's aware she's being extremely hypocritical, but she's had better luck than Ginko, at least.]

I do take stock of the situation. 'S what asking people wha's going on is for.
[Ginko, no.]
[Ginko, no.]
[It's still a bit rough, but Norman is already taking active steps to improve its appearance--and appeal. Epsilon understands this well enough in concept, but really, it's all a bit beyond him.]
It seems a lot of people haven't really thought to--yet.
[And Epsilon has no problem with that. Which probably surprises no one.]
Norman is very interested in changing that, though.
[That said...]
This isn't a sales pitch, mind. All things being equal, my preferences are probably not the same as yours.

Of course.
[He gives a soft huff.] I suppose it probably has more appeal for me now than it will with a greater population. Don't know if you feel the same or not.
