[Pollution is sitting on the ground next to a printer that's putting out page after page. It's hooked up to his laptop, which he's poking at and has power because he says it does.]

Everyone tries so hard to reverse progress. [taptaptap at the keyboard] Clean coal really was a brilliant idea, I'll have to thank Sable next time I see him. Why the name of a thing makes such a difference, I'll never understand.

So I have your permission to keep coming, then?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Well, you do not need my permission to come here, I am afraid. If I ran this place, you would certainly not have it.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

At least you realize your limits.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

A goddess must recognize her limits if she is to properly carry out her duties.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

Which duties are those?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Protecting her world and her people.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

From what?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

From demons, darkness, and any who would harm them.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

Have you ever thought of letting them fight their own battles?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Oh, they do, most of the time. But when it comes to demons, there is little that humans can do. Demons exist outside their full knowledge or even existence, and the mere presence of demons can sink humans into a cursed zone, which renders them into stone. There is nothing they can do, then. I merely step in when it is something that humans cannot handle.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

Your demons sound interesting. Are there many in your world?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Quite a few, especially recently.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

Any particular reason?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

It is due to the return of the Lord of Darkness, Yami, the source and master of all demons.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

Shouldn't you go after him instead of the demons?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Certainly, but the trouble is that I cannot yet find him.

[oilyhands.livejournal.com]

Well, good luck, I suppose.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm sure~
