Tiberius Exuro's Links
The whole situation surrounding Exuro is... deeply unfortunate. They are glad he was able to keep his wits about him when they met and that he's driven to succeed no matter the odds, but the future ahead of him is deeply trying. Of course, that's hardly anything new for him, they suppose...
LMAOOOOOOOOO you got killed by fellmund and a pikachu LMAOOOOOOO too funny dude (she is saying this while robbing him)
They are PRETTY sure they should've killed him. He's a primo danger to lil old Dicro, isn't he? C'moooon, just a little stabby stab?
He's added a surprising amount of spice to the Competition, she has to admit. She wasn't sure about the merit of putting Seraye into the Competition just for some retconned plot point's sake, but it really paid off. Even better, he hates Ignis about as much as she does, and how she loves to see Ignis suffer...
"hey i know we're technically in the same alliance and all so i'm really sorry about becoming besties with a guy that has tortured and killed you more than once. but we're cool right?" (dicro crosses out his entire apology letter, puts his head in his hands, then fucks off to maple manor in hopes that they'll just conveniently avoid crossing paths ever again)
The boss man himself! Exuro slipped him a few coins to set up some targets long ago, and they've been the broest of bros ever since. He even bought him off of Arella, and people don't just do that for Chillies! Langer is wholly devoted to Exuro down to having practically a little Chilly cosplay going on. It kinda reminds him of his old life... as much as he can remember it, anyway.
Seraye's boyfriend-slash-bodyguard who she hired a long time ago to help protect the Doll Shop. This proved to be a pretty good choice, considering how many megalomaniacal gods and godlike beings showed up at her door to cause problems on purpose. Even after becoming an immortal deity she continues paying him, especially since he and his staff keep getting blown up even without interference from the Test Reality. Though she trusts him wholeheartedly - he's proven his competency many times, after all - she can't help but worry about him. She worries less every day, though, and she wonders how she ought to feel about the cause being more "he's died so many times that he's probably fine" than anything...
There's a certain sort of shame in looking at Exuro. She doesn't deny her actions; in past cycles she was decidedly more callous and sadistic, and no number of retcons from Opine can take away the reality of what transpired. Furthermore, she continues to keep the same sort of company she did back then, so it isn't as though she's turned over a new leaf and become a good guy worthy of forgiveness. Similarly, should they encounter each other in a Competition again... well, a death game is a death game. She'll try to tamp down all the torture, but it is what it is. She holds no animosity toward him - she respects him, even - but she neither expects nor is offended by that sentiment not being reciprocated.
