It can be stressful at times. My sisters have such strong and diverse personalities and they're hard to juggle and balance, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.
They did a whole slew of terrible deeds, from kidnapping children and killing them to neglecting their people and making them destitute for their own gains. Name any terrible thing a lord could do.
My sisters and I have abilities that the average human doesn't. It took much effort, but we managed to defeat them.
[They're either a hit or a miss in history (mostly a miss), so he think he can see just how impressive this one must have been, even without having the full picture.]
...So did ya replace them then? Or did you dismantle the entire system?

I am usually more observant than this.
[ probably. ]
One is my older sister.
no subject
Is she into stories or something?
[one and four....... lavi refuses to judge anyone on their names when he's had 49 of them, but he, as always, is Interested.]
Or are you trying to teach her something new?
no subject
It isn't stories. She's... the most knowledgeable of all of us, the most learned. I want to be on her same level.
[ she wants to be acknowledged. ]
I want to be of the utmost help, but... I suppose I can't anymore.
no subject
Has your sister ever beat Satan before?
no subject
No...? [ ... well. ] It may depend on your point of view.
no subject
Yeah? Was it a Satan like -- super into giving parties, ruler of hell kind of Satan?
no subject
Nothing like that. None of us have met any kind of Satan.
no subject
lavi nods thoughtfully,]
Well, besides you, right? Since you're gonna meet Satan at his party. Plus, if you beat him, then you'll be the only one who's done that too.
That's something that'd definitely impress her.
no subject
... I'm not so certain of that.
[ does she really want to go to this party? it sounds so fake to her. ]
no subject
lavi finally walks around the stack so he can face four properly and not talk to her like a disembodied head.]
Your sister must be pretty hard to rattle.
no subject
thanks for making this conversation a little less weird, lavi. ]
Oh, yes, she's very composed. She's the serious type. Wise and dependable. She's my role model.
no subject
Think I see the resemblance. [four is also serious, in a cute way] Are you the youngest?
no subject
there's a brief second when she brightens, at being told she could be like one, before she shakes her head. ]
I'm in the middle.
no subject
...What's it like having siblings? I've been on my own for pretty much all my life, 'sides my Gramps.

no subject
[he's imagining a group of fours, especially at the mention of strong personalities]
Bet you're all a force to be reckoned with when you're united.
no subject
We wouldn't have been able to unseat all those corrupt lords if we weren't.
no subject
[HELLO? this lore drop]
How'd that happen? What'd they do? How'd you beat them?
no subject

[DEMOCRACY?]
no subject
[ democracy... what a funny concept. ]
no subject
[he's trying to imagine four wearing a king's crown and a scepter, you know, like the ruler she is]
no subject
[ it was a short-lived rule, considering she's here. there were no crowns or scepters. ]
There's no need to be amazed.
no subject
[he's interested... he's really interested...]
Plus, you're the first ruler-type I've ever made friends with.
