“what wait why”

“the world is broken and the people in charge aren’t doing anything, so we’re gonna do something for them”

“……………….RIGHT?!”

*hasty statements of agreement*

“exactly. so, i’ve come to the conclusion that i’m the mage of the prophecy. and guess what. i choose myself. now let’s go.”
