*** HARMONIA has joined 710.35.155.17 <HARMONIA> Buongiorno, sorry I missed you. <HARMONIA> I'll happily get back to you as soon as I'm done with whatever business I'm on. <HARMONIA> Please leave a message.
[Giorno doesn't say things like "oh shit," but he's as close as he could conceivably get to saying "oh shit". His eyebrows are falling off his face.]
. . . Good for her.
[That's pretty badass, actually. He barely knows her, but he's never heard of anyone getting into a fight of that level with the Fourth God. After his own interactions with Elias, he thinks it's well deserved.]
I hope it didn't backfire too badly. The Fourth is petty.
[Or, he hopes Elias won't, anyway. He's counting on that being the case. He isn't sure what he'll do if Elias does— even if he rejects the gods, he knows full well he's not as strong as them.]
He wants her to come back, after all. But I think he's the one who's really fucked up.
Getting girls that mad? They're not really forgiving at that point, Idols or not.
[It's not meant to sound as gendered as it is, but idols are expected to have a pretty charitable and forgiving nature, which is what's on Souda's mind. He's pretty proud of her, too, though. Standing up to a god, all without crying in front of him.]
[He doesn’t understand the cultural context of idols, but he understands that there are some people who are very kind, right up until they’re pushed too far, and then there’s no going back. He respects that. If Makoto is one of those people, then Souda’s right: Elias has well and truly fucked up.]
From what I understand, he was barely a teenager when he was made into a god. He might be manipulative and cunning, but he’s still a child, and a child at the age when boys are most heavily conditioned to believe women are inferior. It’s a very . . . stereotypical mistake to make.

I don't think he'll hurt her, though.

You’re right about that.

We're all—
[He looks at Giorno, squints, and changes his mind.]
Most of us are like that... But even when I was that kind of guy, who didn't know better, girls...
Girls have always been terrifying. And a teenage girl with no boundaries... That kind of chick can end the world.
[... Weird way to phrase that.]
no subject
That's extreme.
[He says it mildly, even so. Curiosity tugs at the back of his tongue.]
I can't see Makoto ending the world, personally . . . but then, you said "no boundaries". I don't think I know any girl like that.
no subject
Yeah. Some kinda girl that would be, right?
You can forget I said that. It's not a very good story or anything.
