I don’t think a good type is a bad idea but i’m going to go back to advocating for a hearty chicken soup in that case.
I also think our only option is to continue our prior plan. Sure, everyone probably likes us a lot less now or at least is very confused, but also... we’ve barely met any cats in this game we didn’t create.
No matter what we do next, meeting people would be helpful, the only issue is that it’s taken a long time for us to get to this point and it will take even more time to do the tour.
But it also has a lot of advantages:
It’s the only way our half baked idea of undermining global god authority over tcps could work, as unlikely as that actually is to be a viable plan.
It lets us know what we might be in for in case of actual fighting.
It will actual let us know something tangible about who the other gods are.
Consider this: until now we have been basing all of our decisions and opinions about these gods entirely on how they or others describe their actions. Macaron is I’m pretty sure the only one whose behaviour we’ve actually seen, and even then not in much detail.
Ultimately anecdotes are useless to us because none of these people are unbiased or reliable and the only way we can actually know the character of any of these other players is by seeing how they treat their charges, isn’t that the point of a god? We’ve obviously shown everyone were incompetent, but as everyone else already knew the rules and isn’t constantly arguing with themselves, they’ve not been anywhere near as overt, and it’s vital information that we’ve just never had.
Any plan we make before doing this is going to be based on extremely incomplete and unreliable data, and doing this would hopefully help to curtail people repeatedly insisting that beings we’ve never actually seen perform any acts of any kind are pure evil based entirely on hearsay.
