I have a sneaking suspicion I could find the answer to this by going through the archives, but let's give me the benefit of the doubt and say I want to be as accurate as possible and allow for new people's responses, or else opinions evolving over time... any shinki out there who wish they were gods? Or the reverse, gods who wish they were shinki? Why do you think you got the better and/or worse deal?

Devil's advocates welcome; I may indulge in it a bit myself.

Hm... Is there a way to make him smarter?

Re: Voice

You'd have to work verrrry closely together, if you're not dating him. Sometimes just being the object of his affection will work, but... If he wants to be worthy of your own intelligence and your equal, he'll improve on his own.

But he has to care about making the change. That's the tricky part.

Eeh... I don't want him to have a crush on me either. We're supposed to be partners? Or at least working together?

Hm... I don't think I can make him care...

[He'd argue in favor of the partnership romance as a very productive one, but she probably doesn't want to hear it.]

The other option is to trick him into wanting to, but I don't know enough about the situation to make suggestions.

[He's 100% right about that.]

Tricking him seems a lot meaner though...

Well, I suppose you could just bring it up with him directly. Ask him why he's not acting the way you want.

If there's a reason, you could try to fix that.

Voice

[purehonkproject]

[Can you fix personalities like that...]

I'll try that.

Best of luck with it. Never an easy task.
