[ As much as Diablo is not in love with the idea of being involved with this at all, at least there's a choice this time. That's the first important thing. It's not ideal, though typical, that he's even in a position to make this choice at all, or that it actually strikes him as a wiser choice than staying uncommitted and essentially sitting around just waiting to be forced into something far worse later.

He knows it would happen that way, too; seems better to choose the lesser of two potential evils while he still has enough freedom to, in that case. It's... something to think about. To figure out. ]

I mean, all right, I'm thinking about it -- ain't no small thing to say yes to, though.
